IN THE DARK.

O, in the depths Of midnight,
What fancies haunt the brain.
When even the sigh of the sleeper
Sounds like sob of pain.
Asense of awe and of wonder
Imay never we'll define,
Tor the thoughts that come In the shadows
Never come in the shine.
The old clock down in the parlor,
Like sleepless mourner grieves,
And the seconds drip in silence
As the rain drips from the caves.
And think of the hands that signal
The hours there in the gloom,
And wonder what angel watchers
Wait in the darkened room
And I think of the smiling faces
That used to watch and wait,
Till the click of the cloc,; was answered
By the click of the opening gate.
They are not there now in the evening
Morning or noon-not there;
Yet know that they keep their vigil
And wait for me somewhere.

HANNAH SHELL, TIE AMAZON.

Hannah Smell hourished in the reign
of George II. Her grandfather was a
soldier who fought with Malplaquet.
She married early, her husband being q
Dutch sailor, who maltreatcd and de-
serted her, leaving her with baby,
which died, whcrcupon Hannah appro-
priated suit of her brother-in- laws
clothes, and assuming his name, which
was Thomas Grey, enlisted in General
Curses regiment. After while she
deserted, but subsequently re-enlisted in
the navy as a marine, in which capacity
she served in the East and West Indies.
From her dextcrity in washing and mend
ing for the mer, and from her being
beardless, she acquired the nickname of
'ssaIiss Molly" but her bravery in action
eventually caused her to be invested with
the more honorable cognomen of "Hearty
Jenny"
Being at last discharged from the SER

W0MAN'S WORLD.
PLEASANT LITERATURE FOR
FEMININE READERS.
A pAsHING HoRsEWoMAN.

The most dashing figure on horseback
that one sees in Washington is the wife OF
Senator Davis, of Minnesota. She is tall
and perfectly proportioned, with com
plexion of pure red and white, dark curl
ing hair, and big hazel eyes brimming
over with fun. She would attract atten-
lion anywhere, but on horseback she is a
least for the eye.
Mrs. Davis is out early every pleasant
morning, and has explored the country
all about the Capital. She has no horse
Of her own, but rides Senator Plumbs.
She has modelled for herself an original
riding habit. 1t is of Jersey cloth, cut
princesse, with a double skirt. She
wears high boots and rides at any gait,
but likes pacing horse best,-Cour'er-

HOW MARY KILLED THE BEAR

A queer case of bear killing is reported
from Sherwood, Calumet County, Wis.
A young girl named Mary Skilosky,
daughter of prosperous farmer, saw a
bear enter a swamp near her fathers
house, and the men folks being absent,
and she fearful lest the bruin might pick
up one or more of the young Polanders
who.resided near, determined to kill the
animal. There WAS no gun in the house,
but there was box. of Rough on Rats, a
quantity of which was deftly inserted in a
juicy piece of fresh pork and the bait
thrown to his bearship, who, being hum
cry after hard winters fasting, imme-
diately swallowed hook, bob and sinker.
The result was disastrous and speedy, and
in o few moments the beer keeled over
and the brave Mary proceeded to end his
sufferings by deep thrust into his throat
with a carving knife. The dressed skin
has been bought by John Roberts.-Ml-
acaukee Sentinel.

hardships she had undergone in the ser
vice of her country-which hardships
comprised, among other tribulations, 500
lashes that she got at the halberts, and
an almost equally barbarous scourging at
the gangway on board ship-the Govern
ment awarded Hannah a pension of S1O0

The Russian trotter gets neither corn
nor nothing, in fact, but oats
for two days before race, and is tied
up and severely beaten an hour before he
starts, so as to terrify him into going for
all that is in him, as the whips are not
allowed upon the course. For all that,

WEALTHY AMERICAN WOMEN.

There has recently been printed a list
of American women whose combined for
tunes aggregate the magnificent sum Of

respondent of the Chicago Tribune. Sixty
two women control this vast amount Of
money, divided as follows:
Thirty-eight widows, worth. ....-se1o, 900, 900
Fourteen spinsters, worth. ........ $4,000, 900
Ten married women, worth. 37,0oO,OOo
Total, sixty-two. o..........:... ...S5I, ,ooo,ooo
"Many millions of this vast sum of
money is locked up in diamonds" said q
prominent New York lady in discussing
these wealthy women, land the thought
occurs to me that these women might
rcvolutionize the commerce of the coun-

and struck something just behind his
saddle with IN unmistakablc tsput."
Evidence of gricvous pain and astonish-
ment appeared forthwith in the mule.
His backward-laid ears came suddenly
forward as for moment his head faced
round with an expression of deep and
reproachful surprise. His body bumped
together until it seemed as if the saddle
at the apex must go over the neck or
crupper. Then he headed toward the
wagon-train, aightened out and went.
And how he vent His first jump was
so sudden as nearly to leave his rider be-
hind on the prairie. His next was longer
and his pace kept improving all the way.
A line of dust explosions marked the spot
where his hind fces struck. As his body
lengthcned in long bounds the saddle
cinch fairly swept the grass, and all
Frank could do was to hold on, save his
breath and try to keep his toes from
striking the prairie dog mounds.
His two companions when halfway to
the train suddenly became aware that
Frank was not with them. Without
, stopping they looked back. They after
ward told him that they saw something
coming, on the dead jump, behind them.
1t went so fast that they couldn't we'll
make out whether it was a mule or a
panther that was making such surprising
speed, but could only see that it was
gaining headway at every leap. 1t over

AN INTERESTING LETTER FROM A
VETERAN.

A S this is Jubilee year it tends 10
n make one look back and think
of the flight of time, and in this way
/ am reminded that / am one Of the
veterans in the sale of your valua-
BILE and successful medicine. L
have sold it from the very first, and
have sent it into every country in
England and many parts of Scot
land. Well do l remember the
first circular you sent out some nine
or ten years ago. You had come to
England from America to introduce
Mother SeigePs Curative Syrup,
and was struck by paragraph in
which you used these words:-
"Being stranger in strage land,
l do not wish the people to feel that
want to take the least advantage
over them. L feel that l have a
remedy that will cure disease, and
| have so much confidence in it that
| authorize my agents to refund the
money if people should say that
they have not benefited by its USE"
/ felt at once that you would never
say that unless the medicine had
merit, and l applied for the agency,
step which now look back upon
with pride and satisfaction.
Ever since that time / have found
it by far the best remedy for Indi-
gestion and Dyspepsia l have met
with, and / have sold thousands OF
bottles. 1t has never failed in any
case where there were any of the
following OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES OF
sick headache, sourness Of the sto
mach, rising OF the food after eat
ing, a sense of fulncss and heavi
ness, dizziness, bad breath, slime
and mucus on the gums and teeth
constipation, and yellowness of TIT
eyes and skin, dull and sleepy sen
satlons, ringing in the ears, heart
burn, loss of appetite, and, in short
wherever there are signs that thu
systems is clogged, and the blood il
out of order. Upon repeated in
quiries, covering great variety o
ailments, my customers have Away
answered, ~ am better" or II al

dom or never seen before in tn
case of any medicine is that peopl
tell each other of its virtues, an

National INSURANCE.

The national insurance plan which
has been completed Ivy the German
Reichstag is said to be one of the
broadcast reforms ever undertaken
by any government. BY it insur-
ance against the most serious evils
of the working classes is provided.
BY the payment of u to 2 percent
of his wages the workman is sup
piled in sickness with medical at
tendance, and whatever supplies are
necessary, and he receives half his
usual pay, For complete disable
ment two-thirds of his usual wages
are allowed, and in case of death
the widow receives 20 percent OF
tho wages of her husband and each
child 5 percent in addition, up tc
60 percent. Over 100000 per.
sons will at once come under the
operations Of the new law, and all

business obliged him to expose him
self great deal to wind and wealth.
er, and he was seized with rheuma
tisln, and his joints soon swelled up
with dropsy, and were very stiff
and painful. Nothing that the doc
tors could do seemed TO reach the
seat of the trouble. 1t so crippled
him that he could do hardly any
work, and for the whole Of the win
ter of 1873 and 10, he had to give
up and take to his he'd. He had
been afflicted in this sorry way Tor
three years, and was getting worn
out and discouraged. Besides, he
had spent over fi3 for what he
called doctors stuff without the
least benefit. In the Spring he
heard of what Mother Seigel's Cura-
tive Syrup has done for others and
bought o %. Cd. bottle of me. In
u few days he sent me word he was
much better--before he had finished
the bottle. lie then sent to me for
As. Cd. bottle, and as l was going
that way carried it down TO him
myself. On getting to his house
what was my establishment and sur.
prise to find him out in the garden
wedding an onion bed. 1 could
hardly believe my own eyes, and
said:-
"You ought not to be out here,
man, it may be the death of you,
after being laid up all winter with
rheumatism and dropsy."
His reply was :--"rhere is no
danger. The weather is fine, and
Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup has
done for me in few days what the
doctors could not do in three years,
l think l shall get well now"
He kept on with the Syrup, and
in three weeks he was at work again
and has had no return of the trou
bic for now nearly ten years. Any
medicine that can do this should b,
known all over the world.
