For centuries it has been contendedthat cough
medicine to be effective must contain morphia,
opium, OF some other equally dangerous drug, and
to-day nearly every cough mixture In the market
has for Its base some one Of these deadly poisons
A purely vegetable and at the same time efica-
cious cough cure has been conddered an 1mposst
bility The harmful and at times fatal results At
t. nding the use Of morphia and opium cough
mixtures are o. common occurrence everywhere,
and in every part Of the Union deaths have, 60
cording to the testimony Of physicians and coro-
ners, resulted from the use Of these dangerous
preparations. It b for this reason that the medi
cal authorities and leading public men speak 30
enthusiastically ofthe importance and value the
discovery of Red Star Cough Cure. Gov. McLane
and Attorney General Roberts, Of Maryland; May
or Latrobe and Postmaster Adreon, Of Baltimore,
and other wellknown officials of Federal, State
and municipal governments have publicly certi.
fed to the harmlessness and marked efficacy of
Red Star Cough Cure. Every one will find 1t Q

What did the sparrow do yesterday
Nobody knew but the sparrows;
He were too bold who should try to say
They have forgotten it all to-day.
Why dOes IL haunt my thoughts this way,
With a joy that piques and harrows,
H.. Az the birds fly past,
s1a And the chimes ring fast,
And the long Spring shadows sweet shadow cast!
There's q maple-bud redder to-day;
It will almost flower to morrow;
I could swear twas only yesterday,
In the sheath of snow and ice itlay,
With the ferce.wlnds blowing in every way;
Whose surety had 1t to borrow,
Till Birds should fly past,
And chimes ring fast,
And the long Spring shadows sweet shadow cast
"was there ever a day like to-day,
50 clear, so shining, SO tender"
The old cry out; and the children say,
With q laugh, aside: That's always the way,
With the old, in Spring; as long as they stay,
They find in 1t greater spendOr,
When the birds fly past,
And the chimes ring fast,
And the long Spring shadowssweets shadow castp'
Then that may be why my thoughts all day
zee am old, by the token
Are 90 haunted by sounds, now so sad, now gay,
OFT the words hear the sparrows say,
And the maple buds mysterious way
By which from its sheath 1t has broken,
While the birds fly past,
And the chimes ring fast,
And the long Spring shadows sweet sh adow cast!

A SWEET HEARTS SUGGESTION.

Pat Reilly was taking ride
On an elegant Summers morning,
And Kathleen sat close by his side,
Bright smiles her morning adjoining.
And she looked so tidy and neat,
He- figure SO plump and trim,
No girl half SO pretty and sweet
Had ever appeared to him.
Said Pat: "Your eyes are so blue,
And your lips SO temptingly red,
They're the purtiest ever knew,
And belong 10 the colleen I'd wed.
"Ah! darlin', if it wasn't this haste,
That's pullin my poor arms apart,
They would tinderly stheal round your waist
And yourself be pressed to my heart.
"For my loves that powerful indade,
Without you can not survive"

edge. The cry proceeded from that d.
rection and grew louder every instant
| Before he could decide On q plan of
action, there shot out from the bend in
the river what looked to him like wo-
man carrying bundle and skating for
dear life. She strained every nerve but
never once cried out. Next came wolf,
followed rapidly by others, which swelled
the pack to dozen, all ravenous, yelp-
ing, snarling, and gaining closely on
their prey. Rube raised his rife, fred,
and began to load as he had never loaded
before. The cries came nearer aud near
er. Great God the wolves were upon
the woman! It seemed as if no earthly
help could save her, when, quick as an
arrow from bow, she swerved to one
side, the maddened brutes slid forward
on their hind legs, and she had gained
few steps. Again she flew onward, and
again she tried the ruse of swervinp
aside, the man on the bank in the mean
time firing rapidly and picking of wolf
after wolf. A fresh danger arose. The
woman evidently did not see the abrupt
break in the ice above the falls, and the
dark swift current which lay beyond.
Perhaps she was too frightened to hear
the rushing waters. On she went, max
ing straight for the falls, the wolves al
most on her heels, and the mans voice
crying in terrified accents as he dropped
on his knees in the snow:
"Kate! Kate! My God, save her.
The woman was on the brink of the
ice, when she made sudden sweep to
one side. Nearly the entire pack, una
BILE to check their mad flight, plunged
into the water, which carried them
swiftly over the rocks, and Kate Wex-
ford was fleeing towards the river bank
where she fell helpless in the snow, her
baby in her arms, while Rube's rifle
frightened the rest of her pursuers away.
1t was some time before she could an
swer her husbands voice. When
strength enabled her to do 80, she arose
feeb,y in the snow, her resolution to 20
to her father as strong as ever, but Rube
took her hand, knelt down, and said:
"Kate, bear with me the last time. As !
God is my judge, l shall never again
taste liquor. This night has taught me
a lesson which l cannot forget"
Kate believed him and accepted his
promise. They started for Pineville, !

halt carrying his wife. When they ar
rived there Kate told her parents that
she had been dying to show them the
baby. and taking advantage of the moon

BACK AGAIN!
CELIA THAXTER.

The chill snow fingered, the Spring was late,
It seemed q weariful while to wait
For warmth, and fragrance, and song, and nov
ors.
But we bided our time, and with patient eyes
We watched the slow relenting skies.
Till at last one April morning we woke
To find we were free OF the winters yoke,
And rush of wings through the rushing rain
Told US the birds we're back again.
Joyous tumult we heard aloft-
Clear ripping music and futterings soft.
70 light of heart and so light of wing,
All hope of Summer, delight of Spring,
They seemed to utter with voices sweet,
Upborne on their airy pinions feet.
Dainty, delicate lovely things!
Would that my thoughts. like you had wings
To match your grace, your CHARM your cheer,
Your fine, melodious atmosphere!
Precious and beautiful gifts of God,
Scattered through heaven and earth abroad!
Who, ung-steful, would you do wrong,
Check your fight and your golden song?
o friendly spirits! o sweet. sweet birds
Would could put my welcome in words
Fit for such singers as you 10 hear,
Sky born minstres and poets dear!

Rube's Reformation.

Rube Wexford ought to have been g
happy fellow. He was certainly con
sidered one on the day when Kate Wilde
became his bride. He was the envy o.
every young man in the rude western
hamlet where the ceremony took place
and many were the good wishes shower
ed on the heads of the newly-wedded
pair for their future happiness and pros
perity. Still there were those who not
only insinuated but boosted that the
helpmate of her choice was unworthy
the woman he had won. Kate's father
and mother were particularly opposed
to the match and did all in their power
to prevent it, but the girl, besides her
unwavering love, possessed determined
will which, when once aroused, carried
much before it. RUDE Wexford was
never accounted q strictly temperate
man. Indeed, there had been times be-
fore marriage when he was for days I'M
der the influence of liquor, and Kate had
seen him in that state, and therefore
knew fully the extent of his weakness.
But the woman loved the man, and
within herself resolved that his reclsma.
ton should be her duty. That success
must crown her efforts she little doubted
Autumn drifted away, the crops had
been gathered in and all the indications
pointed to an early and severe winter.
Rube's sprees continued. No wind was
too cold, no snow too deep to keep him
from Washburn's, q not distant tavern.
One evening in the latter part of De.
cember he took down his leggins and
gun from the pegs where they hung, and

am afraid to remain here alone"
"Afraid?" he answered. Such q thing
% fear was almost unknown to Kate
Wilde.
She clasped her arms around his neck,
whispered into his ear, her cheeks flush
ing brightly, then sat down in the rocker
and cried as if her heart would break.
Rube stood the gun in the corner, threw
aside the leggings and cried too.
The next morning when the Winter
sun beamed upon the cabin the little log
shelter held three souls instead of two.
A wee stranger had come in the night,
q bright-eyed baby girl. Her weak CIV
seemed to moye all the better part of
the husbands nsture, and his wife
looked on with . newborn confidence
in her face. After . week, when Kate
was able to sit up, Rube went to relate
