Sportively plays upon a white sail
That steadily wings its fair course DER tn

While the bright waters glimmer and fash

Far away DER the the meadow, high mp on

Far away-iar above the bright flashing

Ger the slopes green and sunny, all calm,

The old Shepherd thoughtfully eyes his
full herd
He sees naught of nature; he sees not the

Nor the bright flowing river that quickly
runs by.
He is thinking of how each white fleece
when its sold
Will bring him in nicely a handful of gold

And cnuOts each golden sheaf as they carry

There is one true specific for diseases aris-
ing from deblitated nervous system, and
that is the Paine's celery compound so gen.
orally prescribed by physicians. 1t is prob
ably the most remarkable remedy that the
scientific research of this country has pro-
duced Prof. Edward e. Phelps, MD,
LID, of Dartmouth College, first pre-.
scribed what is now known the world over
as Paine's celery co npound, posi- i've cure
for dyspepsia, bilousness, liver complaint,
neuralgia, rheumstis n, and kidney troubles.
For the latter Paine's celery compound has
succeeded again and again where every
thing else has failed
Washington correspondents have recently
given it great deal of attention since the
most wonderful cure effected in the case of
Commodore Howell.
The medical journ Is of the country have
given more space in the last few years to
the many remarkable cases where the use
OF Paines celery compound has made peo-
pie well than to any other one subject

At the Methodist church there was possibly

An alarm of fire was given about half past
ten last Friday night. AS Melvin Church

SMALLPOX is epidemic in Rio Janero
The death rate has reached 100 day and
the Inhabitants are panic stricken.
FIVE HUNDRED persons were drowned by
the recent storms and floods in Southern
Russia, and the people in the devastated
districts are in great distress. The damage
to property can hardly be estimated.
In addition to the 10000 troops recently
dispatched to Cuba from Spain 10 900 more
will soon go to that island. OF this latter
number 10000 are recruits and the re-
mainder volunteers and returned deserters.
This force is designed to supply gaps caused
by fighting and disease.
THE Northern Pacific liner "Strathnevis"
has gone down with 200 souls on board.
She left Tacoma, Wash, for Yokohama on
October IL, and has not been sighted since.
1t is believed she foundered in the fierce
storm of November 10, She carried 1875
Chinese passengers, and the rest of the 200
were her crew.
DISPATCHES from Seoul, Corea, state that
Tai-Won-Kun has practically given up his
attempt to play the usurper. General Cho,
minister OF war, has been dismissed, and
the status Of the dead queen, who, after her
death, was degraded TO the level of a con-
cubine, has been restored Japan is losing
ground in Corea and Russa's influence is
growing.
ADvIoEs from Constantinople state that
the Yildiz palace is now the center of com.
plicated intrigues which defy description.
Ministers, Office seekers and nondescript
politicians throng the antechamber day
and night. Numbers of high-sounding
orders are constantly sent to the provinces,
but there is little solid result. Public
opinion Is more disturbed than ever.
THE Yachtsmadn, the organ of the Royal
Yacht Squadron, is authority for the state
ment that, although as a matter Of courtesy
to the New York Yacht Club a general
meeting of the squadron will be held to con-

inclination among the members to mix up
the squadron in Lord Dunraven's sayings
and doings If it can possibly be avoided.
IT is reported that compromise has
been reached between the foreign represent
tatives at Constantinople and the sultan
regarding the guard-ship question. The
sultan, it is said, will grant the firmans nee.
