To Neal Dow, March 20. 1891.

BY MRS. ESTHER T. HOUsH.
O hero Of the Pine-tree state!
Nermonters send thee greeting.
our mountains green in silence wait
The sunrise old Katahdin's meeting.
That halls thy birthmorns glad fruition
To send thee cheers for ninety years
Well spent for Prohibition.
Two thousand nested homes in valleys fair.
This day do reverently call thy name;
The ribbon white does Irvine the pine branch
there
Dear honored bearer Of the Maine law fame!
We've bravely stood by shot and shell
To keep our law we love so well:
We joy in this, our glad fruition,
Our rallying cheers for 20 years
Vermont and Prohibition,
Our hopes are one. o honored friend,
Our hopes for all the nation.
From sunrise heights till shores do end,
From ocean unto ocean,
That every state with rousing shout
Shall rise in grand endeavor,
And rule the liquor power out,
Forever and forever
All hail to this, truths glad fruition
Well give thee cheers: for forty wears
Maine led in Prohibition.

A new DISEASE.
People who are wearing away
because they cannot digest their
food.


They eat heartily but their food does
them no good.
If you speak TO your acquaintance you will too
often find someone who says to you: my food
does me no good. l have good, even a voracious
appetite, eat plenty and enjoy what l eat but l
am as thin as a rail. MY stomach pains me
after meals l get no flesh or strength from
what l eat"
This is not exactly new disease. 1t is new
because doctors are beginning to.gye it attention
They are recognizing that at the door of this
disease may be laid the blame for most of the
dangerous sicknesses which decimate the human
race.
Consumption, Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Dia-
betes, Scrofula; all these, and many other dis
eases, could be prevented or cured if food
could be found that would do good"
Doctors have recognized that in Paskola they
have found such food. Made according to
scientific principles, of the purest starch foods
(the strengthening fattening foods pre-digested
it is perhaps the only food that will do good" to
the most delicate stomach and TO the sckest dys-
peptic
Paskola is not a medicine, It is an aid to med
icine, 1t often does away with the need for med
icine.

Kisses Changed to Cheers.

One Of the most popular men who has
ever taught in Edinburgh University is
John Stuart Blackie, whose nobility Of
character is well oxemplided in this M
ecdote told in the A,y0nant
Professor Blackie was lecturing 10 a
new class with whose personnel he was
imperfectly acquainted. A student rose
to read a paragraph. his book in his left
hand.
"Sir !" Numbered Blackic, .shoId your
book iu your right" And. as the stu
dent would have spoken "No words.
sir Your right hand, l say!"
The student held up his right arm,
ending pitcously at tho wrist
"Sir, | hac nae right haud," he said
Before Backie could open his lips,
there arose storm of biasos, and by it
his voice was overborne. Then the pro-
fcssor left his place and went down to
the student he had unwittingly hurt. aud
put his arms around tho lads shoulder
and drew him close, and tho lad leaned
against his breast.
"My boy" said Blackie-he spoke
very softly, yet not so softly but that
every word was audible ia the hush that
had fallen on the olass-room-''my boy,
you'll forgive me that | was over rough ?
I did not know did not know r.
He turned to the students and, with
q look and tone that came straight from
his hoart, he said "And lot mo say to

MY NEIGHBOR's BABY.

| Across in my neighbours window ...
| With Its drapiugs of satin and lace
l see, meath its flowing rnglets,
A baby's innocent face
His feet, in crimson slippers,
Are tapping the POLISHED glass;
And the crowd in the street look upward,
And nod and smile as they pass
just here In my cottage window,
Catching flies in the sun,
With a patched and faded apron.
Stands my own little one.
His face is as pure and handsome
AS the baby's over the way,
And he keeps my heart from breaking
AT my toling every day
Sometimes when the day is ended,
And sit in the dusk to rest,
With the face OF my sleeping darling
Rugged close to my lonely breast,
l pray that my nelghbor's baby
May not catch heavens roses all,
But that some may crown the forehead
OF my loved one rs they fall.
Aud when draw the stockings,
From his little weary feet,
And kiss the rosy dimples
In his limbs so round and sweet,
think of the dainty garments
Some little children wear
And that my God withholds them
From mine 80 pure and fair.
May God forgive my envy
know not what said;
My heart is crushed aud troubled
My neighbor's boy is dead
saw the little coffin
AS they carried it out Today
A mothers heart is breaking
In the mansion over the way.
The light is fair in my window,
The flowers bloom 1T my door;
My boy is chasing the sunbeams
That dance on the cottage floor;
Tho roses of health are blooming
On my darling's cheek to-day,
But the baby is gone from the window
OF the mansion over the way. p.
