uOeS not know TO JnlS day, but suddenly
his eyes became clear, and he could see
his wife lying with her face next him
and the water washing her long hair
over her breast. He lifted her up. He
felt her hands, her cheeks. Then sud-
denly he summoned all his remaining
strength for one supreme effort, and
dragged rather than carried her up t.
the dry shelving beach under the bluff.
Mary Hope slowly opened her eyes and
looked at her husband. Then she put
her hands slowly up to her face and
covered it.
Dick saw the tears coursing down her
cheeks. "Don't - don't, Nary" he
said.
"I can't help it. 1 am not crying
with pain or grief it's because you are
living, because we both are spared"
Dicks strength returned to him. He
stood up and looked about him. Until
that moment he did not know that he
was coatless and without vest or shirt !;
he was naked. He pressed his eyes with
his hands and looked down on himself
like one awakening out of a dream. He
looked at his wife, still sitting with her
face covered with her hands: " Mary,
we are almost naked. There is nothing
on me, and your dress is in ribbons" I"
He looked up and down the river in a
helpless way, still pressing hand to
his heart "I don't see-any sign Of
the buggy or the horse" Then he cast
his glance at the bluff back of them.
Come, let us go up on the bank"
He had to carry her.
cit is the horrible fright, dear Dick.
I'll soon get over it," she said, when he
set her down gently on the level ground
Mary, look over there. Do you see
anything? My eyes are so full of sand,
so sore, that 1 can't make it out quite.
Everything looks blurred"
She did not answer him, It was not
because her eyes were not clear. AS she
looked wonderingly, her hand, that had
never relinquished her husbands from
the moment he seated her on the prairief
clasped his convulsively. Then she ut
tered loud cry.
CT expected as much" said Dick,
speaking more to himself than to his
wife. "Ns8hing-nothing man ever
made could stand before that storm"
"Oh, Dick" she exclaimed, Sob
bingly, "there is nothing left of the
town-not house. I can only see q
heap here and there-something like
fallen chimneys and smoke and fire."
"That's the end of Pringle's Flat,
Mary"
He looked back over the prairie
back to the fringe of trees that skirted
portion of the road near the base of
Dams Rock but little while since. He
could not recognize the place he had
looked on hundred times. The trees
had disappeared; they had been swept
from the face of the earth. Then he
shaded his eyes with his hand and
looked across to where Pringle's Flat
had stood in all the pride of new
Western town. Dick Hope suddenly
knelt by his wife's side, still holding
her hand, saying: "Let us pray"
Among all those who witnessed the
awe-inspiring tornado that swept Prin-
gle's Flat until not one stone stood
upon another, killing, manning all
living creatures in its path, none have
such vivid recollections as Dick Hope
and his wife. When they refer to their
experience on that terrible day they
speak in a low tone, reverently, as
though standing in the presence of the
dead,-Daoid Looo'g, in LippincOH.

No Time for Hating.

Begone with feud away with strife
Our human hearts unmating
Let MS DO friends again This life
Is all too short for hating
SO dull the day, 30 dim the way,
So rough the road we're faring-
Far better veal with faithful friend,
Than stalk alone uncaring
Tho barren fig the withered vine,
Arc types Of selfish living;
But souls that give, like thine and mine,
Renew their life by giving.
While cypress waves DER early graves,
On all the way we're going,
Far better plant, whore seed is scant,
Than tread on fruit that's growing
Away with scorn Since die we must
And rest on one low pillow;
There are no rivals in the dust
No foes beneath the willow.
30 dry the bowers, so few the flowers,
Our earthly way discloses,
Far better stoop where daisies droop
Than tramp DER broken roses
OF what are all the joys we hold
Compared to joys above us /
And what are rank, and power and gold,
Compared to hearts that love us?
SO fleet our years, so full of tears,
SO closely death is waiting;
God gives us space for loving grace,
But leaves no time for hating.

HEALTH HINTS.

All stimulants, even tea and coffee,
act upon the system as poison, and are
consequently injurious.
The Family Physician says: Digestion
requires leisure. Never eat until you
can be sure of leisure for digestion.
After rest then "give an hour of exercise
to every pound of food"
Terra alba, or white earth, is used to
adulterate white sugars, cream of tartar,
and other commonlY used articles. Its
use tends to produce disease of the kid
neys, bladder and stomach.
Writes Mr.. Labouchere: / arrived at
Milan from the Lake of Como. felt
the symptoms of malaria, and, instead
of sending for doctor, shut myself mp
in my bedroom for two days and two
nights, during which time my only nour-
ishment was lemonade. Y This regime
entirely cured me. Were>those who
catch any malarial fever to pursue the
same course they would find it worth all
the prescriptions that doctors ever
wrote.
DIR. Guillasse, of the French navy,
reports that in the early stages of ty-
phoid fever coffee is almost a specific
against typhoid fever. He gives it to
adults, two or three tablespoonfuls of
strong, black coffee every two hours, al
ternating with one or two teaspoonfuls
of claret or Burgundy wine. The bene-
fetal effect is immediate. A little lem
onade or citrate of magnesia should be
given daily and after awhile little qui-
nine.

The proclamation of king of Poland
could not be made without the free and
undivided consent of every member of
the nobility. At the coronation of
Ladislaus, the eldest brother of King
Casimir, the primate having demanded
of the nobility whether they accepted
that prince, one of the inferior nobility
replied that he did not. When he was
asked what objection he had to Ladis-
laus he replied that he had none, except
that he did not wish him to be king,
and persisted in this for more than an
hour, during which time he necessarily
delayed the proclamation. At length he
threw himself at the kings feet and
said: ct only desired to see whether
my country was still free. am now
satisfied, and give my suffrage for your
majesty"

A man who was too poor to indulge
in any luxuries other than children was
presented by loving but unreckoning
wife with triplets-three boys-and he
sought for some family to adopt them.
Mr.. Clark was rather inclined to take
them, but his good wife thought one
would perhaps be enough. They were
talking it over before their little eight
year-old daughter, who said; "Why
don't you take one of them, ma, or don't
they want to break the set ?"

Grand JuYU Report.

CUMBERLAND, Jan. 12, 1881.
To tie Honorable, tie Judges Of tile Clrcnit
Court Of AAegany County:
THE Grand Jury respectfully represent
Il that they have examined all the wit
nesses brought them, 1879 in number; have
carefully weighed all the testimony pre-
sentcd for their consideration, from which
they have made so presentmerts, upon
which II indictments have been found.
They have found a number of indictments
for violation oi the license laws of the
State. From the evidence before them
they are satisfied that in some instances
these violations, for which indictments
have been found, may have occurred
through the ignorance OF the parties Of
tending, but as the evidence of such vio-
lations was plain, the jury did not feel
warranted in dismissing these cases en-
account of sucl ignorance.
A case wherein certain citizens of the
county are under suspicion OF having com
mitted a very serious crime, has been
brought to the attention of the Jury.
They have carefully sifted all the testl-
mouy in the case brought before them and
have used every means in their power to
secure further evidence. They lave been
unable to secure sufficient evidence to
warrant them in finding true bill against
the accusec, although there remains in the
minds of the jury strong presumption
of their guilt and the jury hope that the
authorities will be able to secure such fur
ther evidence as will enable the next
grand jury 10 Lring tho offenders to jus
ti.e.
The jury have visited the almshouse and
jill. They find the amshousc in good
condition and The inmates generally well
cared for here are 2S males, 81 males,
10 children, transien .; total, % nmat $
in the alnishouse. We recommend that
more furniture be provided The iaI ~
iii excellent condition, HE inmates well
cared for and evcrvt ing clean and in
good order We find the courthouse, in
all its departments, in good condition and
c.eanly.
Having attended to all matters brought
before them, the jury respectfully ask to
be discharged. w. Ii. LEFEVRE,
