How may We drown a sorrOw
That hAI allied our hearts with pain,
And once more taste the Joys OF life,
Like sunshine after the rAinT'
We ask, and a sweet voice answers
That seemeth 70 know our need:
II the world seems drear, with no true friend
near,
Then sit you down hnd-read
III q bruised heart makes you sorry.
II a lost love makes you sigh.
And your little bark seems almost wrecked,
Is the restless waves beat high,
Read, read, as you turn the pages
of another's stored wrong,
And yours may rem but an idle dream.
Hope singing her sweetest song.
Fen In the realm OF fiction, r
With Joy and sorow rife,
There "a not a story told but hath
It's counterpart in life;
They will teach you hops and patience.
They will take you out Of yourself;
There are few, few friends like the silent ONES
Piled up on the quiet shelf.
And when your needs are deeper
And no earthly aids suffice,
When you can but raise your fearful eyes
Up toward the bending skies,
Then seek this quiet study,
This coolest Of nookR,
And read and read, in this your need,
From the grand old Book of booksi'

A Rsal Romance.


A marriage license was issued at
GAINESVILLE recently toWilliam +. Dayton
and Charlotte Epler, and thereby real
romance Is unfolded. Mrs. Epler is a
young and handsome widow, and has
been employed as tailoress by w. NJ.
Reich & Sons. While finishing q suit of
clothes year since, which was ordered
from California, she mischlevously
slipped in the watch pocket note. to the
effect that II the wearer wished cor
respondent, he might write her. A let
ter came in reply; others followed, pro
and con, and finally a proposal OF mar
riage from the Pacific Coast lover. He
is railroad man at Needles, on the
Union Pacific, and in good circum-
stances. he offered to furnish. Mrs.
Epler transportation to the coast and
return, with the provision that she
lcould stay as his wife II she was salts
fed. His proposal was manly and free
hearted, and stated all his business pros
poets. But while Mrs. Epler hesitated
to reply, telegram came that he was on
his way to GAINESVILLE, and would call for
his answer in person. Mr.. Dayton ar
rived last week. That his trip was not
in vain was evidenced by the proceedings
in Probate Court, and he will leave with
his bride for their far Western home the
coming week. -t,sst.s "a rsuaI =

An Exprsss 1rain Goes Through a Trestle'
"a fearful railroad accident occurred at
Bolivar, Ohio, a small town on the
Wheeling & Lake Erie Railroad, about
fifty miles southwest of Cleveland. The
express train going south was running
about twenty miles an hour when II
struck q rtrestle that had been weakened
by the recent rains. As the engine
passed upon the structure, the timbers
gave way, precipitating the locomotive,
baggage car, smoker, and day coach into
the creek. The fall was only about four
feet, but the wreck was complete. The
train was not heavily loaded with pas
sengers, else the list Of deaths would
have been appalling. As it was, four
persons lost their lives, two others were
fatally injured and eight badly hurt.
The list of killed is as follows: Mrs.
Ada Hall, Sherroddsville. Henry Hill
and Miss Carrie Hill. both Of Shelby
County, Illinois. An unknow woman.
The wounded are: Leonard Whitman,
Marietta. Mrs Louisa Pepper, Stark
County, Ohio, cannot recover. Ira
Cowen, engineer, Norwalk. William
Gratzenger, Ada, Ohio. Charles A. Con-
rad, Massillion, Ohio, recovery doubtful.
William Hall, Sherroddsyille, Ohio.
William Graham, Norwalk. The wreck
was bad one and several persons re-
ceived injuries, though not OF serious
nature
