"And so this ends all then," said Clara

"this is the end of all, Hennery 2"
1t seems that you wish it to be the
end of ALL" said Hennery in tremulous
tones, as he stood gazing upon the fair be-
ing before him, the deadly pallor of his
face contrasting strangely with the ruddy
glow of the surroundings
why did you deceive me?" she
asked passionately, as she drew her figure
to it's full height and faced her perjured
lover with the light of Knocked woman
hood glowing in her indignant eyes.
Why did you deceive me?"
did not deceive you," said Hennery,
gently but firmly, while he bit his lip till
the blood came into his cheeks.
"Didn't you promise to bring the roller
skates tonight p she hissed, with all the
frenzy of a deceived and deeply-injured
woman.
81 did," he replied in manly tones,
driven at last to defend himself; did !;
but | had forgotten that you were ma
tive of Chicago, and that you required a
ffteen-inch skate. Clara" he cried,
breaking down under the tide of feeling
that swept over him, "Clara, l couldn't
get pair large enough to fit you, but l
gave the order to have pair expressly
built for YOU"
Hennery," said the maiden in voice
choking with emotion, "I have wronged
you. Forgive me. We may be happy
yet"
You bet," said Hennery, as he
dropped into an easy chair.
Thus are gloomy clouds of misunder
standing often dispersed by the glowing
sun of frank explanation.

To greet the gladsome light
That hlls with fragrance hs gay cup,
And makes its petals bright,
so may our hearts look mp to Thee
Oh God, our sun, our spring!
And every grateful faculty
To Thee its glad song sing!
For tables bountlfully spread,
For homes, and hearts that love,
For every good that crowns our head,
For hopes that lure above,
For all the streams of good that flow
Down from Thy distant rills,
We thank Thee; for they come we know.
From Thine eternal bills.
We thank Thee for the friends still ours:
We thank Thee none the less
For those we have had, though their powers
Our lives no longer bless.
For like meteor in the sky,
Though they have gone from sight,
Their passing trail still greets the eye,
And makes our night sky bright.
Teach us to hear the songs of life;
Teach us to see its beauty;
Oh make US manly in its strife,
Nor ever deaf to duty,
And since whate'er we have was given,
And still by right ie Thine,
Teach us that earth is kkest heaven

That's a common express
sion and has a world of
meaning. How much suf-
fering is summed up in it.
The singular thing about
it is, that pain in the back
is occasioned by SO many
things. May be caused by
kidney disease, liver COM
phint, consumption, cold,
rheumatism dyspepsia over
work, nervous debility, &c.
Whatever the cause, don't
neglect it. Something is
wrong and needs prompt
attention. No medicine has
yet been discovered that
will so quickly and surely
cure such diseases as
BRowN's IRON BITTERs, and
it does this by commencing
at the foundation, and max
ing the blood pure and rich.
VIM. P. Marshall, of Logans-
port, Indiana, writes: MY wife
has for many years been trou-
bled from pain in her back
and general debility incident
to her sex. She has taken one
bottle Of Browns Iron Bitters,
and l can truthfully say that
she has been SO much benefited
that she pronounces it the
only remedy of many medi-
cines she has tried"
