AN ELEGY.
{Written at the foot of a Georgia Soldier's
grave, Confederate Section, "Cave Hill"
Cemetery, Louisville, Kentucky, October 2d,
1882, by J. Howard Carpenter, and dedicated
to Mrs. John D. Andrews, of Orangeburg, S.
How calm and still; bow sacred and serene;
I am a stranger here, and yet 1 feel
As tho* it were my privilege to kneel
And drop one tear upon the turfy green I
'Call it not weakness, friend, nor lightly
speak?
1 have a thousand brothers lying here;
Each one of whom knew bow to shed a tear,
And lift an arm to shield the poor and
weak.
How many bopes once bright as noonday
* sun,
Lie here enshrouded in eternal night j
Hid, as ia pity from the cold world's sight,
Yet no less honored if they are undone!
Let him who has no country careless seem ;
And pass these humble stones all heedless by;
But, as a Georgian. I would rest my eye
On each green mound a while, and muse and
dream.
Dream of the time, when thro' the dark'ning
cloud,
The son of hope threw its inspiring ray;
And cheered the souls of those who wore the
grey,
To march thro* blood and death to vict'ries
proud.
Dream of the time when that bright sun had
sei,
And not a star came out to lend its light;
And shadows settled into gloomy night,
And teurs, like rain, our Southern country
wet.
Here, side by side, like when in war tbey
stood.
The sons of Georgia and Virginia sleep ;
Alike for them I would in sorrow weep?
Jty cause was theirs; for it they shed their
blood.
And there a Texan lies, who oft was tried,
And ne'er fonnd wanting in the holy strife,
Close by the side of one who gave his life.
For bis "Palmetto" State, the Southron's
pride.
A id sweetly sleeps beneath that rose bush
wild
A yomb of seventeen. He took the stand
Of "volunteer" for bis own ''Flower Land"
And there be died?0 wondrous, noble child !
Nor would I pass a single headstone by
Which bears the sacred letters "C. S. A.,"
Without reverting to a by gone day
That blessed the asbes which beneath it lie.
Thero is no State who linked ber fate to ours,
But here may find the dost of some brave son,
j Who lost his cause, bis life, bat glory won,
i- Beneath these erergreens and lovely flow rs.
In holy quietude then let them sleep,
Like trusting infants on a mother's breast;
'Till merging into that eternal rest,
They wake to songs divine?no more to
weep.
An April-Fool.
The last days of March had come,
and all the boys of Madison were ful
ly awake to the fact that skating for
that season would soon be over. Ev
ery moment that could be snatched
from school or home duties was spent
on some little pond about the town.
Bat March was almost gone and al
ready some of the skating places were
spoiled, and the milder weather
threatened to ruin the rest.
Friday afternoon, March 31, Char
ley Sawyer,, with a few comrades I
hurried to Bramble's pond as soon as
school was out, but alas! the ice was
broken up. A short consultation was J
held and it was decided to go over to j
Settles' pond, a half mile farther ft om !
the village. j
"Don't believe I'll go," said Char-1
ley, who had taken no part in the!
discussion.
"Oh, come along," said one.
"Why not?" asked another.
"1 don't care to go. It's a long j
walk. 'Twont pay."
He might have added also that he
hoped a little to do an errand for
some one before night to earn, may i
be, a nickel. He had been trying j
liard to save money enough to buy a j
"book. The little things he could find
to do to earn anything often "took up j
time he would have liked to have
spent in play, but he never thought i
of giving up. He took what they J
called the "short cut" going home, !
passing on his way a tiny house where j
lived Mr. Watson and his daughter, j
Jrfiss Watson tapped on the wiudow i
and beckoned Charley to come in.!
It wasn't a very cheerful scene that i
ipo; his eyes as he entered. !
Mr. Watson, a very old and feeble I
?nao, sat in a big chair wrapped in an
old comfortable. His daughter, a'
middle-aged woman, hobbled forward ;
painfully to offer a chair. A very
small fire burning in the cooking- j
stove made the room look very cheer- j
less, and the boy wondered how it!
coaid keep them watm.
"I've been sick with the rhcuma- j
tisra," said Miss. Watson, "and I j
am so lame T can hardly walk."
"We're out of potatoes," she ad- j
ded, "and I can't go to the store for j
any, bat I thought when I saw you j
comin' may be you'd ask Mr. Mapbet j
to send us a small measure by some j
one that's comin' this way."
Miss Watson took a piece of mon-;
ey from a small, lean purse as she I
spoke.
"Yes," said Charley, "I am going \
there to-night."
"I'll be obliged to you if you will, i
We've got out of most things this!
cold spell. It's lasted so long."
"I think the Watsons must be real j
poor," said Charley to his mother on I
reaching home.
"Why/ were you there?" asked I
the mother.
Charley told her about the errand
be was to do for Miss Watson.
"They had such a little fire," he j
added; "it's cold enough yet for a!
good fire, I think."
"Yes, I expect they are poor. If!
Miss Wat3on has had the rhcuma- j
tism, she hasn't been able to go out I
to do anything, likely."
Mr. Maphet laughed a little when j
Charley gave him the small order.
"Better keep the money. I don't j
know when I'll have a chance to send |
'em. 1 don't think my customers go j
that way much. Road's too rough." !
Charley went home wondering]
what he had best do about it He |
remembered Miss Watson had said I
they were "out of most things." |
Maybe they'd starve if they did not j
*et the potatoes soon, and then a j
?mall measure of potatoes wouldn't I
: *st long. How nice it would be to j
ake her a bushel instead, but he had
i.9 money to pay for them Yes, j
iere was his money tu the box up- ?
t-ait4?, bat that he meant to save for :
ihe book. He could not expect fath-,
*r or mother to belp, for they were j
T Irl
working hard to pay for their home.
If he spriit any money now, it would
take him so much longer to earn
enough, lie had just two dollars and j
seventy-live cents, ana it would take j
three dollars to buy the "Young!
Folks Cyclopedia," the book he want
ed. lie had waited for it so long, j
too. lie wished he had it already. J
It told about nearly everything. It
would be something ',o read every j
evening when it was cold. And how !
he'd hunt up answers to some of the
things the teachers asked about some
times. Then the little house and its
poor forlorn room came up before
him, and after a while the generous
spirit conquered.
?'I ought to go down there anyway
I to take the money back if I didn't
get any potatoes, so I might as well
buy some to take along. I'll take a
] bushel, for they live so far from every
body maybe they'd starve before any
body else happened to go by."
Early next morning lie went to Mr.
I Maphet's, bought the potatoes, put
j them on his express, aud started for
tl e lonely little house at the edge of
the woods. lie could not make up
his mind as to the best way of giving
them to Miss Watson, lie was too
bashful to go in and say he had
brought some potatoes when she had
not sent for so many. At last he
j stopped to think. Suddenly he re
membered something and began to
fumble in his pockets. In one, among
other treasures, he found a piece of
dingy, white paper full of creases,
and in another a very small stub of a
pencil. With some trouble he wrote
in his large school-boy hand, "Miss
Libbie Watson, April-fool."
"It is an April-fool 'cause she want
ed a dime's worth and here's a bush
el."
He lucked the corner of I lie paper
under the string that tied the bag,
and, as he was near the house, shov
el his express in a fence corner, took
up the potatoes and put them down
carefully on the step, knocked and
then ran away* in as much of a hurry
as if he had been a naughty boy try
ing to play a trick on some one.
Miss Watson caught sight of him as
he hurried down the road with his
noisy little express. That day the
Watsons had enough to eat. It was
the first time in many days.
Before Charley reached home a la
dy engaged him to go over to the sta
| tion tor packages she had left there
the day before, for which he received
a dime. Later in the day another
errand took him to the store, and
while there Mr. Maphet engaged
him for every Saturday to do errands
j for him at twenty-five cents a day.
j So many people needed Charley's
j help in the next few weeks that the
? little savings soon amounted to three
j dollars, and the longed-for book was
bought.
"Mother," said Charley one day
j wh:le looking at his treasure. "I
j think I've been real lucky lately 'bout
i earning money. I thought a few
I times I'd never get enough to buv
lit."
"I was at Mrs. Maphet's today,'''
said the mother. "Libbie Watson
is there helping. She's better of the
rheumatism She was telling about
an April-fool she had last month."
Charley's face turned very red.
She said it was the best April-fool
anybody ever played. The dime she
gave you was the last cent she had.
Libbie said she really believed they
would have suffered if they hadn't
had those potatoes. -
"How did you happen to think of
taking them ?"
"Oh, I don't know. They looked i
so uncomfortable there. She said
they were out of things, and I knew
not many people went by there in
bad weather, and then she was loo
lame to walk much "
"You said just now," returned the
mother, "that you had been lucky
lately, but I think God remembered j
you to get what you have been try- j
ing for."
"It wasn't easy to do, mother." j
said Charley, soberly "but I'm so !
glad I wasn't selfish "
The following figures are based on I
the latest census reports and Govern- j

by them in the following proportions

Disease is an effect, not a cause. Its origin
is within : its manifestations without. Hence,
to cure the the disease the cause must be re
moved, ?nd in no oilier way can a cute ever
be effected. WARNER'S SAFE KIDNEY
AND LIVER CURE is established on just
this principle. It realizes that
95 Per Cent,
of all diseases arise front deranged kidneys
and liver, ;;;id it strikes at once at the rout of
the difficulty. The elements of which it is
composed act directly upon these great organs,
both as a Food and restorer, and, by placing
them in a healthy condition, drive disease
and pain f rom the system.
For the innumerable troubles caused by un
healthy Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs;
for the distiessing Disorders of Women ; for
Miliaria, and For physical derangements gen
erally, this great remedy has uo equal. De

poor Clifford Pyncheou, who had been un

In a letter to Messrs. IJiscox k Co^ Mr. L.

have suffered untold misery from childhood
from chronic disease ot the bowels and diar

in PARKER'S TONIC a complete specific,
preventive and cure. As your invaluable
medicine, which did for me what nothing
else could do, is entitled to the credit of my

gratefully acknowledge the fact."
Mr. E.S Wei's, who needs no introduction
