"Ginerva," said she, "you must

"Oh, Aunt Matilda" cried the girl,

Mrs. Ubsdell, however, insisted,
81 will go to General Livingston
myself" " said she. "These aristocrats
can't expect to grind every one down
into the earth !"
Poor Ginerva burst into tears, but
Mrs. Ubsdell was implacable.
She scarcely dared look General
Livingston in the face when she met
him in the garden two hours later. His
face wore an amused expression.

has been kind enough to pay me n
visit"
"Please don't think that I had any
thing to do with it," said Ginerva, al
most 1naudibly. 81 am too we'll

General Livingston looked calmly at
her.
"Miss Hail." said he, 81 have been
thinking matters over, and [ have

Ginevra involuntarily clasped her
hands; she grew pale.

Ginevra. Tell me-will you be my
wife instead of the childrens COVER

She stole one timid glance at him.
1t was as if some strong, serene arch
angel had stopped from celestial
cline to ask her to nestle under the
shadow of his cleaning wings.
Did he suspect how long she had
secretly worshiped him? Had he pen
etrated into the mysteries of her
heart?
That glance, however, was 'sufi-
cient answer. He put out his hand
and drew her to his heart.
"My darlingl My darling - was all
that he said.
Ginevra Hall was standing in the
shadow of the tree-ferns in the con-

"Ginevra," said she, "Aunt Matilda

not succeeded in making you discon-

THE MYSTERY OF LOVE.

The million stars that throng the skies
A score of nc ons would make;
Yet now their twinkllngs just suffice
The gloom of night to break.
So friendship may the Offering re

Yet fail to give the ecstasy
That love alone imparts.

go on all over the body. The only way
to get nd of consumption Is to work on
the blood, make it pure, rich and whole
some, build up the wasting tissues, put
the body into condition for fight with
the dread disease. The cure of consump-
ton is fght-a fight between sound
tissues and the encroaching germs of
disease.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
fights on the right side. 1t drives the
germs back, forces them out of the body.
1t will cure 98 per cent. of all cases of con-
sumption if it is taken during the early
stages of the disease. Its first action
is to put the stomach, bowels, liver and
kidneys into good working order. That
makes digestion good and assimilation
quick and thorough. II makes sound
healthy flesh. That is half the battle.

Pa, who died July IS, 1895, aged 2
yrs. 5mo. IL days.
Another happy home is broken,
And the world seems dark and drear
To the lonely wife, whom he has left,
To mourn his absence here.
Her dear husband now has left her,
All this world to fight alone;
But sometime she will Join him,
In our Fathers blessed home.
In the midst of early manhood.
He was called from earth away;
And with Jesus he is singing
Anthems, in that endless day.
God was pleased to call him from US,
To the world where all is love,
But we hope to meet him later,
In that blessed home above.
We will miss him in the choir,
Where his voice will neer be heard,
In the church where he had listened
To the preaching of Gods Word.
His father and his mother
Are sad since he has gone,
For they nevermore shall hear on earth
The voice of their dear son.
His sisters, brothers, friends and all,
Will miss him here below;
But we all will hope to meet him
Beyond this land Of Woe.

A Letter From The West.

Jewell City Kan, July 18th, 1895.
Friend A. c. Achenbach Orange
vile, Pa.
In my letter of May 14th l promis
ed you that would write you soon
again. In the fulhllment of the same,
l will add that we are all as we'll as
] usual with the exception of Boyd, my
Oldest son; he has something like the
ague. The weather is beginning to
get dry.
Sunday morning July 2Ist.
have just come in from a stroll
over the farm. 1 have better pros
poets for a big crop of corn than l
ever had, am counting on 1880
bushels provided everything proves
favorable from this on.
The seed corn you sent me is fine.
l call it the Achenbach corn" a
good portion of it is in silk from one
to sac on stalk.
had 3 acres of Alfalfa north Of
my house. Iplowed what little there
was of it under the 2oth of May and
planted the ground with corn with a
two horse planter. That has made
the largest growth Of any corn l ever
saw for the length of time planted.
All my other corn is planted with a
lister. My Kaffir corn and Sorgum
are fine. Most of the potatoes are
made, the tops are green yet. Have
had plenty to eat since the first Of
June.
moved my oats weeds last week
and stacked them up for hay. They
were almost an entire failure; had 22
acres; l am listing the ground in corn
and with favorable weather will make
some soft corn. During the last week
we have had four rains.
A week ago last night one half in
Thursday night one-half Friday night
one-half last night one-fourth.
Yesterday we turned up dry dirt
with the lister. The ground has not
been thoroughly soaked sirce the
Spring of go. We could use one half
in. of rain every day for the next 80
days to come. Wheat all died out
last winter and spring. l don't know
of but one field that was harvested in
Buffalo Township. The wheat fields
were mostly planted with corn. If
we don't get crop of corn the whole
country will be busted Kansas, and
Nebraska only I mean.
Corn is reported fine all over the
State except a streak from Concordia
east some 50 miles.
My boys, Boyd and Frank went to
Belvlt on the 4th, same as you, Boil
ton and myself did years ago. They
wanted to stay and see the fire works
which they did. They say it com.
menced to rain about s o'clock and
rained until 2 o'clock. The boys say
they never saw it rain so hard. Every
one that was there had to stay all |
night. Those that measured the rain |
fall say it was 6a inches.
At Jewel City the rain fall was one
seven-eighths inches, pretty fair rain
too.
At Concordia it was but one fourth |
inches quite difference in few miles. |
Have had no storms so far this
Summer. There were lots of people |
