June 25th, 1889.
On June 10th, information was re-
ceived at the Station that eharbon had
broken out among the mules in the
region of Yazoo City; kilograms stat
ing that over fifty deaths had occurred
already, and that all animals attacked
died within twenty-four hours. The
acting Veterinarian of the Station, DIR.
G. G. Creelman, was sent to the infect
cd locality at one, and within few
DAYS the Station had also secured the
assistance of DIR. Wray of the U. s.
Department of Agriculture, and Dr.
Connoway, of the Missouri Station.
The work of the latter is not yet
completed, but as the disease seems
likely to spread somewhat in the
swamp region of the State, 1t is
thought best to publish the following
treatment which has been almost uui-
formly successful when used promptly,
and also 10 indicate the common symp-
toms Of the disease.
PREVENTIVE TREATMENr.-All ami
mails should be kept in cool place
protected from the flies and other III
sects. When at work, care should be
taken that they are not ovcr-heated
and on returning from tho field al
night, they should be washed all oveI
with solution consisting Of one part
crude carbolic acid to twenty part'
water. One bucket full Of this will
bathe five animals. Give Internal,
one teaspoonful Of mixture contain
ing equal parts of sulphur, saltpctre
and cotton seed meal. This should b'
given in the food three times day.

LOVE AFTER DEATH.

They say il our beloved dead
Should seek the old familiar place,
Some stranger would be there instead.
And they would find no welcome face.
oan not tell how that may be
In other homes, but this know:
Gould my lost darling come to me,
That she would never find it so.
OFT times the flowers have come and gone,
Outlines the winter winds have blown,
The while her peaceful rest went on,
3 Aud have learned to live alone.
Have slowly learned from day 10 day
In all life'S task TO bear my part;
But, whether grave or whether gay,
hide her memory in my heart.
Fond. faithful love has blessed my way,
And friends are round me, true and tried
They have their place. but hers to-day
Is empty as the day she died.
How would spring with bated breath,
And Joy too deep for word or sign,
To take my darling home from death,
And once again to call her mine.
dare not dream the blissful dream,
It fills my heart with wild unrest.
Where yonder cold white marble CLEANS
She still must slumber. God knows best
But this know that those who say
Our bost-beloved would find no place,

Through years and years for one sweet face

feel himself welcome to visit Clsrice until q
better acquaintance was established, but
meanwhile the question of an engagement
must lie in allegiance.
Clarice was radiant No one who knew
him could resist Paul.
Mr. Cumberland was made acquainted
with the arrangement. He blushed win
try red and trembled little but acquiesced.
Rosamond tried to make amends by grow
ing languishing and tender. She was glad
to chaperone Clarice and her lover when her
mother was unable to go, provided MIR. Cum
berland made one of the party, which he
usually did. They were all upon the most
amiable terms now.
An engagement was finally sanctioned
and then Paul began urging a speedy mar
riage.
His persuasions were successful an ! day
soon after Easter was fixed upon. Mr..
Cumberland was active in every thing per-
tanning to the wedding, and playfully ex-
cused his offlciousness by calling Clarice his
ward"
The day before the wedding he asked her
to drive with him. During the drive they
stopped at pretty house and he suggested
that they enter it. Clarice hesitated, but he
assured her it was his particular wish.
They found it complete in all its appoint
ments, faultless in taste, and Clarice ad.
mired it generously.
She saw through the ruse and felt EN-.
boldened to say since he had taken her into
his confidence. II am sure fastidiaus as
| Ros almond is, she will be delighted with
| every thing.
A grim culver disturbed the smile on his
| face. but he did not reply.
When they had sufficiently looked it over
they went out, he locking the door behind
them. They halted moment on the steps.
| Suddenly he took her hands in his, laid the
key in it and closed the fingers over it with
a fervent pressure.
1t was her house. 1t was a wedding pres.
ent.
After the ceremony Mr.. Cumberland told
the bride as he quietly babe her farewell,
that he felt the severity of the Chicago
winter had taxed his strength considerably,
and he should go abroad for year. Rosa
mond is waiting now for his return.

Is madamoiselle troubled because the
opal is restored by fashion to high
favor? Surely not; for she must now
discredit all the i'll that she has ever
heard of this wonderful gem with its
heart of fire. The true legand of the
opal is not that it brings misfortune,
but that the possessor OF it is beloved
alike of God and man. So you may
wear your opal in content, and enjoy
its soft beauty with all your heart. sure
that it will bring you nothing but hap
piness. An opal that is rarer shan the
fire opal is the blue opal. This has a
silvery, blue charm in its marvellous
depths. which shades to cleaning gold
and the soft opacity OF the pearl. Heat
and cold seems to effect this GEM the
blue will be most intense in warm

ture it will be as softly silvery almost
as the moonstone.

misfortune. 1t may not represent SO
much in value as the other rings, but
it is one of the most important Of all,
or, at least, she must imagine so, or
she will not be quite In the
fashion. And, beside the moonstone
she must have one other stone

should never leave her finger. This
ring should hold the gem that rules or
represents the month OF her birth.

that with the moonstone may come
