1.-THE PRETTlES1 GIRL"

Ne had such fun on Valentines Day
With the little girls who live over the way!
Teddy and I, and Jed and Joe,
Picked out the prettiest girls. you know.
And wrote EN- things about ''Violets blue,
And sugar is sweet, and so are YOU.
And only that Bobby said it was mean,
wanted to write: 1.-The grass is green,
And SO are you, and send it out
To a girl we fellows don't care about
But Bobby he's queer, and doesn't go
For fun ike the rest OF us chaps, you know.
Why, who do you think he chose to be
H i, ". Valentine a i Now, ii Ia been he;
II tell you about it, and you will find
That ever you want a fellow that's queer,
You'll get him in Bobby, never you fear.
You see we boys, we had all picked out,
As told you, the prettiest girls about
But Bob he said there wasn't girl
As pretty as his, and there wasn't curl
On any girls head that could half compare
With his chosen Valentines soft, fine hair;
And he said her eyes were whole lot bluer
Than any skies, and double the truer,
And that he was going to be her knight,
And take care of her always with main and
might.
He wouldn't tell us his Valentines name
Till the regular day of Valentines came
And Mamma had hers, and Sister, you know
of course from Papa and Sisters beau.
And he'd prove the truth of all he had said.
Aid where do you think he took US boys?
flushing us up at the leastest noise,
And making us promise not to laugh,
Nor quiz him. nor give him any chafr?
Why he opened Grandmamma's door. see
there!"
He said.
1t was Grandmamma, declare!
Grandmamma sitting and knitting away;
Sweet Grandmamma with her hair gray,
Lying all soft on her forehead in cur1s
Just as pretty as any girls.
And never noticed before how blue
We're Grandmammas eyes. O 1t was really
true,
AS Bobby had said, that there never were
skies
One bit bluer than Grandmamma's eyes.
So she was his Valentine he was her knight
And somehow we ali thought Bobby was right
When he kissed her hand, and cried, in glee:
Dear Grandma's the 'prettiest girl you see;
Of course chose her instead Of Mamma,
For she, you know, belongs to Papa.
But Grandpa's in Heaven, and SO l knew
That Grandma must be my Valentine true

Not Symptoms, but tho Disease.

1t would seem to be q truth appreoiable by
all, and especially by professors of the heal
ing art, that to remove the disease, not to al
leviate it's symptoms, should be the chief aim
Of medication. Yet in how many instances do
we see this truth admitted in theory, ignored
IN practice. The reason that HOstetter's
Stomach Bitters is successful in so many cases
with which remedies previously tried were
inadequate to cope, is attributable to the fact
that it is a medicine which reaches and re-
moves the causes of the various maladies to
which it is adapted. Indigestion, fever and

The wisdom of elaboration about the
admission of Territories into the Union is
not enforced alone by the nations sad
experience with Nevada. Most people
have forgotten all about it by this time.
but it is fact that nearly twelve years
ago, in May, 1874, the House of Repre-.
sentatives, then Republican by more than
two to one. voted by an overwhelming
majority to admit New Mexico into the
Union, and that only the conservatism Of
the Senate saved the country from having
the little band Of '*greasers' in that Ter
ritory welding as much power IN the
upper branch of Congress to, day al the
five millions Of people in New York.
The utter untrustworthiness of politicians
estimates Of population was strikingly
shown in the case of New Mexico. One
advocate Of admission in 1874 declared
that the Territory had then At least $780,
600 people. while the census of 1880
showed only 1865. The history Of the
country proves that the nation has never
regretted delay in erecting a Territory
into State, while in the case Of Nevada
it suffers serious harm from undue haste,
and in the case of New Mexico must re-
joics at its narrow escape from blunder
