Backward, turn backward, o Time in your fight.
Make me child again. just for tonight.
Mother, come back from that echoless shore,
Take again to your heart as of yore.
Kiss from my forehead the burrows of care,
Smooth the few silver threads out OF my hair;
Over my sumbers your loving watch keep
Rock me to sleep, mother; rock me to sleep.
Backward, flow backward, tide of the years; i.
l weary of toll and of tears;
Toll without recompense, tears all in vain,
Take them, and give my childhood again.
have grown weary of dust and decay,
Weary of finging my soulwreath away;
Weary of sowing for others to reap;
Rock me to sleep, mother; rock me to sleep.
Tired of the hollow, the base, the untrue,
Mother, o mother, my heart calls for you!
Many summer the grass has grown green,
Blossomed and faded faces between,
Yet with strong yearning and passionate pain
Long tonight for your presence again.
Come from the silence SO long and Geep;
Rock me to sleep, mother. rock me to sleep.
over my heart in the days that are flown,
No love like mother-love ever has shone;
No other worship abdes and endures-
Faithful unselfsh and patient like yours;
None like mother charm away pain
From the sick soul and the world-weary brain
slumher's soft Gains Ger my heavy lids Creep &s
Rock me to Sleep mother: rock me to sleep.
Come let your brown hair, just lighted with gold,
Fall your shoulders again as of old;
Let it drop over my forehead tonight,
Shading my faint eyes away from the light;
For with its sunny-edged shadows once more E
Happy will throng the sweet visions Of yore;
Lovingly, softly its bright pillows sweep;
Rock me to Sleep mother; rock me to sleep.
Mother, dear mother, the years have been long
Since last listened to your lullaby song;
Sing, then, and INTO my soud it shall seem #
Womanhoods years have been only a dream. S
Clasped to your heart in loving embrace,
With your light lashes Just sweeping your face
Never hereafter to wake or to weep;
Rock me to sleep, mother; rock me to sleep.

Pueblo Man Kills Bandit.

Pueblo.-Steve Gregor, as he en-
tered the gate leading to his home,
was attacked by two highwaymen,
who demanded him to throw up his
hands and give over all the money he
had, amounting to s4OO. Gregor
lodged two shots fired by the high
waymen, and, whipping out his own
revolver, shot one of the men through
the mouth and in the left breast, kill
ing him instantly. The other man
broke and ran and eluded the officers.
Gregor had closed his saloon a little
after midnight and was returning
home. The highwaymen held up four
other persons earlier in the evening
and secured over $10O in money and
two gold watches. To show their ap-
probation of his act in killing one of
the highwaymen, residents of the
neighborhood in which Gregor lives
are planning celebration.

BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
scale. Then it would break out
again and it spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
1t kept spreading until 1t was on his
hands and arms. l bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time.
He had 1t about six months when .
friend told me about Cuticura. l sent
and got bottle of Cuticura Resolvent.
cake OF Cuticura Soap and box OF
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles of Resolvent. two
boxes of Ointment and three cakes OF
Soap he was sound and well, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
Il have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since
to use for cuts and sores and have
never known them to fail to cure what
