The seven year old daughter OF Mr..

a severe case OF diptheria.
Mrs. DR.. Frick, OF Kansas City, went

worse than she was the day before.

DR.. N. b. Payne, who has just returned
from a visit to his old home in Kentucky,
informs us that the crops In that state are
being cut very short by drouth. The
corn will be very light, and the hemp is
only about four feet high. Kentucky
still raises a great deal OF hemp, and the
crop Of last year brought 800 per ton.
We have often wondered why there is
not some hemp raised in this county,
That used to be our principal crop.

sound of his name, his interest changed

About four o'clock in the morning,

ready dead was due only to the fact
that nurse was holding back the life
stream with her thumb.
About his cot stood the surgeon ant
several nurses, full of pity, but help
less before his hurrying fate. Only
the steady pressure of that thumb kept
him from immediate death,
"How long can | last, doctor" he
asked, in n feeble whisper.

The last words were almost innudi

ly for something which he wanted and
could not see.
The surgeon looked Mt the nurse who
was holding the blood in check. She
was faint from WEAKNESS and sym
pathy.

once" he said. "Carefully" MS she
made transfer of hands upon the gap
ing wound. Then he hurried out of the
room.
In few minutes he returned with
the army chaplain, Another nurse had
now taken her place. The dying lad
glanced up with wan happiness at the
minister, who Immediately began to
read the service, abridging it as much
as possible. TO the necessary questions
of faith the soldier answered as firmly
as he could, but everyone could see
that the excitement was telling on him
fearfully When at last the water
touched his forehead, his look of anxi-
ETY. gave way to one of ineffable peace.
AS the chaplain, after the Lords
Prayer, ended with the exhortation:
$50 should we, who are baptized, die
from sin, and rise again unto right
eousness," the lad opened his eyes.
The whitehead nurses were kneeling
about his cot, and every face was wet.
With last breath he looked up at
her who had his life in her keeping.
His face shone with hope and antici-
patton.
81 am ready now" he said, with great
distinctness. "You may take away
your hand"
He closed his eyes. In few minutes
he was dead.
A soul is not saved merely by cere-
mony, nor does the seed of the reli-
gious faith which sanctifes the cere-
mony always spring at once to life. 1t
may have been sown years before, in
the boyhood home; it may have lain
deep hidden in the nature, half-con-
sciously preserved, perhaps; but it will
show vitality in the great emergencies
of life and in the greater emergency
OF death. Only God, then, will meet
the souls needs. Only faith will re-

The Touching Close of n Young sOI-

Army Nurse,

The recollections Of 80 years have
taught us something of the sacrifices
Of the civil war, but much Of the glori-
Gus history of those peaceful heroines,
the hospital nurses, remains to be
written. 1t would be hard to find q
more touching incident than one which
was witnessed by Mrs, Barron, an army
nurse, in the College hospital at George
town.
A young soldier, not more than 10
years old, was brought in, wounded in
the shoulder. Although he had been
tightly bandaged, he was already pale
from loss Of blood. To the surgeon it
was evident at n glance that the wound
was mortal. The bullet had severed
an important artery, and the lad would
die in few minutes if the blood were
allowed to flow. That he was not al

refined oil was sold as low as four
cents. Rebates were made when
necessary, At Urbana, he said, he was
manager for the Standard company.
Here a competitor was driven out by a
threat to force the price down to one

Gen. Darius Couch, who during the

Of '63, wearing as usual an old slouch
hat and light civilian overcoat over
his stripes and epaulettes, he boarded

and casually dropped into the first un-
occupied seat that he came to. He had
been sitting there but moment when
dapper young officer, resplendent in
a new uniform, came along, touched
him on the shoulder and said:

my seat"

seat was taken" politely responded the
general,
For answer the youthful official
pointed to the rack above, containing
his sword and grip.

of apology took seat farther for1

tragedies with which the days and

it somehow touched the generals kind
heart in an unusual manner. An ema-

final farewell of his father and moth
err, both of whom wore the delicate,
pinched, hard-worked look of very
poor country people, and the mother
especially was scantily clad,
Presently came the last kiss, the
final grasp Of the hand, and the soldier
entered the cur, followed by the re-
strained, yearning gaze Of his parents.
Gen. Couch beckoned to the young
man to take the seat beside him and
Immediately engaged him in CONVERSE

law under which the committee acted
