When twilight on the PUSHES falls,
And threads the moon through night dark hal
When dims the far horizon line
And glow worms phosphOrescent shine.
Then comes in deepest hasso full,
Like believing of a rowing bull,
"Ah-rr-OOOmp, Ah-rT-ooomp,
Baa-aa-rroomp"
Oerhead the ghostly nighthawk fits
And in the woods in silence sits
The whip-poor-will, while round the lake
Soft on the shores the ripples break,
And sound there is none, save that call
Reverberating over all,
"Ah-rr-ooomp, Ah-rr-oOomp,
Baa-aa-rroompm
The tinkling cow-bells in the hush
No more are heard and in the lush
And coarse swamp grass the bul-frogs lie
While echoes far their cultural cry
Across the lily pads and cane,
AS some old obOes hoarse refrain,
"Ah-rr-ooOmp, Ah-u-ooomp,
Baa-aa-rroOmpW
And Pan among the signing reeds,
When night has told her starry beads
One after one, stands silent there,
While float upon the darkening air
Those unmelOdious, mournful notes,
Sent upward from Batrachian threats,
"Ah-rr- ooomp, Ah-rr-ooompl
Baa-aa-rroompN

Eastward the Star of Empire Wends it's
WnY.

An unusual sight to Eastern people,
however common to Western folks, was
presented on our streets last Monday after
noon. Three prairie schooners and six
horses, looking the worse for travel, passed
east along the line of the old Catskill turn
pike. The party occupying the wagons,
and mostly hidden, consisted of an elderly
ly man, his wife, two sons and one
daughter They were Colorado emigrants,
who, meeting with severe reverses, were
returning to their old home in Connecticut.
They were mistaken by most people for
gypsies. The story of these people, as
told to Austin Edwards, near whose place
they camped, is one of interest, and sug-
gests far more than its immediate details.
They had gone from prosperous, comforta-
BILE homes in New England perhaps lured
by the highly colOred representations of
Western land agents, to seek fortune in the
great West. They struggled against the
grasshopper plague, destructive storms,
drouth and thieves, until hope for better
times changed to despair, and lacking the
means to return East by public conveyance
they resorted to the primitive mode of EN-
igration, to find home, perhaps, on de-
serted Connecticut farm. Their return I'M
der such circumstances will quite likely
cure many cases of Western fever among
their acquaintance, and little time may
serve to dispel the illusion that success anC
the West are synonymous terms.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the dis
eased portion of the ear. There is only way to
cure deafness, and that is by constitutional reme-
dies. Deafness is caused by an inhamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have rumbling sound
deafness is the result, and unless the Inflammation
be taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by eaarrh, which
is nothing but an in1amed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case
of Deafness (caIsed by catarrh) that we cannot
cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
