ened heart was afraid Of the spirit
that rode the hurricane.
He urged his horse to a swift gallop
along the trail, rsloading his pistol as

question for him to reach any house
before the coming on of the wind and
rain which he we'll knew the cloud
was bringing; but he recollected that
there was q low. cane-thatched shed a
little way off the trail, which might
serve to shelter HIM aud his horse.
1t had been built by @ man who had
camped there while passing through
the country. Rameau reached it just

The rain was a deluge, and it was
driven with such force that it was like
breasting a mountain torrent to stand
in it. Some of the 1.-THE, slender trees
bent down end beat the ground with
their tops. The noise was q tumult
of the most awful sounds.

and trembled, but would not so, while
the rain poured. the lightning crashed

His Last Hope Realized.
From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.l

In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor OF this
paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During us
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim, he encount-
cred much bad water, which, together
with the severe heat, gave him very
severe diarrhoea which it seemed al
most impossible to check aud along
in June the case became so bad ne ex-
pected to die. One day one OF MS
neighbors brought him one small
bottle of Dhamberlain's Collie, Chol-
era end Diarrhoea Remedy as last
hope. A Zig dose was given MIN
while he was rolling about on the
ground in great agony, and IN a lew
minutes the dose was repeated, The
good effect of the medicine was soon
noticed and within an hour the patient
was taking his first sound sleep for a
FORTNIGHT. That one little bottle
worked a complete cure, and ne can
not help but feel grateful. The season
for bowel disorders being at mana
