Our Baby Died.

Sitting in the waiting room of a de-
pot, the other day, a young mother with
a dear rosy baby OF prehaps 6 months,
came in and tooka seat at my side.
My heart was full of grief, and ached
with utter loneliness, for only three
weeks before the Angel of death had en-
tered our home and taken our frst-born,
our only. Oh! how drsary the wide,
cold world seemed to us now! In my
selfish sorrow, l thought never was a
home left so darkly desolate; never were
arms 80 empty, or a heart SO sore as
mine. was about to ask to take for a
moment that healthy growing baby, when
a little blue-eyed girl, of some 5 years,
who had been watching the little one
too, came over to us, and as she climbed
ed into set near, said "let me hold
your baby please, our baby died, and
its SO lonesome at our house now" 1
could keep back my tears no longer; she
looked into my face, as she held the
baby close, and asked "Why do you
cry Did your baby die too1" L
dared not trust my voice, could only
bow my head in answer to the dear lit
tie prattler, who had thus shown me
that others had been called to "Pass
under the Rod" Other homes have
been left desolate The train came in,
and in the rush and hurry, 1 had just
time to see the babe taken back into
its mothers arms, and me thought she
clasped it more tenderly, as she realised
that for some wise purpose "some are
taken-others left" One glance at the
mother whose baby had died-I see
lines of sorrow and many tears in her
face, but with all peaceful trusting
look, as though her heart had been
oomforted by those dear words, "Of
such is the Kingdom of Heaven"

A PODular Hotel.

Nothing can be more consoling and
appreciable to those having occasion to
visit large cities than to know with some
degree of certainty, where they may
rely on the most comfortable accommo-
dation on the most moderate terms.
From over a years experience, we can
vouch that those visiting Toledo will
find the Dwight House" Hotel the
most comfortable quarters-for ladies,
gentlemen or famihes-with the utmot
home comforts, of any place in the city.
The proprietor and ndproprietress-Mr and
Mrs Anen-are ever. in personal and
most courteous attention upon guests,
while the gentlemanly clerk-Mr. F..
Bainbridge-is unremitting in attten-
tions and civilities, with a geniality that
is truly exhilarating.

TRAIN BLOWN OVER.

It's fearful wind strong enough TO
blow over a train Of moving cars. But
it did so out in Colorado the other day.
A letter from Mr.. E. s. Nettelton, of
Colorado Springs, dated Jan. oath,
which we find in the Medina Gazette,
says:
undertook to go down to Pueblo.
When about five miles out, the whole
train was capsized, except the engine,
including the coaches, the baggage and
mail cars, and the tender. No one was
hurt. The conductor got the passengers
oil in the rear coach and as many as
possible on the side next to the wind.
When we got down the valley, where the
wind had fair, broadside sweep at us,
we again tipped over. The conductor
was standing beside me, white as a sheet
and wanted to know what was best to do.
1 advised him to stop before crossing a
bridge which was just ahead, the longest
one on the road; if we didn't blow over
we would probably Jump the track, for
the wheels were grinding on the side
of the rail, as we we're turning a sharp
curve. He pulled the bellrope, the
engineer put on the steam brake, and
just as we stopped over we went, piling
men, women, children, baggage, cush-
ions, and every thing together. For q
moment there was quite scrambling
and rattling of glass. About all the
damage done was the breaking of the
windows on the under side of the car.
The conductor and L walked back to
meet the freight train which was follow
ing. It took us back to the Springs,
where we waited until the wind moderat-
ed then took coach down and brought
the passengers back. Some of them
were among those who had been showed
in ten days on the Kansas Pacific road
They thought being blown off the track
was not so monotonous as lying in a
snow-drift

OIED SUDDENLY OF HEART DISEASE

How common is the announcement.
Thousands are suddenly swept into
eteruity by this fatal malady. This dis
ease has generally had its origin in i'm
pure blood filled with irritating poison
Gus materials, which, circulating through
the heart, irritate its delicate tissues
Though the irritation may at first be on
ly slight, producing a little palpitation
or irregular action, or dull, heavy, or
sharp darting pains, yet by and by the
disease becomes firmly seated, and in
or hypertrophy, or thicken-
ing of the lining membrane or of the
valves, is produced. How wise to give
early attention to case of this kind.
unnatural throbbmg of pain in the re-
gion of the heart should admonish one
that all is not right, and if you would
it from further disease, you
must help it to beat rightly by the use
of such a remedy as will remove the
cause of the trouble. Use DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery before the
disease has become to seated, and it will,
by its great blood purifying and won

specifically upon the tissues Of the heart,

Several citizens of Findlay, o., have
requested Mr.. Foster to have
Postmaster Adams, of that place, re-
moved, but Mr.. Foster was unwilling TO
make charge Of incompetency against
him, required by tho civil service rules
as a cause for removal. He has now re-
ceived numerous communications from
citizens of such standing in the place as
forbade his ignoring the matter, charg-
ing that the Postmaster ia inefficient

ments of these letters, Mr.. Foster has
deemed it his duty TO request the Post
master General to have made thor
ough investigation of that office, and
Special Agent Strong has been detailed
