When she comes home again! A thousand
ways
fashion TO myself, the tenderness
OF my glad welcome; / shall tremble-
yes;
And touch her, as when first in the old
days
I touched her girlish hand, nor dared up
raise
Mine eyes, such was my faint hearts
sweet distress.
Then silencei and the perfume Of her
dress;
The room will sway little. and haze
Cloy eyes ght-sOulsight eveu-for a space;
And tears-yes; and the ache here in the
throat
To know that so i'll deserve the place
Her arms make for me; and the sobbing
note
stay with kisses. ere the fearful face
Again is hidden in the old embrace.

In China, according to Jesse Herbert,
late legal adviser to the government of
South China and professor of law
in the University of Canton, Of
ficials are held responsible for
the conduct of the community. If
son has murdered his father not only is
the murderer cut in pieces, but the
house is pulled down and the ground
dug up to depth of about six feet.
All the neighbors, moreover, are pun
ished, the boys headmaster is be-
headed, the magistrate loses his place
and the higher officials are reduced
three degrees in rank
There are two officials TO each post,
in order that one might spy upon the
other, the rule being that no official
shall report what he has done, but
only what the other has done. From
the highest official to the lowest all
practice a system of unblushing rob-
berry. called squeezing" The salary
of viceroy in some cases is $50 a year;
he regularly draws not less than
$4,000. The salary of a judge is $40 a
year; he regularly draws at least
&, 900. There are ], 200 police in Can
ton, not one of whom receives wages,
and yet the Office is much sought after.
The fact is, we are assured, that the
police are on excellent terms with the
guild or fraternity Of thieves, and they
work tremendously together. By the
code boy under 10 cannot be pun
ished. What the Chinese do is to pop
him into prison and keep him there
until he is 10. If Mr.. Herbert were
asked to summarize the government of
China he would say the people are
communists, managing their own af-
fairs, ruled by despot whose admins
tration is democratic and whose adj
ministrators are liars, thieves and ex-
tortioners.

DEATH OF MISS MARY Harlan
Died at 2 o'clock on the morning of
Thursday, the 9th of Feb, at the
home of her sister, Mrs. M. H.
Stribling, on East Burke street, Miss
Mary Harlan, aged fifty-eight years.
Thus closed perfectly rounded
life. With her it was the third
watch, when the Lord came, but He
found her waiting, her lamp trimmed
and her light burning. " Verify /
say unto you that He shall grid Him
self. and make them to sit down to
meat, and will cone forth and serve
them" Luke XII; 1888. 1t is bless
ed thus with her for He found her so,
and we are sure that He is now full
filing His promise and serving her
with the rich viands of His love in
the kingdom of heaven. One who
watched her while she lay dying
said, "There GIBBS out a life that was
better than all the precepFs." But
it was because of the precepts of the
gospel of Christ that her life was so
lovely. She was a child of the COW
nant-born into the family of God
an heir of the promises. We who
knew her best knew how she fed her
self upon Gods law, and delighted
herself in His commandments, train
ed thereto by her godly father and
mother, nourished in the admoni-
ton of the Lord. Hers was not
form of outside piety, too sweet to
be wholesome, but like the perfect
flower, the sweetness was the essence
as well as the aroma of her life
Sometimes God chooses a vessel of
clay, unsightly and rough, to hold
His grace, but in this case it was
His will to chose one of the finest
gold, and to fill it with His love I'M
til all who beheld it could but give
thanks for the precious privilege.
Now, exalted to the right hand of
her heavenly father she would not
have us take from His glory to give
1T to her. Her song and let us
echo it, is, 1t is all of gracen She
was well named Mary, for her hu-
mility was her browning grace.
Farewell, sweet soul, farewell.
At thy pure passing fell
On us sadness strange, like that of these
whe yearn,
And long TO welcome back, one who will
ne'er return;
To us is all the gloom,
tn thee ma chapun h ~,
Like her of Bethany, to thee twas but to
move

dear feet above. IN, w.

There i more Catarrh II This sec.

There is more Catarrh in this sec.
ton of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it q local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoon. 1t acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails
to cure. Send for circulars and ties

The MARr1NsBuRa STEAM LAUN.

The MARTINsBURG STEAM LAUN-
DRY BURNED TO THE GRoUND.-Short-
ly after 2 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing an alarm of fire was made at the
office of the city hall, and awoke the
slumberers of the city to witness the
work of devastating flames. 1t was
soon ascertained that fire had bro
ken out in the furnace.room of the
steam laundry, at the foot of Queen
street hill, at the stone bridge, and
IN few minutes the whole neighbor-
hood was lit up by lurid sheet of
flame. The building, a frame one,
was almost totally afire before any
person reached the place. Mr.. j. F.
Thompson vas fortunate enough to
secure the books and several other
things from the Office before the
flames had enveloped it. Notwith-
standing the efforts of the fire de-
partment, the building, with all the
contents, was burned. The loss will
reach considerably over $4,000,
which is covered by insurance to the
amount of $4,000. Messrs. j. G.
Frazer, Robt. Miller, Jas. F. Thomp-
son and Stuart w. Walker are the
chief losers. Mr.. Thompson's sta
BILE, adjoining the laundry, was also
burned, and his loss on that will
reach $500 or $500. 1t was with eff
fort that Mr.. Thompson's residence,
south of the laundry, was saved; and
a fortunate thing il was that there
was no wind. or the south end of the
town might have been destroyed.
