THE DAYS OF OLD.


let's go back, O brother mine,
To the precious ways of the days goHe by
Back to the CLEAN of the glad sunshine
When we were children, you and l.
We are growing old, but long 20 much
For the grasp Of II mothers hands to hold
Me away from sin and its suiing touch
As they used TO do in the days Of old
I'm tired Of dogma OF church and state;
Let's trail with our feet the dust Of the Ian,
As we wander down TO the pasture gate
And bring the COWS for mother again
And see once more the wood lark dip
From stake to stake Of the ridered fenoe
And feel the old time fellowship
We felt in our boyhood innocence
Let's climb TO the rnfters overhead
And build a swing on the old barn floor,
Let's "hide and seek in the wagon shed
And be "knee high" again once more
Let's part the weeds where the truant hen
Has stolen her nest then stoop and fold
The sheltering weeds DER the nest again
As we used TO do In the days Of old.
Oh, the endless joys Of the days Of old,
With the path that led to the fruited trees,
Whore the dandeliOns their coins Of gold
Had scattered to bribe the bumblebcesl
Down in the grass was the crickets chirr
And overhead was the dragon fly,
And roundabout US everywhere
Was the dreamy CLEAN of the days gone by.
And, oh, the years and tears since then,
The miles and smiles that have lured us on,
The graves we have passed and the moment,
when
The cradle and coffin seemed almost onel
So let's go back, o brother mine,
Forgetting tonight our greed Of gold,
And talk awhile Of the glad sunshine
That gilded the ways of the days Of oldi

Years ago q little periodical was pub
lished in England entitled Captain Rock
In London; or, the Chieftains Weekly
Gazette" Naturally it was full of Irish
ideas, and SO not entirely agreeable to the
existing government
One morning, while 1t was in full swing,
two gcntlomen met accidentally in Lon
dOn's Green park. One of them was the
editor of the seditious paper and the other
an Englishman who seemed to be greatly
interested in public affairs. They drifted
into talk on Ireland, and at its conclusion
the stranger presented his gold snuffbox
TO tho editor.
h Take this, my friend, said he, "as a
little memorial of the most useful and in
structive conversation have ever had on
Irish affairs. You will not value it the
less when tell you am the prince re.
gent.
"Will your royal highness," said the
lrishman, "permit me in tendering my
grateful thanks to name myself, for fear
your royal highness has heard of me be-
FORE"
by all means" said tho prince, good
deal amused at the assurance of the in
trepid Irishman. "Tell mo who you are. "
May 1t please your royal highness,
am Captain Rock"
And In those days the captains name
was equivalent to that of a dynamiter.
Needless to say that the new acquaint'
ances parted with no talk of future
meeting.

EASTER SEASON IN RUSSIA.
The Most venerated and Gay Of the Yesr
ly Festivals.

ly fesbiNhis'
Easter In Russia is tho most venerated
and also the most gay Of the yearly festi
walls, says Prince Kropotkin In Tho At
lantic. The last week of the great Lent,
the Passion week, was kept In Moscow In
my childhood with an extreme solemnity.
1t was time of general mourning, and
crowds of people went to the churches to
listen to the impressive reading of those
passages of the gospels which relate to the
sufferings of the Christ. Not only were
meat eggs and butter not eaten, but even
fish was refused, some of the most rigor-
Gus taking no food at oil on Good Friday.
The more striking was the contrast when
Easter came.
Every one went to church on Saturday
to attend the night service, which began
In a mournful way Then all of sudden
at midnight the resurrection news was an
nounced. All churches were suddenly H.
Illuminated, and gay peals of the bells re-
sounded from the hundreds Of churches.
General rejoicing began All kissed each
other thrice on the checks, repeating tile
resurrection words, and the churches now
flooded with light, shone with the gay
toilets of the ladies The poorest woman
of the people had O new dress. II she had
only one new dress year, she would pre-
pare IL for that night.
The holy week was at the same time
and is still tho signal for a real debauch
In eating Special Easter cream cheeseS
(paskha) and Easter bread (koolioh) are
prepared, and every one, no matter how
poor he or she may be, must have, be II
only small paskha and u small koolich,
with at least one egg painted In red, to be
consecrated in the church and to be used
afterward to break the Lent With most
old Russians eating began at night, after q
short Easter mass, Immediately after the
consecrated food had been brought from
church, but in the houses of the nobility
the ceremony was postponed till Sunday
morning, when q table was covered with
all sorts of viands, cheeses and pastry, and
all the servants came to exchange with
their matters three kisses and a red paint
ed egg. For the whole Of the Easter week
table spread with Easter food stood IL
the great hall, and every visitor was in
| vited to partake of some.

travelling through Asia Minor came across
an encampment Of Turcomans. The men
were absent watching over their hooks
and only the women, large boned and

astonishment when they saw that she, in

Dyspepsia Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an Indianapolis
Gentleman.

Gentleman,
No trouble is more common or more mis-
understood than nervous dyspepsia. People
having it think that their nerves are to blame,
are surprised that they are not cured by nerve
medicines and spring remedies; the real seat
of mischief is lost sight Of; the stomach is the
origin to be looked after.
Nervous dyspeptcs often do not have any
pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any of the usual symptoms of stomach weak
ness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in
the stomach so much as in nearly every other
organ III some cases the heart palpitates r-
regular in Others, the kidneys are affected /;
in others the bowels are constipated, with head
aches still others are troubled with loss of
flesh and appetite, with the accumulation Of gas,
sour risngs and heartburn
Mr.. A. w. Sharper, of No. 81 Prospect ST.,
indianapolis, Ind, writes as follows: "a

torty, but is based on actual facts.'
