OBJECT:
This corporation has been formed for the Dur
pose of purchasing tracts of lands and subdi-
viding and selling them in small pieces, buy
ing water rights, etc
THE CAPITAL STOCK IS ST50,OOO,
Divided into $4,000 shares of SIS each. The
shares may be paid for in five monthly install
ments of s. each, and are worcestershire Sub
scribers may take as many or as few as they
choose.

profits warrant, reserving the original capital
always for reinyestment.
THE OFFICERS ELECTED
For the first year are: L. J.. LEWIS, Presi-
dent J. B. WRIGHT, Vice President; E
ALSIP, Secretary; C. H. HUBBARD, Treas
with B. U. Stainman and S. p, DOAN, form the
Board OF Directors.
THERE HAS LOHG BEEN FELT
The want of such an institution in our COM
munlty, as 1t opens an avenue for investment
through which those in moderate cireum-
stances can invest their funds and derive the
same proportion of profit as the wealthy.
TIL h PRO FITS
Upon capital so invested would be much
larger than if the money were loaned out at
interest, while there are no risks taken, as the
funds are invested in real estate-the safest of
all securities
LARGER PROFITS
Have been and can always be made by pur-
chasing large holdings for subdivision than IN
any other safe investment.

Gentlemen-I can cheerfully and truth
fully say that S. S. S. is the greatest blood
purifier on earth. In 1884 contracted
blood poison. Physicians treated me with
no good results. Itook half dozen differ
ent kinds of blood medicines. but, without
receiving any permanent relief Twas in
duced to try S. S. S. began the first
bottle with the gravest doubts of success.
1 had been so often deceived. But i'm
provement came, and continued its use
until perfectly well. l have since married,
and have healthy family. No trace of the
disease is seen. Swift's Specific did all
this for me, and / am grateful. Yours
truly, J. S. STRADER.

Oh where art thou my dear old book of poems.
Selected from a multitude Of pens.
with care and patience in my first loved homo.
Gathered from strangers and from many
friends.
How carefully through my treasures look.
And find no trace OF thee, my dear old book.
Where art thou now. perhaps in some friends
hanl
Whose thought may wander to this home Of
mine,
Whose eye is glancing DER each stanza grand,
Scanning parody or gentle rhyme
Years hold thee sacred to 3 memory
Who now is wondering thy destiny.
Within thy boundary Whittier sweety tells
OF love and kindness in that gentle breast.
Byron has pend his solemn last farewell,
And his forsaken Lady. her behest.
Amelia writes in love and brillianty,
And Clio whispers tenderness to me.
A mourners pathos for his Mary gone,
The wall of many years emigrant
His fondness for the long lost constant one,
Faithful to Ireland in his sad lament:
1T think see that little stile where we sat side,
by eide
The spring corn and bright May morn when first
you were my BRIDE"
Pages of varied intellect combined
Prose. poetry, and much to entertain,
Say wanderer, hast thou found mind
OF beauty, blending in thy vast domain?
May some kind friend this frail memento see
And send the valued treasure back to me.

A Thanksgiving Idyl.

Away back among the hills We go
We sight every defle and knob OF

play the wizard with our memory

of hound, the drumming Of pheasant.

shadow Of the long ago.
Here We are at the station. Away
we go through the winding village
streets, all changeless from age to
age. Broad acres of old neighbors,
spread out on every side, and smil-
ing plenty follows highways drop
from crested hills to sheltered wales.
The slanting rays of November sun
streaming in golden sple ndor across
thess familiar SCENES awakens not
that awe which fancy wove in chill
hoods lighter days. En-
The russell winds-swept earth about
has here, and there a sacred spot for
memory to linger over. We 60 down
to where the ancient echo answered
us from across the brook, as clear
and natural as yesterday, and shout
the names of our youthful compan-
ions, and it makes US start, as if the
spirit of our boyhood was yet wander
ing there among the alder bushes
and majestic oaks, glad to welcome
us home.
Now let the nightfall thicken and

Hark to the murmuring songsters
in the cedar groves. and gather the
chorus OF "Home, Sweet Home" in

in memory's waste.
Before the darkness thickens let
us cast lingering glances about US
for some one particular spot.
Yes, here we shared the rabbits

old glory, bathing with light these
hallowed scenes of childhood and
Thanksgiving. The mist which yes
terday eve settled DER our musings,
now vanishes; and through it we see
the faces of those who failed to meet
us at home. This light wind which
drifts the mist and faces away, is
surely some relation to death, for it
reveals to us a never ending horizon
All the old faces are familiar. aad
the orly strangers are the trooping,
laughing children, whose lightness
and joys accord with the moods in
spring us to-day. Ring out the
notes of Thanksgiving! Hang out
the lantern of Hope from the belfry
and let us assemble within the foui
walls of the little brick church before

There Is no cause for popular apprehension In
the supposed discovery OF case OF yellow fever In
this city. The wonder Is that our sanitary pre-
cautions have worked so perfectly as TO keep the
disease out Of Washington through the damp
August and September that have Just passed; and
n the present case turns out TO be all that its
worst appearances indicate, our people may better
congratulate themselves on what they have es-
capped than disturb their minds over this single
visitation Nearly every large city IN the Union
has had at least one suspicious case II not an &C
tual sufferer from yellow fever on its hands this
season; but there has been no epidemic In conse-
quence, and no reason why anyone, even the ply
