The Hopeful Maiden.

The Hopeful Maiden.
ny MRS. NJ. A. K1DDER.
The day is dark
A young maid cries,
The sunlight comes not
From the skies:
The emerald field
With snow is clad,
Yet l haye loye,
To make me glad
How joyous were the
Dear ones eyes,
Where love light shone
Without disguised
The fair, sweet face,
With joy so bright.
Indeed, it was
A pleasant sight!
For woman's loye,
So fond and true,
Makes life worth living
Long years through
Zen though the sun
Be hid from sight
To loving hearts
The world seems bright.
The fairest day
Of all the seyen
Is when dear woman
Makes a heaven
On earth below
For some true man,
AS only lovely
Woman can
How happy are
The loving twain,
Who Sea the sunshine
Through the rain,
Singing the songs
OF hope so dear,
Unmindful that
The storm is near.
Sweet love hath
Many cunning ways
Ofailding all our
Fleeting days
If we but let
Hin in whene'er
He begs for shelter
And for cheer.
May this dear maid,
Who told to me
Her tale of loYe
So modestly,
To him she trusts
A helpmate prove,
Aud find in him
True love for loye.

I could get out Of it without the money
on that. check, when I bumped against
man on the street who whipped out a.

before I could apologize. When I
begged his parden, he put up his weap.

It's all right if 70 didn't mean. Meb.

The banker looked tired and had not
word to say as he counted me out
$685. but when we reached the sidewalk
the shooter held out for q handshake
and cheerfully exclaimed:
I thought that bullet hole would
fetch him to time. Ifye want anything
else in this town, ye jest take off yer cap
and pint at it, and the critter who goes
back on ye has to get the drop on me or

YALE'S
HAIR TONIC

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: 1t affords me
great pleasure to call the attention of the pub
lie to my Yalc's Hair Tonic, which is the first
and only remedy known to chemistry which
positively turns gray hair back TO its original
color without dye. | personally indorsc its
action and give the public my solemn guaran-
tee that 1t has been tested in every conceiv-
able way, and has proved itself the only Hair
Specific. 1t stops hair-falling Immediately
and creates luxurious growth. Contains no
Injurious ingredient. 1t is not sticky or greasy;
on the contrary, 1t makes the hair soft, youth
iul, fluffy, keeps 1t in curl and removes dand-
ruff. For gentlemen and ladies with hair
little gray, streaked gray, entirely gray and
with BALD HEADS, it is specially recon-
mended.

Bed Napoleon Died Upon.

A French traveller who has been Wis
iting the island of st. Helena, declares
that the house in which Napoleon died
is in sad state Of dilapidation and neg
lect. Not vestige of furniture remains
within its four walls, the only object
visible being bust of Bonaparte in
the room in which he expired. If the
edifice is devoid of furniture, however.
there are at least ten times as MANY
chairs, wardrobes, washstands, etc., in
other parts of the world, supposed to
have been in it, as would fill a dozen
houses of like proportions. For in
stance, the bed on which NAPOLEON
died is to be found at the Invalides, at
Nine. Tussaud's and at the Grevie
museum. The very same bed is in the
possession of Marquis de Biron, and of
the family Of Marshal Bertrand. Prince
Murat also has it. 1t is needless to
state that all these beds are the real
and only authentic ones on which the
great Corsican breathed his last.
