Fees Of Doctors.

Tho fee of doctors is an item that very
many persons are interested in just al
present. We believe the schedule fol
visits is s3, which would tax man
confined to his bed for year, and in
need of daily visit, over $1,000 yeaI
for medical attendance alone. And one
single bottle of Hop Bitters taken in
time would save the $1,000 and all the
YEARS sickness.

you will make both the bells come

A Remarkable Coinci.lent.

LII the series of articles now be-
lug published in the Gazette under
the caption of "Raymond Years
Ago." Col. Harper relates the fol.
lowing remark d ble Occurrrnce:
About the year 1912 Mr.. Bonsall,
"A highly intelligent and much es
teeued citizen, resided with his
family IN the house now occupied
by W. ID. Patten, Sr., adjoining the
Episcopal church. Mr.. Bonsall, on
certain day, went to Clinton, on
busisness. On the way back home,
aud when near Baker's creek, a
storm came up, with thunder and
lightning. He was struck by
lightning and instantly killed.
His watch being injured by the
lightning, stopped, aud thus iudi-
Gated to the minute the time of the
catastrophe. But,strangely enough,
his cdtch was not the only time
piece that recorded the hour of the
lightning flash that carried him to
eternity. His house in Raymond,
as above stated, was strnck by
lightning at the same hour aud
minute, tbOngh four or five miles
distant. The Ii htning struck the
chimney, and running down
on the inner side, struck the
clock which was on the mantel-
piece, running, stopping it
and the stoppage marked iden-
tically the stoppage OF the watch! !!
A more remarkable occurrences,
perhaps, does not attach TO the
history of any village OF tue State.

CONQUERED AT LAST.

You came to US once, o, brothers in wrath
And rude desolation followed your path !.
You conquered US then, but only in part,
For stubborn thing is the human heart.
SO the mad wind blows in his might and
main,
And the forests bent to his breath like
grain;
Their heads in the dust, and their bran hes
broke;
But how shall he soften their hearts Of oaki
You swept DER our land like tho whirl-
winds wing, a .. .rn.
But the human heart 10 a stubborn thing.
We laid down ouf arms, we yielded our
will;
But our "hesrt of hearts" was unconquered
still.
1--WE are vanqnished," We said, "but our
wounds must hesl;"
We gave you our swords, but our hearts
were steel.
"We are conquered" we ssld, but our
hearts were sore,
And "woc to the conquered" on every door.
But the spoiler came, and he would not
spare,
The angel that walketh in darkness was
He walked thro' the valley, he walked
thro' the street.
And be left the print of his fiery feet
In the dead, dead, dead, that were every
where,
And buried away with never prayer.
From the desolats If nd, from its very heart,
There went forth cry to the uttermost
part 8
Yoa heard it, o brothers With never a
measure
You opened your hearts, and poured out
your treasure.
o! Sisters OF Mercy, you gave above these
Fer you helped, we know, on your bended
knees.
Your pity was human, but oh it was more,
When you shared our cross and our burden
bore.
Your lives in your hands, you stood by our
side;
Your lives for our lives you lay down and
died. .4.# ..
And no greater love hath man to give,
Than lay down his life tha. his friends may
live.
You poured in our wounds the oil and the
wine, .
That you brought TO US from Hand Div
inc.
You conquered is, brothers; our swords
We gave; E...
We yield now our hearts, they are all We
have.
Our last ditch was there, and it held out |
loug; ...
It il yours, 0 friends and you'll find it
strong.

Your love had magic, diviner than art,
And Conquered by Kindness" we'll write
