amount paid to the heirs of William III. Sew
ard for copyright of the first six months of his

second six months began on the LIST of August,
and the sale OF the work continues as constant
and as large as before. Such profit for such
time is probably without parallel in this
country, if it has ever been equalled anywhere.
1t is probable that Mr.. Stewards recent death
created large demand for the narrative of
the closing events of his life. written by his
own hand, as such a book, to certain degree,
must necessarily be; but so unprecedented a
sale can only be accounted for by a very gener-

An honest man is wanted, more

To him, who is honorable and fair,
In all his dealings with mankind,

Who, "on the goose is always sound"
And sells WALNUT CHAMBER SET,

THE OLD STORY.
RY ALICE CARY.


The waiting women wait a. her feet,
And the day j. g. ling down 70 he night.
And close AZ her pillow. and round and sweet,
The red rose burns like a lamp a-light,
Under aud over the gray mist ler-,
End down and down from the mOssy caves,
And down from the sycamore's long wild leaves,
The slow rain drops and drops and drops.
All never had sleeper a sleep so fair;
And the waiting women that weep around
Have taken the combs from her golden hair,
And II sldeth over her face 70 the ground,
TLey have hidden the light from her lovely eyes;
srl down from the caves whore the mosscs grow
Ius fam j. dim, n. 80 slow, 80 slow,
And II. night w.uI cries and cries and cries.
From her hand they have tsken the shining ring
They have brought the i her shroud to make; I;
q the lark she was never so 10th to sing,
And the morn she never so 10th to awake
Ana at their sewing they hear the ram
DriI-s,rup, drlI-lrop, over the caves,
And triI-drOp over the sycamore leaves,
A. If there would never be sunshine again.
The mourning train 10 the grave have gone,
And the waiting women are here and are there,
With birds AZ the windows and CLEANS of the sun,
Making the chamher Of death TO be fair,
And under and over the mist unlaps,
And ruby aud amethyst burn through the gray,
And irest bushes grov green with spray,
Aud the dimped water it, glad hands caps.
The leaves Of the sycamore dance and wave,
Aud the mourners put off the mourning shows,
And over the pathway down 10 the grave
The long grass blows and blows and blows,
And every drJ-drcp rounds To a flower,
And love in the heart Of the young man springs,
And the hands of the maine e,s shine with rings,
AZ If all life were fes.iya! hour.

What the Garter Does.

Here is something from the Book of
Beauty that is strictly local here or
anywhere else. Women should read 1t !:
"A handsome leg is rarity, we had
almost said an impOssibility, among
American women. The reason of this
is the place where they wear the garters.
No French woman, no English woman
of cultivation, nowadays wears her
garters below her knees. 1t is rlIinous
to the shape of the calf. More than
this, it has serious consequences OF an
other kind. The principal vein of the
leg, vena saphrenabrevis, runs Just be-
meath the skin until it nearly reaches
the knee, when it sinks beneath the
muscles. Now, if this is obstructed at
its largest point by tight garter, the
blood is checked in its return to the
heart, the feet are easily chilled, and
more liable TO disease the other veins
of the leg are swollen into hard, blue
knots become varicose, as it is called,
and often break, forming obstinate
ulcers. This is picture which physi-
clan sees nearly every day. With the
garter fastened above the knee all this
pain and deformity is avoided, but it is
still better to wear no garter at all, and
to suspend the stockings by tapes around
the waist. In this case, however, well
fitting stocking is needed
