and ! the few quiet, dispassionate, yet
not altogether commonplace Literary
remains, " which, upon behalf Of Ben
ny's affections and Phineas' everlasting
fame, ] have taken it upon myself to
edit.
There is world of common frailties,
Of human struggles, Of failures and
successes, of duties performed and I'M
performed, of merit rewarded and I'M
rewarded, called the wide wide world,
that one which the blue sky arches over
and which the sun lightens up and men
make productive of good and bad, as
the influence of the maker of suns and
worlds is felt or unheeded. There is
another world in this world | have
spoken of that each man wraps about
his own life; in it he may live prince
or pauper, as his own ideals are fixed.
Yet, whatever the circumstances in that
one world of his own making, he is
held in respect and reverence by his
associates. Thus it is, that in his own
world of individual making Phineas
Owens is to be loved and crowned by
his friend Benny and |, and all others
who may wish to join us. 1t is in this
world alone that he will be acknowl-
edged to have possessed talent and
genius for that other world is slow in
granting such high tributes 10 every
small musician that grows upward out
of day to twang his harp and mutter
his rhapsody. Patiently toiling and
struggling from morning till night, as
did the twentY.three other clerks whom
he called his fellows, Phineas Owens
sat at his desk by the window whistling,
humming, smiling, and, unknown to
any one, storing away in the Round
Tower Of his heart poems and SEN
fences to be jotted down at some other
time, rewritten, revised, and finally
slowed away in a sacred little box in
his sacred little room at home, perhaps
forever, if Benny and l had not verita-
bly, ''fished" them out and determined
to print them, now that his lips are
forbidden to protest, though we would
willingly have them do SO, if it would
bring poor Phineas back to US to tell
us again the beautiful legends of the
holy Mahrabarata and urge our too
practical noodles to devour the immor-
tai versical sermons Of blind John Mil
ton.
Benny has brought the budget of
papers, and we sit with the huge pile
before US almost happy, yet saddened
and sorrowful, for their author goes
away tomorrow to be laid in a South
ern grave. To see so much of his old
familiar penmanship piled up together
is rare treat, and we separate Essay
from Poem, letter from narrative, and
as Benny departs to kiss the dead lips
of our friend, who has departed so far,
l send my mad sentences on the ras-
cally political business up the dumb
waiter to the composition, pack the bell
boy off for holiday, bar the door, and
am left to Gull and assert, to clip and
paste Phineas Owens MSS. upon my
own eolumn-long sheets of paper, that
they may read smoothly and without a
hitch when the type is set, the proof is
corrected, and the steam driven presses
are swiftly transcribing the impression
of the "forms" upon the sheets of white
paper, for busy world of people tc
read, cast aside and forget in their an.
ticipation of what the next days issue
may contain.

CURE FOR PILES.

Piles are frequently preceded by sense
of weight in the back, loins and lower part
of the abdomen, causing the patient to sup
pose he has SEINE affection of the kidneys or
neighboring organs. At times symptoms
of indigestion are present, as tiatulency, un-
easiness of the stomach, etc. A moisture,
like perspiration, producing a very dis
agreeable itching, after getting warm, is a
common attendant. Blind, Bleeding and
Itching Piles yield at once to the applica-
ton OF DIR. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected, alb
sorbing the Tumors, aliaying the intense
itching, and affecting a permanent cure.

sickness. AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases and should be

Tie Hurley NJ. E. Church.

Marion Junction, Feb. 24.-Edltor
Herald: At a meeting of the board of
trustees of the NJ. L. church, held at
Hurley last Monday, the following reso-
luton was adopted:
Resolved, That with our present sub
scription list we see our way clear to
build a church in Hurley, to cost one
thousand dollars.
A building committee was appoint
ed; and now will you suffer a few rea-
sons for Methodist Episcopal church
in your town. All reasons that are adj
vanced for building churches apply to
this, and further:
1st. The Church Extension Society
will put in almost as much money as
the citizens contribute, and thus we
can use capital from abroad in building
up the town.
End. With this church built, Hurley
VIII become the head of a circuit, and
thus appear each yearin the conference
meetings. The town will become the
base of effort by this church throughout
the central portion of the county, as
Parker is on the north and Centrev1llt
on the south.
Sd. 1t will attract settlers who de
sire the religious influence of this de
nomination.
4th. The plan now selected Will b
an ornament to the town; and if sub
scriptions warrant it a better plan still
1 will be selected.
These are a few of the reasons 70
this enterprise, which, you will doubt
less see, bear on the future of Hurley
Yours, T. a. BUEDIcK.
