AdInc's Guest.
One golden morn To Aiinc's hore there came
The angel bearer OF a sweet bchost:

For Christ tho Lord this day shan be thy guest"
wlth awe. .Adlne the hcavenly me age heard;
holy hush fell on her heart 4nd lace,
And going 10 nnd fro
Fhc whispered low,
To-day his presence shall lake glad this place"
Long hour' she watched, sd while she bent her
And through the twilight strained her eager sight
A shadow crossed the floor.
And NJ the door
A sad.cycd child begged shelter for the night.
But Adlne waiting for her kingiy guest,
with hope and fear al war within her heart,
No thought or care
The weary child could spare,
And with ungrAclOus aims badc him depart
Aud, with Il look that smote her like 4 sword
In robe Of flyory white
He turned and said, "Aliuc bChO,d thy Tordr'
ThrgiOry wancd that through the place had shonsi
The sheen nf pinI"us fair
SWEPT through .nH uir
And IN the twilight duu snc stood alone.
Still for the Masters coming AGlne waits.

Dr. Schenck himself who enioyed uninter-

was supposed at one time to be at the very
gete OF death, his physicians having pronounce

tate. He was cured by the aforesaid medi.
cinee, and, since his recovery, many thousands
similarly affected have used DR.. scheuok,s
preparations with the same remarkable suc-
cess.

not absolutely necessary to personally see DR..

% Yes, SIR"
"Didn't you lay in taters and cab
bages and beets and so on last fall when
they were so cheap?"
Z" No, sir.''
"Well, that shows you have no
head for planning. always put in my
provisions in the fall, and have 'em
where 1 can lay my hand on 'em. So
you have nothing to eat ?''
No, sir. ~

No, sir.''
"Had your supper last night?"
''No, sir; haven't eaten anything
in almost ten days"
"That's aleetle too much, mister ~
remarked the stranger as he squinted
his left eye. "If you had said that you
didn't have anything but milk toast for
