THE CLERK'S BONANZA.
•Twas at the Hotel Scdjtewlck,
Down'by the rolliug sen,
I Tliat a wondrous piece of fortune
Last summer came to me.
I was the weary night clerk,
•. But in the (lay, you see,
I was quartered as a truest
Of very high degree.
I bad trenienduous collars,
Kid gloves and shiny tile,
I smoked the choicest cigarettes
And wore a languid smile.
The heiress, Delia Snlggins,
(Her age WHS thirty-three)
I beaued around till she become
Completely mashed on me.
I wrote her gushing verses,
I rqueezed her clammy hand,
I called her all the loving names
I had at my command.
Till, to cut this simple story,
I married the fair maid
And had afar from lovely time
While at the beach we stayed.
She had a temper like a fiend
(But life must have its ills)
I'm running things in Pumpkinville,
Aud Delia pars the bills.
—C. Surteigh, in Detroit Free Pres*.
Reunited at Last.
The blno waters of Shepscot rippled
and flashed in the August sunshine as
it swept on, winding in and out among
the scattered islands till it reached the
broader expause beyond. On one of
these islands, and hardly more than a
stone's throw from the river, stood an
old square house.
On this sultry August afternoon as
the day wore on' the sky darkened, dis
tant thunders sounded warniuglv now
and then, till with the twilight, the
breeze, grown to a sudden gale, dashed
the large rain drops against the win
dows of the old house which Mrs. Mar
low was hurrying about to close.
"Well, I declare, father," she said,
coming downstairs quite out of breath,
"how it does rain! who'd thought it
when 'twas so pleasant this after
noon?"
Capt. Mnrlow rubbed the bald spot
on his head reflectively as lie returned,
"Does pour, that's a fact."
A little later a blinding flash, accom
panied bv a crash of thunder heavier
than any preceding, caused Mrs. Mar
low to start up from her chair.
"Mercy!" she exclaimed, pity any
poor creature that has to be out in
this."
The storm continued with little abate
ment. Just as one peal of thunder died
away an ind stinet sound readied the
ears of the two people in the long
kitchen. Tli".y regarded each other
questioningly for a moment then there
was a rattle of the doorlatch. Someone
outside were groping for it in the dark
ness.
The mnn started up and going to the
door threw ,t. wide open to the storm,
but he st« !'|u'd back as he did so, for
there on t't door stotie stood, a ligure
etranire to him. The next moment his
hospital it overcame every other feel
ing, ami reaching out he v.i d, "Who
ever ye are, come in."
Mrs. Mariow was by his side and
gazing in amazement at the slight,
white-robed figure. It was a youii"
girl they had never seen before. There
was a frightened, appeal ng look in the
brown eye. The ml and ra had
beaten upon her head tili the dark,
curling hair was drenched ami clinging
about her neck. Mis. Mai-low's moili^
erly arms stretched out instinctively.
"Poor child!" she sa'd, drawing her
into the room "why, father, she is wet
through and through."
It was qii te true. The water dripped
from the dainty white dress and made
little pools upon the floor. She wore
no wrap of any kind. As vet she had
not spoken, but stood looking wonder
inglv about the room.
"Where did you come from? Are
pou :i!one?" Mrs. Mariow asked, and
the girl answered with a shudder, "Yes,
I'm alone."
"Dear, dear, poor child! Let me get
vou something warm."
Capt. Mariow set about making a fire
in the cook stove, while his wife took
the stranger into the little bedroom.
"You're all beat out," the good woman
said pityingly "You'd better go rght
to bed." The girl made no remon
strance, but submitted quite passively
to whatever was proposed. She took
I he warm drink Mrs. Mariow brought
her. and when the woman went back to
the kitchen she said, "Ideclare, father,
the poor thing's completely beat out
she's asleep already."
Anxious days followed, while the
Btrangi-r tosi-ed in the delerium of fe
ver, and Mrs. Mariow cared for her as
tenderly as if she had been her own.
"Poor child." she said, tears coming
into her eyes as she spoke, "it ninkes
my heart a-he to think she is away
from all she loves."
There was no clew to the girl's form
erlife no one on the island knew any
thing about her, ana all inquiries else
where brought no knowledge. Mrs.
Mariow searched the girl's clothing
but only one word was found, and one
day she slipped a ring from the wasted
hand and looked for some inscription
there was only the word she had found
before, the name Kathleen.
The suft'erer spoke often, but though
Mrs. Mariow strove to catch any words
lhat might lead to the discovery of who
she was there was but little that waa
intelligible.
Sometimes she seemed to be wander
ing through some wood, and said that
the pine needles made a soft carpet
it others she fancied herself on the wa
ter, and said she was so tired drawing
against the stream. Once or twice she
spoke the name of Everett, but that
ivas all.
"Poor child!" sighed the good wo
man. "When she gets well she will
tell ns, and we will take her home."
But there were days when it seemed
that there was little "reason to expect
lier recovery, yet. the crisis passed and
the still lived. Very white and weak
the was, her brown eyes looking un
naturally large, then a"faint color come
into her face that grew rounded every
day. Mrs. Mariow forebore asking
any questions as yet. though she
wondered a little that Kathleen asked
tier none, but she was growing strong
er, she would speak by and by.
Yes she was growing stronger. Still
the doctor looked grave and continued
liis visits after she was able to walk
tbout.
But as time went on there was no
change. She answered to the name
Df Kathleen and called Captain and
Mrs. Mariow father and mother, as she
aeard them call each other. She seem
ed quite happy roaming about the
Eland, only when any mention was
inade of going on the water a troubl
ed look came into her face. "No,"
the always said, 'I would rather not,"
lo they did not urge her. She was
•ardly twenty, Mrs. Mariow thought.
of a slight, lithe figure and aa careless
ly graceful as a child. Her complexion
was of creamy, almost transparent
whiteness, the crimson showing only in
her cheeks and lips.
Fall, Winter and early Spring passed
uneventfully away then there came
time when the house was in an unusual
state of commotion and expectancy.
Capt. Mariow's son Robert was coming
home. He would be here soon now:
he had been in South America, and it
was more than a year ago that he hac
gone away. Mrs Mariow specula tec
as to how' bis coming would affect
Kathleen, who seemed as joyfully cagei
to prepare for him as she did herself.
But when he came the broad-shoulder
ed captain of the High-flyer was fai
more affected than was Kathleen.
It was Robert who iirs induced liet
to step into a boat. She seemed
ashamed of her fears, but her face was
very pale as they took the first sail
down the river together. As the time
went on she grew accustomed to the
water and came to enjoy it Many
were the sails the two took during the
long Summer afternoons. On one of
these as they rowed slow along toward
a cove bordering the father side of the
island, Robert said, looking off to the
wooded islands beyond, with theii
green branches reflected in the Shep
scot's clear water, "How still it is'
We might fancy ourselves the only peo
ple anvwhere about."
He let the oars rest and the boat
drifted slowly the lapping of the
waves was tlie only sound.
"Yes," Kathleen returned, "I was
foolish not to like the water."
"You like it now
"When I am with vou." The words
came so quickly, and she did not look
up, but sat as before, with one ham!
over the boat's side just touching the
water."
The young man leaned suddenly to
ward her. "Kathleen," he said, "stay
with me always. Come with me over
the water where I am going. I want
you—need you—can't you love mo
enough
The girl looked up at him with the
wondering look of a child. "Love
you," she said, "of course are you not
my brother."
"No, I don't want a sister's love.
Want a wife's.
The bright color that had been in the
girl's face until now died suddenly out,
a startled, troubled look came into the
brown eves looking up at him.
"Oh, Robert! I can't, I can't!"
He started more at her voicc than
her words and asked quickly, "Why
can't you?"
For a moment she seemed struggling
with herself, then with a despairing
face, she cried, "I don't know I can't
remember."
A few weeks later they were making
a call on some friends of Robert's on a
neighboring island an open piano
stood near where Kathleen was seat
ed, and as they were to go she went to
it, and struck a few notes. The others
turned in surprise they did not know
she played but without heeding them
she seated herself, and after a few un
certain touches her lingers ilew lightly
over the keys, bringing'out such melo
dy as its owner had never known how
to awaken. Robert and his friends
stood amazed, as one after another the
selections followed each other in rapid
succession. Suddenly the rl paused,
bowed her head on her hands and sob
bed aloud.
Something like a week after this a
stranger came across the big.rock and
made his way to the side door of the
old Mariow house. A young man with
clear-eut features and an unmistakably
well-bred air. There was an eager
look in the steel-blue eyes and a sup
pressed excitement in his manner,
when lie asked the gray-haired woman
at the door if she was Mrs. Mariow.
He introduced himself by a card on
which was the name Everett Moulton.
Then he entered, and made known
his call.
Kathleen came into the next room
while he was speaking. She heard the
voice and paused, the troubled look
coming into her face then she went
nearer and stood in ttie doorway. The
young man turned, and saw her as she
started toward him with a light break
ing into her face.
"Everett, she said, softly, "have you
come for me?"
"Yes. Kathleen."
And Mrs. Mariow, with tears in her
eyes, went out and left them alone.
Ere long the story became known,
A little more than a year back Kath
leen Bray, the daughter of a man of
supposed wealth, found herself, upon
his death, left penniless and alone. She
accepted for the summer the position
of pianist at a popular hotel, where she
met Everett Moulton. The acquaint
ance grew into something more than
friendship, but the Moultons were a
proud family and would not hear to
the only son's marrying a poor girl like
Kathleen.
She was treated coldly, unfeelingly
by them, till her sensitive nature was
stnng almost beyond endurance, and
late one afternoon, hardly thinking or
caring where she went, entered a ooat
moored near the shore and rowed aim
lessly up the river. The storm came
on, and weary, bewildered, ill, she
found her way at length to the old
Mariow homestead. The boat was
found down the river afterward with a
light wrap in it recognized as hers.
The Moultons thought she had taken
herself discreetly away, and Everett
mourned her as lost until a friend wrote
to him of hearing music strangely like
what Kathleen had played on one of
the Boothbav Islands. He had made
inquiries which resulted in Everett's
calling on the Marlows.
With Kathleen he went to Chipmunk
Island, and on the sence of her happi
ness and misery the meaning of it all
came back to her and was never lost
again.
That Fall, when Robert Mariow sail
ed from Boston harbor. Kathleen and
her husband came down to the wharf
to see him ofE He found little to say
as he grasped their hands in iiis fare
well, but Kathleen, glancing up with a
kindly smile, said: "However long vou
may be away, be sure we shall not for
get."

Calling tor Government Bonds.
Secretary Fairchild has directed the an
tisipation ot the interest on the public debt
due on Sept. 1 and Jan. 1 with two per
cent rebate, and invited proposals for the
sale of 4 1-2 per cent bonds lor the sinking
fund. Secretary Fairchild said in explan
ation of this action, that he did it simply
because he regarded it as the'best thing
that could bedoneunder the circumstances.
The purchase ot bonds was for the purpose
ot providing for tlic sinking fund and the
anticipation of interest for the purpose of
getting rid of the surplus. The latter oper
ation was only what any good business
man would do to discount his obligations.
The anticipations of interest was one of
the means given to the secretary of the
treasury for disposing of surplus funds,
and he regarded it as the cheapest and
most advantageous. Interest covered by
the circular amounts to $22,:$19,7G4. It
is impossible just now to state the exact
amount of rebate. The sinking fund re
quirements will amount to about $'45,000,
000, in addition to §20,000,000 of 3 per
cent bonds already applied to that fund.
The surplus can be put out only through
the co-operation of bondholders, and if
tliey do not accept the terms of the pro
position made them, it would seem they
are not in very great need of money.
The Offence and Pies of Dynamiter,
Kew York Dispatch: An attempt was
made Wednesday to blow up the steamer
Queen, of the National line. One of the
dynamiters, who says his name is Thomas
J. Mooney, jumped into a small boat and
attempted to escape, but was captured
and brought to police headquarters.
Mooney had in his possession a large dag
ger and revolver. As yet has given no
cause for his action. The damage to the
steamer was trifling.
Mooney subsequently told Judge Dubby
the reason he attempted blow up the steam
er was because the British insulted the
American flag in Canada."Mooney waa re
manded. Mooney said to the court:
I think a great injuctice has been done
citizens of the United States. We have as
much right to tear down the Knglish (lag
as Britishers have to tear down the Amer
ican banner. The Knglish actasdeviUand

Sir George Trevelyan's victory continues
of absorbing interest. London and pro
vincial Conservetive newspapers agree in
saying the election is an ominous fact, and
it would be unwise to attempt to ignore
or extenuateitssignificance. Gladstonians
are confident that an immediate general
election would result in the return of a
Home Rule majority. The same view is
shared by Ministerialists, which fact leads
to a free expression of opinion that the
government, being sure of a compact ma
jority during the run of the present parlia
ment, will not risk dissolution till the end
of tho natural term, five years hence, when
Gladstone will probably be dead, or his
powers weakened.

Mrs. MART A. McCLURB, CoIumhtM, Kant.,
writes: addressed you in November, 1884,
in regard to my health, being afflicted with
liver disease, heart trouble, and female weak*
nogs. I was advised to use l)r. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, Favorite Pre
scription and Pellets. I used one bottlo
of the 'Prescription,' Ave of the 'Discov­
ery,' and four of tho' Pleasant Purgative Pellets.' My health be
gan to Improve under tho use of your medicine, and my strength
came back. My difficulties have all disappeared. 1 can work hard
all day, or walk four or live miles
a day, and stand it well and when
I began using the medicine 1 could scarcely walk across the room,
most of the time, and I did not think I could ever feel well again.
I have a little baby girl eight months old. Although she is a little
delicate in size and appearance, she is healthy. I give your reme
dies all the cradit for curing me,
as I took no other treatment al'ter
beginning their use. I am very grateful for your kindness, and
thank God'and thank you that I am as well as 1 am after years
of suffering."
Mrs. I. V. WEBBER, of Yorkshire, Cattaraugus Co.,
I ,urn I'M writes: I wish to say a few words in praise
Llltn your 'Golden Medical Discovery'and 'Pleasant
Purgative Pellets.' For five years previous to
DISFiSF taking them I was a great sufferer I had a
KiwkHUb. severe pain in my right side continually: was
unable to do my own work. I am happy to say
I am now well and strong, thanks to your medicines.
Chronic Diarrhea Cored.—D. LAZ&RRE, Esq., 275 and til

the 'Golden Medical Discovery,' and it has cured me of chronic
diarrhea. My bowels are now regular."
BLOTCHES.
Rev. P. ASBURY HOWEM* Pastor of the M. E.
Church, of SUverton, JV. J., says: "I was af
flicted with catarrh and indigestion. Boils and
blotches began to nrise on the evrfaec of the
skin, and 1 experienced a tired feelinir and
dullness. I began the use of Dr. i'lerce's
Golden Medical Discovery as directed by
him for such complaints, and in one weeks
time I began to feel like a new man, and am now sound and well.
The' Pleasant Purgative Pellets' are the best remeily for bilious or
Sick headache, or tightness about the chest, and bnd taste in the
mouth, that I have ever used. My wife could not walk across the
floor when she began to take your 'Golden Medical Discovery.'
Now she can walk quite a little ways, and do some light work."

LIVER, BLOOD AND LONG DISEASES.
GOLDEN MEDICAL DISCOVERY cures Consumption (which is Scrofula of the Lungs), by its wonderful blood-purifying, invigora
Lunjrs, Slitting of Blood, Shortness of Breath, Bronchitis, Severe Coughs, Asthma,
While it promptly cures the severest Coughs it strengthens the system
It rapidly builds up the system, and increases the flesh and weight of those reduced below the usual standard of health
wasting diseases."
Consumption.—Mrs. EDWARD NEWTON, of Harrowemltht
Ont., writes: You will ever be praised by mo for the remarka
ble cure in my case. I was so reduced thnt my friends had all
given me up, and I had also been given up by two doctors. I then
went to the best doctor in these parts. He told mo that medicine
was only a punishment In my case, and would not undertake to
treat me. He said I might try Cod liver oil if I
liked, aa that was the only thing that could possi
bly have any curative power over consumption so
far advanced. I tried the Cod liver oil as a last
treatment, but I was so weak I could not keep it
on my stomach. My husband, not feeling satisfied
to give me up yet, though he had bought for me
everything he saw advertised for my complaint, procured a quan
tity of your' Golden Medical Discovery.' I took only four bottles,
and, to the surprise of everybody, am to-day doing my own work,
and am entirely free from that terrible cough which harrassed me
night and day. I have been afflicted with rheumatism for
a number
or years, and now feel so much better that I believe, with a con
tinuation of your'Golden Medical Discovery,'I will be restored
to perfect health. I would say to those who are falling a prey to
that terrible disease consumption, do not do cs I did, take eveiy
thing^else first but take the'Golden Medical Discovery' in the
early stages of the disease, and thereby save a great deal of suf
fering and be restored to health at once. Any person who is
•till In doubt, need but write me, inclosing a stamped, self
addressed envelope for reply, when the foregoing statement will
tie fully substantiated by me."
