LOVES BELIEF.

believe if were dead
And you should kiss my eyelds where lie
Cold, dead and dumb to all the world contains
The folded orbs would open at thy breath,
And, from the exile in the isles of DEATH
Life would come gladly back along my veins,
believe if were dead,
And you upon my lifeless heart should tread
Not knowing what the poor clod CHANGED to be-
1t would find sudden pulse beneath the touch
OF him it ever loved in life so much,
And throb again. warm, tender, true to thee.
1 believe if in my grave,
Hidden in woody depths by all the leaves, -
Your eyes should drop some warm tears of regret
Fromevery salty seed of your deep grief
Some fair, sweet blossom would leap into leaf
To prove death could not make my love forget.
I believe if should fade
Into the mystic realms where light is made,
And you should long once more my face to see,
would come forth upon the hills OF night
And gather stars like faggots, till thy sight,
Led by the beacon blaze fell full on me.
believe my love for thee
(Strong as my life) so nobly placed to be,
1t could as soon expect to see the sun
Fall like dead king from his heights sublime,
His glory stricken from the throne of time,
AS thee unworth the worship thou hast won.
believe love, pure and true,
Is to the soul a sweet, immortal dew
That gems life's petals in the hour of dusk,
The waiting angels see and recognize
The rich crown jewel love OF paradise,
When life falls from us like withered huSk.

"reminiscences Of the Lee Family.

General Henry Lee, 'sLight Horse Har.
ry," father of General Robert E. Lee, sue
ceeded Beverley Randolph as Governor OF
Virginia in 1901, and in 1894 was succeed
ed by Robert Brooke. Light Horse Harry
was also representative from Virginia
in the Congress of the United States from
1899 to 1901 from the district of Which
!. In 1872, when the declaration of wal
against Great Britain was made by Con-
gress, Light Horse Harry was a citizen of
Alexandria. One Mr.. Hanson, editor of
the Federal Republican" a Baltimore pa
per, having made some harsh structures on
the conduct of the government in reference
to the difficulty with Great Britain, (many
in those days were opposed to that war,
he was driven thence and sought refuge in
Georgetown, D. c., where, on Charles st.,
with the aid of Light Horse Harry and
other friends, he recommended his paper,
intending to distribute the same in Balti-
more, as formerly. The act led to mob,
in which one DR.. Gale was killed by sho
from the office window, and many were
wounded in the subsequent melee outside.
The siege continuing, an agreement was af-
forwards made that the parties in the Office
should surrender to the civil authorities,
They did so, and were conducted to the
jail. The party consisted of about twen-
ty persons, amongst whom were General
Lee, General James Ligan, and Mr.. Han
son. The Jail was afterwards assaulted,
and General Ligan (who had been mayor
of Baltimore,) killed. Mr.. Manson escap-
ed with life after being dreadfully beaten.
There is no record that Light Horse Har-
ry was hurt. These facts are extracted
from Grimshaw's History of the United
States, published in Philadelphia in 1885.
Years after that General Lee went from
Alexandria to the West Indies for the ben
eft of his health, and returning in 1918,
died at the home of friend on an island
off the Georgia coast, where his remains
now repose. His son, Robert E. Lee, was
then eleven years of age,

An Extraordinary Sentence.

The following extract is taken from a
sentence recently pronounced by Judge
Reading, of Chicago, upon the liquor dea-
lers who had violated the law by selling it
to minors. In will repay careful peru
sal:
"By the law you may sell it to men aid
women. if they will buy. You have given
your bond and paid your licence to sell to
them, and no one has right to modest
You in your legal business. No matter
what the consequences may be, no matter
shat poverty and restitution are produced
by your selling according to law, you have
paid your money for this privilege, and
you are licensed to pursue your calling.
No matter what families are distracted
and rendered miserable; no matter what
wives are treated with violence; what
children starve or mourn over the degra-
dation of parent-your business IS legal
lied, and no one may interfere with you
for it. No matter what mother may ag-
onize over the loss of a sou, or sister blush
at the shame of a brother, you have a
right to disregard them all, and pursue
your legal calling-you are licensed. You
may fit up your lawful place of business
in the most enticing and captivating form
you may furnish it with the most costly
and elegant equipment for your own law
full trade you may fill it with the allure
ment Of amusement; you may use all arts
to allure visitors; you may skilfully ar
range and expose to view your choicest
wines and captivating beverages, you may
induce thirst by all contrivances to pro-
duce raging appetite for drink and then
you may supply that appetite to the full.
because it is lawful you have paid for it
you have a license.
''You may allow boys and children to
frequent your saloon; they may witness
the apparent satisfaction with which
their seniors quaff the sparkling glass;
you may be schooling and training them
for the period of twenty-one, when they,
too. can participate-fo all that is lawful.
You may hold the cup to their lips; but
you must not let them drink--that is I'M
lawful. For, while you have all these
privileges for the money you pay, this poor
privilege OF selling to children is denied
you. Here parents have the right to say,
Leave my son to me until the law gives
you right to destroy him. Do not an
ticipate that terrible moment when I can
assert for him no further rights of protec-
ton. That will be soon enough for me,
for his sister, for his mother, for his friends,
for the community, to see him take the
road to death. Give him to us In his
childhood at least. Let us have a few
hours of his youth, in which we can enjoy
his innocence to repay us in some small
degree for the care and love we have Law
ished upon him..
"This is something which you, who
now stand prisoners at the bar, have not
paid for this is not embraced in your Ii
cense. For this offence the court senten-
ces you to ten days. Imprisonment in the
county Jail, and that you pay fine of Sc
twenty-five dollars ard costs, and that you
stand com mitted until the fine and costs of
this prosecution are paid"
Wehave not heard from any source such
an arraignment of the license law as
this.

Safe and Sure.
MR.. 81. R. STEVENS.
In 1872 your VEGETINE was recommended to me;
and yielding to the persuaSiOnS of a friend, con-
scented to try it. At the time was suffering from
general debility and nervous proStraton, superin-
duced by overwork and irregular habits. Its wonder
full strengthening and curative properties seemed to
affect my debtated system from the first dose; and
under its persistent use rapidly recovered gaining
more than usual health and good feeling Since then
have not heSitated to give VEGETINE my most I'M
qualified Endorsement as being safe sure and pow
erful agent in promoting health and restoring the
wasted system to new life and energy. VEGETINE is
the only medicine use, and as long as live never
expect to find better.

To YOUNG MEN.-Neyer use young
lady's name in an improper place, or in
mixed company, Never make assertions
about her that you think to be untrue, or
illusions that she herself would blush to
hear. Where you meet with men who do
not scruple to use a woman's name in
reckless manner shun them. They are the
worst members OF the community; men
lost to every sense of honor every feeling
of humanity. Many 9 good and worthy
woman's character has been forever uined
and her heart broken by a lie manufactured
by some villain, and repeated when it
should not have been, AMI in the presence
of those whose little judgment could not
deter them from circulating the foul and
Dragging report.

BAD CoLD.-I append two remedies for
cold, leaving the reader to take his
choice: l. AS soon as you find that YOU
have an attack of cold, abstain from
swallowing anything liquid. You may eat
ordinary food, but you must not drink
anything. Keep this up for sixteen hours.
and you will be comparatively well. The
first drink of water you take, will teach
you how good water is. 2. The first night
after you take cold, take dose of aperiena
medicine and rub well, night and morning
with damp towel.
