FAIRIES KEEP CHRISTMAS.

And laasrd a5out with glance. bright.

And leave ny comrades 900 their bed,
And | Will 20 abroad and -,a
How mortals fare. -, lulI If glee
Al such wild daring, fol IA went
On bold investigation bent
The air was chill; the moon shone bright
A. ever on a summer NIGHT.
The ground Vas covered deep with snow,
And trees stood leafe~s, row on row
The fairy shiyered IN TIM wind
And said, The friends ! left behind
In their deep slulnler happier are
Than l who rashly roam 50 far"
Yet ON she went and sought the town
And In amaze went mp and down
Such lights, such music and good cheer,
As grace no other time Of year,
Such happy faces everywhere,
Such glad release from fret and care,
And homes SO garlandcd with green,
As ne er before the elf had seen!
u thought the world was dull and drear
In winter time, said she "Oh, dearl
wish my comrades only knew
How bright II is how fresh and new,
Is all alive with bounding feet;
How people laugh and sing and play
1t surely is some festal day q"
Through street and house and church and
store
She fitted, wondering more and more
At all size saw and all she heard,
Hoping for some enhghtenng word,
When IN banner carried 10y
She saw these words uplitted high:
Rejoice, earth, be glad and gayl
1t Is the blessed Christmas day
Away she sped DER town and hill
And field and wood and frozen rn
into cavern warm and deep,
And Woke her comrades from their sleep
"Arise!' size cried. "Oh, come away
The world Is keeping Christmas day"
And ever since when birth bells chime
The imll,S clip keep Christmas time

No
Theory Here.

The greatest claims for S.S.S. (Swift's
Specific) are made by those whom it has
cured, and after all the most valuable
reputation is one which is given by those
who speak from experience. We could
publish page of what we claim S.S.S.
will do, but the people prefer to read
of what it has done, and hence we give
the testimony OF reputable, well-knowu
people in different parts of the country,
who gladly tell of how SS.S. has cured
them of blood diseases, after irving
other treatment in vain
No wonder S.S.S. has such staunch
friends. The experience of those who
take it to-day will be the same as of
those who twenty years ago found it the
only cure. Blood diseases are obstinate.
and cannot be cured by one medicine
in dozen which claims to cure them;
SO when S.S.S. is taken with satisfactory
results, after disappointing expert
ence with other remedies, it is not
strange that it has grateful friends by
the score.

Mr.. William Sewers, of Bradford Ohio,
was cured by SIS. ten years ago of a
severe blood poison and writes that to
this day no sign of the dreadful disease
has ever returned. He says:
~ had terrible blood disease which
is considered incurable, and was treated
for long time by the best physicians,
but they did me no good. The disease
seemed to get a firmer hold on me, and
attacked my tongue and throat, which
were soon full of vile ulcers.
81 changed doctors several times, and
afterwards took nearly every blood rem
edy on the market, without the slightest
benefit. After five years of treatment
which did me no good whatever, l was
induced to try SIS. This remedy
proved itself equal to the case, for in
few months l was entirely cured and my
skin was perfectly clear and smooth.
l could hardly believe that the cure was
permanent, but ten years have elapsed
and no sign of the disease has yet ap-
peared."
S SIS. is a sure cure for Cancer, Ca
tarrh, Contagious Blood Poison, Scrof-
ula, Rheumatism, Eczema, and all other
blood diseases, which other remedies
have no effect whatever upon. 1t is

DROVE INTO au1CxsANDs.
The Horses Were Rescued, But the
Wagon Sank Slowly out of sight.

/ Ahe hoFseA were RESCUED, Hut the
Wagon Sank slowly out Of sight.
From the Denver Times.
| team of horses belonging to George
w. Snyder, a contractor, and driven by
". Roach, were caught in the quicksands
of Cherry Creek, beneath the Eleventh
street bridge at 8 o'clock this morning,
and were only rescued after two hours OF
heroic work. The sand wagon which they
were hauling sank almost out Of sight, and
is still in the creek
Roach attempted TO ford the creek 1T a
point where the water had risen and en-
tirely hid the quickstands from view. His
team was recalcitrant. and even after he
himself had discovered his danger failed
20 respond with needful celebrity 10 his
urgings. Accordingly, before the stream
was half forded. the animals were caught
in he treacherous footing and began to
sink. Too late, Roach realized that Il
would be impossible to turn and retrace
his way 20 the bank from which he had
entered. Also he saw that It would be i'm
possible, with any amount OF urging or
effort, to force the brutes through 10 the
further shore. Therefore he had TO adopt
another course.
This course was fraught with imminent
danger TO himself as we'll as 20 the horses.
1t consisted in alighting from his wagon
I'm the midst OF the stream, and in the very
bed OF the quicksand itself. cutting the
tugs from the single-trees and then walk
ing in the water to the shore. where helm
might be obtained. Notwithstanding the
evident peril Of this proceeding Mr.. Roach
adopted IT,
II was necessary for him TO alight in
water uD 70 his midc1e. He chung tightly
10 the wagon while he severed the tugs
but when he struck out for land he soon
realized what his danger really was Al

ging him down, at times, almost 20 his
armpits. IL was oniy by good fortune, and
by the expenditure Of almost superhuman
strength. that he finally set foot on solid
earth and was safe.
But IN the mean time the poor horses
he had been driving were slowly but sure

struggled valianty to FREQ themselves
