POETRY.
AUTUMN DAYS.
BY MELEsNIA A. CATO.

The Autumn days are passing by, the flowers
are fading fast.
And the west winds breathe mournful sigh'
as they hurry quickly past.
And the green leaves wear faded hue, as
they rustic round my door,
And the sky has lost its brilliant blue, which
In summer time 1t wore.
The Autumn time is passing by, how soft the
music note &.N
Comes warbling from the shady glens, from
the tinny songsters throat
We catch the strains at morning dawn and
evenings quite bowers,
And their echoes seems rs sweet to us, as the
scent OF fading flowers.
The Autumn time Is passing by. how sweet
have been the hours.
How glad the days, how calm the sky, how
sweet its woods and flowers,
We almost sigh to bid adien to sccncs so calm
and bright
But memory will those scenes renew with an
ever fond delight.
o, Autumn time is passing by, aud with II
many a scene
Which long shall live in memorys page, for
ever fresh and green.
All, many friend we loycd so DEAR we'v,
bid the fast farewell,
And many voice Of music sweet has gone
far hence to dwell.
0. Autumn time Is passing by, and we are
passing too,
Already DER our evening sky shadow dims
its blue,
But ., there dawns Eirer day. n summer
long aud bright,
Whose leaves fade not. nor flowers decay
beyond the reach Of light.

TELL YOUR MoTnER wonder how
many girls tell their mother everything.
Not those "young ladies'" who. going
to and from school, smile, bow, and ex
change notes and pictures with young
men, who make fun of them and their
pisii,rss. -spaaking ina NAY that would
make their cheeks burn with shame If
they heard it. All this, most credulous
and romantic young ladies, they will do,
although they will gaze at your fresh
young face admiringly, and send or give
you charming verses or bouquets No
matter what other girls do, don'ty you
do it. School-g girl 6rtations may end
disastrously, as many foolish, wrctchcd
young girl could tell you. Your ycarn.
Ing for some one to love 10 great need
Of every woman's heart. But there Is q
time for everything. Don't lot the bloom
and freshness of your heart be bruised
Off in silly flirtations. Render yourself
truly intelligent. And above all, tell
your mother everything. Never be
ashamed to tell her, who should be your
bost friend and conGdant, all you think
aud feel. 1t is strange that many young
girls will tell every person before "moth.
er" that which is most important that
she should know. 1t is said that indif-
fcrent persons know more about her fair
young daughter than she docs herself

Nor.s ON ADVERTISING cure dull
times-apply an advertisement to the AZ
Aicted part.
A sign. board can't tell everything. 1t
takes an advertisement TO do that.
All who advertise do not get rich. bot
precious few get rich without it.
The world is full Of advertising, yet
every one wants 10 see what 10 new.
The worlds memory Is short. II will
forget you il you do not jog it frequently.
Early to bed and early to rise will all
be in vain II you don't advertise.

E2- 1t should be known to patrons
that one Of tho principal planks in the

to buy for cash. We acknowledge that
there are many cases in which 1t is a
great trial to abstain from buying on

and oven some Of the necessities Of life
will have to be dispensed with for time
