Game dear old comradc, yoH ana
Will steal an hour from days gone by
The shining days when life was new,
Nnd all was bright as morning deWi
The lusty days OF long ago,
When YOU was Bin aud was Joe.
Yonr name may tlaunt a titled trail,
Froad Us II cockcrels rainbow trall
Md mine as brief appendix wear
As Tam O'Shanter's luckess mare;
To day, old friend, remember still
That / am Joe and you are Bill
You've worn the great worlds cnvicd prize
And grand yoU look in peoples eyes
With IL o \. and Ii. d.,
In big brave letters fair to sec
Your first, old fellow of they go
How are you, BIZ How are you, Joe
You've won the Judges erminc robe;
You've taught your name to half the globe;
Yon'yc sung mankind dcathlcss strain;
You've made the dead past live again;
The world may call you what IL Will
But YOU aud are Joe and Bill
The chatting Young folks stare and say,
s-Sec those old buffers, bent and gray;
They talk like fellows in their teens
Mad poor old boys, That's what it means
And shake their heads; they little know
The thrObbing hearts oi Bili ana joe
How Bill forgcts his hour of pride,
While Joe sits smiling at his side;
How Joe, in spite OF Times disguise,
Finds the old Schoolmalc in his eyes
Those calm, stern eyes that melt and I'LL
~ Joe looks fontly up ut Bill
Al. pen,iyc scholar, what is fame;
4 ftiul tongue of lCaping flame;
A riddy whrlwinds tickle dust,
That lifts pinch Of mortal dust;
A yew swift wears and who can show
Which dust was Bill, and which was Joe?
The weary idol takes his stand,
Holds out his bruised and aching hand,
While gaping thousands come and go
Low vain ii seems, this empty show,
Til all at once his pulses thrill!
Ills poor old .Joe's God bless you, Bill
And shall we breathe in happier sphere,
The names that pleased our mortal ears,
IN some sweet lull of harp and song,
For earth.born spirits gone too long,
Just whispering OF the world below,
Where this was Bill, and that was joe

No sounding name il half so dear;
When fades at lcngth our lingering day,
Eh0 cares what ponpou> tombstoncs say

Worm IntIie Eve,

One of the most unusual things in surgical
evpetencc has been developed here this week.
On Monday last John McKoane living about
fifteen miles southeast of here, noticed one OF
his horses in great pain, and thought at first 1t
was afflicted with the collie, but soon found
that the pain seemed To he located III the eye.
Alum and various local remedies were tried,
but without giving asy relief. On closer en-
ANIMATION Il small slender object was seen mo-
wing about in the eye, aAd the conclusion ar
rived at that there was worm there. On
Wednesday, Mr. McCoane brought his horse
to town and while here scores of people saw
the worm in the eve, where 1t moved around
as freely rs 1t would in Il glass of water The
horse was taken To Snyder's stable first, but
subsequently, taken to Rowley'S, where very
dark stall could be secured
Thursday afternoon DR., }. j. Taylor gave
the horse chlorotorm and made au incision
through which he introduced q pair of forceps
and took out the worm. 1t is about two IN
ches long, and looks very much like that
length OF coarse spool cotton. The technical
name is "iilaria," and it must have been hatch
ed from an egg introduced INTO the eye IN
somn way, probably through the blood. This
is a very unusual thing To get into the eye, but
an occasional case is heard OF. The eyesisht
Is probably ruined by the worm, although
there is a chance that it may be saved. Con
trary to the general suppoSition 1t does not
rum the eve To cut INTO il as to let the water
out, if It is carefully done. The horse is still
at Rowley's stable where he will remain Tor a
few DAYS vet, until the eye can bear the light.
DIR TAYLOR has the worm IN a bottle of alcohol
and those who wish 10 see It can do so by cali
inc on him.-StyedtOr Free Press.

eipAl subject Of conversation on our streets
since. we win give few items growing out

Tho size of the warehouse was l00x200.
Farmers who had grain stored in the ware
house went TO work after the iire and took
out several thousand bushels. IL was not
worth much fer anything but hog or chicken

Ono man worked all day and sacked up a
large amount of wheat which no expected TO

ALBANY, Or, Nov Is, 1879.
Having been informed that some ono has
started a false r1mor in this city to the ef-
feet that have been in the habit Of using
alum in the manufacture of my bread, take
this opportunity to say that the statement is
false in every particular. l never have, dur
ing the time have been in business in this
city, used one particle of alum in the manu-
facture of my bread; and never expect TO do
so. 1 further say that the use of alum in
making bread is entirely unnecessary; as
bread made from flour manufactured in this
country is not materially improved in appear
ance by its use. 1 take pleasure in referring
the public to the certificate below which ex-
plains itself, hoping that this may set at rest

regard to this matter. JOHN Fox,
