A RUINED ALTAR.


Green is the valley and fair the slopes
around it, p
Wide waves of barley shining to the sun:
Softly the stockdoves murmur IN the pine
trees, ... ...u...r
Deep through the hollow the happy wa
ters run.
Roofess and ruinous lies the little home
stead,
All the gray walls Of it crumbling to the
ground;
Only the hearth place, steadfast and I'M
shaken.
Stands, like tomb. mid the lusty leaf
age round.
l'oxglove and hemlock blossom In the
Where the bright ragwort tramples on
the rose;
Zone is the gate, and lost the httle path-
High on the threshold the gaunt nettle
CLOVIS.
Here, long ago, were toll. and thought and
laughter,
Poor schemes for pleasures, piteous plans
for gain.
Love, fear and Strlfe-rOr men were ooAA
Strange human passion, bitter human
pain.
Now the square hearth-place, shroudeo
deep in shadow,
Holds in it's hollow wild things or the
wood;
Here comes the hawk, and here the
vagrant swallow
Nests in the niche where cup and
trencher stood.
Shy furry forms. that hide in brakesAe>d
covert,
Leap on the stone where leapt the yellow
fame:
IN the wide chimney, black with vanished
smoke wrea this,
Chambers the weed that Wreathes the
mantel frame.
But when cometh winter and all the weeds
are withered
In these bare chambers open to the rain,
Then when the wind means in the broken
chimney,
And the hare shivers in the sodden lane,
Then the old hearth nook mourns the folk
that filled it,
Mourns for the cheer Of the red and
golden blaze;
Heaped with the snowdrifts, standing
bleak and lonely,
Dreams of the dead and their long-for-
gotten days.

There is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer to Chamberlain's pain balm.
When it is kept at hand the severe
pain of burn or scald may be
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less tina than when medicine
has to be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before inflammation
sets in, which insures a cure in about
one-third the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive i'm
mediate attention before the parts
become swollen, and when Chamber
lain's pain balm is applied it will heal
them without matter being formed
and without leaving a scar. A sore
throat may be cured in one night. A
piece of flannel dampened with this
liniment and bound on over the seat
of pain, will cure lame back or pain
in the side or chest in twenty-four
hours. It is most valuable, however,
for rheumatism. Persons afflicted
with this disease will be delighted
with the prompt relief from pain
which it affords, and it can be depend
ed upon to work a complete cure.
