SELECTED POETRY.
Songs Unsung.

Sweet the song Of the thrush at dawninR,
When the grass lies wet with spangled dew;
Sweet the sound Of the brooks low whisper
Mid reeds and rushes wandering through
Clear and pure is the west winds murmur
That croons In the branches ! day long;
But the songs unsung are the sweetest music
And the dreams that die are the soul Of song
The fairest hope is the one which faded,
The brightest leaf is the leaf that fell;
The song that leaped from the lips of siren
Dies away in an old seashell.
Far is to the heights OF vlewless fancy
The souls swift flight like a swallow goes,
For the note unheard is the birds best carol
And the bud midtown is the reddest rose.
Deepest thoughts are the ones unspoken,
That only the heart sense, listening, hears;
Most great joys bring touch of silence,
Greatest grief is in unshed tears.
What we hear is the feetng echo.
song dies out, but dream lives on;
The red rose tlnts Of the rarest morning
Are lingering yet In a distant dawn.
Somewhere. dim in the days to follow
And far away in the life TO be,
Passing sweet, Is a song of gladness-
The spirit-chant of the soul set free.
Chords untouched are the ones we wait for
That never rise from the harp unstrung,
We turn our steps TO the years beyond US,
Aud listen still for the songs unsung.

FILTERED BLOOD.
MOrrOw's Method Of Curing Diseases
Accusing the Interest OF
Scientists,

Physicians Of all schools are beginning to
realize that the primary cause of nearly every
disease that attacks the human system is the
nature assigned them.
The blood is constantly absorbing from the
different articles of food taken into the stom-
ach, various impurities, which, if permitted to
course through the system, quickly render the
blood unfit to carry on the process of healthy
nutrition and ultimately result in the develop
ment of disease.
1t is the duty of the kidneys to filter the
blood; the slightest irregularity in the per-
Torrance of this function is Immediately mani
tested in general weakness of the body; a
tendency to give out with little exertion. This
symptom is closely followed by others of much
more distressing nature which it is often GUS
tomary to attribute to other causes.
John Morrow, an eminent chemist of Spring
field, Ohio, using as a basis for his work the
theory that the kidneys are responsible for the
CONDITION of our health, has produced new
remedy which he has named Morrow's Kidne-
oids, the purpose of which is to act directly on
the kidneys eliminating all unnatural deposits
and rectifying the damage caused by their ex-
istence
The remarkable results obtained by this
medicine have attracted wide attention and
established a new method of treating disease,
the efficacy of which cannot be disputed.
Morrow's Kidneoids are prepared in yellow
tablets so small as to almost rob them of their
virtue in the eyes of those not versed in medi
cine, but so potent is their influence that their
effects are noticed almost Immediately.
They are now on sale generally If not to
be had of your dealer, they will be sent post
paid on receipt of 80 cents per box, boxes for
$3.50, by the Herb Medicine Co, Springfield,
Ohio.

Never Too Late.

There is good and bad in the wayside inns
On the highways of our lives,
And the man never can be free from sins
No matter how hard he strives;
Yet even when down distinctions grade
Our thorny pathways trend
In spite of a thousand errors made
at is never too late to mend"
There are crosses heavy for men to bear,
And passions to conquer, too;
There are Joys and woes that each must share
Before the journey is through.
But men may be poor for honor's sake,
And truth and right defend,
And hope will never this promise break;
at is never too late to mend"
IT'S never too late for noble deed
For blessed by the angels tears,
1t plants in the breast of man seed
That will grow in after years;
A word of kindness, of hope and cheer
viii always comfort Lend
We must live for love and Danish fear
ut lie never too late to mend"
1t 10 never too late to mend, my lad,
No matter what people say,
And no mans nature is wholly bad,
Even If old and gray;
There's always chance this side the grave.
Until we reach the end,
There is time TO change and time to save
"Itis never too late to mend"

She sits beside the window wide,
In wooden rocking chair,
Through cap of lace well can trace
The snowy waves of hair.
So white 1t shows, so warm 1t CLOVIS,
AS sunbeams softly pour
Through the window pane and try in vain
To make 1t gold once more.
love her eyes-dim. yet so wise;
And, ah, so quick TO see
The pitfalls deep, the snares that creep,
The trials that threaten me!
love her cheek. the lines that speak
OF lifes long toilsome day,
The tender touch that tells so much
OF patient love Away.
So old and bent, so weak and spent,
Yet keeping youth enough
To help and cheer when skies are drear
And ways are steep and rough.
l love to sit where shadows fit.
My head upon her knee,
And feel her arm. so soft and warm,
Close gently over me.
/ love to hear upon my ear
The broken voice, so mild,
" The long, full day Of work aud play
" Has wearied you, my child"
A tender prayer is in the air,
Oh, sweet the hour and mood
And sweet the tone. My little one,
trust you have been good"

the lips of the welded couple to whose
home there never comes the patter of
childish feet.
One cause, more than any other con-
tributes to making the tens of thousands
of childless and consequently unhappy
homes all over this country The cause is
often the unconscious fault of the wife. A
woman who suffers from weakness and dis
ease of the distinctly feminine organism is
unified for motherhood, and if she has
children it will probably be at the sacrifice
of her own life. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription is a wonderful medicine for wom-
Ell who suffer in this way 1t acts directly
on the delicate and important organs con-
cerned in wifehood and motherhood. It
makes them strong, healthy, vigorous, vi
rifle and elastic. 1t banishes the squeam-
ishness of the expectant period and makes
baby's advent easy and almost painless. 1t
insures the little newcomers health and
a bountiful supply of nourshment. Thou
sands of homes that were childless and
unhappy now echo with the prattle of
healthy babyhood, as the result of the use
of this marvellous medicine

nant about two months.) 1 began taking the
medicines, and in less than a week I could eat
anything. The Favorite Prescription is the
best medicine in the world for prospective moth
ers, My health is better now than it has been
for twelve years. My little girl is now six
months old and Is well and healthy l do not

MARRIED. A NEoREss IN
PUBLIC.
Intense Excitement Folloscs, sad the
Bridegroom 10 Scared.

In the university town of Athens,
Tenn. Perry Wiggley was married
one day last week to Gid Helms, q
negress of low repute. The cere-
mony took place in the street, and
the knot was tied by q Justice of
the Peace while the pair stood
mounted on q dry goods box.
Wiggley is the son of ID. N.
Wiggley, commander of Post No.
%. G. A. R., who is highly re-
spected in the community. Gid
Helms has figured conspicuously In
number of police court episodes.
She was a widow of but a few
weeks, having Just buried her first
husband. Her first husband was
also a white man of excellent family.
Wiggley's father is indignant and
has disowned his son, who has made
himself a criminal, miscegenation
being q felony in all the Southern
states.
A large crowd had gathered in
Athens from the country to see a
travelling circus. The excitement
became intense as the story of the
marriage spread, and threats of
violence were heard on every side.
A disorganized mob proceeded to
Wiggley's home, but failed to find
him.
The woman is light mulatto of
depraved habits, but far above her
own people in the average of intel
hgence and attractiveness. The
couple cannot live together in
Tennessee, and doubtless have taken
refuge in the mountains.

THE SECRETS OF A TRUE
WIFE.

II i said that the wifes secret is
the opinion she has of her husband.
IF her opinion is not favorable il
certainly ought to be her secret.
So long as she Is not called upon to
utter 1t IN self-defense. Even
though the wife learns when it is
too late that the man she has prom
ised to love, honor and obey, and
IN whom abe could see no imperfec-
tons during their courtship, but
now that he is her husband, when
he should do all in his power to
make her happy, he becomes surly,
cross and cruel without any appar-
emit cause, the young wife's heart
ID filed with anguish when she re-
alises that her idol was nothing
more than clay.
But she dare not tell the world
her domestic sorrows. She feels
that to use the intimacy of q rela-
ton 90 sacred Is that of marriage,
merely to discover weaknesses and
betray them to others, can never be
the province of noble nature.
However impossible the contract
to love, honor and obey may be,
the alternative need not be to hate,
dishonor and destroy.
The true woman Will try to hide
her gnefs from the world and heal
her sorroWs, for durable are the
hearts of the noble; and the griefs
of an unhappy marriage need not
vent itself in the disgrace of a
hideous quarrel or pittiless perse-
cution.
Whatever wrong one has suffered,
Let the dead love and hope at least
have Q Christian burial, rather than
be cast out on the highway for the
dogs of gossip to mutilate.

THE HAMILTON CASE.

TIE Coroner's inquest held on
the body of John II. Hamilton
disclosed the fact that crime had
been committed, and that there was
reason to believe that Mrs. Lou
Hamilton, the wife of the deceased,
had something to do with its com
mission.
Mrs. Hamilton was therefore
held to await a preliminary hearing
before q committing magistrate.
Judge Morris Sommer was the
acting CoroLer, and in that capacity
had listened to all the evidence,
some of which was hear say, and
the defense therefore thought that
he could not sit as committing
magistrate at the preliminary hear
ing and discard from his mind the
testimony given at the inquest.
The defense accordingly moved
for q change of venue, and Judge
Sommer with q fine sense of feeling
and recognizing the gravity of the
ofense, and believing that all rights,
whether real or doubtful, should be
resolved in favor of the defendant,
Mrs. Hamilton, he cheerfully al
lowed the motion and the case vas
sent to d. H. Wenger, the City
Justice.
The preliminary hearing was be-
gun last Monday at 10 a. m, and
for two days the witnesses for the
prosecution detailed to the court a
state of facts which, if unexplained,
point to Mrs. Hamilton as the
slayer of her husband.
According to the testimony Mr..
and Mrs. Hamilton lived very hap
ply together until her alleged in
fidelity poisoned their marital life.
Judge Wenger after hearing the
testimOny-the defense waving
putting In any evidence-bound
Mn. Hamilton, without bail, to
await the action of the District
Court.
As to what viii be Mrs. Hamil-
toms defense no one except her at
torneys can tell
