GALLAUDET, Ind., Marion Co., April 30, 1895. DEAR SIR:—I have been a sufferer from raronic diarrhoea ever since the war. At aies unable to follow my vocation, that ••of a farmer. Last fall I was so bad with my old trouble that I became very weak which coutinued yuntil about the first -of {December when your special agent Mr. T. D. Cotton called on me and insisted that I give your Liver and Kidney Cure atrial. I had taken in these many years every thing
I
could hear of and re
ceived no benefits. After taking one bottle of your medicine I found myself cured of my old army enemy and have had no symptoms] of my trouble since. I continued its use for kidney and bladder trouble of which I was also a sufferer and at present believe I am entirely cured. I can heartily recommend your Acme Kidney aud Liver Cure to like sufferers. Yours Truly.

troubled for
16 years viua Kidney and Liver disease, wad unable to work a great deal of my time on account of chronic diarrhoea. I had tried several good physicians and could gee no cure. About Jan. 19th, 1895, I was induced by your agent, Mr. T. D. Cotton to buy your Acme Kidney and Liver cure and after using the first bottle I found myself greatly improved. I continued the use and find myself entirely cured. In fact have had no trouble since taking the first bottle. This is for .the benefit of suffering humanity. with great respect,

If I Could Keep Her So.
-Just a little baby, lying in my armsWould that I could keep you with your baby charms
Helpless, clinging fingers downy, golden hair, Where the sunshine lingers, caught from otherwhere Blue eyes asking questions, lipe that cannot speak, Rollypolly shoulders, dimple in your cheekDainty little blossom in a world of woe, Thus I fain would keep you, for I love you so.
Roguish little damsel, scarcely six years old, Feet that never weary, hair of deeper gold Restless, busy fingers, all the time at play Tongue that never ceases talking all tho day: Blue eyes learning wonders of the world about, Here you come to tell them—what an eager shout 1 Winsome little damsel) All the neighbors know Thus I long to keep you, for I lovo you so.
Sober little schoolgirl, with your strap of books And such grave importance in your puzzled looks, Sk)lving weary problems, poring over sums, Yet with tooth for sponge cake and for sugar plums. Reading books of romance iu your bed at night, Waking up to study in tho morning light, Anxious as to ribbons, deft to tio a bow, Full of contradictions—I would keep you so.
Sweet and thoughtful maiden, sitting by my side, All the world's before you, and the world is wide. Hearts there are for winning, hearts there are to break. Has your own, shy maiden, just begun to wake? la that rose of dawning glowing on your cheek, Telling us in blushes what you will not speak? Shy and tender maiden, I would fain forego All tho goldeii future just to keep you so.
Ah I the listening angels saw that she was fair, Ripe for raro unfolding in the upper air. Now the rose of dawning turns to lily white, And the close shut eyelids veil the eyes from sight. All the past I summon as I kiss her brow— Babe and child and maiden—all aro with me now. Though my heart is breaking, yet God's love
I know-
Safe
among tho angels—I would keep her so. —Louise Chandler Moulton.

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
LEARNED A LESSON.
The Boy With the Umbrella No Longer Wanted to Be a Big General.
In the middle of the garden stood a little boy under a big umbrella. He always kept it spread, no matter what the weather might be, and winter and summer, day and night, he was always in his place. A fountain fell on the top of the umbrella, which was iron, and all around the boy, who was iron too. "Oh, dear," thought the boy, "how I hate to carry this old umbrella! I wish I was the stone general over there in the park, and then I could always ride on horseback. "Then, instead of this ridiculous old thing, I should have a great long sword in my hand, aud I'd hold it right over tho people's heads, as if I was going to fight them all!" You see, he was a boy, although only an iron one.
Meanwhile the air in the garden was growing more and more sultry, but he did not feel it in the middle of the cool fountain. The people in the hot, dusty 'street looked longingly at the iron boy in his snug little water house. How they wished that they could change places with him!
At last a great drop fell, and then another, and then it seemed as if some one was pumping water out of the clouds. Everybody rushed home as fast as possible. A little schoolboy ran past and looked up at the iron boy. ?.•• "Wish I was that fellow!" he shouted. "Hullo, lend us your parasol?" But the iron boy only stood still and sulked. "Oh, may I come under your umbrella?" gasped a butterfly, who was caught in her new spring dress. "How wise you are always to carry one!" She sat on his finger and dried her blue and gold suit. The rain fell in torrents all around thera, but it did not touch her.
At last the sun came out again and made a great rainbow in the sky and a little bow in the fountain. The butterfly said that she must go. "You have saved my life, you kind boy!" she said gratefully. "This dreadful storm would have quite washed away poor little me. "How much nicer to hold an umbrella over such a helpless little thing than to flourish a sword like that big stone doll yonder!" And waving her pretty wing to him away she flew. "Perhaps she is right," thought the iron boy. And he held the despised umbrella straight and high as if he was proud of it, after All.—Youth's Companions.

Get an Egg and Spin It«
In fact, get two eggs, one boiled and the other raw, and spin them rapidly on their sides on a mirror or other perfectly smooth surface. If you put the palm of your hand gently upon the boiled egg while it is spinning, it of course ceases to move, and remains motionless after you have lifted your hand.
But if you do the same with a raw egg it will immediately begin to spin again when the hand is removed. Indeed, it is extraordinary how long you can hold your hand upon it without destroying its motion.
The reason of this is no doubt apparent. The fluid within the shell continues to revolve, though the shell is stationary, while in the other case the whole egg is stupped.
If you attempt to spin the egg on the miiTor like a top, you will find that the boiled egg will spin for a considerable time, but the other will fall almost immediately on its wide.—Pearson's Weekly-

Mrs. Cleveland's Collection of Letters.
In the matter of letters from people of prominence all over the United States Mrs. Cleveland has about as valuable a collection as is to be found. Probably after the close of the present administration Mrs. Cleveland will carry into execution long cherished plans and have all these letters compiled into a series of volumes. Many of the letters date back to when it first came to be whispered that she was to wed the president. Then there are the letters received with the wedding presents, that of themselves make a valued collection of autographs. Some idea of the extent to which a personal correspondence can accumulate in this respect is told by Mrs. Cleveland in regard to her experience during the years of the first Cleveland administration. Those of the letters received that were of purely personal character from her friends were always kept, until finally six immense Saratoga trunks were filled. When preparations for the removal of the president and his wife to New York were started, Mrs. Cleveland found a task that could not be delegated to any clerk or maidIt took a week, and when the task was completed the lot had been reduced to one trunkful.—Chicago Tribune.
Mrs. Louise Parsons Hopkins.
Mrs. Louise Parsons Hopkins has just died at her home in Newbury port, Mass. Mrs. Hopkins was well known as a teacher and lecturer. In 1887 she was elected supervisor of schools in Boston, and held that position until March, 1894, when failing health compelled her to resign. She was born in Newburyport and during her early life taught in various schools of that city. Afterward she was professor of English literature in Swain Free academy, New Bedford. Mrs. Hopkins was the author of several valuable educational works, indorsed by President Mark Hopkins of Williams college, and Rev. A. P. Peabody, D. D. of Harvard. Her sound judgment, executive ability and personal devotion to educational interests were, during many years, of the greatest value. She leaves a husband, two sons and three daughters.
The Woman's Translation.
We mention with pleasure that the woman's translation, as engineered by Mrs. Stanton, will change the harsh old word spelled h-e-1-1, into h-a-d-e-s, which will make a good rhyme with ladies. That is a substantial gain for women. We expect some change in the genesis of woman, corresponding to the understanding of a little girl who came home from a Danville Sunday school not long since and said: "Oh, mamma, I know how woman was made. Miss Joy told us all about it today." The fond mother said, "Well, darling, how was she made?" The child eagerly replied, "Why, God hypnotized Adam, and while he slept God took out all Adam's brains and made a woman of them. Had Miss Joy gotten some advanced sheets from Mrs. Stanton's new Bible?—Danville (Ills.) News.
The Des Moines Election.
Women voted in good numbers at the recent school elections in several districts of Des Moines. The News of that city says: "North Des Moines women came to the front in great style. The polling place was the most interesting of any such place in Des Moines in years. There was no smoking in the room and flags and bunting decorations made the occasion seem the more patriotic. Tho vote was a very large one. In

A Luncheon Dessert.
Frozen bananas are very nice served as a sweet course at a luncheon in the place of ices or ice cream. Get the best bananas you can find with the skins as perfect as possible. Peel one section— that is, turn it back carefully without separating from the rest of the skin, and take out the fruit. Mash the pulp, and to each cupful of it add a pint of whipped cream and sugar to taste. Fill the banana skins with the mixture, shaping it as much like the fruit as possible. Cover so that tho skins will not appear to be broken, and pack in an ice cream can. Make a freezing mixture of salt and ice as for ice cream, and let them stand from two to three hours. If you choose the pulp may be colored with strawberry juice, but must not be thinned too much or there will be trouble in packing the fruit.
Boston Working Girls' Club. ..
Nearly 1,600 working girls in and around Boston are banded together in club life, and once a year they have a reunion. On last May day evening many of them gathered in Parker Memorial. Miss O. M. E. Rowe presided in the absence of the president, Miss Edith Howes. Most satisfactory reports were presented of the year's work, and stirring words were spoken by Dr. George A. Gordon, •^ho called the working girl, as Emerson did Carlyle, "a trip hammer with an .iSSolian attachment.'' His address was eloquent and encouraging. The girls sang, friends furnished instrumental music, and there were coffee and cakes in the parlors.
Bloomers.
There is nothing sofearful as "bloomers. The most sylphlike creature looks like a collapsed balloon in them, and nothing on earth could make them dignified. Horrid they are, and horrid they will remain. They do not look mannish, because no man living, except a zouave, ever put on such abominations. They are simply grotesque. The only thing left for bicycling woman to do is to invont as inoffensive a skirt as possible, and make up her mind that she will always have that handicap. She must put np with a mitigated nuisance, that's all. —•Chicago Herald. a
CROP REPORT.
Returns Made to the Weather Bureau For llie Week Ending June 24, WASHINGTON,
June
26.—The
weather
bureau in its report of crop conditions for the week ending June
24
says:
The past week has been generally favorable though somewhat too cool in the Dakotas and Minnesota for some crops, especially corn, -while excessive rains have proved injurious over the central and western portions of the cotton region.
Drouth has been relieved over the greater part of the Ohio valley, but continues in central Wisconsin, southern Michigan and in portions of Tennessee, Pennsylvania and New York.
Harvesting of winter wheat has continued and is now general over the northern portion of the wheat belt and is nearing completion in the southern portion. Threshing has begun in Illinois and Tennessee.
The weather for the past week has proved favorable for spring wheat, sustaining the previously reported excellent condition of this crop, which is now beginning to head.
Corn has made good growth during the week, and except in the Dakotas and Minnesota, where it is reported backward, the general condition is excellent. The crop has been largely laid by in the southern states, and in Kansas is beginning to tassel and silk.
Cotton has been injured by heavy rains in the central ana western portions of the cotton region, and in Texas and Louisiana the crop is reported very grassy. It is reported as fruiting well in Mississippi and as in h.^roved condition in eastern Alabama, Arkansas and North Carolina. Florida and Oklahoma report the crop in excellent condition.
The oats harvest has begun in the southern states and the reports as to the crop are generally favorable. In Iowa the largest crop ever harvested in that state is promised.
Tobacco planting is about completed, and in Ohio, where the plants were last week reported dying, the recent rains have proved of great benefit.
A heavy u-ost occurred in Utah on the
8th,
causing considerable damage.

WORSE THAN POVERTY.
Poor Blood and JSTerves out of: Order —Take Paine's Celery Compound.
--Ct i"'-
Among all the structures thatjmake up the human body, the nerves have been until recently the least understood.
The role of the nerves in the digestion and assimilation of food is a highly important one. The question whether the food shall nourish or become a mere load upon the system is a question of nerve forc8.
Neglect to satisfy the demands made by the nervous system carries heavy penalties. When this nervous force is exhausted the disgestive processes are obstructed, the body is weakened and pains of neuralgia, indigestion, rheumatism, invade its parts. During repose the nerves and great nerve centers feed upon the nutritive matarial that is stored in the blood aud tissues. It is when this supply of nourishment is prompt and abundant that the nerveus system is able to recuperate, but when the system has become too tired to appropriate sufficient nourishment and the nerves too shaky to get the the rest they need, that best of all blood purifiers, nerve foods, and nerve regulators, Paine's celery compound, should be given at once.
We invite all the citizens of Hancock and adjoing counties to call in and inspect our new store. •,

ceuters do not permit ?ufTi ient sleep, nervous prostration, lassitude and desponency are sure t© follo.v. Paine's celery compound guards against all this by promptly feeding the exhausted nerves and making the blood pure, abundant, and nourishing. It cures nauraglia, rheumatism, all forms of nervous weaknees, despondency, skin diseiae, and affections cf the heart, liver aud kidneys. It sends pure, vitalized blood to every organ,and thus makes people well. Paine's celery compound has found its way originally through prescreptions by physicians, into every city and smallest village in the country.
It would be very difficult to find a man or women of mature age who has not either been helped by this remarkable remedy or has heard of its marvelous prop erties at firsthand from some enthsiastic friends or relative. Paine's celery compound is the only great popular remedy that physicans of every school prescribe for disorders of the blood and nerves.
Say Mrs. Kate Manuel. 216J4 3rd ave., Minneapolis, whose picture is above: "I have been greatly benefited by Paine's celery compouud. I have taken six bottles of the wonderful remedy, and recommend it to all who are afTlcted as I was For years I have suffered from indigestion, and know not how to give due thanks for the relief that I have received while taking Paine's celery compound. My son-in-law has taken two bottles for similar trouble and it has made him will.
