been under the care of two promne Mt

until he was not able to get around.

suaded to try Dr. King's New Discov-
cry for Consumption, Coughs and Colds
and at that time was not able to walk
across the Street without resting. He
found, before he had used half of a

THE republicans will use their
Doodle, now, to keep doubtful voters
away from the polls, in ''blocks of
FIVE" This will be their plan of
campaign. They hope to "hire'
enough voters to 'sstay at home" to
insure their triumph. This method
will cast suspicion upon many an
honest voter who may, unavoidably,
be kept from going to the election
But what care these unscrupulous
politicians about the reputation of
any person, so long as they score a
point? Let the democrats of this
county rebuke such methods by
turning out and voting. Let there
be no stay at homes among us.

THE MASTER AND T. RsApgRs

The master called to his rcapers:

And bring me the grain from the uplands
And the grass from the meadows green
Aud from on the mist-clsd marshes,
Nhere the salt waves fret and foam,
fsshall gather the rustling sedges.

fhon the laborers cried "Oh. master.
we will bring thee the yellow grain
That waves on the windy hillside
And the tender grass from the plain;
but that which springs on the marshes
Is dry and harsh and thin,
Unlike the sweet field grasses,
So we will not gather it H."
But the master said: 30 foolishl
For many weary day,
Through storm and drought, ye have Ia.
bored
For the grain and the fragrant hay.
The generous earth Is fruitful,
And breezes Of summer blow
where these, in the sun and dews of
heaven,
Have ripened soft and slow.
But out on the wide, bleak marshland
Hath never plow been set,
And with rapine and rage of hungry waves
The shivering soil is wet.
There flower the pale green sedges,
And the tides that cbb and flow,
And the biting breath Of the sea wind,
Are the only care they know.
They have drunken of bitter waters,
Their food hath been sharp sea sand,
And yet they have yielded harvest
Unto the masters hand.
80 shall We all, o reapers,
Honor them now the more.
And garner in gladness, with songs of
praise,
The grass from the desolate shore"
