TIRED OF AERDlNG CONS.

A Young Girl, Unlike the Prodigal Son.
Tired OF hcrdinE Cows at Home, En-.
sAysE TO sesks lelisf Among strasssrs.
Z. q Cas.iaDD. fPartsr, Turner cSna,y,
was In town Tuesday evening in quest Of
his daughter Silvey, who departed from the
paternal home.at that place at Que O'Clock
on Monday morning last. The missing
girl Is described as being sixteen years Of
age. with dark brown hair, clear complex
ion and red cheeks, small features, sharp
eyes between blue and gray, medium height
and weighs about 100 pounds. She had on
when cue left a white straw hat trimmed
with blue ribbon, dark cloak. checked calico
dress. and rather shabby shoes. She car
ried q satchel and 3 boys drum for o hat
box. The cause assigned for the girls de-
sertion of her home, was her distaetc OF the
drugtngs and sunfeminine farm work
which she was compelled to perform. Her
work during this summer was herd:ng cat
tie, aud she frequently informed members
Of the family that she was disgusted with
the work ard tired of the drudgery 10 which
she was subjected. She is represented as a
girl Of high spirit and determined will, and
the theory Of her parents is that her dis
tasteful labor 80 wrought upon her mind
that she determined to run away from
home. The family formerly resided in H.
linoi., and Silvey frequently informed her
youae acquaintances that che was going to
try to get back to her friends in that state
that a. soon as she could earn money
enough to pay her way she would start. Ii
is probable, therefore, that the girl started
outywith tho hope Of being able to reach
her former home in Illinois. She had no
money with her. She had earned one dol
lar andsa hal: BY receiving neighbors'- cat
tile 10 her fathers herd, hut she left the
money at home. Her father saS stbat there is
no boy or young man connected with the
gifra escapade; she was. no lover, and tha.
her desertion Of home has simply TO Eel
rid of her distasleful employment
No clue has yet been assertained 10 iht
girls Whereabouts |; but as she has doubles!
struck ont for the east, 1t ls not probable
that she can long escape discovery

he Galnsd an Entrance TO the Lumber Of.
flee OF Shannard l. Wynn, but Failed
to Get Into the safe.
The fellow who last night burglariously |
entered Shannard & Wynn's lumber office,
on the corner of Broadway and Fifth street.
was evidently not an expert cracksman, ut
least his. buugling and unsuccessful work
Elastsuigbt would naturally lead TO That con
|clusion. But-that he possessed the spirit
and Intentions of the most accomplished of
his class is also apparent.
Some time during the night a burglarious
entry was effected to Shannard 4 Wynn's
lumber Office through the east window on
the south side ofthe building. The window
was secured by a bolt on the inside, and to
remove this the burglar cut through the
frame of the sash until the bolt was reached,
but after having done this it appears that
he was unable To remove the bolt, az the
fastening was finally removed by breaking
a pane of glass and drawing the bolt out 40
would have been done if the window was
raised from the inside. Having gained an
entrance the burglar made an onslaught up
on the safe, which appears to have been
the special object Of his visit, and here is
where he left the evidences Of his %greenness
as acracksman.s His tools were . hammer
and blunt cold chisel. at least such is the
natural inference from the marks of his
work. The handle toSrthe dial Of the 'com-
binalion lock bears the marks Of several
blows withsa hammer,hy which the han
die was bent and the dials sligh,ly sprung,
but not sufficiently 10 destroy the action of
the lock. On the side ofthe safe near the
edge OF the dial arc two or three iudentares
which have the appearance of having been
made with blunt cold chisel or with the
beveled end Of the hammer. These are all
the marks upon the safe, and the iniury to
it!is insignificant, 'as it was readily opened
this morning in the usual manner. There
was y considerable amount of money in the
safe, and if the burglar had accomplished
his design he would have been we'll paid tol
his yeniure. 81,

POETRY.
Painted by Vatican.

painted by Vatican" so the legend runs
About the quaint gilt-frame. And painted well,
murmur; for the tenderest of suns
Shines softly in upon a forest dell
Where, robed in silken sheen and satin floss,
Ladies of fashion tired the golden moss.
While gentlemen our great grandfathers, trip
With crook in hand beside a crystal stream.
Sure never sweeter smile moved human lip.
The poet says, "Thngs are not what they SEEM
Perhaps they were not, then. Perhaps that grace
Was only in the figure and the face.
Leaving the heart false and foolish void.
Perhaps they felt not that the grass was green,
And that the Hover, wherewith the white hand
toyed,
Shone with the silent speech of the unseen
Perhaps that woman's heart was hard and cold;
Perhaps the man that wooed her wooed her gold
Past painters name and picture look out
Through the lawn window where the shadows
pass
So swiftly and each shadow with shout
OF sweet girl laughter from the trampled grass
All, Watteau thou art dim for all thy sun;
The world is wiser, and thy day is done.
Look at her there, the daughter of the house.
Slim as lily, fair as flowers are fair.
And look at him, the lord eff leagues of grouse,
Stalwart as Galahad, and as debonair.
NO rouge or powder, wreath ribboned crook
Mock The glad morning light by lawn and brook.
FLUSHED cheek, and laughing eyes of clearest blue
He bronze and bearded. Hang the picture there
And say which is the nobler of the two
Those old-world madens, with their shepherds gay
Or these, the man and woman of our day.

In all diseases of the Kidneys the scientific ply

often happens that the doctors prescriptions fail to

desderata in such cases are a safe and
Reliable Remedy.
Our science is maniestly at fault if it fails to make
this one indispensable discovery. The diagnosis.
however learned, is not a remedial agent-it never
cures. With the patient the remedy is the main
thing-it is everything while the technology
of the doctors has no practical value in the esta
