Improvement, the Promise Of Cure.

No array of words can give dyspeptic
one-half the hope that comes from the relief
which always follows the use of Burdock
Blood Biters, and the promise of cure is new
broken.
ssHaving suffered from dyspepsia for two
or three years, 1 decided to try B. b. and af-
ter taking one bottle found myself SO much
better got another BOTTLE and after taking
that had no more need of medicine.
MRS. G.. G. WHITE, Taberg, N. Y.''
Don't pay for daily bread and then groan
with dyspepsia when bottle of B. 3. B. will
give you relief. Repeated tests with uniform
success prove that dyspepsia cannot with
stand B. B. B.
II have taken the second bottle of Burdock
Blood Bitters, and it has cured me of dyspep-
STA with which / suffered for six years.

LINCOLN'S GOOSE NEST HOME.

Near the graveyard where Lin
coins father and stepmother rest,
seven miles south of Charleston, ILL.,,
in place then known as Goose Nest,
the Lincolns made their final settle :
ment on removing from Indiana.
Here Abraham Lincoln assisted his
father in "getting settled" as they
called it. He helped him build a log
cabin and cleared for him patch of
ground, and when he saw him ''under
Roadway" in the new country, babe
him good-by and started north afoot
He fround employment not far from
Springfield, ILL.,, where the active
part of his early life. was spent
Though he did not linger long in the
Goose Nest cabin, he was there
long enough to stamp his Individual
ty on every heart for miles around,
and many are the stories told of his
sojourn among these people. 1t was
my lot to be born and reared few
miles from the early home of the Lin
coins, and the incidents I shall relate
were ElCkCQ up III conversation W1Un
the old settlers about our neighbor-
hood, all of whom knew Lincoln we'll
l was shown a bridge he helped to
build, and many other relics of his
boyhood days.
One very old man told me that he
once rode up to Thomas Lincoln's
cabin and inquired if he could spend
the night there. He was informed
that the house afforded only two beds.
and one of those belonged to a son
who was then at home; but if he
would get the consent of this boy to
take him in as bedfellow he could
stay. The stranger dismounted, and
soon found the boy in the back ward
lying on board reading. The boy
consented, and the man slept with
himathat night. The boy was Abra-
ham Lincoln, and the other never tires
of telling how he spent the night with
the future president.

Old Nursery Fayorites.

There was Tom, the Son of the Piper,
Jack Sprat, and Merry King Cole,
And the Three Wise Men of Gotham,
Who went to sea in bowl;
The woman who rode on a broomstick,
And swept the cobwebbed sky,
And the boy who sat in the corner,
Eating his Christmas pie.
These some of the old favorites, but
they have been supplanted by the "Pansy''
and Chatterbox'' stories, s'Little Lord Faunt-
leroy" and Five Little Peppers" The Old
fashioned pills and physics have been super
seeded, and wisely, too, by Pierce's Purgative
Pellets, mild, harmless and effective cathar-
tic. They are pleasant to take-so gentle in
their action that the most delicate child can
take them, yet SO effective that they will cure
the most obstinate clses of constipation,
stomach, liver and bowel troubles. They
should be in every nursery. AS q gentle lax
ative, only one for dose.

Possibly last Spring you considered
the question of painting, but finally
decided that you would put it over
until Fall, and perhaps until another
Spring. OF course,it is poor economy
to let the building go unprotected,
and you should at once consider the
question of colors and make up your
mind when you are going to paint,
then engage the best painter you
know of.
A few hints may be of service to
you.
Use nothing but pure Linseed Oil
Paint.
If two coats are to be applied to the
house, have the first one literally
thinned with Raw Linseed OIL
Be careful to see that the building
is dry, and never let the paint be APP
piled over wet wood.
Get the best and most durable
Paint, regardless of first cost, it is the
cheapest in the end.
Investigate thoroughly the quality
of the Chiffon Paints.
Probably you can find a. color card
of some dealer in your town, but if
you have difficulty, send direct to the
Chiffon Manuf. Co., New York or
Boston, and one will be sent you by
mail.

Beauties Of q Farmers Life.
The beauties of a farmers life

Til beauties of q farmers life
heard somebody say
Twas grand to work from early morn
Until the close of day.
I'm glad there's some who like it;
For me just count me out;
I've been there, and 1 know just what
I'm talking now about.
I've plowed on stony ground,
When it would make preacher swear;
I've MIXED and been kicked high and dry,
With milk pail in the air.
I've lugged sap in the sugar bush
Till I could hardly stand;
I've been hooked by an ugly bull
And butted by a ram.
The memories of that old farmhouse
That seem to some so sweet,
Where pudding, milk aid johnny cake
Was all we had to eat.
THE roof it leaked, the chimney smoked,
had no Sunday clothes,
My coat-sleeve was the only thing
On which to wipe my nose.
/ had to go barefooted
Over stubble through the field,
And hunt the cows with chapped feet,
And stone ruise on my heel.
Eve had steers turn their yoke and.run
nj smash things up, you see,
Before the tarnal fools would mind
To back, or haw, or gee.
I've farmed it, yes, I've farme1 it,
And the bright scenes haunt me still;
again in dreams hear the pigs
A-squealing for their swill.
again I'm learning calves to drink
Out of my old tin pail;
again they slobber over me
And beset me till quail.
I hope I've not offended
Any tiller of the soil;
But when think of that old farm
My blood begins to boil.
I've been bitten by gander,
By bum ble-bees been stung,
Upon that farm, that dear old farm
Excuse me, am done.

IN FAVOR OF BOYD.
Supreme Court Declares Him u Citizon
and Lawful Governor of Nebraska.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2. 49, The supreme
court of the United States has decided
the Boyd-rhaycr Nebraska gubernatorial
case in favor of Boyd. All the justices,
except Justice Field, concurred in the con-
clusion of the court that Boyd was u
citizen of the United States and entitled
t. the Office OF governor of Nebraska.
Justices Harlan, Gray and Brown con-
CURED in that part OF tie opinion which
held that Boyd was n citizen, because from
record in the case il must bc considered as
established that Boyd's father having ex-
ercised all rights of Il citizen, had, in fact,
in 1854 taken out his final naturalization
papers, notwithstanding he did not have
the record ot such final naturalization
papers.
The court also held that there was such
thing as collective naturalization; that
enabling act of Nebraska constituted n
naturalization Of all the inhabitants of
Nebraska at the time of its admission ex-
cept such as desired TO retain their foreign
rights, and that Boyd's exercise OF various
offices showed his intention to become
citizen. The court reversed the Judgment
OF the supreme court of Nebraska, and
ordered it TO take further proceedings in
conformity with the decision that Boyd
Is citizen.
