of lime. By this system and process a full
combination of the salts of lime are furnished,
and as a cheap and powerful agent it beats

Donates of Lime exist here, perhaps, as no.
where. We use from three different stratas
or deposits, burn in separate furnaces, and
then mix and proportion it so as to act on all
kinds of soil and crops. This has never been
attempted by any other manufacturer. Our
rock and improved facilities exceed any other
in the state. Farmers will not need pound
of bone where this lime is used. Do not be
deceived or imposed upon any longer. Be
sure you are right and get LeGore's Com

and cheap land can be improved and full
crops grown. Furnished in carload lots to

AND THERE SHALL BE LIGHT.

MATTE BONNER, in Philadelphia (Pa.) Ledger.
o dark, so dark may hang the night;
dark, so dark without star;
No gleam upon thy longing sight
To tell thee morning comes afar.
Look up then, heart, and crush thy fear,
At darkest time the dawn is near.
The way oflife for thee may seem
An endless race from dawn till dusk;
For thee to wake while Others dream,
And yet the harvest-barren husk.
Toll on, brave heart, though others jeer,
At darkest time the dawn is near.
At darkest time when courage dies
And tears unto the eyelids we'll,
When frowning sorrow silent flies
To ring for hope the parting knell,
Then shall the wondrous light appear
At darkest time the dawn is near
We do not look for golden grain
When we commit the seed to earth,
All, no we wait till sun and rain
To mystic life has given birth.
Learn then to smile through toll and tear,
At darkest time the dawn is near.
For in my hearts philosophy
hold that conscientious strife
Must bring reward to you and me,
Both now and in higher life.
Though years may pass ere fruit appear,
AT darkest time the dawn is near
