THE OLD Hymn N.

haH#H ."'
To-day, with quiet heart, heard
The prayer, the anthem and the psalm,
And gently on my spirits fell ri .ffl-n
The sweetness of the Sunday calm,
Till, at the reading of the hymn, Ll
With sudden tears my eyes were dim. :
That old, old hymn! Its sacred lines
Had fallen on my childish ears
My life turned back, unhindered by
The stretch of intervening years.
Near me my little daughter smiled,
And yet | was again a child.
Outside the winds were fierce and rough,
The Winters chill was in the air;
But | could hear the bonny birds,
And humming insects everywhere;
And feel, in spite of frost and snow,
A Summer breeze from long ago. ~. 81.
To find the place l took the. book,
And held it with a woman's hand,
While all my soul was moved with thrills
No other soul could understand;
And quite unseen, with love divine,
My mothers finger folded mine.
And not because the music rose
E~xu1tingly, Iheld my BREATH, y
LestSIs should lose its sweet delight
Upon her lips the hush of death
For years has lain!-and yet heard
My mothers voice in every word.
Full we'll l know the dead are dead,
Yet sometimes at a look or tone,
With short relenting, will the past
One moment give Us back our aown-H
@ happy pain! FOO quickly done-
As swiftly ended as begun.
..- -~. +-Mrs. George ArchibaH.

OBITUARY.

Mr.. JAMES W. ERNEST was born
in st. Rosa County, Fla. june 6.
1884. and died in Vaudeville, St.
Tammany Parish, La, February 13.
1886. He was married, March 81,
1884, and leaves a wife and q little
girl, aged about one year. The
ruthless hand of death has thus
taken a good citizen. a tue bro
ther, a kind husband, and a de-
voted father, from this earth, even
from the caresses and embrace of
his innocent babe. whose sweet
smiles, loving notes and tender
touch would hare wooed him back,
even from the dark shades OF death.
The deceased was q member of
the Church militant only eighteen
days, but. we trust, is in the Church
triumphant forever.
Upon his death bed he turned to
Jesus, as the source of eternal life.
After his baptism and reception
into the Church lie spoke of dying
with a resignation that was sub
lime, which is q source of consola-
ton to the bereaved. May they
think of him as one who. by God 8
infinite mercy. has joined loved
ones gone before, and whom they
may follow to that "better coun-
try" j. WILSON BRowS.

Everybody knows that the life Of the
avevage physician 10 q hard one. He 10
often compelled to ride great distances
through mud and rain for 4 merely NOM
inal fee. It is not fit nor proper for Us 10
condemn any physician for his work, but
We do assert that his practice can be made
the proper and judicious use of PERUNA.
If he will only add this great remedy to
his list ofmedicines he will find that his
usefulness will be greatly increased. Full
direction for its use will be found in the
"Il!s of Life" and he should At once pro-
cure this valuable book.
N. j. Wright, Business Agent Evening
Herald, Erie, Pa. says: "DR. HART
MANI can not but feel it my duty to
express to you my thanks for the great
benefit received from the use Of your
medicines, PERuxA and MANAL1N.
One bottle Of each placed me square on

which confined me to my bed, and then
left me lame and crippled. Three days

Mr.. c. H. Harris. New Vienna, Ohio.
writes "Our little girl was Paralyzed
ut thirteen months old, and we resorted
to everything we could hear Of for relief.
but she appeared to get but little better.
Hearing Of PERuNA we concluded to try
it, and will say it has done her great
deal of eood-the first bottle apparently
giving aid and relief. We have used it for
nervousness in other cases on other per-
sons and found it . success. For general
debility, and in fact for any disease, We
don't think anything else can at all com
pare with II. We have used forty or fifty
bottles, and our house is never without

ABITA SPRINGS.
PURCHASE OF THE PROPERTY BY WV.
HENRY, ESQ.

A meeting of the Abita Springs
Company was recently held ut the
office of Mr.. w. u. Coyle, in New

sidering plans for the erection of a
large hotel on the companys
grounds. the cleaning out of Abita
river, the construction of a railroad
from the Springs to Vaudeville,
and various other improvements
calculated to advance the material
interests of the parties concerned.
1t had been virtually decided that
the company would spare no ex-
pense in the execution of its plans,
but owing to some difference; of
opinion among the stockholders
relative to the manner of doing the
work, several propositions to "sel!
