Any man who can afford to pay rent can afford to buy a home if he will take advantage of the Peoples B. & L. Plan and he can buy just as good a home as he can rent. The only difference is he buys for himself instead of his landlord. Start today by taking stock and filing your application. R. M. WILKINS, Prest. R. S. LIPSCOMB, Trees. J. F. GARRETT, V.-Prest. H.

Take—take— my dear John—Oh my heart will burst and I shall die!’’ she uttered, almost overwhelmed with hep emo tions, as she again burled her face In Mistress Ramsay s lap—“I cannot speak!” A silence of inexpressible agony prevailed for some moments. This was at length Interrupted by the up rising of the full, clear, and Arm voice of Allen Musgrove, who now broke forth from the opposite side of a room where he had kneeeled be fore a chair, in an earnest and Im pressive supplication to the Deity, urged with all that eloquence which naturally flows from deeply-excltedl feeling. From the solemnity of the occasion, as well as from the habi tually religious temper of the family assembled in the little cabin, the words of the prayer fell upon the hearts of those present with a singu larly welcome effect, and. for the mo ment. brought tranquillity to their feelings. When the prayer was ended, the grief of the mourners rolled back in Its former flood, and burst from Mary Musgrove in the most heart rending bitterness. Paroxysm follow ed paroxysm with fearful violence, and these outbreaks were responded to by the mother with scarcely less intensity. All attempts at consola tion, on the part of the men, were unavailing; and it was apparent that nothing remained hut to let the tide of anguish take it own course. It was now some time after night fall, when Butler and Drummond beckoned Allen Musgrove to leave the room. They retired into the open air in front of the house, where they were immediately joined by David Ramsay. Here Butler communicated to them the necessity of making Im mediate arrangements for thir re turn to the woodman’s cottage, and for the burial of the deceased troop er. His advice wag adopted, and it was resolved that Musgrove and Ram say should accompany the other two to the spot. Before the consultation was closed, Andy had come into the group, and he was now directed, with all haste, to throw a saddle upon his father’s horse. ‘‘You, Andrew, my son,” said David Ramsay, “will stay at home and com fort your poor mother, and Mary. Speak to them, boy. and persuade them to give up their useless lamen tations. It is the will of God. and we ought not to murmur at It.” “The burning, father,” replied the boy, with a sorrowful earnestness, “and the fighting, and the frights we have had, was all nothing to this. I never felt before how terrible the war w’as.” Andy had now gone to equip the horse, and the men returned to the inside of the cabin, where they sat in profound silence. Butler, at length, rose from the door-sill where he had taken his seat, and crossing the room, took a position by the bed on which Mary Musgrove had thrown herself, and where she now lay ut tering faint and half-smothered moans. ‘‘I have a remembrance for you,” he said stooping down and speaking scarce above a whisper in the maid en’s ear; ‘T promised to deliver it in to your hand. God knows with what pain I perform my office! John en joined upon me to give you this,” he continued, as he presented to her the little copy of the Testament, “and to say to you that his last thoughts were given to you and his mother. He loved you, Mary, better than he loved any living creature in this world.” “He did, he did,’’ sobbed forth the girl; “and I loved him far above family, friends, kinsfolk and all—I wish I were dead by his side,” “Take the book,” said Butler, hard ly able to articulate. “God for ever bless you,” he added, after a pause of weeping, “and bring you comfort! I have promised John Ramsay, that neither you, nor any of his family, shall ever want the service of a friend, while I have life or means to render it. Before heaven, that piqpge shall be redeemed! Farewell, fare well! God bless you!” As Butler uttered these words he grasped the maiden’s hand and press ed it fervently to his lips; then turn ing to the mother, he addressed some phrase of comfort to her, and hastily left the room. Scarcely a sound was heard from any one, except the low sobbing of the exhausted weepers, and tbp almost convulsive kisses which Mary imprinted upon the little book that Butler had put into her hand. Musgrove, Ramsay, and the wood man, retired from the apartment at the same moment; and the horses being ready at the door, the retreat ing beat of the hoofs upon the turf gave notice to the in-dwellere that the four men had set forward on their journey.

The liniments did no gooo and I took to blood medicines but they did not help me. I took a long trip in hopes that the change of climate might help me.
