DISAPPOINTMENT.

But homeward coming all the way,
Signing lowly pacing slowly,
She knew the bent wheat whitening lay,
She saw the blossoms dry decay,
She missed the little brooklet's play.
A breeze had sprung from out the South
But, signing lowly, pacing slowly,
She only felt the burning drought;
Her eyes were hot, and parched her mouth
Yet sweet the wind blew from the South
And when the wind brought welcome rain
Still signing lowly, pacing slowly.
She never saw the lifting grain,
But only-a lone orchard lane,
Where she had waited all in vain!
--NOrd Perry.

of Bunyan's Christian, though it
couldn't bar his way to Truth. We can
sympathize with the Pilgrim, for Doubt
always besets us when we are asked to
believe anything particularly extraordi-
nary. Consequently, when we heard,
some eighteen months ago, that ply

from the JUICES and extracts of certain
herbs found there, a medicine that cured
almost every variety of blood disease,
We we incredulous. Since then we
have had opportunities of testing the
accuracy of the report, and are
free to admit that our doubts have
vanished. Seeing what we have SCI 1,

TVr heat of summer as we'll as Nh

THE heat of Summer, as well as the
sudden changes of temperature incident
10 Autumn, coupled with the use Of unripe
vegetables and fruits and other unwholesome
articles of food, result every season in pro-
ducing much suffering from Diarrhea, Dysen-
terry, Cholera Morbus, Collie and other derange-
ments Of the stomach and bowles. remedy
that will promptly relieve these sufierings and
restore tone and normal action 10 the relaxed
and dehilitated alment,ry canal, is surely a
boon to the afflicted. DR.. II. V. Pierce, whose
Family Medicines have acquired worldwide
reputation, by long study and careful chemical
experiments has succeeded in extracting, by a
cold process. from Smart-Weed or Water Pep
per, that modest little plant seen in wet
grounds by the roadside and in neglected
grounds and pasture fields, a remedial principle
which when skillfully combined with the eX-
tract of Jamaica Ginger and other pleasant
modifying agents, in what he calls his Com
pound Extract of Smart-Weed, forms a most
reliable specific for all such arrangements and
suiferings. 1t is pleasant and safe to take,
yet powerful to cure. Its wonderful efficacy is
further confirmation of the Doctors idea that
God has caused to grow, in each climate and
region, those medicinal plants best calculated
for the cure of the diseases that prevail in the
section of country where those plants are
found-that the leaves were for the healing
of the nations, and that the fewer far-fetched
remedies we employ the better, If We would
thoroughly investigate and understand those
we have at home. The Doctors Extract of
Smart-Weed is sold by druggists generally.

Waste t:rOL

On thousands of farms brought the
country, there is waste gro md enough,
if brought under cultivat on, to pay
the taxes and cost of cultivation. There
is much more than this ON may farms,
but we are speaking now of old cult
waited lands generally throughout the
country. These waste patches are
either grown up with elderberry or
blackberry bushes, or weeds, or they
are low spots that are too wet to cult
vate AT the proper season. In either
case, there is no better time 10 reclaim
them than the present. They are only
nuisances to the farm, and should be
reclaimed il for no other reason than
the owners reputation.
Fence rows are often so grown up
with briars and weeds as to render the
fences invisible, and have SO encroached
upon the land on both sides as to rem
der wide strip utterly worthless. In
such cases use q good stout brush
scythe, and cut away the growth on one
side of the fence. Then move the
fence out on clean ground, and finish
the cutting, after which the brush and
weeds can be gath cred into piles and
burned. Now pillow the grol nd as deep
as you can--and for this purpose oxen
are better than horses--harrow until
the surface is thoroughly pulverized,
and SOW it in buckwheat, for there
is no better crop for graduating
weeds. We tried tins several
years ago, from a suggestion we saw
in print, and can testify to its efficacy.
II the ground is low, end grown mp
with worthless grass or rushes, the
remedy is draining. This can frequent
ly be accomplished with very little
labor. We have one case in mind now,
in which farmer. by our persuasion,
thoroughly drained swamp Of an acre
in extent, in three days time, and it
is now, and il has been so ever since it
was reclaimed, the most fertile acre OF
the farm. And yet he had lost the use
of it for twenty years, just from want OF
little consideration.
These unsightly patches of land are
the richest you have on the place, and
will repay Won ten fold for their reno.

In An Hour.
ANTICIPATION.

I'm take the orchard path, she said,
Speaking lowly, smiling slowly
The brook war dry within its bed
The hot sun flung flame of red
Low in the West, as forth she sped.
Across the dried brook-course she went,
Singing lowly, smiling slowly:
She scarcely saw the sun that spent
Its fiery force in swift descent
She nel er saw the wheat was bent.
The grasses parched, the blossoms dried
Singing lowly, smiling slowly,
Her eyes amid the drought espied
A Summer pleasance far and wide,
With roses and swee violets pied.
