My life Il like the summer rose
That opens to the morning sky,
But. ere the shades Of evening close.
Is scattered on the ground to die
Yet ON the roses humble bed
The sweetest dews Of night are shed
As II she wept the waste 10 see
But none shall weep tear for ME.
MY life is like the autumn leaf
That trembles In the moons pale ray;
It's hold Ia frail, l,-its date II brief
Restless, and soon 10 pass away
Yet ere thai leaf shall fall and fade
The parent tree shall mourn Its shade,
The winds bewan the leadess tree
But none shall breathe sigh for ms.
Ny life is like the prints which feet
Have left on Tampa's desert strand;
Soon as the rising tide shall beat,
All trace viii vanish from the sand.
Yet. as IL grieving 10 efface
All vestige OF the human race,
On that lone shore loud means the sea-
But none, alas shall mourn for me.

In recent number of the Queen, Mrs.
Lynn Lynton writes, evidently from expe,
rIence, of the dangers of overwork and too
great nerve and mental pressure among
delicate women.
"Only the exceptionally strong" says
Mrs. Lynton," can stand the strain of the
two-fold life of work and society,""
Social life, instead of bringing refresh
ment, brings a redoubling of anxieties and
so much more to think of and so much more
to arrange and manage. There are thou
sand cares that the mother, the hostess and
careful housekeeper cannot share with 9TH
erS.
With more pretentious living, larger fam
lilies, and with every fresh social duty
comes the increase of nervous strain and a
step nearer the breaking-down point. The
great share of this pressure comes upon the
anxious mistress of the household. She be-
comes irritable and hysterical. The most
insignificant little trouble looms large and
weighs heavy-all because she is breaking
down, and the nervous strain is too much
for her. She cannot eat, nor sleep, nor rest,
nor work; her nervous organization has
gone all to pieces. OF the thousands of
such cases that Paine's celery compound
has cured, of the thousands of people in all
classes of society who owe their present
health and strength to this wonderful COM

PALMER'S BIG FIRE

PALMER, Mass, Jan. GA blaze whose
damage amounted to $780, 900 cleared away
the opera house in this town last night
and with it destroyed all the machinery
and stocks IN trade of five of the town.
most prosperous business firms. The fire
caught in the lower story OF the three
story block known as Holden's opera
house, and when discovered at 1890 was
burning the partition between the drug
store of o. P. Allen and the shoe store of
K. j. Henry.
An alarm was rung, but as the block
was one of wood the fire gained great
Roadway before the department arrived.
The efforts of the firemen were directed
to saving the adjoining buildings. They
were aided in their work by the conditions
of very light wind and the fact that the
roofs were protected by a covering of
snow. The Masonic block and the build
ings on the Feeney estate were, however,
in such danger that aid was summoned
from Springfield and Monson.
The opera house proper occupied only
the upper story of the main building, and
its contents, consisting of scenery and fur
nishings, were totally destroyed, entailing
a loss of about 1872 900.

IN CONGRESS.


In DUH
| WASHINGTON. Jan. 25. The house
quickly went into committee of the whole,
with Mr.. Richardson in the chair.
The early part of the day was given to a
consideration of the amendments to the
iron ore schedule, which came over from
Tuesday as unfinished business. The
pending amendments were one proposed
| by Mr.. Oates, proposing duty of 40 cents
ton, and another by Mr.. Taylor, propos-
| ing to substitute for the iron ore schedule
of the Wilson bill the provisions of the
Mckinley law. Both amendments were
defeated, thus leaving iron ore on the free
list.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26-No time was
lost by the Democrats of New York in
inaugurating filibustering proceedings
against the income tax bill yesterday.
Immediately after the reading of
Wednesdays journal, Mr.. Cochran sug-
gested the absence of a quorum, and the
speaker ordered the roll called.
Mr.. Haines was the only one of the New
York Democrats who answered to his
name.
The call showed the presence of POP
mem bers-13 more than a quorum.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The income tax,
with its Accomplishments, was proposed
in the house today as an amendment
to the Wilson bill. 1t is to be debated
and voted upon next week. 1t will be in
corporated with the Wilson bill unless
the Republicans change their minds about
voting for it, which is not likely.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The indications
are that the federal elections bill and the
Hawaiian question will in large meas
ure divide the attention of the senate. If
the tariff bill should pass the house &C.
cording to the program, Thursday, and
be sent Immediately to the senate, nothing
more would be done with it than to refer it
to the finance committee, where it will rest
for at least few weeks, so that there is lit
tie or no prospect of this subject interfering
in any way for the present with the con-
sideration of the bills and resolutions al
ready on the calendar.

bill, and the amendment was read in full.
After the reading Mr.. McMillin addressed

address in criticism thereof, but saying he

WASHINGTON. Jan. 31.-Without vast

the ensuing year Is the Overman Wheel
Company, which now makes public the
fact that VictorS for '94 will be listed at

ly after January l. 1894. The action of
the Chlcopee Falls people will force the
her leaders in the trade to show their

for the ensuing year, as the Overman Wheel
Company has done. This Will be an advan
tage TO everyone connected with the sport.
The uncertainty heretofore existing as to
what prices were to be demanded next year
by the great makers has had particularly
Danetul effect upon trade which is at pres
ent more In need of stimulation than 1t is of
any retarding treatment at the hands of
those who control it. With all the talk re-
gardlng next seasons prices which has gone
ON for the past three months, the buyer has
declined to even consider the purchase of
his next seasons mount until he knew
something definite regarding the price
thereof, while the dealer, himself in the
dark regarding same, has also refused to
lay any plans for he future until he was in
possession of something more substantial
than rumOrs. We believe the Overman
Wheel Company by announcing the price
OF Its VI patterns has conferred distinct
favor upon the whole of cycling from a
standpoint of sport as well as trade. with
Nlctors in the market at SIPS it will be
