BACK FROM DEATH

It is the firm belief Of President McKin-
ley that on several occasions, he did actually
recall his wife from the embrace of death by
that mysterious, sympathetic influence which
so closely binds her to him and his deter
mination that she should not be taken from
him.-Press dispatch.
Leave me not yet!
Back from the ocean Of oblivion
I'll bring thee, Oh, Incompatible onel
Before thy sail is set;
While at thy feet the ghostly waters fret
And the horizon rims thy sinking sun.
Not this the cross
Meath which my soul in agony must kneel:
'Tis mine to make the King OF Terrors feel
The bitterness Of loss;
To prove the gold of his allurements dross
Beside the alteration l reveal.
With me remainl
Still be thy voice the voice my cares to soothe.
Still be thy hand the hand my path TO
smoothe,
Still with thy love sustainl
High place would but bauble be and vain
Without the treasured prize won in youth.
Wilt thou not heed
My supplication? Haste, Oh, haste to light
The gloom Of this impenetrable night,
That chills me as I plead!
Barren all life and broken reed,
With thee secluded from my doting sight
Heard is my prayer!
Thou turnest, from the dim Lethean shore,
The eye OF love upon me as of yore,
And banishest despair.
Recedes the Land of Shadows, and in rare
Effulgence glows the lamp Of life once more.
And now arise
Birds Eden-piumaged on unfailing wing,
Circling and soaring high and higher to fling
Their anthems round my skies.
I've snatched from Azrael's embrace his
prize;
Reconouered Death procrastinates his stingl

PALE YOUNG GIRLS
HOW THEY MAY GAIN ROSY CHEEKS
AND BRIGHT EYES.
Miss Mary Wlnkleman, Of Rochester, N. Y,
Tells How She Was Restored to
Health and Strength and Re-
gained Her Color.
ErOm be DsmOcnaI ROchester, N Y

From the Democrat Rochester, NJ Y
What can be more distressing than to
see a girl dropping and fading in the
springtime of youth? Instead of bright
eyes, glowing, rosy cheeks and an elastic
step, there are dull eyes, pale, sallow or
greenish complexion, and a languidness
of step which means that she is suffering
from what the doctors term anaemia, or
a watery condition Of the blood. This
is a disease which cannot with safety be
neglected. Its certain outcome is an
early death If proper treatment is not
promptly resorted to and persisted in
until the impoverished blood is enriched
and the functions Of life become regular.
But thousands Of anaemic girls have re-
gained their health and happiness and
now, no longer without strength or am
bition, can tell how the transformation
was effected. One Of these is Miss Mary
Winkleman Of No. 90 Portland avenue,
Rochester, N Y, who suffered with
anaemia and general debility, and who
was fast running into that dreaded dis
ease, consumption. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills cured her. She says:
my system was all run down. There
was not particle Of color In my face,
my blood was thin and / thought I was
going into consumption. 1 didn't have
a bit of strength in my body, and, al
though not confined to my bed, l was
hardly able to get about the house;
neither could L sleep at night. Ny con-
dition was caused by overwork. My
mother is a dressmaker and l was obliged
to do all the housework, which was too
much for my strength, so I broke down.
For something less than a year / was
under the care of physician, but he did
me no good. Then 1 saw DR.. Williams
Doll od N
a booklet, and made up my mind to try
them. I began their use and by the end
of the first week could feel a marked i'm
proVement. I can sleep now, my color
has returned and 1 feel better than
have ever felt before"
Signed MISS MARY WINKLEMAN.

5th day Of April, 1901.

individual instruction, the work OF superin-
tendents, manual training, domestic science
and other subjects, including ''Simplifed
Spelling" This last topic received consider
able attention, but the resolution to appro-
priate 81, 900 for each Of the next five years
to be expended in promoting the cause of
simplifying" our English spelling under the
direction OF committee named by the asso-
citation, was, by a vote of los to n, indeh-
nitely postponed. Very earnest speeches
were made in behalf Of the resolution, and
every argument available was used, but the
opposition was too strong. The attempt in
1898 to Simplify twelve words has only re-
ceived encouragement from three pedagogic
journals, and in Chicago the prevailing sen
ument at the meeting was that there is no
demand by the public to make words easier
to spell and shorter to write by obvious mutt
lation OF the language in many cases. As
Slason Thompson Of the Chicago Times-Her-
aid said, the proposed reform "robs the
printed language Of ingram dignity Of form
and gives 1t the ludicrous appearance of
stump tailed fox. The philologists have
never added a single familiar word to the
language. Why should they be permitted to
monkey with it?" And, he said, the re-
formers would have us fall back on the
beautiful spelling Of Artemus Ward, Josh
Billings and Petroleum v. Nasty, and force
freak abbreviation" upon US. The burden
OF the argument Of the spelling reform speak
ers was that the dear children must be re-
Heved of the drudgery Of mastering the pres
ent spelling, and 1t was declared by some of
the orators that the children were killed"
IN going through the process. No proof Of
this was offered and the vote on the resolu-
ton showed that the plea of suffering and
slaughtered CHILDREN did not have much
weight There is no objection to writing
program" for programme" or "demagog''
FOR demagogue, because the derivation OF
such words is not destroyed by dropping the
nnal letters The extensive butchery con-
templated by the radical spelling reformers
Is not likely to be popularized in the tweu-
teth century at least. This report of the
Chicago meeting OF the superintendents can
be obtained from the secretary Of the Ma
uonal Association, Irwin Shepard. Winona,
Minn.

mond. Of an ancient Irish family, is be-
trothed to Phil Colston, q brilliant young
lawyer and leader of the Young Ireland

Short StOrIes-The Century Company,

OF very original and admirably constructed
short stories by John Luther Long author of
Madame Butterfly etc. The story, 1.-The
Prince Of Illusion" the title of the volume,
has note of deep pathos in It portraying the
brief life and death of a little blind boy
whose delusion that he was a prince with a
retinue and limitless wealth, was encouraged
by the impoverished and broken hearted
mother, who would keep the poor boy from
knowing the dire straits OF the household
Dolce" Is a charming little romance, told
in delicious conversation by Shandon, the
artist, and the Countessa Cassoli, who made
an astonishing revelation at its close, which
Shandon could hardly help relishing ''The
Dream Woman" is a bit OF romance Of the
Spanish war with a fine climax. In another
mood are The Horse Trade" "Jane an
Ne" "Ein Nix-Nuty,'' and others. Mr.. Long
has q copious reservation of humor aud he
has very decidedly caught the trick OF writ
ing unwearying short stories and knowing
when to stop.
