I traversed the passage, and down at her 'ide'
was sitting, moment more
MY thinking Of her, OF the music's strain,
Or something which will Be expfsst
Had brought her back from the grave again.
&, With the jasmine In her breast
She Is not Dead and she Is not wedl
Bot she loves me now and she loved me then'
And the very first word that her sweet lips said'
My hear grew youthful again.
Yte,Manh oness there, Of Carabas,
She Is wealthy and young, and handsome 'til'
And but for her. :. we'll. we'll let that pass.
She may marry whomevef she will.
Bot I will marry my own first love,
With her primrose face, for old things are tess'
At the flower IN her bosom, prize It above
The brooch In my lady's breast.
The world Is filled with folly and sin,
And Love must cling where 1t can, lay
For Beauty il easy enough to whit
But one ID not loved every day.
AndI think, in the lives Of most women and men,
There's moment when ali would 60 smooth and even
II only the dead cou'd lind out when
To come back and be forgiven.
But Oh the smell Of that jasmine flower!
And oh, that music! and oh, the way

AT Paris 1t was, at the opera there
And she looked like queen in a book that night
With the wreath Of pearls in her raven hair,
And Ne brooch on he, breast, so bright.
OF all the operas that Verdi wrote,
The best, to my taste, is the "Trovators;''
And Mario soohe with tenor note

And who was thrilled in the strangest way,
As we heard him sing, while the gas burned fow,

The emperor there, in his box Of state,
Looked grave, as if he had just then seen
The red flag wave from the city gate,
Where his eagles in bronze had been.
The empress, too, had tear in her eye,
You'd have said that her fancy had gone back again.
For one moment under the old blue sky
To the old glad life in Spain.
Well, there in Our front-row box we sat
Together, my bride berothed and Il
NV gaze was fixed on my opera-hat,
And hers on the stage hard by.
And both were silent and both were SAD.
Like queen she leaned on her foil white arm,
With that regal, ndolent air she had
So confident Of her charm!
Ihave not doubt she was thinking then
OF her former lord-good soul that he was-
Who died the richest and roundest Of men,
The Marquis Of Carabas.
Ibops that, to get to the kingdom Of heaven,
Through needles eye he had not to PASS

To my Lady Of Carabas.

As had not been thinking OF aught tor years.

ing her will disprove the charges and re-
store Pegs good name" And it might
have so proven. if Gen. jackson had not
taken him into the Cabinet
Mr.. Eaton and Mrs. Timberlake were
married in January, 1929, few weeks
before Gen. jackson arrived at the seat of
Government.
1t is fact worthy Of note that this Ad-
ministration, which represented a certain
contempt for social forms and rules of eti-
quet, should be cast upon the breakers
and go to pieces upon that rock 1t is an
old saying that etiquet is never burden
some until we try to get rid of it.
No sooner had the marriage taken place
than people began to demonstrate with
Jackson on the ground that Eaton was TO
be in the Cabinet. His sharp retort was
that Mrs. Eaton was not to be in the Cabi-
net. Had this been the case the matter
would have dropped there. but Gen. Eaton
was placed in the Cabinet, and through this
Mrs. Eaton was introduced to the first cir
Gle of Washington. She was not recog-
nized by the wives of the other Secretaries
or the wife of the Vice-President. She used
methods questionable to force her way, and
Gen. jackson tried to help her. He brought
it into politics!
r. NJ. Johnson was o-between to recon-
cile the Secretaries and secure their favor
toward reconciing their wives to recognize
Mrs. Eaton. 1t did not work
Mrs. Donaldson, wife of Jackson's neph-
ew and Private Secretary, presiding lady at
the White House, packed her trunks and
went home rather than have her Judgment
overruled and be forced to recognize Mrs.
Eaton.
Mrs. Huyghens, wife of the Dutch Minis
ter, refused to sit by Mrs. Eaton at public
ball. jackson threatened to send her hus-
band home.

HEART DISEASE
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease of Heart Trouble.

Heart trouble, at least among the Ameri.
cans, Is certainly increasing, and while
this may be largely due to the excitement
and worry of American business life, it is
more often the result of weak stomachs.
of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable: but
not one case in q hundred of heart trouble
is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion is because both organs
are controlled by the same great nerves,
the Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also, the heart is affected
by the form of poor digestion which causes
gas and fermentation from half-digested
food. There is feeling of oppression and
heaviness in the chest caused by pressure
of the distended stomach ON the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin and watery, which irritates
and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and to
insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found
at most drug stores, and which contain
valuable, harmless, digestive elements in a
pleasant, convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular persistent
use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets at meal
time will cure any form of stomach trouble
except cancer of the stomach

by druggists at SO cents. Little book on
stomach troubles mailed free. Address

MRS. EATON PEGGY o'NEAL).

Bank. When he rode through the streets
of New York no man had ever received so
popular an ovation. He had become so
much a part OF political party that we
have been repeatedly told that in some of
the rural districts of the country politicians
find men to this day still voting for Jack
son. A man of such strong personality
and convictions makes warm friends and
bitter enemies. Jackson had both of these
in large quantities.
1t is not the political side of this Admin
istration as much as the social that we
shall dwell upon in this letter. Gen. Jack
son, with all his austere appearance, was
the possessor of a heart that could be worked
upon like child's, tender to degree and
true as steel. His affection for his wife, his
untiring solcitude for her welfare. his utter
despair when she was suddenly taken from
him, reveals side OF his nature that every
one likes to dwell upon.
1t was the December before his inaugura-
fon that Mrs. jackson died with measles
Gen. Jackson never recovered from the
shock of her death. II is said that he was
ever after subdued in spirit and more tender
in speech. 1t was rarely after this that he
would become excited enough to Use "pro-
fame language" and seldom used his pet
phrase, By the Eternal" His domestic
life was governed by what he believed she
would approve.
There was scarcely time for mourning
before Gen. jackson had TO leave the Her
mitage for the White House. Haggard
with grief and watching, grown 20 years
older in night" he was compelled to enter
at once upon his labors. 1t is said he kept
miniature of his wife on stand at his
bedside as long as he was in the White
House.
But positions were given and lost,
Soon after Gen. jackson arrived in
Washington he informed Mr.. Edward

stall, IN which case the Admiral would be
separated from the other officers of the
Navy, and be closely followed by Ma. aj.-Gen.
Miles and his staff. The reason for this pro-
posed departure is the difference in per-
sonar rank OF the two commanders, Ad-
mlral Dewey being 'the Admiral" and
zen. Miles one OF numerous Ma ajor-Generals,
aithouSh the ranking officer of that grade
and the Commanding General of the Army,
subject only to the direction of the President
and Secretary of War. Admiral Dewey
is likewise third in rank in his branch of
the service, the President being the Com

CAPTURE OF THE 10th ILL. CAV.
"reminiscences of the Fight at Jouesvi,le Va

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In
August, 1894, while on visit with my
aged grandfather to his birthplace on
Powell's River, Is miles southwest of Jones
vile, Lee County, | visited also my rela-
tives around Jonesville, and found that a
cousin OF rnlne,-then young lady,-Miss
Fits, was living with her grandfather,
old Mr.. Milburn, who owned and occupied
the large brick house a mile west Of Jones'
vile, which was the headquarters of Maj.
Beers at the time of your attack and capt
ure by Gen. Jones's Division. She told
me of interceding with the Major to prevent
him from using hot cannon-balls in dis
lodging the rebels from the Martin frame
house, a few hundred yards southwest of
the brick, as the Martins, though rebels
were personal friends. He did not use red
hot balls; but several balls went through
the house, one of which went through
partly in the edge of door and partly in
the casing. This has never been repaired,
and stands a grim memento of the affair.
with cannon-ball picked up in the orchard
beyond for door-weight. This young
lady married Capt. Joslyn, of Massachu-
sets regiment, who met her while there
settling claims after the war for the Govern
ment, and they live between the creek and
JoneSville.
A cousin there, by marriage, John Bart
ley, was scout with your force the morning
that y-c2 were attacked, and pointed to
Beers an easy path out through the mount
aims to the north before the rebels had
surrounded your force. This Beers re-
fused to accept; whereupon BARLEY applied
Tor PERMISSION to escape, which he did
easily.
Col. Pridmore, commander of the valiant
Home Guard regiment which you so sum-
marily defeated, on first going into the
Valley, is yet living in Jonesville, but has
ever since that sanguinary engagement
been known by the sobriquet of Col. run
