OLD SONGS.
1 want to hear the old songs,

l want to hear the old songs,
The songs used to hear,
When every day brought happiness,
And fancy houted fear;
When sunsets glory, ever new,
Foretold morn more bright
want to hear the old songs,
Oh, sing me one tonight.
1 want to hear the old songs,
No thrilling, no roulade,
Where music dons her lace and gems
And trips in masquerade.
But give to me the simple strain
That seeks the heart outright,
And nests within its deepest part
All. sing me one tonight.
| want to hear the old songs,
Their names l need not tell;
Thequaint old names mean naught to you,
But can feel their spell.
Each one, key, can open to me
The garden of delight
That blossomed in my vanished youth
Oh, sing me one tonight.
| want to hear the old songs
l never hear them now
The tunes that cheer the tired heart
And smooth the care-worn brow,
Heard in the twilight's dreamy hour,
Best suited to their flight,
Each cadence like a blessing falls
All, sing me one tonight.
want to hear the old songs,
The gentle lullabies
That reft me of my WEAKNESS
And closed my childish eyes;
The tabled music of the spheres
Beside those strains would blight.
The dear old songs my mother sang
Oh, sing me one tonight.

LOSS OF A MILLION DOLLARS.

The greatest fire since the confagra-
tion of 1904, involving property loss
of about 81, ,0O0, 900 and the sacrifice of
four lives, occurred the 18th on the
water front in Baltimore.
For time the entire harbor front was
threatened with destruction on the north
side, the flames being with difficulty
kept within the confines of the wharf
of the Merchants and Miners Trans
portation Company, and on the south
side stubborn battle being fought to
preventa wholesale destruction of prop
erty by fire spread from the steam
ship Essex and six barges, which were
burned.

How to Break up a COLD.

1t may be a surprise to many to learn that a
severe cold can be completely broken mp in
one or two days. time. The first symptoms of
cold are a dry, loud congh, profuse watery
discharge from the nose, and a thin, white
coating on the tongue. When Chamberlains

appearance of these symptoms, it counteracts

TOMATOES ADVANCE IN PRICE.

AVMAiOES ADNANCE IN PRICE.
The wholesale price for canned toma-
toes advanced two aud one-half cents per
case, the syndicate of packers and
others, who control about 1000, 900
cases. having notified their brokers and
wholesalers that the price viii be ad-
vanced from SLIT to $1.20 per case.
1t is understood that there are only
about 5000 free cases of tomatoes in
Baltimore outside the holdings of the
syndicate. The rise is said to be due to
the frost having killed the early tomato
plants, the subsequent drought and the
partial failure to date on the pea crop.
The lack of peas for packing is said to
have helped the advance of the tomato
prices.
SOME SOUTHERN PLANTER" ADVICE.
Keep the cultivator running in the
crops to encourage growth and keep
down weeds.
Sweet potatoes should be planted out
at once. A sandy loam soil is the best
for this crop and good fertilizer for
it may be made by mixing $50 lbs. of
nitrate of soda, $50 lbs. of acid phos-
phate and $50 lbs. of muriate of pot
ash, applying this quantity on one acre
if the land is poor.
Try the following remedy for chicken
cholera: One desert Tor two tea) spoon
full of castor oil. Open the hens mouth
and pour it down her throat as soon as
you discover that she is sick. In every
case in which tried, the fowl seemed to
be in normal condition in twenty-four
hours. The fowl should be put where
1T will not be disturbed by other fowls.
After the strawberry crop has been
gathered, if the bed is years or more
old plow up and sow COW peas on the
land and prepare other land for plant
ing in the fall. Land which has grown
IRISH potatoes will usually make good
place to grow strawberries. If the
bed is only a year old and is to stand
for another years crop, NOW off the
leaves and sprinkle some straw on
them and set them on fire. This will
destroy insects and fungoid spores.
Plant hill of corn every few yards
amongst the tomato plants. This will
save the tomatoes from the worms,
which prefer corn to feed on. The
corn can be cut with the worms on it
and be fed to stock. Mustard sowed
amongst the cabbage and other plants
of the same family will save them from
terapin bugs. These will settle on the
mustard and can there be killed with
kerosene. Melons and cucumbers can
largely be protected from the melon
louise by busting them with bone meal
when wet with dew.
