pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure

a constitutional disease requires a

DISTANT GUNS.

A faint tinge of light appeared In the
east. The moon, whose tipped face
was sinking in the west as though it
were dropping asleep after its nightly
vigil, began to lose its golden hue and
take on silver gray under the COM
ing sunlight. There was the hush which
precedes the opening of day. Here and
there on either shore bird that had
not yet set out for its winter resort
was chattering over its work OF get-
ting breakfast, Above us was an Is
land, and half a mile above the island
was Doughty's ferry-the ferry we
sought. Pulling into little cove near
the north end, and dragging the bow of
the boat up on the shore, we threw our
selves on the ground, and in five min
utes We're sound asleep.
We were awakened by men shouting
orders, and as soon as could raise my
heavy eyelids saw column of con-
federate cavalry riding down the east
bank to the river. Following the ford,
their course lay directly off the island
on which we were concealed. Most of
their officers were well clad in con-
federate gray, while the men wore any
thing, chiefly nbutternut." They
splashed across the river, striking the
road on the opposite side leading from
the ferry.
They're going for the plantation"
exclaimed.
"Harkl What was that? Distant
thunder?"
Thunder? Not in November. Ehat
was gun, and not a morning gun
either. Ny Gods, it's afternoon!
There's a fight going on somewhere"
Another gun"
"Of to the west, in the direction of
the plantation. see how is. They're
attacking Wilton, or the general, II he
is there"
BY this time the cavalry had reached
the road on the west bank, and soon
after the last files disappeared behind
the hills.
II think we had better pull for the
west ferry" said Margaret. They're
doubtless going to join in the fight,
and we'll have little difficulty In fol-
lowing the road In their wake"
Launching our boat, we pulled to the
west shore, striking it short distance
below the ferry. climbed the emf
nence, and saw that the coast was
clear.
"All right" said, returning to Mar
garet. There's no obstacle in sight;
we can take to the land and let the
boat go. Good-by, old skiff," and 1
pushed it out into the stream. "You
have served us well.'
"Good-by," said Margaret. "Go back
to your owner and tell him how thank
full we are to him for your use. Say
We're sorry we couldn't have asked
permission to take you"
The boat nodded, as 1t rode the wave
let's, as If to say: "Good-by. I'll take
your message" Just then the boom
ing, which had ceased, recommended.
" A parting salute" ! remarked. "Let
