l broke up the sweetest tete-a-tete between
herself and Carter that you ever saw. Mrs.
Jessamine had treated her best brocade to an
airing, and looked very handsome in her
way. Love is very becoming-even elderly
love.
"Mr. Carter, may I have Mrs. Jessamine
to myself two minutes?" 1 asked in the most
foolish voice could summon.
Carter evaporated kindly, and l sat down
so near Mrs. Jessamne that think sat on
several breadths of the beocade.
''Dear Mrs. Jessamine," said 1, 81 am

paused, recollecting how much I had
been talking like Sir Charles Coldscream. w
An angry flush overspread Mrs. Jessamipe's
face. No mention of Mary was ever agree
able to her except when she was spoken of
as the recipient of Mrs. Jessamine's bounty
'Mr. Charleton, my niece has received
from me everything-food, clothing, educa-

"My friend Carter has then succeeded in

said I, looking sideways at Mrs. Jessamine.

Here the old miser's eyes g!owed like a cat.

Carter, think that is so much nicer, don't
you, Mr.. Charleton ?'
assured her that did, and after advising
the most stringent arrangements, asked her
if she would tell Mary OF my offer.
"Really, Mr.. Charleton," said she, II have
very little to do with Mary lately. She, of
course, is not pleased with my engagement,
and we say very little to each other.'

word of French, she could not ask for cup

turned to her Carter.

Lucrative Catarrh,

This is the destructive and terrible stage of the
disease The whole nasal passage, including the eyes
and ears, the tonsils, throat, bronchial tubes and
lungs become, one after another, affected nfamed,
monster. A peculiar acid is generated and set at
liberty by this disease which, permeatng the blood,
lows the system opportunity to throw off the mall

is here that constitutional treatment becomes of the
most vital consequeIc because unless arrested at
this stage the disease will make rapid progress
towards pulmonary consumption" - Wdrren's
Household Physician. Meanwhile soothing, heal

to the nasal passages, this forming the most perfect
treatment of the disease nnSSihle.

POETRY.
A Madrigal.
BY LOUISE CHANDLER MoULToN.

Love is day, sweetheart, shining and bright:
1t hath its rose-dawn ere the morning light:
Its glow and glory of the sudden sun;
Its noontide heat, as the swift hours wear on:
Its tall of dew and siver-lighted night;
Love is day. sweetheart, shining and bright,
Love is a year, beloved, bitter and brief:
1t hath its spring of bud. and bloom and leaf;
lts summer, burning from the fervid south,
Till all the fields lie parchel and faint with drouth
Its autumn, when the leaves sweep down the gale,
ana skies are gray, and heart and spirit fail
us winter, white with snow, mole white with grief
Love is year, beloved, bitter and brief.
Love is life, sweetheart. and ends In death:
Is IL worth while to mourn its feeting breath
Light-footed youth, or sad, forecastiDg prime
Joy OF young hope, or grief of later time?
Love Ia life, sweetheart. that ends in death.

To Sell or Not TO Sell.

A question thousands of farmers are
now considering is, whether they ought to
sell their grain and other crops or to hold
them with the expectation of receiving
higher prices. This is a question which,
finally, each farmer ought to decide for
himself, not doing as others tell him to.
Let each farmer get all the information he
can, and then decide as his Judgment die
tatcs. In giving our own views we do not
wish them to be regarded as nfallible.
With regard to grain crops, especially
wheat and corn, il seems TO us there are
very good reasons for expecting an advance
in price before another comes on the mar
ket. 1t is certain that there will be large
| foreign demand, and that there are no large
