Pawning Her Boys CIotL es for.
Medicine.

A poor woman in Wales, whose boy had
been very ill for several years, had expended
all of her means to pay for medicine. AT last
the doctars gave him up and said he must die,
He suffered so terribly with rheumatism that
he could not be moved. One day some one
told her about the Mount Lebanon Shakers.
The evidence of the curative powers of their
Extract of Roots was so convincing that she
pawned the poor boys clothing to buy a bot
tie Of the remedy (Siegel's Syrup but now
she feels proud that she did so, for it was the
means of curing her son. The Shakers say
that this was the result of Indigestion and
that the medicine cured the Dyspepsia, and
that the rheumatism was only a symptom OF
the real disease. For Coughs the Shaker Tar
Capsules are strongly recommended.

The first and principal claim, that of Abram
Gaar, consists of a mortgage on his farm,
signed by Mrs. Paul, which cuts her off from
the homestead otherwise allowed by law. The
other claims are notes secured and unsecured.
The last three items are sums due to farm
hands for work done this spring.
THE ASSETS
consist of his farm of 1873 acres, which has
been appraised at $50 per acre, making So
$50, and personal property valued at $40, af-
ter all allowances made by law for his benefit,
making a total of $3.50. The excess of liza
bilities is thus shown to be about Sill ,009 :
These figures do not correspond with current
reports, but we publish them exactly as given
by the assignee, and they will probably not
be changed very much.
The order of Court has been issued for the
sale of the property, both personal and real,
at public sale, on the premises on Saturday,
June 9th. The farm is in every way a we'll
improved one and a desirable place for some
one, or for two purchasers desiring small
farms, as it has two complete sets of farm
buildings, and can be divided either north and
south or east and west.

One of our most noted writer's has said: ga

the evenings so late that the day has twice as
many golden hours as other men. He is to be
pitied whose house is in some valley of grief
with the longest night and shortest day. In
the sociallives of the men this world has given
us, we may see as in a panorama, the triumphs
and failures, the lights and shadows that fol-
low humanity.
Perhaps no single character affords a better
illustration of our subject than Napoleon. He
was raised to the highest honors his country
could bestow, and he also drank of the deepest
cup of sorrow. Who cannot, in mind, see him
standing upon the lonely isle of St. Helena
shading his brow with his hand.

O. b. SINNERS Resignation.

The Cleveland Leader of yesterday says: ''The
report is pretty widely circulated that Mr.. o. B.
Skinner, traffic manager of the Bee-line, will re-
sign his position soon. The rumor has probably
been caused by the fact that Mr.. Skinner will
spend the winter in California. Mr.. Skinner will
GO to the Pacific coast as traffic manager of the
road, and remain there until spring. During his
absence his duties will be assumed by other of
fcers. The future connection of Mr. Skinner
with the road will be determined mainly
by his physicians. If his health
demands longer residence on the
coast he will remain, and in that event, would
probably resign his position. For the present,
however. and in view of his possible absence
only during the winter the Decline company
will consult its own interests. and will not per-
init Mr.. Skinner to completely sever his connec-
ton with the road. AS the Journal first pub
lished the rumor above mentioned it is proper
to say that Mr. Skinner is personally responsible
for such rumor, he having stated without quail
fcation that on leaving for California he should
sever his connection with the road.
