"Childhood days now pass before me.
Forms and scenes of long ago,
Like dream they hover DER me.
As calm and as bright as evening glow.

Mr.. NJ. drove on up to the gate where the lit
tie children We're huddled. Mary had opened the
gate and Mr.. NJ. had stopped to let Uncle Charley
out. "Why children, said Mr.. NJ. = What are
you doing out in the snow"
''Pease. sir" said Mary Papa has taken
worse, and poor mamma is weeping, and she sent
me to ask you if you would send for Doctor
Mitchell -
Certainly, little one will send immediately
and tell your mother that | will be over in a few
minutes myself. Now run home with that shv-
ering baby"
Then old Charley exclaimed in his wonderful
voice God bless the little lambs; how they do
run over the snow" And he burst forth with a
peal of laughter that could be heard far away
Uncle Charley went on to the dear old grist
mill for his quarter of -four that Aunt Dinah
might bake her delicious ginger cakes. Dear
little folks you would call them cart wheels if
you could them today. And it made no diff
ference whether Uncle Charley had any money
or not for Tommy Giles always filled his pillow
case, for it was Mackall's mill and the miller had
his orders in regard to old Charley or any others
who We're really needy But them, Tommy Giles
sent to the proprietor.
Mr.. NJ hurriedly ate his lunch and crossed the
foot log to the poor Wilson's beyond.

this place is something immense. To
say that it will hold 55,0u barrels, or
23JO,OJ0 gallons, sounds fairly large
but hardly conveys comprehensive
idea of its enormous proportions. A
better conception can be obtained by
reducing to train loads. To fill this
tank, thirteen trains of oil were re.
quired of thirty cars each, or total
of 39J cars. The first tank construct ed

The Man Who Was Good to Me.

Don't care-won't listen; don't want to
word that you have to say
BY way Of "knockiug" friend of mine
Who's helped me along the way.
No matter what you may think of him,
How grievouS your grudge may be,
You can't make me hear one word
against
The man who was good TO me!
One time when the friends who'd miled
aud smiled
While all was serene aud sweet,
Had fled like the mists when morning
breaks
happened one day to meet
The man you're striving to make me
hate;
With his hand close clas ping mine,
He said snow what can do for your"
His smile gave thrill like wine.
My heart grew strong with the strength
of him;
And his warm clasp held my hand
Till all the danger had passed me by
As his kindly heart had planned.
He laughed with tears in his hearty
voice
When would have thanked; for he
Had done me good for the goods own
sake,
This man who was good 10 me.
Don't care-won't listen; don't want to
hear
A word you may have to say
Against this blessedest friend of niue
Who helped me along the way:
No matter what Others think of him,
How grievous their grudge may be
I'm loyal always and evermore
To him who was good to me-

Mexico Treasure .

Thomas II. Rencbart, an attorney of
Guthrie, Oklahoma, is in Monterey for
the purpose of finding buried 6Jn,00cS
in gold bullion. He is convinced that
his mission will be successful, but be-
fore securing the fortune he desires to
secure permission of the government
of this state to remove it from Mexico.
Under the law Of this country one. half
of any discovered treasure goes to the
government and the re remainder cannot
be removed from the country. Rem
chart is endeavoring to secure al ex-
emption from both these provisions of
the law, but il the government Is un.
willing to waive its right to one half of
the treasure he at least hopes to be
permitted to remove the remainder out
of the country. Renchart says that be
knows the exact location of the buried
bullion and that it will take him but a
short time to secure it when tine legal
obstacles referred to above are re-
moved.
Renchart relates startling and stir.
ring account of the treasures. Accord
ing to his story there came to Mexico
Immediately after the close of the Civil
war in the United States five unrecon-
structed confederates who we're in
search of adventure. They led wild
lives and in short time became ban.
dts in the full sense of that word.
They bad their rendezvous In cave on
Saddle mountain, near Monterey In
one of their raids they attacked pack
from the Pima Alta mines laden with
gold bullion. They killed and drove
of the armed guards and secured the
treasure, valued at 600,OOOS and started
for Monterey, where they hoped to
turn it into cash. They were closely
pursued by a detachment of Federal
troops and In order to make their es.
cape they were forced to bury the gold
at spot within five miles OF Monterey.

of the mem bers Of this desperate band

before they could seek refuge in Mon

Der escaped for the time being, but
was arrested in Monterey two days
later on another charge and was taken
to the City Of Mexico, where he served
long term 10 prison and was deported
leaving the country by way of Vera
Cruz. He landed in New Orleans and
lived In that city for many years, re-
moving to Arkansas and thence to
Oklahoma few years ago. In all his
wanderings he has carefully preserved
the crude map showing the location of
the buried treasure, but fearing arrest
for his old crime he would never ven.
ture into Mexico after the wealth. A
few weeks ago he revealed the secret of
his life to Renchart, and the latter ac-
cepted the charge of getting possession
OF the treasure of his client, whose
name he declines to divulge.

HIS Last Hope Realized.

(From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.)
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this pa
per was among the many seekers after
fortune who made the big race one fne
day In April. During bis travelling
about and afterwards his camping up
on his claim. he encountered much
bad water, which, together with the
severe heat, gave him very severe
diarrhoea which it seemed almost i'm
possible to check, and along in June
the case became so bad he expected TO
die. One day one of his neighbors
brought him one small bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as a last hope. A big dose
was given him while he was rolling
about on the ground in great agony,
and in few minutes the dose was re.
peated The good effect Of the medi
cine WAS soon noticed and within an
hour the patient was taking his first
sound sleep for fortnight. That one
little bottle worked complete cure,
aud he cannot help but feel grateful.

at hand suggests this item. For sale
