The Lost Chords,

The village concert was to be a
great affair. They had the singers,
they had the program sellers, they
had the doorkeepers and they would
doubtless have the audience. All they
needed was the piano, but that they
lacked. Nor could they procure one
anywhere.
At last the village organist learned
that n was possessed by Farmer
Hayseed, who lived "at the top O. the
ILL.," Forthwith he set out with two
men and a van.
Take it, an welcome" said Hay,

A BURNING ERUPTION FROM
HEAD TO FEET

-Four years ago l suffered severely
with a terrible eczema, being a mass
Of sores from head to feet and for six
weeks confined to my bed. During
that time l suffered continual torture
from itching and burning. After being
given up by my doctor | was advised
to try Cuticura Remedies. After the
first bath with Cuticura Soap and ap-
plication Of Cuticura Ointment / en-
joyed the first good sleep during my
entire illness. | also used Cuticura
Resolvent and the treatment was con-
tinued for about three weeks. At the
end of that time | was able to be
about the house, entirely cured, and
have felt no Ill effects since. I would
advise any person suffering from any
form of skin trouble to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies, as l know what they
did for me. Mrs. Edward Nenning,

Warmly, the boys all babe him a re-
iuctant, and, as they believed, a last
goodby, and away they went at a
swift gallop.
Tom proceeded along the road that
they had taken until he came to a large
eorn field. Into the midst Of this he
plunged, and there kneeled upon the
ground, in obedience to a promise made
to his indian mother, who was a de-
veut Christian, and whose implicit
faith would put to shame the feebler
quality given to many people Of greater
pretensiOns, that he would always ap-
peal to God for help in cases Of emer-
Bency.
IT went at it in mighty earnest" said
Squire Tom, but with the most i'm
plicit faith hat God would hear and
answer my prayer. 1t may seem ridic-
ulous to you that l should have prayed
30 long and so earnestly while intend
Ing all the time to steal the first horse
tina I laid eyes pom but l was pray
Ing for a horse, and l believed that
God would send me one, to take as a
gift from Him or to steal as a neces-
sity Of war"
1t was II o'clock in the forenoon
when his companions left him. 1t was
noon when he entered the corn field.
1t was shutdown when he heard sounds
as of a body Of men and a train of
wagons moving up the road, and there
upon brought his long prayer to a
close. He crept to a point where he
could see, and sure enough a body of
federal troops and a wagon train were
passing by.
Hungry and thirsty to the point of
faintness, Tom was rejoiced beyond
expression when he discovered a large
number Of fine watermelons in the part
Of the corn field where he was now
standing. Eating as much Of the de-
licious fruit as he wished, he crept
along, concealed by the friendly corn,
until he saw the federal force going
into camp near a barn and some cribs,
He remained concealed until after
darkness had fallen, and, fortunately
for him, pale moonlight soon succeed
ed. With everything became still he
reconnoitered and discovered hat a
number Of horses were grazing not very
far from the barn. The position of the
sentries he could not make out, but
the risk Of challenge was one that
must be taken.
Lying down and dragging his saddle
and bride as best he could, he crept
TO the nearest horse and tried to Sc
cure 1t. but the animal CAV a slight
snort and ran away from him. He
made several attempts with similar re-
suits, but finally came to a large ami
NAL which showed no fear.
Quickly placing his saddle and bride
| securely for a desperate ride he mount
ed, and avoiding the road, where he
knew sentries were sure to be posted
he made off into the fields and over
fences, until he felt fairly secure from
successful pursuit. Then, having a fine
knowledge Of stars and woodcraft In
general, he took observations, and pro-
ceeded in the general direction of the
spot he thought his comrades were
likely to have left the road, avoiding It
and still proceeding through fields. for
ests and over fences.
Even In this emergency the lessons
which his mother had taught him were
