A Gentle Word ig Never Lost.
uy,". K 8
A gentle word is nevor loBt, ./Xty-,i
Ohl nover then refuse one; V v
It ohoerB tho heart when sorrow-tossed,
And Inila tho earea that bruise ot" -
It scatters sunshino o'er our way
And turns our thoma to roses;
lt nhangos weary night to day,
And hopo and love discloses.
A gout lo word is nover lost
Thy fallon brother needs it:
How vhiy said! how small tho cost I
With peace and oemfort apood it;
Thon drive the shadow from thy ohcek,
A smile can well replace it;
Our voice is music, wnon we speak.
With gent?o words to graco it.

WASTED AT TUE CROSS ROAOS.
I was in a hurry to reach home.
No wonder, for it was tho wildest
night I had ever known in all my
life, and the country over which I
took my way aa bad as country roads
in general. Consequently I was
.walking at a groat rate, with tho
collar ?? my rough coat over my ears,
anda comforter tied over my soft hat
and under my chin, to keepit on and
protect my ears, when suddenly a
man stood full in my path, nnd
caught me by tho arm.
V'Hullo 1" said he, "You're just in
time; you aro wanted at the cross
roads to-nightl"
The voice was the voice of a ruf?
fian.
I fancied myself attacked by a
highwayman. I stood quito still,
and strove to show him by my man?
ner that I was able to protect myself.
"What the deuce am I wanted at
the cross roads for?" said I. "Unless
I choose, it will be avery hard matter
to get me there?"
But instead of producing a pistol
and demanding my money or my
life, the man answered in an altered
tone.
"Beg pardon, I mado a mistake.
I thought it was my brother, and I
-wanted to frighten him. Bad night,
sir."
"Very," said L
"You don't know the time, sir?"
lie asked.
"It was seven when I left the train
at Li-," I said.
'.Thank ye, sir," said the man.
"Good night."
"Good night," said L
If his object had boon robbery,
probably he had decided from my
rough appearance that I was too poor
a man to be worth the trouble. But
after all, I thought probably be
spoke the truth. A man may have
such a voioe without being a high?
wayman, no doubt. So I went home?
ward, and soon found myself under
shelter, and partaking of a warm and
savory supper.
My mother was there and my bro
(. ther Ben. Ben. was a great strap
?- ping fellow, who could beat any other
W. boy of his age for miles around, if it
W came to wrestling or boxing, and as
good-humored a boy as ever lived; a
boy always to mother and I, though
he had exercisod his right to voto
already in one Presidential election.
When supper was over, and we had
chatted for an hour, we went up
stairs together. The moment Ben.'s
head touched the pillow, he always
went to sleep. That night, I follow?
er1 his example. But I did not sleep
long without a dream-a dream in
which I felt a rough grip on my arm,
and was aroused by a cry in my ears.
"Wake upi You are wanted at tho
cross roads."
It was so real, so palpable, that
when I started-broad awake, I actual?
ly believed that somo one was in tho
room; the man who intended robbery
or violence. But when I had arisen,
and lit my lamp, tho room was empty,
except myself and Ben., who lay
snoring on his pillow.
I went to the door; it was lockod.
I went to the window; the rush of
rain against the panos was all I heard.
I- even went acrrfss the passage to my
mother's room. Sho was awake;
thora had been no unusual sound, sho
was sure.
Only a dream boru of my meeting
tho strango man in the road, I felt,
had awakened me. I weht to bed
and foll asleep again. Again I was
awakened by the .same words, this
time shrieked in my ear by an un?
earthly voice.
"Wake up, wake up. You aro
wanted at the cross roads."
I was on my feet once moro, and
caught Ben.'s hand as he came o vor
toward my bed.
"What ails yon?" ho cried.
* 'Nothing, ' ' said I. * 'Did you hear
a voice?"
"Yours," said Ben., "yolliugwoke
me up; you fairly frightened me."
"Ben.," said I, "wait till I light a
lamp; I heard another voice. There
must be some ono in the house or
outside."
So I again lit the lamp, but wo
searched in vain.
"Nightmare," said Ben., when I
told him my story.
"Ben.," said I, "what is there at
the cross roads.
"A house," said Ben. He lived in
the neighborhood a long while, and
I not long.
"On? little house, beside two oak
trees and a fence. An old mau livos
there-a rich man, and a bit of a
miser, they say. His grand-daughter
keeps house for him."
"Ben., that fellow may have meant
harm to them. I may be wanted at
tho cross roads. "
"Brother," said Ben., "go to
sleep. You had a nightmare," and
??kt ?
Ben. plunged in between the blan?
kets, and was snoring again.
I afoo, in ten minutes, slept ns
soundly as before, but tho awakening
soon came again.
I oponed nay evns^ to a girl
standing at the" foot of my bed. A
giri in 'white robes, with golden hair
all about her shoulders, who wrung
her bauds and cried: .'Oh, wake up,
you are wanted at the cross roads."
This time I started out of bed,
bathed in a cold perspiration. I
trembled like a leaf. I had no doubt
that I had rccoived supernatural
warning.
.'Ben.," I cried, "Ben., for tho
third time I have been told that I am
wanted at tho cross roads, and I nm
going."
And I begun to dross myself r.s
speedily as possible, listening the
while to tho storm raging wilder nnd
wilder than at any"other period since
its commeucetneui.
Ben. remonstrated with me in vain.
At Inst, ho also began to huddle on
bis clothes.
"If you have gone mad, I must, go
with you and take care of you," he
said.
"But fancy another man, going
out in a storm like this to tho cross
roads, because a nightmare caused
him to do so, and what would you
think of him?"
I said nothing. All I could havo
answered would have been :
"I am compelled to go; I must go.
I dare not refuse, whatever may be
thought of me?"
In ten minutes we were splashing
through the mud and rain along the
rood. It was perfectly dark; now
and then a blazed red Btar in the dis?
tance told us that a lamp was beam?
ing through the rain in some cottage
window, but otherwiso wo would not
have been conscious of our proximi?
ty to any habitation whatever. At
lost, nearing tho spot where tho road
from S-crosses the road to P-,
wo were indeed in as solitary a place
as can be imagined.
The house, which abutted on tho
very angle of the roads, called in
familiar parlauco tho Cross Roads,
was the only one for somo distance
in either direction, and certainly on
such a night we were not likely to
moot many travelers.
All was quiet us the grave. We
stood quite still. In a moment, Ben.
broke out in ono of his wildest
laughs.
"Well," ho said, "how now?"
Will you go home now, and have
another nightmare?"
But hardly had tho words escaped
his lips, when a shriek broko on the
air, and a woman's voice, plainly com?
ing from the interior of tho cottage, I
cried :
"Help! help! help!"
"Ben.," said I, "we are wanted at
the cross roads," and then under?
standing each other, without moro
words wo made our way to tho win?
dow, through which a light shone.
A muslin curtaiu draped tho panes,
but through it we saw an awful
sight.
An old mau lay on the floor, and
over him bout a ruffian, clutching
his throat, and holding a pistol to
his ear, while another man grasped
the shrieking girl by the arm-a girl
in a floating night dress-with such
long golden hair ns belonged to the
girl of my vipion. Not a moment
was to be wasted. Ben. flung his
weight against the slender lattice and
crushed it in, and wo had grappled
the ruffians before they knew whence
tho attack came, or how may foes
were upon them.
I do not intend to describo the
struggle; indeed, I could not, if I
would. But we were strong men
aud inspired by tho cries of the help?
less old man and tho terrified girl,
we soon had one of the villains bouud
and the other lying prostrate on the
floor.
Then Ben. started for assistance,
and, before morning, both were in
jail. Ben. admitted, as wo shook
each other by tho hand, that "wo
were wanted ut the cross roads."
Tho old man was not a miser, but
bo had saved somo few thousand
dollars for his old age, and living
moro plainly than ho need have done,
bad given rise to tho rumor, and so
brought tho burglars to tho cross
roads in the hope of booty.
The girl, a beautiful creature of
seventeen, was his grand-daughter,
and as no story is acceptable to the
lady readers without a flavor of ro?
mance, I will tell them, that sho be?
came in after years, not my wife, but
the wifo of my darling brother Ben.

The lifo of tho fiesh is pnre blood. Upon

free front disease. The Palo and Shrunken
Forma, Yellow Faces, Weak Stomachs,
Diseased Livers, Crippled Rhcunii 'its,
Nervous Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Vic?
tims of Headache, so common in this
country, is owing entirely to tho humors
of thc blood. Very many other diseases
may bo traced to bad blood, Scrofula or
King's Evil, Erysipelas, Exanthema or
Elevure, a Rash or Eruption on females,
Blotches, Tetter, Goitre or Swelled Neck,
Syphilis and Syphilitic Sores, Simmons
Ulcers, Ac. These cannot bo cured with?
out purifying tho blood. Now aa to tho
remedy. There is no other blood purifier
that will accomplish euch positive and ex?
traordinary cures as Heinitsh's Queen's
Delight. Yon may tako a barrel of extract
Sarsaparilla, and atill you will not bo
cured; and. aa a proof of it, look around
and you will observe tho country, through?
out ito length and breadth, is lloodcd with
compound Sarsaparillas, extracts and
syrups, claiming to bo blood purifiers, and
yet wo aoo to-day more ovidonco of Im?
purity of tho blood than evor. Why ia
this ? Simply bocauso theso oxtracta and
Sarsaparillas aro worthless medicines.
Ask for Heinitsh's Queon'a Delight. Thia
is not tho Extract of Stellingia or Queen's
Delight, nor is it a Compound Syrup of
Quoen's Delight, or Sarsaparilla and
Queen's Delight, but simply Heinitsh's
