THE ROYALEST GIFT.

BY MARGARET ]. PRESTON.
IN achronicle quaint end olden,
| have read of an ancient king
Who, out Of his wsr-won treasure
Vowed unto the Lord TO bring
gift Of the noblest value:
: And therefore I'll build, said he,
=" costly and grand cathedral,
wonder and pride TO see.
III lavish my ieaped abundance
With open nd kingly hand
And still be the richest monarch
That rules in this Western land.
" Albeit from base TO roof-stone,
My grandeur shall gid the whole,
The poorest among my vassals
May parcel their willing dole.
"Then hearken and heed. good people,
Bring hither your tirhings, all,
For viii reject no pittance
Ye offer, howe'er SO small. p"
so, grandly the work went forward;
And ont Of their stinted store
Each brought. till the royal Golfers
With their aims were spilling Ger.
As the sacred walls rose skywarG
One day, on a fresh hewu stone,
Near by, desolate woman
sat sadly, and thus made moan:
II one of these ali doth love Thee
As Thou, Christ! dost know!
And yet ! can bring Thee nothing,
Ah nothing 10 proyeit so.
Even Yonder the straining oxen,
That drag al the heavy beam,
Are toiling in Thy sweet service
How worn with their work they seem
. What hinders that this poor cleaning
From my emptied arms layf
Dear Lord since for Thee they labor,
IU gjEe HienaBlV lcisp Q hGy."
When grand in its finished splendor
The wonderful minister shone,
There stood in The sight of the people,
Deep grayed on a mystic stone,
The name of the giver whose largess
Had honored, DER all, the fame:
Behold twas an unknown woman's!
And they searched for the kings in vain

fully confirmed by publishers. "Stop

per has been established for term of
years. So long as paper pursues a
lust, honorable ald judicious course,
meeting the warts of its customers in
all respects, the ties of friendship be-
tween the subscribers and the paper are
as hard to bre& by an outside third
party as the linkiwhich bind old friends
in business or social life. Occasional
defects and erprs in newspaper are
overlooked bythose who have become
attached to it through its perusal for

NAV stop taxing it; but the absence of

A rather unusual incident occurred
at Crestline on Thursday. A. lady was
taken i'll OH train before it reached
the station and a request was made of
Conductor Gray that he hold over the
train for short time, which, with his
usual good nature, he consented to do,

go on with the train, looking as well as
could be eXpected.-Shield and Banner.

ADVANCE PAYMENT.

The credit system in the newspaper
business scatters small sums of money
aggregating a large amount to each
publisher, over a vast extent of country
rendering collection from tardy debtors
next to impossible and is therefore pro-
ductive of great loss to publishers.
Paper, ink, labor and all other sources
of expenditures in newspaper Offices
require cash.
Better papers can be published when
paid for in advance than when the pro-
prietors are pressed for money to meet
the daily demands made upon them.
There is little doubt that law OF
Congress will, in few months, require
postage to be paid on all papers sent
through the mails, and that it must be
paid in advance by the publishers.
In view of the foregoing, and other
considerations which it is not deemed
necessary to enumerate, the under
signed, publishers of the Holmes Coun-
ty REPUBLICAN and Holmes County Far
nler, agree to adopt the pay-in-advance
system, to send no papers from their
respective offices from and after the
FIRST DAY OF JULY NEXT,
unless the same be paid for in advance.

There is no pain which the Centaur Liniment
will not relieve, no swelling it will not subdue
and no lameness which it will not cure This is
strong language, but it is true. Where the part
is not gone, its effects are marvellous. 1t has
produced more cures OF rheumatism, neuralgia,
lock-jaw, palsy, sprains, swellings, caked-
breasts, scalds, burns, salt rhuem, ear-ache,
&c, upon the human frame, and of strains,
SPAWN, gals, Sc, upon animals in one year
than have all other pretended remedies since
the world began. 1t is a counter -irrItant, an
all-healing pain relieyer. Cripples throw away
their crutches, the lame walk, poisonous bites
are rendered harmless and the wounded are
healed without scar. 1t Is no humbug. The
ecipe is published around each bottle. 1t is
selling as article ever before SOLD, and it sells
because it does just what it pretends to do
Those who now suffer from rheumatism, pain
or swelling, deserve to suffer if they will not
use Centaur Liniment More than 1000 certif-
Gates OF remarkable cures, including frozen
limbs, chronic rheumatism, govt, running tu-
mors, &C., have been received. We will send
a circular containing certificates, the recipe,
&C., gratis, to any one requesting it. One bot
tie of the yellow wrapper Centaur Liniment is
worth one hundred dollars for spawned or
sweenied horses and mules, or for screw-wom
in sheep. Stock owners - this Liniment is
worth your attention. No family should be
without Centaur Liniment. j. b. ROSE & Co.,
