a savage lion. The men who perform this
foolhardy act are few and far between.
There are tens of thousands of men who
daily do a much more rash and dangerous
deed. They are the men who overwork
and neglect their health No man can do
this with impunity. The inevitable result
is serious illness and premature death.
One of the most common results of care
lessness in regard to health is consumption.
There is one, and only one, unfailing rem
edy for this dread disease II is DR.. Pierce's

SELECTED POETRY.
The Difference.

The Difference.
"Your mother was old and feeble
Her iife-work was done, yeu know
The friends Of her youth had vanished,
She was ready and glad to go.
You ought not grieve so deeply"
These we're easy words to say,
1t was somebody el,e's mother
Who had gone DER the silent way.
"Yes, twas hard to lose Jour baby,
But think of the trouble and care
She is saved; the sin, the suffering;
You ought to be willing to bear
The pain, since for her 'tis better
Such easy words to say
When somebody else's baby
Had gone DER the silent way.
But when twas my own dear mother
Who lay so still and white,
The loving lips all silent,
In the eyes no welcoming light,
Then where were those words OF wisdom
That hsd been wont to say
When somebody elses mother
Had gone DER the silent way.
When missed from my arms my baby,
knew IL was better so;
She was safe-but the pain. the longing
That only we mothers know,
Was.all could feel; no echo
OF the words used to say
To others, brought me comfort
When my baby went DER the way.
ALI friends, such words are empty
When the heart is bruised and sore
With the first shock OF bereavement.
We knew 1t all before,
But we only feel the anguish;
We have no words to say
or wisdom and resignation,
When our own go over the way.
SO offer only silence,
The sympathizing tear,
The clasp Of the hand, the blossoms
To strew DER the form so dear;
These bring to the sad heart comfort
Beyond aught words can say,
When somebody else's dear ones
Have gone DER the silent way.

To an Old silhouette.


Oh sweet silhouette CT days gone by,
With comb and dropping curls.
Were you In the dreamy, golden Past
The dearest Of all dear girls?
Was your hair Of gold7 Did 1t treasure
The wanton sunbeam's ray?
Did your eyes fash fire or were they calm
As noon on a summers day.
Did you smile and sigh? Did your cheeks blush
At low-breathed words Of praise3
Were feet as light in the minuetl
AS now in the waltz's maze?
Danced you the step of the gay "beau monde"
With glances, whispers, sighs2
Or were you holy and sweety fair
With nunlike peace in your eyes2
The still faint odor of rose leaves dead
Yet fingers about the Past,
Like the thoughts of a vanished love.tale,
Too fragrantly sweet to last.
In the firelight's glow seem to see
Cleans OF your tresses bright,
The chasm Of years bridge with sigh.
And stand by your side to night

A Terrible Fire

About O'Clock Friday morning
Capt. James Clibbitt, who
lives out near York, was awak-
ened by a terrific roaring, which
he at first took to be a train pass
ing. He got up and was horri-
fed to see his big barn wrapped
IN flames. He rushed out. and
with his hired men and a neigh
hor's family, went heroically to
work to save the adjacent build
ingS and even the dwelling, all OF
which caught at different times
and had to be kept Wet. They
were fortunate in having plenty
of buckets and good well of
water. The barn was a total
loss with It's contents. Two work
horses and one mule We're burned
to a crisp, and a large quantity
Of corn, harness and farming inn
plementS.
The barn was undoubtedly set
on fire as there was moi hing
stored IN it to generate heat, and
there had been no fire near it for
some time. Several years ago
Captain Cribbitt had his barn
and feed burned, and, strange TO
say, three horses. The first time
there was no insurance, this time
a small sum only.
The neighborS are making an
investlgat a. to the origin of
the fire. and should it develop
that the barn was set on fire and
the perpetrator can be caught he
may get taste of his beloved
element or something almost as
warm, as the neighbo rhood is
much aroused and very indIg-
nant.
Captain Cribbitt is one of our
best citizens, a man who iS every
bOdy,s friend. and is respected by
the whole community.
Barn burning is entirely TOO
common in Marion county and an
example should be made if the
fire fiend is caught.
