DIED.
Close the door gently,
Bride the breath,
Our little earth angel


Is sleeping with death.
sBATE.-Died, in Edgeheld, Wednesday, Nov.
8, 1871, at u NJ, in her sixth year. BELL child Of
W. L. and Julia Bate. BELL was a lovely child,
musical as a bird, and playful a lamb. From
the first her affection alarming, yet, at
times hope cheered the heart, and we thought
she would recover. Even when the sky is bright
est, some wild dread Of grief will hover nigh (;
s'there is a lingering shade-a fear that clouds
will come again" So in this case-the sunlight
of hope lasted but a moment and disappeared
forever. The Reaper came-the flower faded.
The morning breeze dallies with the rose and
kisses away the dewdrOps; the petals fall and
their sweetness is waited away. So here The
spirit fingered, trembling, then flies to the bosom
Of her Saviour, and is happy forever.
II want to be an angel, F" like her.
That mOther-whO knows her sOTrOw? She
seems to hear her child-she looks to see her.
"a little vacant garment,
Or a shining treSs Of hair,
Tells her heart in tones of anguish
Her darling is not there"
And that father. For him there is no watching
at the window, no meeting at the door.
"But reft of joy, tits sweet to teach
The heart TO hush its grief and-dream."
All no, not dream. Though our heart is
crushed and bleeding, yet we know that little
BELL enjoys that

So he showed her his palace and mado bluff
And said she might live there; but wickedly
Kitty told told him she'd long ago made rash

In claiming his right to fair Kitty's affec-

Could pay for a cabin to give her protection.
Half vexed at his boldncss, but calm i'll trice,
She curteied, and thanked him, and blush

Demurely repeated her sage aunt's advice,
"Not to marry q hog for the sake of his pcnl"
The next was farmer, young, bashful and

He feared the bold wooers who oamo from

But the flush on his cheek, and the light in

Soon kindled flame in the bosom of Kitty.

But, darling, come share it with mo, if you

ARTIFICIAL TEETH.
REYNOLDS IMPROVEMENT

fTlHOSE who have lost several Natural
j. Teeth. and have been advised to part
with remaining sound ones, as the first step
towards obtaining artificial substitutes, are
requested, before submitting to practice,
cruel in itself and often unnecessarily per-
formed, to convince themselves of it's fallacy,
by looking closely into matter of 30 much
Importance.
The above Improvement was designed to re-
sist SO deplorable practice, and after tho
rough test Of more than three years, is found
capable of accomplishing what no other sys-
1t is now possible to obtain partial cases,
which will cave for years Natural Teeth, and
be at the same time reliable in every respect.
An invitation is hereby given to such az
feel interested to call at our Operating
Rooms, and examine duplicate specimens Of

FoRr Scorr, KANSAS, june 3, 1871,
NJ. Editor This is new town
about five years old, and contains,
| should judge, about four thousand
inhabitants. A resident of the place
would state the population much larger,
While il was the terminus of the two
railroads now passing through here-thc
Missouri River, Fort Scott and Gulf Rail-
road, and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
Railroad-it was very busy place, and
grew so rapidly that it is now ahead Of
the country, and is said to be dull. There
are, think, more stores here than in the
whole county Of Rutland, and | can
hardly see where customers are found to
support them; yet they all appear to be
doing something.
There is plenty Of coal underlying the
town, which will probably make man.
ufacturing place of it. There is also a
gas well, called here the Burning Well"
about two miles from town, which is sim
liar to the wells of Erie, Penn, and Con-
neaut, Ohio, which produces gas in sufii-
cicnt quantities both to light the towns
and to furnish fuel for a large number Of
engines used for propelling machinery.
There are several Vermonters here.
Mr.. Arson +. Parmelec, the managing
proprietor of the Wilder House, is Bris-
toll boy, and he and his wife, who is n
Vermont girl, both "know how TO keep a
hotel"
Bed bugs are found in this country, in
the checks and seams of cotton wood trees
growing in the woods, which goes to show
that they are not wholly domestic ami
NAL, but as cotton wood lumber is used
here extensively for building, they soon
become domesticated, but Mrs. p, has
banished them from the Wilder Houss,
and one can 90 to bed here, without fear
Of being dragged out by them in the
night. The beds and rooms of the Wilder
House are clean, and the table is supplied
with the delicacies of the season and the
cookery is faultless. ] would advise all
Vermonters visiting Fort Scott to stop at
this house, for Mr.. Parmelee will make
them feel at home, and do all that he can
to make their stay pleasant
The country about here for a radius Of
fifteen or twenty miles is very poor, being
underlaid by sand rock, which in some
places is but few inches from the sur
face, the everything soil being too thin to
produce good crops.
There is a national cemetery about two
miles from town, where four hundred
union and one hundred rebel soldiers are
buried. Being here decoration day, at
tended the services at this cemetery and
was surprised and indignant to see the
ladies decorate alike the graves of the
union and rebel soldiers, thus apparently
giving the people to understand that it
was equally as honorable to die fighting
against as for the government.
The country along the railroad from
Sedalia, No., to this place, except the last
fifteen or twenty miles, is very good. 1t
is prairie land intcrspersed with timber,
and below Clinton, No., is very sparsely
settled Raw Prairie" as it is called is
worth from five to twelve dollars per acre,
and it will when improved make fine
farms.
leave Fort Scott to-day for lndepen-
dence, Montgomery county, Kansas, and
will again write you from that place.

From Kansas.

Have you decided to 60 west And to
Kansas? You could not do better.
Kansas is a good country to go to. l
thought so thirteen years ago And tried
it, and am here yet. Have not been sick
of my bargain for an hour. But no use
to say this. People will come here, say
what you may. When 10 come, and how,
is of some Importance to those about to
try it, II you are west Of Ohio, and
have good teams that cannot be sold at a
fair price, for cash, bring your teams. If
you and neighbor or two are coming,
and have enough of horses and household
goods to make car load, charter car,
and you can have it delivered at or near
almost any point in Kansas. Don't bring
old furniture, nor old stoves. New can
be bought for near the freight on old.
Coed, eastern made wagons can be bought
at almost any trading point here. at from
$50 TO $l00,harnesses S25 to s35 horses
500 to 1925, each If you are going
to Northern Kansas, that home Of industry,
thrift, and health, procure tickets to ST.
Louis, Mo-, and there buy tickets, ria
Pm6c r. Il. Of Missouri, to Atchison,
Kansas. You are thus landed on Kansas
soil, without change Of cars, from ST.
Louis, At Atchison, you can 60 out 100
miles into Kansas, on the Central Branch
Union Pacific r. r., and find lands near
the II. r., and in some places within a
mile Of Depot, at s. to SO per acre,
in old settlements, with schools already
established. Go 5 or 6 miles back, and
you will find good lands, in good settle
ments, at SO to So per acre, on 10 years
credit. Or you can go from Atchison,
northwest, on Atchison and Denver II. r.,
to almost any point in the extreme north
of the State.
If you can get here early in August,
you can put up your winter supply ofhay,
from the prairie grass, which makes ex-
cellent feed for stock. Then you can
rent piece of farm land, and puI in some
winter wheat, in September. You can
find plenty Of farmers who will furnish
you land and seed for half the crop in
the stack. Or for one third the crop,
you furnished the seed Get your hay
up, and your wheat sown, then you will
have time to fix up your house for winter,
or if you buy land, you will have time to
build a complete house.
Men with families have started here
with q team and 5000 or $500, and are
now comfortable farmers. Indeed, men
