rs HOcuvn tbe Dears. 1 wv here leafy trees deep shadows throw, And shelter from the noon-day sun, A veteran of the long ago Sits musing, as the minutes flow, On battles lost and victories won Long years ago. He looks far back adown the years, In fancy sees the days of yore, And murmurs froth the long-past hears— The din of strife, the cries, the cheers — Ah how old times return once more, After long years! But now for him life m?ans but rest; And though he still looks back on strife With something of a lingering zest, Yet like a barque on ocean’s breast ; Safe anchored, sq he feels that life Indeed is rest. And as the lengthening shadows fall, Telling that eventide is nigh— That mystic time when thoughts* enthrall > ;’ . He muses on the end of all, And trustful waifs his summoning Cry — The trumpet call. For each of us the time mustVbe When tee look back adown the years, And all bur old time conflicts sei!, Past happiness and misery, The receod of our hopes and fears — . . , • Such time must be. How huppy then if, as we look, A dreamy sense of quiet rest Steals over us, and as a brook That babbles on through quiet nook, . Lise npples with unruffled breast , Where’er we look. And when the shadows gather round That guard the valley all must tread, How well if we the gate have found, And trustful hear the trumpet sound, And know that tnough the way we dread, ■ . We’re homeward bound. Home News Notes. Optical Goods kt Veits. Milo Rookstool was in Goshen Saturday on business. _ Frank Bushong was in Leesburg 'on business Saturday.

Smith, of the Union, secretary. The convention was opened with an address by the chairman on county affairs, in which he claimed that the records proved that, two years ago, when the c fficers were turned over to tha-presen-t officials, the county was in debt $53,000 or thereabout, and that since then this debt had been paid, and promised, that, if present policies be continued, the county tax rate would be materially lowered.

On the fourth ballot Mr. Myers, having received something over 400 votes, (364 be necessary for a choice) was declared nominated; ~ The democrats of the county having for years contended for minority party representation on the board of county commissioners, and having frequently declared itself to be in favor of a law providing the same in all counties of the state, the central cjmmittee advised that no nomination for commissioner for the middle district be made, and the convention accepted the recommendation. Peter Clemer was nominated for commissioner of the southern district, and C. R. Zimmerman, undertaker, of Leesburg, was named for coroner. , The convention closed with a half hour’s speech from Air.
