THE OLD AND THE NEW

Changes take place in the medical pro-
fession as in all branches of science. We
believe the greatest good will follow that
generous offer made by DR.. Greene, of "a
Temple Place, Boston, Mass, who invites
all persons far and near, suffering from any
form of disease, to write him a full eXpla-
nation of their diseases, with advice how to
be cured. He gives most careful and eX-
plicit attention to all letters and explains
each symptom so carefully that you can
not fail to understand exactly what ails
you.
DR.. Greene is our most successful special
list in curing nervous and chronic diseases.
He is the discoverer of that famous medi-
cine, DIR. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy, which is doing such a vast
amount Of good all over the world. He
uses nothing in his harmless vegetable
remedies, which can in no manner injure
you. This great system of giving cOnsulta-
ton and advice through letter cOrrespOn-
dence, free Of charge, is especially import
ant to the poor and those living at dis
lance from large cities, such as cOnsulta-
ton and advice we're formerly attended by
great expense. The doctor is hnving won
derful success in treating the sick through
letter correspondence, and if you will
write him about your disease it will I'M
doubtedly lead to your cure.

Lords Day Welcome.

AL hail to the day when the Saviour arose!
His work of redemption complete,
He rested in triumph dspite all His foes,
With glory Of kingship replete.
Cease, pilgrims, your toiing and Danish all care
The Sabbath has dawned-it is rest,
That all its communion and gladness may share
The day God has hallowed and best
Let reading and converse be cheerful and pure,
Reflection and worship be sweet
Let naught from holy observance allure
In by-ways your scrupulous feet
Responsive and joyous, exutingly sing,
Earth smiles in her garments of peace;
In glad convocation, devout homage bring,
TO him who has brought such release,
Our fathers the Pilgrims, heroic and true,
Devoutly remembered this day, [trod
They hallowed the sod, the first Lords day they

All hail to the day of devotion and rest,

VOLETS IN THE GRASS.

The blue wild violets in the grass,
They smile up at me as pass;
The tender hue of April skies,
They mind me of my baby's eyes,
MY bonnie little laughing lass
Amid the violets in the grassl
The bonniest babe was ever borni
Her tresses like the tasseled corn,
Her mouth the sweetest half blown rose,
Her laugh the merriest breeze that blowsl
Her eyes, what could their blue surpassy
Not e'en the violets in the grass.
All me! how plain | see her stand,
Her feet sunk in them, and her hand
Eager to pluck them all for me,
Her face aglow with baby glee,
Her fingers hidden in the mass
OF blue wild violets in the grassi
Again see her, laid at rest,
The violets nesting in her breast.
The waxen fingers, white and cold,
Still clasp them in their patient hold.
But know not now, alas, alas!
The touch of violets from the grassl
Soft Graded on a sunny slope,
Watched by twin angels, Faith and Hope,
My pretty baby sleeping lies;
And as it were her own sweet eyes
Smile up to greet me as pass
The blue wild yiolets in the grass.

The Dream of Years May Finally BE GIo-
riously Realized.
We have constantly deplored the want
of reliable information regarding Lipp-
mann's process of obtaining color photo
graphs and the recent notifications and
improvements of Valenta, Lumiere and
Others. The process has been given and
the results shown before the recent CON
gress Of the Photographic society of Great
Britain. Mr. Warneke describes the proc.
ess as follows:
Two years ago Mr.. Lippmann succeed
ed in producing an image Of the solar
spectrum in its true colors. This was done
by gelatino-hromide plate, so weak in
its composition as to be almost transpar-
ent. The sensitiveness of the plate was
increased by immersion in n bath of sill.
yer nitrate and drying. The plate was in
serted in the camera, glass side toward the
lens, and the film in contact with mer-
curry. The projected rays Of light We're
thus met by the rays reflected from the
mercury, and the phenomena of interfer-
ence-upon which the whole process is
based-was produced.

These mighty trees with their centuries
OF miracles of wood,
Like their sircs who stood before the flood,
Mock at mems perjuries.
Under the screen of this forest green,
Unheeded By human eye,
The passions die like sounds in the sky
And my spirit walks serene.
The shining sun may his journey run
Through sky of cloudless blue,
Yet the moving hue of the fragrant dew
Here waits like kiss unwon.
The winds may blow or their flights forego
On the treeess pain and hill;
Here all is still save the tinkling rill
Or a bird note lone and low.
Here the squirrel peers with uplifted ears,
And the rabbit stops to stare,
And the woodmice dare TO seem to scare
And jest with their own fears.
Wis q precious boon on summer noon
Through the ancient aisles to stray,
Where the shadows play like wood nymphi
gay
While summer takes off her shoon.
The sounds which jar, the things which mar
The ills which sting the heart,
Here have no part or lose their smart
From the babbling world afar.

There is many II trouble
Would break like bubble,
And into the waters of Lethe depart;
Did we not rehearse 1t
And tenderly nurse it
And give it permanent place in the heart.
There is many a sorrow
Would vanish tomorrow,
Were we willing to furnish the wings;
So sadly intrudinE
And quietly brooding,
1t matches out all sorts of horrible things.
How welcome the seeming
OF looks that are beaming,
Whether one is rich or whether one is poor;
Eyes bright AS n berry,
Cheeks red as u cherry,
The groan, the curse and the heartache car
cure.
Resolve to be merry
All worry to ferry
Across the famed waters that bid us forget,
And no longer fearful,
But happy and cheerful,
We feel life has much that is worth living fol
yet.

In place of the ordinary method which
has been pursued in the coloring of leather
namely, first to tan the skins and then
to dye them-a process has been brought
forwyd by German inventor, by which,
it is claimed, both time and labor are
economized--tha is, briefly, instead of
first tanning the skins, as commonly prac-
ticed, this new system consists in placing
them in the color bath, and after remain
ing there some "a hours they are treated
in the ordinary way with alum and salt.
The preference claimed for this plan over
that which is at present in vogue is that it
saves the washing, treating with acid and
the various methods resorted to for restor-
