"OC TOIER."

On the altar Of the world
All the hopes of spriu.; are furle6,
All OF autrrnn's gifts are spread
Where the summer rests her head
Earth warm passions, fresh-lipped you'll
Wraiths OF love and ghosts Of truth.
Broken dreams and visions lost
All Of these are heapcd and tossed
on the sacrihcial pile
Where IN majesty the while
Summer sleeps In solemn state.
Sleeps upon a bed ornate
streWn with boughs OF pine and larch
Nature then applies the torch.
First a spark-then leaps among
Oak and beech a tiny tongue.
Darts OF gold and tips of yellow
Touch the branches Of the willow.
And the growing color spreads
Into fierce and flaming reds,
Kindling bush and brake and hrieT
With the surging sacred fire.
Maple clusters all aglow.
slim white birches In n row
Trembling in the woodland ways.
Burst into a golden blaze,
Even slender grass and fern
Droop and wither rs they burn.
While the clean green earth is lost
In this holy holocaust.
Now the wakencd winds and free
Swing the brands from tree 10 tree.
And the fire spreads until
Every mountain side and hill.
Every vale and garden close
In the widest radiance glows-
TIL the flames that leap unfurled
Sweep and inundate the world
And the martyred summer lies
Burning with her sacrifice.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustacbian Tube. When this tube is iuhammed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed condition of the mucous surfaces
