A Prisoners Experience In the Early
DAYS.


Simeon Cobb, having served out his
time as Revolutionary soldier, received
an honorable discharge, and returned
home to Taunton, bringing the "Benning-
ton" gun and powderhorn. But before
the war ended he enlisted again on board
privateer bound to France for war
supplies.
The ship had not sailed half way across
the Atlantic. however, before it fell in
witha British man-of-war, was captured,
taken to the West Indies, sold as a prize,
and all the crew distributed to the various
British vessels happening to be in port at
the time, and needing men.
Mr.. c. was blacksmith by trade, but
was cunning enough to call himself an
"armourer" when the prisoners were
questioned as to their callings. He was
assigned to the frigate's armourer, and
used to remark rather dryly that he "made
good many gun.springs for the British,
but suspected they were all tempered so
hard that they did not last long"
He spoke of the fare of the prisoners on
board very much as some of our veterans
do of the fare at Andersonville. The ship
was very short of provisions, especially
of water. before they arrivedinport. The
only provision of which they could have
all they desired was called "burgoo."
This was wormy oatmeal, made into a
porridge in cauldron as often as was
necessary.
After a long servitude, ship was seen
approaching one day, was hailed las soon
as it was possible to be heard through
the trumpet) for "the news" and back
came the most welcome cry of peace"
Great demonstrations followed, but no
release of prisoners. Every effort was
used to make them enlist in the navy.
At length a Portuguese sailor, who had
become good friend of Mr.. Cobb, but
who could not write, asked him to write
a letter for him to the admiral, whose
headquarters were on land. In that
letter he took pains to make his own con-
dition known. Theletter was committed
to Mother Mary" washerwoman,
who promised to see it safe in the adj
miral's box at the post Office.
After some time, the captain of the
frigate was called on shore by the ad.
miral, and, on his return to his command,
Mr.. c. was called to the captains office,
where further inducements were offered
him to enlist. But on his firm refusal he
was allowed to go. The friend from
Portugal seemed to get no benefit of his
appeal to the admiral, and was so affected
that he would not bid Mr.. c. goodbye
But when he came to examine his bag, he
found in it a generous gold piece, which
he always credited to his swarthy friend
and which proved great boon to him.
"Mother Mary" sheltered him that first
hot night, and in the early morning h'
fell in with skipper who was just going
to Charleston, S. c., with cargo of salt
from Turks Island, and who took pity
on him.
Arrived at Charleston, he succeeded in
begging or working his passage on an
other craft to Newburyport, Mass, and
from there walked all the way to Taun

Spring Song.

The boughs arc heavy with blossoms,
The grass grows deep on the lawn
Sweeter and ever sweeter
The blackbird pipes to the dawn
The paths lie pale in the twilight,
As pale as a ring-doves breast;
The brentwood is blue and silver
faint rose fades in the west.

Healthy, happy babies are generally
the offspring of healthy, happy mothers.
It would hardly be natural if it were
otherwise. The baby's health and hap
piness depend on the mothers. The
mothers condition during CESSATION par
ticularlv exerts an influence on the
whole life of the child.
Impure blood, weakness and nervous
ness in the mother are pretty sure to
repeat themselves i'll the child.
If woman is not careful at any other
time, she certainly should be during the
period preliminary to parturition. It is
time when greatest care is necessary,
and Nature will be the better for little
help. Even strong, well women will
find themselves feeling better, their time
Of labor shortened and their pains less
ened if they will take DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription To those whom
troubles peculiarly feminine have rend-
cred in any degree weak, it will prove a
veritable blessing. 1t is good general
tonic for the whole systerl, and at any
time will promote the proper and regular
action of all the organs. 1t is a medicine
for women only and for all complaints
confined to their sex is of inestimablc
value.

Plies Medical Adviser" which will be

Since 1873 there have been nine cpl
denies OF disentery in different parts of
the country in which Chamberlain's Colo,
Cholera and Diarrhma Remedy was used
with perfect SUCCESS. Dysentery, when
epidemic, is almost as severe and danger
GUS as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the
best efforts of the most skilled physicians
have failed to check its ravages; this
remedy, however, has cured the most
malignant cases, both OF children and
adults. and under the most trying condi-
tions, which proves it to be the best
medicine in the world for bowel COM

How the English Hunt Foxes.

A sportsmanlike story Of q fox hunt
comes from Sittin rbourne, in England.
The fox led tho hounds chase Of over an
hour, throwing them of the scent at last by
taking refuge on top of a garden wall. He
was driven off by laborer, dashed into a
cottage through the window and hid In
tho fireplace of the back room. When the
hounds followed, he worked his way up
the chimney to the roof. He was fright
ened back by shouts and tho barking Of
dogs, but, finding the hounds at the bot
tom Of the chimney, made his way back
70 the roof, from which he was pushed off
among tho hounds waiting for him. Tho
shooting of foxes is tabooed In England.

I want little casket,
With hasp and lock and key,
To hide a little treasure
That's very dear to me.
My sweetest sins the idol
I seek to put away,
But | will not resign it
Forever and for aye.
I want it kept securely
I'm quasi penitent,
And I'll be very likely
To claim it-after Lent,
