To the Editor of the Dispatch:
On the eastern side of the river
Argos, in the land of Thela, is a beautiful
valley where everything is
pleasant and lovely. All the herbage
has the appearance of happiness.
The grass is beautiful and green, the
trees, with their tender leaves, are
tossed to and fro by the gentle
breeze; the flowers are beautiful and
gay. They perfume the atmosphere
with a perfume that is very lovely
and sweet. There are many weeping
willows there, as well as other
beautiful trees which spread their
shady bowers over that pleasant val1

for no pestilence has ever overshadowed
that place. The beast of
the forest are not wild or ferocious,
but gentle and obedient. If you
call them thev* will come to }'ou and
let you pet thorn as much as you wish.
Then they will walk proudly away,
jn such a manner as to show you that
they thank you for your kindness.

happy. They have everything tbev
want. There are no ravenous beast
there for them to fear, no floods nor
famines, and no other nations to
overpower them. They live at peace.
Every man, woman and child does
their duty. None of them are at
enmity with each other. No one
gets angry with his neighbor. Even
the children do not get cross at one
another. All is love, gentleness and
happiness.

glorious moment for Crocket. "Winking
at the conductor, he politely
offered to surrender to her his berth,
provided she had no objections to
sleep with his "little boy." Of course
she had none. She had "raised seven,
and was the grandmother of as many
more." She thanked him kindly,
pulled off her shoes and other fixing',
and "piled in." The doctor was
sleeping soundly, but before day ho
became quite restless. The old
lady very motherly patted him on
the head, saying, "Lay still, sonny,
your papa will soon be here; go to
sleep, you precious," and other similar
epithets, which the doctor, as
soon as he became fully awake knew
did not emanate from his friend, the
Colonel. Realizing his position, he
bounded over the old lady and made
tracks for the rear end of the car.
She screamed, and in a moment
everybody was up, thinking, perhaps,!
that something had happened. The
joke was explained, the passengers
laughed, Crocket was forced to beat
a hasty retreat, in order to keep
clear of the clutches of the old
woman, while Dr. Finley sheepishly
stole into the forward car, and did
not show himself again until the
train reached Cincinnati.

A lady who has just returned to
her native land for a brief rest, after
twenty years of missionary work in
China, says: "I never see women in
America paying out money for useless
articles of adornment without an impulse
to cry out, 'don't, don't.' Do

there is so pressing that many of the
missionaries themselves, out of the
small salaries they receive, support
one, two or three scholars. I know
several missionaries who pay the en

Is it any wonder that this lady,
coming back to this country where
we live lavishly, and spend money
lavishly for trifles that we could very
well do without, feels like laising a
voice in protest? Just think heathen

Deafness Cannot 'oo Cnxed
by local applications, as they cannot j ]
reach the diseased portion of the ear. j *
There is only one way to cure Deaf- i ;
ness, and that is by constitutional j
remedies. Deafness is caused by an !
infla.rnpd condition of the mUCOUS I
lining' of the Eustachian Tube. J
When this tube gets inflamed you j
have a rumbling sound or imperfect !
hearing, and when it is entirely closed j
Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal 1
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused
by catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall s Catarrh Dure. Send lor circulars,

ali these, to be sure, in their modern
modifications and relieved by the
artistic touch of our contemporary
taste. A great freedom of selection
is, consequently, afforded to every
lady, for no single leading style will
prevent her from following her natu

past origin of the varied Mode of our
coming season, and iheir development
into their present adaptations,
no surer guides could be obtained
than the McDowell Fashion Journals.
"Paris Album o? Fashion" and "La
Mode de Paris" are great favorites
and sell, each, for 35 cents a copy, or
S3.50 a year. "La Couturiere" has a
wide success, being 30 cents a copy,
or $3.00 a year. "La Mode" is the
best Home Fashion Journal, costing
only 15 cents a copy, or $i.ou per
annum. They are supplied by newsdealers,
or by applying directly to
the house, at No.4 West 14th Street,
New York City.
