Those WE LovE-HoH futile often
are our endeavors TO secure a happy,
prosperous or independent future for
those we leave behind US! In fact, it
often seems that extreme caution in
this respect defeats itself, The best
legacy of children is selfhelp. Bank
stock is nothing to it, That may take
wings; but the energy to which disaster
is only an incentive TO effort, that is Of
itself fortune. We look with tender
eyes upon those we love, and sigh to
think we may, perchance, not be on the
shore when they launch their barks,

DEATH.

Weep not that Death has barred his blade
And thrust it in the springing corn,
While bending stems that droop and fade
He marks and passes by in scorn.
Weep not that some make prayer in vain
To Death through all the weary days
His sickle reaps the noblest grain,
And leaves the tares beside the way.
Weep not to see his hand appear
And beckon DER the western sea;
The gallant hearts to us so dear,
o, Death, are dearer still to thee.
Weep not that strong young spirits lie
Oflight and life and love bereft;
Nay, weep not for the good that die,
But for the evil that are left.

No strong smelling essences are used in
connection with Borazel to conceal obnox-

ingredients used in its preparation. Its use
has given great satisfaction where some
things claiming to be the only sure cure
have failed Borazel is as harmless as it is
efficient Doubtless there are many other
things which are to degree useful in ca

Dull and Featureless Market with

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.
The stock market continues dull and featureless.
Prices this morning were feverish and irregular.
The changes were mainly the outcome of contests
between the opposing cliques for supremacy and
reflected nothing to the true state of the market
The bulls had the upper hand and steadily opposed
every attempt to depress values. They repeatedly
bid up the prices of the leading specuatves and in
frightening the shorts by threatening a squeeze
whenever the latter became too demonstrative As
a result of the trading prices at noon showed ad-
vances in two-thirds of the list ranging from Il to
rs per cent. The remainder were either unchanged
or fractionally lower. The Vanderbilts were the
features of the afternoons dealings. They all
actively dealt in and advanced almost every pur-
chase. Their strength and steady advance caused a
rush to cover and in the Last hour the market was
buoyant and closed at the best figures of the day.
