IS IT CHOLERA?

The above head line is becoming fa-
miliar. The epidemic of bowel CON-
plaint on Long Island last fall, and in
West Virginia, Pennsylvania and parts
of the South during the past winter
and spring have each called it out, but
have been traced to local causes. When
ever bowel complaint has occurred it
has been so violent as to cause appre-
tensions of cholera, and the indica-
tions are that it will be more common
than usual during this summer. Eve
ry family should be prepared for it.
There is nothing equal to Chamber
lains Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, as shown by the thousands
who have been cured by it; besides, it
is pleasant to take. 1t is put up in 25
cent, so cent and dollar bottles. Sold

Bowling with gentle motion far and near,

Her subtitle witchery drawing hearts anear,
The whispering forest leaves. soft music playing

A symphony 50 sweet from woodlands straying,
Her soft voice cchOing rs a vague sweet
She could not tarry on this si''c the portal,

Far In dreamy cline, where soft skies bending
Their cioudless depths Of Heavens ETHEREAL

Borne heavcnward as the fragrance sweet as

Nor wished for her quick return;
But that her voyage might be long.
With many happy day.
Uncertain what their fate might be
They launched their bark upon that sea
In which are many fairy isles,
BY each OF which, II Fortune smiles,
The ship must pass.
Each island in that sea is green
No winter there Is ever seen;
And each from its own stores doth bring
Its treasures, worthy Of king,
To each ship passing by.
This ship has passed the Paper isle.
The Wooden and the Tin:
The Crystal and the China islo
Have each been taken in.
Aud friendly hearts did welcome her
At each island with smile;
And friendly hands did offer her
The products OF each isle.
The ship withstood the many storms
That rise among those seas:
And kept her course through wind and wave
For many happy years.
Nor did she miss, I'm glad to hear,
The squalls that come from year to year:
But with those squalls, and tears and noise,
And sorrows, too, came many joys.
At length you've reached the Silver isle.
Midway on the journey of life.
Amidst your efforts to reach success;
Amidst your cares and your strife.
The Wood. the Paper and the Glass
Have changed to Silver now;
The honest purpose Of your lives
Is stamped upon each brow.
BY honesty and industry
You've gathered more and more;
Each year has added to your gains
You've silver In your store.
You've silver from your many friends
That you see here to day;
While in your locks, so glossy once,
Silver has como to stay.
The young man and the maiden,
SO hopeful and so gay,
Who set out upon their journey
Twenty-Five years to-day,
In the midst OF friendly greetings
From the friends they hold so dear,
Have met their cares and sorrows
That have come from year to year.
Have done their duty nobly,
Where'e that duty lay,
And are here to receive the greeting
That we offer them to-day.
With their childen still around them.
With honors falling on them;
With the love Of all who know them
And the silver cord unbrOken
That binds them with US here.
Now may their lives be heightened.
And may their hearts be strengthened,
And may kind fortune Watt them
To the distant golden isle.
Fond memories will crowd them,
And h0nOrs hang around them,
And children's children bless them,
As fondly they caress them
And tell them many stories
OF the long and bloody war.
May Time deal with you gently
And touch the bark but lightly,
That 1t may land you safely
On the far of Diamond isle.
This life then soon will leave you,
The earth will vanish from you:
Then may the good Lord meet you,
And with this message greet you,
We'll DONE" ~ he receives you
Within the gates OF pearl.
The guests then came forward and
'ith haudshaking and many good
fishes, interspersed with numerous
isses from the ladies, congratulated
10 bride and bridegroom and their
wo daughters.
Then followed an excellent supper
nd the guests departed, wishing Mr..

ccasiOn."
