-CATAREH-Without assuming to writ,
out thesis OF this universal ailmeut, fact
warrant our saying that it seems to u,
there never was a season when il was Sc
prevalent as at the present.
The above is preliminary to the follow.
ing, viz; That Messrs. Hood & Co., of Lo,
well, believe that the best way to to gel
permanent relief, is through the blood. A
conslitu Iional disease requires a cous,itu
tional remedy. Hoods sarsaparilla is a
blood purifier and constitutional medicine
that can be relied upon, aul has cured
numerous cases of catarrh IN its various
forms. We think this claim reasonable
one and gladly give it room IN our

4 TINY SHOE.

The found him by the roadside, dead,
A ragged tramp, unknown;
His face upturned in mute despair,
His helpless arms out-thrown.
The lark above him sang his song
OF greeting to The day,
The breeze blew fresh and sweet and stirre,
His hair in wanton play.
They found no clow to home or name,
But tied with ribbon blue
They found package, and it held
A baby's tiny shoe.
Half worn and old, a button off,
ltseemed a sacred thing;
With reverence they wrapped ii close,
And tied the faded string.
And lald it on the peaceful breast
That kept the secret well;
Aud God will know and understand
The story it Will tell
Of happy times and peaceful home
That dead tramp sometime knew,
Whose only relic left him was
That tiny baby's shoe.

GRANDMA'S S11RATEGEM.

lying n an ancient couch, drawn close
to tho open window, was an old white
haired lady. while leaning caressinglY
ogrnst her were two young children.
Il was tho time Of war and tumult,
when the Prussians were making France

a sound of hurrying footsteps coming
up the uncarpeted stairs reused their al
ready awakened fears, and the door
opened to admit their only maid.
"The soldiers--they are hearing here
If You wish TO snve master and those

After a few minutes Raoul de Montfort
entered.
My SON. Nine de Montfort said,
tremulously, 'you must leave here as
soon as possible, lam too old and in
firm, the children too young to bring
their anger upon our heads"
Reluctantly, yet impressed by his
mothers words, the young man left the
room, but soon returned to bid adieu to
his loved family.
After tend,rly embracing her Raoul
kissed the children passionately and
quilted the room.
For some time they sat in breathless
silence.
Presently the sound OF heavy tramp
ling Of men aud horses broke the still
ness, and they saw, with great alarm, a
band Of dusty, fierce.looking soldiers en-,
tering the grounds.
"They are here. Now for all our
courage" the old lady murmured saud-

words his grandmother had hidden him,

threatened with glittering sabers, give
any other response.

When Grace recovered from the deer
swoon into which she had fallen, at first
she could not remember where she was,
but, as realization of her terrible situa.
tion flashed over her, she raised her
hand in mute despair and sank in
apathy upon the cold stone floor,
The grating of the key in the rusty
lock aroused her, and spriuging to her
feet, Grace confronted Tubare with a
calm, fixed gaze, which caused him to
culver and writhe as if under the iuAu-
ence of some superior power. For an
instant they stood thus, then, suddenly
recovering himself, Tubare darted for
ward aud cried:
Fair Isabella! Ha! my wife! my own
foreverr
"Neyer" shrieked Grace. Howard
Sinclairl Howard help! felp! help"
AS her agonizsd cry rang through the
vaulted chomber and out into the corri-
dor beyond, a scuffling sound, as of men
hurrying down the stone steps, was
heard, and voice cried;
Courage, Gracel succor is at hand!"
With yell of defiance, as of wild
beast brought to bay, Tubare rushed
upon Grace, a Spanish dagger cleaning
in his uplifted haud Ole instant be
paused, and then Howard Sinclair
sprang into the cell in time to catch
the faiuting Grace. while the officers
succeeded, after a desperate struggle, in
securing the maniac.
For weeks and months Grrce's life
hung by thread; but when once more
the light of reason returned TO the sweet
blue eyes Grace Allison's beautiful gold
en- hair WAS as white as snow
Howard Sinclair petitioned an early
day for their marriage, aud one sunny
morning in June beheld Grace Sinclair
start on her bridal tour.
Leonard Tubare soon after died in
stong conyulsions, and thus freed Grace
from the terrible feeling of insecurity
which had clung to her while Tubare
was alive.

A RIDE With A MANIAC.

Grace Allison was seated in her cozy
little boadoir, plunged in dreamy
reyierie.
Howard Sinclair! Yes; l love him
truly and devotedly. Leonard Tubnre
says that Howard cares only for my
money. But, pshaw! what goose am
As il Howard could be so mercenary."
So saying, Grace rose and LETT the
room to dress for her ride with Mr.. 1'u-
bare"
Gay and smiling, Grace stepped into
the carriage, and they were soon dashing
along the smooth road, drawn by the
proud.stepping bays. Ga their way
they passed Howard Sinclair, whose
honest face clouded over with pain and
anger as he beheld the Italians evil face
bending over Grace with look OF con-
scious triumph,
Grace suddenly perceived that Tubare
was driving toward an unfreuuented
part OF the woods, and .seizipg the reins,
she cried.
Mr.. Tubarc, what does this mean?
Where are you taking me? This is not
the road to the park! Tura back, sir, 1
com mnnd you'll
A wild, mocking laugh was his only
answer, aud obeying the voice of their
master the beautiful bays sprang forward
with lightning speed.
Turning to the terrified girl, who sat
speechless by his side, Leonard hissed
through his clenched teeth:
"Ah, ha! 1 haYe you now, my birdie!
Knowest thou, am Ferdinand. king of
Spain, and thou shalt be my Isabella!
Here is our palace Ny queen alight,"
and as Oracle, utterly incapable of ac-
tion, moved not, the madmau seized her
and bore her quickly into the old, desert
ed house, which had long borne the
name of the "IIaunted Grange" and,
touching a spring in the wall, disclosed
to view a narrow aperture, leading to
flight of steep stone steps.
Quickly descending them, he at last
reached a cell, in which he placed the
unconscious girl and left, after having
with insane cunning, removed every
article with which she might defend her
sells.

was one of the grandest affairs ever given by

brilliant Besides the members of the club,
invitations had been extended to over
500 guests, many elegantly dressed
ladies being present The president
who had received visits from few intimate
friends at the Fifth Avenue hotel during the
day, arrived at the club shortly after 9
o'clock On entering the hallway he was re-
ceived by William M. Evarts, the president
of the club, and members Of tho reception
committee, who escorted him to the large
hall on the second floor, where introductions
lasting over half an hour took place. The
president then inspected the pictures In the
art gallery, after which dancing began,
and lasted nntil nearly midnight, when an
elegant supper, prepared by the stewards Of
the club, was served. Among those present

The Gayhead disaster.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Jan. 25.-The re-
searches of the divers have completely dis
PEELED the theory that any of the Gfeless
victims of the Gayhead disaster are still in
the City of Columbus. The state-rooms have
been carried away, and only the bare shell Of
the steamer remains. The report of the
discovery Of the rocks on which the Columbus
had struck outside Of the buoy, and confirming
the captains story, was very short-lived.
More careful researches show the real loca-
tion Of the rock on which the Columbus
struck to be just beside the spot where the
wreck now lies, away inside the buoy, and
three miles out of the regular course of
steamers. Capt. Gibbs, of the United States
steamer Verbena, hEs discovered a
narrow shoal three and one-half fathoms
below the surface just outside the buoy, and
planted buoy upon it, but as the Columbus
only drew seventeen feet of water, she could
not have struck it.
