ONE DAY AT a TIME.

one day at a time That's all Il can be;
No faster than that is the hardest fate;
And days have their limits, however we
Begin them too early and stretch them too
late.
one dag az time
It's a wholesome rhyme
A good one 10 live by,
A day at time,
one day az time Every heart that aches,
Knowing only too well how long they can
But rs never to-day which the spirit
breaks
It's the darkened future, without gleam.
one day ut a time When joy Is az height
such Joy as the heart can never forget
And pulses are thrObbing with wild delight,
How hard TO remember that suns must set.
one day at a time But single day,
Whatever its load whatever It's length;
And there's bit of precious Scripture TO say
That, according TO each, shall be our
strength.
One day at q time 'Tis the whole Of life;
All sorrow, all Joy are measured thereini
The bound OF our purpose, our noblest strife,
The one only countersign sure TO win
One day at o time
It's o wholesome rhyme
A good one to live by,
A day at time

THERE ARE RUMoRs in the air of an
impending strike among the employees
OF the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, which it is proposed shall be
more decisive of results than the con-
test of 1883, Eight hours work and
more pay is to be the basis of the
movement, if movement is made,
and the present season is said to have
been fixed upon because of the ex-
traordinarg necessity that win exist
for abundant, prompt and efficient

disposed to question the truth Of these
umors. Itwould hardly be patriotic
for the boys to strike at such an i'm.

tory Of the country. The people at
large would suffer from it to a much
greater extent than Jay Gould x Co.

GENERAL HARRISON was formally
notified Of his nomination yesterday
and accepted it in a brief, we'll
worded response, promising a more
elaborate expression Of his views at

GENERAL DUNcAN S. WALLER and
Mrs Walker have been overtaken by
an agonizing aflliction in the loss Of
their two children at Sea Bright, N.
j. The sympathy Of their many
friends in this city--a sympathy be-
yond the power of comforting ex-
preston, perhaps, yet sincere and
heartfelt to the last degree-will be
theirs. If we had more to give it
would be freely given, but the heal
ing Of so great sorrow can only
come through the amelioration Of
time and higher than human influ-
enCes.

We said we would tell
you something about Furni-
ture. Did you know we had
the best antique oak suit to
be had for $500? Look at
the dimensions:
Bedstead, 6 feet 3 inches
high, 4 feet 6 inches wide.
Bureau, 8 feet S inches
long, with a 22x2S inch
bevel plate glass. This is a
bargain, as you get an oak
suit nicely finished and we'll
made. Nothing like it in
the city for the same money
We have plenty Of them
now; don't think they will
last long, but while they're
here you can have them at
the reduction.
We called your attention
to our 45c Brussels carpets.
Many OF you read and
thought it was only an ad-
yertising scheme, but didn't
we show them to you when
you came to look for them.
Judging from the way we
have sold them we would
suppose you were more than
satisfied with the goods. We
have plenty Of them yet.
They're regular goods, and
you can't do better than buy,
if you want q Brussels at q
small cost.
Some of the carpet deal
ers will tell you we haven't
got the carpets. Come and
see for yourself.
We are not offering rem.
nants, but nice, new pat

Sold for cash or weekly
