1t Made Him Talk.

A capital story is told of the way in
which a New England Senator was once
aroused to make a stirring speech. At the
outset of his political career he had been
known as remarkably clever orator OF
the stump, and later on i'll the lower
House of the Legislature he made bril-
liant name for himself But when he be-
came Senator he ceased talking, much to
the regret of his friends and admirers.
Finally the liquor law came up for discus
sion, and the wife of the friend of the SEN
ator, who was much interested in its pas
sage, was disappointed to see that the
brilliant man had no apparent intention
of joining in the discussion. She sat down
and wrote a few words on a sheet OF paper
which she inclosed IN an envelope and
sent by messenger to the Senator: DO
speak! Even Balaam's ass spoke once p
This brought the Senator to his feet and
elected one of the best speeches he ever
made.-Youth's Companion.

sity of the Mohammedan faith. 1t was

ECHO IN The GARDEN.

But, Echo, Echo, there was no mistake.
We heard you-didn't WEI Both of us heard
We were not dreaming. We were wide awake
You kissed somebody; yes, upon my world
But the old Irish gardener heard you too
And "Sure, he said, "it's after getting late
And Pm not wanted here" you know it's
true.)
You heard him laughing as he shut the gate.
You know the slight sound woke the lonesome
thrush,
Singing herself to sleep in dusk and dew.
She held her song to listen. (Echo hushI
Perhaps she only wished that she were you
But the sea heard you, too, AMI blushed fire
red
In the low sun, and from the wall withdrew
Murmuring confusedly. But, what he said
Echo, / wouldn't tell you If knew.
And the moon heard you, that long clustered
nun
OF heaven, and thereat, in her sacred veil,
Hid her still face and backward thought Of
one
Whose name don't mention tive know the
tale.
Now, Echo, say, VINO was the lovely YOUTH
Well, then, mean the fellow that you kissed
(Oh, Echo Echo can't you tell the TRUTH
There in the garden, in the bloom and mist
So then SO A wind from some dead world
With singing, shadowy lips that late have
pressed
The white Narcissus Dream and legend lie
Cold in th1 corpse flowers desolate young
breast.

1t is an uncommon thing TO learn OF
persons reaching the age of Mrs. Emyle
Hyde Grinnell, and years of good health
such as hers come only to those who
make use of the very best means of keep.
ing well.
No one will wonder that the bright
eyed old lady, whose mind to-day is as
alert and clear as ever, should be anxious
for others to try Paine's celery COM
POund.
Mrs Emyle Hyde Grinnell was born in
Bennington, Vt, July 9th, 1876, and is
TO day living with her grand daughter,
the wife of Martin Fowler of Colchester,
VT, beautiful town near Fort Ethan
Allen. Her father was farmer and no,
tel keeper, and she lived upon the farm
antil her marriage. Mrs Grinnell has
none of the infrmlties of old age. She
rises at daylight, works about the house
and when the weather will permit walks
outdoors. Her eyesight is so good that
she threads a needle and spends many
hours orOchetiDg and doing fancy work
She keeps abreast of the times, and is
remarkably well informed upon manv
subjects. She declares that, she does
not feel any older than she has for years
and if people half her age enjoyed such
good health as she, they would consider
themselves fortunate. She has seven
children, four boys and three girls, two
of whom are living to-day.
Mrs. Grinnell writes:
Colchester, vt, Oct. 18th, 1895.
''Paine's celery compound has been
my health preserver during the last few
years. Whenever have an ache or a
pain few doses of this medicine gives
me relief and strength. Few women,

/ joy as good health. for my appetite is
natural, my sleep refreshing, and can
walk quite a distance without feeling
tired. People are surprised at my vigor
GUS appearance and activity which be
lieve, is the result of my using Paine's
celery compound. 1t has cured me of
constipation, and is of great help to me
when O. er-t tired.
Gratefully yours.
MRS EMYLE HYDE GRINNELL."
Paine's celery compound is especially
valuable for recruiting the strength and
spent energies of men and women ad
vanced in years. 1t is the preparation
considered worthy the name of true
nerve food and blood remedy by physi
clans throughout the country. 1t is pre-
scribed by them in every state in the
Union to tone up the system, regulate
the nerves and restore the health and
strength.
Nothing in the past has ever ap-
preached it in power of building up
weakened nerve tissues and giving
strength to the tired body. In severe
cases of persistent headaches, dyspepsia,
neuralgia and sleeplessness, due to nerv.
Gus feebleness, Paine's celery compound
has record of rapid and lasting cures
that embraces everv city and town in the
wide sweep of the United States.
It's remarkable power over diseases
lies in its active replacing of worn ont
parts by new, healthy ones, and in its
healing and purifying action among the
/ most minute TISSUES of the body. 1t
