So close thou to the 5orderland,
Thy soul hath caught the sweet
Perfume of sprng-tide blooms; a band
OF angels stay their feet
Across thy hallowed lifes thres hold,
And from their love-lit eyes
Flash unto thee whose years are old,

So close thou to the borderland,
Thine ear hath caught the song
OF higher worlds, and with command
OF melody, the throng
OF wondrous tones thou's st deftly blent
In kindly word and deed
Till heaven seems, thro thee. but lent
To mitigate earths need.
So close thou to the borderland,

Form Worship.

There was a saint-so runs a legend old
a holy man of Cod who day by day,
1ciled for the flock within his little fold,
And led his people in the narrow way.
Although they did not fully understand
His words of wisdom and his fervent prayers,
They loved and revereEced him throughout the
land
And sought his counsel when weighed down
with cares
1t came to pass that one night as he dreamed
He saw glorious vision in the skies
Three bars of sunlight round about him beamed.
And written them, just before his eyes,
were all the truths of God, so long concealed
From human beings-truths for which his soul
tor years mad yearned in vain were now revealed.
he read, and waking wrote them on a SCROLL
Next night message came: 20 saint prepare
To teach the world the truths which thou hast
read
Three days he spent in fasting and in prayer;
Then calling all his people to him said:
Brethren L go away, but leave with you
The precious truths of God revealed to me
And written this parchment-read it through;
Live by it, brethren, 1T will make you free"
For many years this saint. this holy man
Joulneyed and taught rested day nor night
And thousands who had been beneath the ban
OF ignorance and doubt, received the light.
AT last, with faltering step and palsied hand
Which told OF earthly labors nearly done,
He turned his face again toward tn land
Where all his deeds of mercy Ware begun.
1t came to pass that he neared the place
He saw the people PROSTATE in the dust
Before an altar Joy ilumed his face
He said: My people worship God the Just"
He nearer drew. Upon the altar lay
The roll of parchment still securely sealed.
His flock had worshiped it from day to day.
But searched it not for truths to him revealed.

Free Cure For Men.
A MICHIGAN MAN OFFERS TO
SEND HIS DISCOVERY FREE.

Claims to be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.
There Is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free
but sometimes n man so overt1Ows with
generosity that he cannot rest until his
discovery is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
he has discovered. 1t is upon this princi-
pie that a resident of Kalamazoo, Mich,
desires to send free to mankind a pre-
scription which will cure them of any
form of nervous debility; relieves them of
all the doubt and uncertainty which such
men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. AS
it costs nothing to try the experiment 1t
would seem that any man, suffering with
the nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize what
might be the final result, ought to be
deeply interested in a remedy which will
restore them to health, strength and
vigor, without which they continue to
live an existence of untold misery. As
the remedy in question was the result OF
many years research as to what cOmbi-
nation would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need,
it would seem that all men suffering with
any form of nervous weakness ought to
write for such remedy at once. A re-
quest to II. G. Odds, Box 1922, Kala-
mazoo, Michigan, stating that you are
not sending for the prescription out of
idle curiosity, but that you wish to make
use of the medicine by giving it trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came
from.
The prescription is sent free, and al
though some may wonder how Mr.. Odds
can afford to give away his discovery,
there is no doubt about the offer being
genuine. Cut this out and send to Mr..
Olds that he may know how you came to
write him.

STATEMENT BY MIR. McAL1STER.

He Takes Exception at Alleged Charges
of the Southeastern Trafhce Ass0cla-
ton.
To the Editor: During the last thirty
DAYS. various complaints have come to
tbe Southern Stock Mutual Insurance
Companv of charges made by agents of
the Southeastern Tariff Association that
the policy holders of the above named
company are liable to assessment. 1t
will be patent to any one who Will take
the pains to review the evidence, that
the charge is utterly false and based
upon so fiimsy foundation as to fur
nish no excuse to those who have helped
to circulate the SANDER. The truth Of
the case would have been plain and
to any one who wanted to
know it.
1t has Just been brought to our atten-
ton that the charge is based upon a
South Carolina Supreme court decision
which was published in your columns
July 10th, 1897. This decision, as it
appeared in your paper and in the form
of a special circular. has been distributed
to the agents of the SoutI eastern Tariff
Association throughout the State, and
has been used by many of them as II
weapon against the Southern Stock-Mu-
tual Insurance Company.
A glance at he decision referred to will
convince any one that it has not the
most remote application to the Southern
Stock-Mutual. The decision passes upon
the liability of pOlicy-hOlderS of the
Farmers Mutual Insurance Company
and no other, and is based upon sec
ton of the act of Incorporation: THAT
every member of said corporation shall
be, and is hereby, bound to pay his, her
or their portion of all losses and expenses
accruing to said corporation" The COM
pany whose policy was in litigation had
no other way of raising money except
by assessment upon its members. This
was essentially its plan provided for in
the charter and in the contract of in
surance.
1t will be seen how unjustly this de-
cision has been used to the prejudice of
the Southern Stock Mutual, when it is
considered that our contract of insur
ance is the standard policy, the same
as that issued by all the stock compan
les; that notice is given in bold letters on
the policy that the policy-holders are
non-assessab bic: that the pOlicy-hOlders
of the Southern StockMutual are speci-
fically exempt by LEGISLATIVE EN-
in its charter from all La
bility to assessment; and that this as
sessment feature is as utterly foreign
to the plan of the Stock-Mutual as it is
essentially a part of the plan of the
named in the South Carolina
decision. Some of the best lawyers of
the State have passed upon this matter,
and it is a question about which there
is no uncertainty whatever.
This is a fair specimen of the kind of
we have met with con-
tinually at the hands of certain COM
petitors, and we would prefer to ignore
it as we have done on previous occa-
sions; but there are several thousand
property holders in North Carolina who
are directly interested in the profits of
the Southern Stock-Mutual Insurance
Company and we are unwilling that
baseless SANDER should rob us of their
support and good will.
Yours very truly,
A. w. M'ALISTER.

WARNING TO PUBLIC.


Secretary Bliss Takes Cognizance of Ru II
to KiondYke Gold Fields.
Washington, Aug 11.-Secretary OF
Agriculture Bliss sends out the following
warning to persons who contemplate
going to the Yukon gold fields:
TO Whom it May Concern:
In view of the information received at
this department that 5000 persons, with
1000 tons of baggage and freight are now
waiting at the entrance to White Pass,
In Alaska, for an opportunity to cross
the mountains to the Yukon river, and
that many more are preparing to join
them, 1 deem it proper to call the at
tention of all who are contemplating
making the trip to the exposure, priva-
ton, suffering and danger incident there
to at this advanced period of the season,
even if they should succeed in crossing
the mountains. To reach Dawson City
over the pass, 700 miles of difficult naviga-
ton on the Yukon river, without ade-
quate means of transportation, will still
be before them, and it is doubtful if the
Journey can be completed before the river
it closed by ice.
I am moved to draw public notice to
these conditions by the gravity of the
possible consequences to people detained
in the mountainous wilderness during
five or six months of an Arctic winter.
where no relief can reach them. however
great the need. c. N. Bliss.
