But troubles may pcrpleX him,
And care and trials vcx him;
Remember God in mercy spares the

And in his wisdom purges the rest.
There are several on the sick list
around this quiet little village. Mrs.
Jacb Norett is quite under the weather
with a bad cold. We have this to say
half of man, more fine and lovelier.
1t is hoped that 10 serious Illness will
come to the above lady.
Mrs. VIM. Hopes Tor some time back
has been suffering wi ith the rheumatism.
We can sympathize with her in her suf-
iering, for we have been there. Rheu
matte pains make fellow grunt worse
than If he had the mumps. IL is hoped
that she may soon be restored to health
once more, for health Ia the handspring
of life.
There Is beech tree near here that will
measure four feet over at the butt. IL is
said TO be on the we'll known Mason &
DIXON line. Let that be as It msy, 1t is
the largest tree of the kind that we ever
saw Cor ever expect to saw There are
hundreds OF names cut on It, many of
them beyond redemption.
Ttere are in ClaymoDt old maids
plenty and bachelors, too. Some oil
these maids will soon show us poor
mott tai men the sign of spring, by pin-
ming up their dress and taking brush in
their hand; they Will fairly make the
whitewash fly. (Right in some bachelors
eyes.) Some OF our old maids and bach
lors, too, are good looking, and some are
ugly. But the ugllest woman we ever
saw banged the door, and banged her hair
and RUBBED snuff.

KANSAS CRY, Mo March 6.-Kansas
City has furnished Secretary Blaine with
probably his first official business with a
'oreign country. The facts OF an inter
esting occurrence which led to telegram
being sent from here by tie Humane So
ciety to the State Department this after
noon, are as follows:
A few days ago Mrs. Daisy Spellman,
young widow, made complaint 10 the
Humane Society that George Henry and
wife had left the city, taking with them
her IS months daughter, Lucy. She
thought that their destination was Man
chester, England. Five months ago
Mrs. spellman had arranged with the
Henry family 10 board aud take care of
her baby.
The theory is that Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
became SO attached to the child that
when Mrs. Spellman notified them few
days ago that she would take charge of
1t herself, they took 1t away with them
secretly, being unwilling to part with it.
The Henry family Is highly respected.
This afternoon Secretary Hackett, OF the
Humane Society, sent the following tele'
gram to Secretary Blaine;
To the Hon. James g. Blaine, Secre-
larry OF State, Washington, d. c.
George Henry and wife, British subjects,
left Kansss City last Wednesday via
Washington for New York. Their desti-
nation is Manchester, England. They
took with them Lucy spellmaD, aged 10
months, child OF American parente,
which they are carrying out of the coun-
try secretly, unlawiully aud against the
wishes of the widowed mother. Please
refer to the British Minister at once, that
he may cause registers of out going
steamers examined and prompt action to
be taken.

DANGEROUS USE OF sTauss PuaalTlvEs.

Most pills, purgstives and Bitter
w aters, which act quickly upon the
bowels, irritate aud often destroy the
mucous coats of the stomach and bowels
Indeed their cathartic action is directly
caused by the irritation of the bowels,
which they produce. Their action should
he soothing and stimulating instead of
Irritating. A continued uss of such reme-
dies produces chronic inflammation OF the
s. .omach and bowels. This often ends In
dangerous disease. The u'e OF the genu
ine imported Carlsbad sprudel SAT- is
highly recommended as an aperient,
laxative and diuretic, because its action
is due solely to It's eolvent and stimu-
latng properties. II soothes aud allays
inflamm alton, and is therefore much
preferable to all strong purgatlves and
Bitter Waters.
