Where all the trees, too, have voices,
And all like chorus sing,
And a sound as Of music rei5ices

On the air songs OF true love are swelling.

A Sick Senator.

The excessive corpulency of a certain United
States Senator has long been the butt of edi
torlal wit and spicy mon mots from the pens Of
Washington correspondents. Few persons have
suspected that his obesity was disease. and
liable to prove fatal. Yet this is the sad fact
Excessive fairness is not only disease in itself
but 1t Is liable to generate other and more Sc
rlous ones. Chemistry has at last revealed a
safe, sure, and reliable remedy for this abnor-
NAL condition of the system in Allan's Anti
Fat. Distinguished chemists have pronounced
it not only harmless but very beneficial to the
system, while remedying the diseased condi-
ton. Sold by druggists.
Malignant and subtle indeed is the poison of
Scrofula, and terrible in it's ravages in the sys-
tenn. They may, however be permanently
stayed and the destructive virus expelled from
the circulation with Scovill's Blood and Liver

Of them behind, White swelling, salt rheum,

the daughter of one of the most illus
trious soldiers of the empire. Her faith
er had acquired al elevated rank, great
glory and high station in the army
but he was one of the few generals whom
the emperor had not enriched. Matilda
de - had, therefore, no fortune to be-
stow upon the one who should call her
his.
Napoleon de - was the grandson of
the noble Duchess de-. The duchess
had great name, an empty title, but no
fortune.
Notwithstanding this, the duchess and
the general, long bound together by the
ties of friendship, had mutually agreed
to unite their two children In marriage
OF this determination, however, they
soon repented. While Matilda and
Napoleon gave themselves up to the
sweet charm of their mutual affection,
the duchess and the general, alarmed
for the interests of their children, and q
little also for their own, played a scene
of high comedy.
If my daughter" said the general,
marries that poor devil, Napoleon,
adieu TO luxury and pleasure"

should wed girl and not a fortune,
how could we ever restore the lustre of

The general, therefore, sought to wean
| Matilda from her lover, and the duchess
exerted herself to divert Napolean from
thinking of Matilda. But neither could
succeed. Napoleon and Matilda loved
too sincerely, too devotedly, to fall an
easy prey to the snares spread out to en-
trap their youth and inexperience.
Unable to disunite them, the general
and the duchess insisted upon the de-
parture of Napoleon, and on his absent
ing himself for g while from Paris.
They told him thai the smallness of
their fortunes required it. 1t was indis-
