WIDOW COBB.

The fire cracked cheerfully ON the
broad hearth of the old farmhouse
kitchen, cat and three kittens basked
in the warmth, and decrepit yellow
dog. lying in the reflection of the blaze,
wrinkled his black nose approvingly as
he turned his hind feet where his fore
feet had been.
Over the chimney hung several fine
hams and pieces of dried beef Apples
were festooned along the ceiling, and
crooked-necked squashes We'd with red
peppers and slips of dried pumpkins in
garnishing each window-fram There
we're plants, too, on the window lodges
horseshoe geraniums and dew plants,
and monthly rose just budding, to say
nothing of pots of vlolets that perfumed
the whole place whenever they took it
into their purple heads to bloom.
The floor was carefully swept-the
chairs had not speck of dust upon leg or
round; the long settee near the fire place
shone as if it had Just been vanished,
and the eight-day clock in the corner
had had its white face newly washed,
and seemed determined to tick the
louder for it. Two arm-chairs were
drawn up at cozy distance from the
hearth and each other; candle, news
paper, pair of spectacles, a dish of red
checked apples, and a pitcher of cider,
filled little table between them.
In one of these chairs sat a comforta-
BILE looking woman of about 40, with
cheeks as red as the apples, and eyes as
dark and bright as they had ever been,
resting her elbow On the table, and look
ing very thoughtfully into the fire.
This was Widow Cobb-"relict" of Dea-
con Levi Cobb, who had been moldering
into dust in the By town churchyard for
more than seven years. She was think
ing of her dead husband, possibly be
cause-all her work being done, and the
servants gone to bed-the sight of his
empty chair at the other side of the table,
and the silence of the room, made her a
little lonely.
"Seven years." so the widows reyerie
ran. at seems as if it were more than
fifty-and yet 1 dent look so very OLD
either Perhaps its not having any
children to bother my life out, as other
people have. They may say what they
hke-children are more plague than
proft-that's my opinion. Look at my
sister Jerusha, with her six BOYS. She's
worn to shadow, and am sure they
have done it, though she will never own
it.
The widow took an apple from the
dish and began to peelit.
How dreadful fond Mr. Cobb used tc
be of the gratis. He will never eat any
more Of them, poor fellow, for 1 dom
suppose they have apples where he ha.
gone to. Heighol remember very vel
how l used to throw apple e-parings over
my head when l was girl, to see who
was going to marry" . ...
Mrs Cobb stopped short and blushed
For in those days she did not know Mr.
Cobb, and was always looking eagerly t.
) see if the peel had formed a capital as
Her meditations took new turn.

The reputation it has attained, in
consequence of the marvellous cures it
has produced during the last half GEN.
tury, is 4 sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost every section of country
there are persons, publicly known, who
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs,
by its use. All who have tried it ac-
knowledge its superiority; and where
its virtues are known, no one heSitateS
as to what medicine to employ to re-
lieve the distress and suffering peculiar
to pulmonary affections. CHERRY Pee
ToRAL always affords instant relief, and
performs rapid cures of the milder va
rietieS of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases of the
lungs.
As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat and Chest of Childhood, it
is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudeS are rescued and restored to
health.
This medicine gains friends ut
every trial, as the cures IL Is constantly
producing are too remarkable to be
forgotten. No family should be with
out it, and those who have once used
it never viii.
Eminent Physicians throughout the
country prescribe it, and Clergymen
often recommend it from their knowl-
