So Goes the World.
Onr variea days pa<? on and on,
' Our hopes lade unfulfilled away.
And things which seem the life of lil"
i Are taken from u* day by day ;
And yet through all tho b?sv streets
The crowd of pleasure-seekers thro
The puppets play, the showman c:dls,
And gossips chat tho whole day loin
And so ?lie world goes on !
Our little dramas come to naught ;
Our lives may fall, our darline plan
Mnv crumble into nothingness.
Our rirmest castle fall to sand ;
Anti yet the children sing mid dunce,
The money-makers laugh and shou
The stars, unmindful, still shine brig
Unconscious that our light is out,
And so the -world goes on ?
The honse grows sad that once .was ga
The dear ones seek their blessed hoi
And we may watch and wait in vain
To hear their well-known footst
come:
And yet the sunlight flecks tho floor,
And makes tho Summer shade
throne;
The rosebuds at the easement bloom,
The bird pours forth his cheerful so:
And HO tho -world goes on !
And dod goes on, and with our woe,
Weaves golden threads of joy and pea
Guarding within his heart of hearts,
Onr days of pain, our days of ease
He maries them all-tho seed, thesheav
Tile dancer's smile, the mourner's te:1
And keeps them safo-TTis children al
Through all the great etcnud years,
And so, thank God, thc woi'?dgoes <

'.My poor Annie!" said Di
Lowen,' pityingly, looking down, frc
his station at the mante!, upon 1
consin Annie, who was curled in
big armchair.
" "Why am I pioor / unie ?" s
asked, rather impatient1:*.
"Because you are 'building cs
ties in the air,' forgetting that' neat
are broken, heads are turned,' wi
such employment."
Annie tapped her foot in anno
ance, bit her lip, settled herself cor
iortably, adjusted her bracelets', he
her " solitaire'' up to the light, ar
delivered herself of the following :
" Say no more, Dick. You coui
not shake my faith in ht? f frith ar
more than-.than-"
"Than I can get up faith in hi
myself. Put it that way, An?ie, an
I'll agree with yon. Now. Fm gqic

"You shan't say such woras to m
Dick!" she cried, rising, her tin
figure-stretched to its utmost Iinji
in wrath. Largo tears stood in he
pretty eyes, and her voice trembl?e
At this interesting juncture ihe doc
opened, an? a servant announcer!
'.Mr. Holst." They both started i
confusion. Annie ran forward, an
seized her lover's hand in a pussio
of tears. *
Dick, his forces routed, flag trailing
and the foe triumphant, made
haughty bow and an ignominiou
retreat, and, going to his own apart
ment, he apostrophised Mr. Holst ii
a very naughty manner.

Dick Bowen had long cherished ?
weakness for his" cousin Annie, bu
was never quite able to make up hi
mind that a poor man can defy th<
world and marry an heiress. Anni)
had always consulted his wishes mic
tastes in everything, and he fanciec
she guessed his feelings; bM.t now ai
intruder had appeared on the scene
-the golden opportunity hat) slipped
by-his royalty neared the lina.! gasp
He was morally convinced that Etolsl
wa3 a scamp, and his cousin's proper
ty, in her own hands, made her ar
easy victim. " "Women are so irre
pressible !" he sighed.
* * * *
" Aunt Jessica says you want tc
many me yourself," sobbed Annie,
ono aay on the piazza, after being
informed again that her fortune was
the attraction. " I wonder if ?tc is
any more mercenary than you ?"
" I never asked you to marry mc,''
said Richard, dejectedly. "If I had.
Annie, what would you have done?"
This was a poser. Annie " didn't
know, was glad lie hadn't, hoped he
wouldn't," etc. ; while Dick was call
ing himself badin?mes fer not. hav
ing put himself <in ; the position to
sing baritone to her. Finding the
pause disagreeable, Annie pulled a
rose to pieces, and said :
" Anne Jessica likes him ever so
milch !" t
" Aunt Jessica be hanged. "
" Why, Dick ! Your very o?-.-?
mother ?" said Annie, in a shocked
tone.
.'"Well, I only meant it in an ex
postulatory way, you know, dear/]
said Richard, remorsefully. " You
.see, yon will go and make me commit
all sorts of dreadful things. Sup
pose I should shoot that man-"
"I'd never forgive you, never!
Cousin Dick, I am in real earnest ;
I jest no longer. If you interfere
with my love affairs any more, I'll-"
'.So be it, Miss Annie Morris;
then, manage them yourself. I prom
ise you I shan't interfere, if. you
want to marry a man in jail for
sheep-stealing.',' Anil Dick walked
oil'in a huit"; while Annie mentally
wished he'd "go to* C?nada;'' anti
physically fell to crying-that pana
cea for weale-nerves and weak minds.

'.' Aunt Jessica, do you think- it'1
would be very dreadful in me to go
yachting with Mr. Holst?" Annie
was in a very pleading, position, by
old Mrs. Bowen's knees, making be
lieve to pick up the old lady's bali ol'
yarn; really getting up courage to
propose what had lain heavy at her'
heart for days.
"Why, no, dear," said prudent;
Mrs. Bowen. . "If Dick goes along\
with you, I see no objection."
But if Dick doesn't?"
" Then, I think, little Annie, I'd
stay at home. People might talk,
you know," patting her cheek,
" I don't care for that, if you don't
said Annie, stoutly.
Mrs. Bowen put down her knitting,
and looked in her niece's face.
" Are you in earnest? Do I un*
derstand by 'yachting'., the cruising
you did last summer with the Pax
tons ?"
" Precisely," said Annie, preparing
her farces.
" And you mean me to understand
chat Mr. Holst has proposed to take
you on a cruise alone ?"
"Aunt Jessica, do take oit.your
spectacles ! I hate that kind of a
look! I never heard of such an old
?drs. Noah ! Don't I mean to marry
Mr. Holst?"
Mrs. Bowen sighed, and took off
her spectacles.
" My dear child," she said, know
ing her subject, ano. treading lightly
on the dangerous ground -" my

Dick Bowen gave'her one look, a

after him so noisily thai Mrs. Btfw
awoke with a" start, and scolded A
nie for playing that "hateful,- noi
trash:" ; ?... ?
Annie walked up to led in
grand style, but she was ill at ea?
Dick's ur-ter ignoring of the marri*
sister clouded uer " blue sky." "
was rather singular that dear Frai
had never brought them togeth*
never mentioned her before." Th?
she looked rather complacently at tl
rosebud mouth he had called " so b
witching" a few hours ago, and end<
by thinking it didn't much matt
what Dick thought.
" There are none so blind aa tho:
who will no: see."
* * * *
The next day. Dick was nowhei
to be seen. He left a line to expiai
his absence on the score of " business;
but Annie was too much engrosse
wi:h her own affairs to care ab<>i
bis movements. Mr. Holst h ad calle
soon after breakfast, and oltaine
her promise to be one of th? yachtin
party from the beach next day; an<
after some hesitating questions aboi
the gentlemen and Mrs. Nillo; Anni
slowly convinced herself tluxt h(
aunt and cousin were "ol-i fogies,
aud Mr. Holst the t?nd?^t an
wisest of men.
* * * * '
The day for the excursion dawne
clear and- bright, and Mis. Bowel
having urged, begged, ?nd eiiYreate
in vain, was forced, to yiuitl. Th
house was Annie's, and sw yat
horse*, carriage-everything. Wlia
could she do? Only advise; an
and advice, S??? the world wa
made, has it not lee? p??s?ous swal
lowing? Quinine is no cu-./mstanc
to good advice ; in the patter c
taking, I mean."
Arrived at the leach, sitting up ii
her grand carriage at Mr. Holst'
side, Annie felt her importance. Sin
was received with flattering attentioi
by three whiskered dandies, and !
bewitching little bruijette in a le
coming costume ; and, lehV?? aji-eliat
time to reflect, Mr. Holst, took tin
liberty of ordering off thc carriage
and taking possession of his fiancee
A merry party stepped on board th?
natty little yacht, with 1er colon
flying and sails spread for the breeze
Annie was charmed with the novelty
Mr. Holst was tender watchfulness
itself, Mrs. Niblo the mp?t enchanting
woman she had ever seen, asid th?
whiskered friends of her lord dis
creetly monosyllable. Th^ only un
congenial element were too big, ugly
looking men wandering about the
boat, and a third who sat in the stern
" Who ?fi he ?" whispered Annie tc
Mrs. Niblo, nodding toward the lat
ter. " I don't like his looks."
" Only the coxswain, dear. Wt
couldn't manage the boat ourselves,
you know. Don't mind him."
" When will we get to New Ha
ven?" she asked, beginning to:-get a
little sea-sick, lor now they were go
ing along swiftly, and the Mgr motion
produced its effect.
" Wc won't go that way, at all,at all,
dear. Frank says Bridgeport is much
prettier, and will not take so long,
you know."'
" I told aunt
Here Annie's attention was 'called
from the subject in hand ly a sudden
observation i'rom one of the party, and
she forgot to refer to it again, thiuk
iug i.t " didn't much matter." '
By night Annie was so wick that
she thought y niching altogether stupid
and horrid, especially as she was shut
up in the hot little hole, called ly
courtesy " the calin," whila' the oth
ers were up on deck enjoying them
selves in the breeze. The next morn
ing did not find her much lotter,..and
she did noe enjoy (being laughed at.
Eating was out of tbe^se&ip.n. The
very mention of sardines and pickles
made her angry. Hadn't she suffered
torture?, torments, agonies all tight
fruin the above-mentioned edibles?
B sidas, Annie did not find Mrs.
Niolo half as charn>iflg when she
laughed at her miseries, &JJ4 called
her sickness " childish stuff."
" I wisii you could be sea-cick for
a whole week !" cried our lad-tem
pered Annie, wishing she had never
come, and longing for Dick and Aunt
Jessica. Mr. Holst's tender speeches
did not sound half so sweet wafted
down the hot -skylight, as they did
whispered under the trees' at -home.
So Annie, even when her ailments
grew a sha??e better,-^ pautedy'-and
wouldn't come up: oat deofe.^Mrs.
Niblo's report'to ? her-brothel?. :^vas as
follows : - - & .
" Yonf d?rling has the sulks."
But Mr, Holst paid no attention.
He -ivas looking at a yacht which .had'
kept in their wake 'ever- since they
left Long Beach-a yacht that; came
so .near sometimes, that he fancied he
recognised a New York face?h? was,
not particularly anxious to y?ee; PO,
forgetting his fiancee belowrhe cried,
aloud :
"Ha! I believe that is the fellow
who h tis dogged hie fog: &Len months !
Has the little wretch peachd ?"
These tones of her beloved's voice
were borne down to Annie, and the
effect was electric. ' Springing np on
the couch, she listened to what fol
lowed. For a few minutes there was
silence, ' and she fancied she had
dreamed ? then the baritone was heard
again;
" ril stake my head" they are.af
ter us ; but we'll be. even with them
yet! Dog the girl, I wish I had let
her alone !"
" A cool twenty thousand dollars
is not to be sneezed at,'.' came down
to the cabin ; "besides, I don't mean
to play ' sister' for nothing. I, tell
you what, Holst, I think I am very:j
accommodating! If you had ! the
little sea-sick fool on your hand^ to
humor, you'd have given up j the
thing before this. " But that'? allays

herself with muttering wrath which^
did not reach-the attentive listener
in the cabin? but poor Annie had
heacd- enough,. When'. Mrs. Niblo
came down, she saw at a glance
that .further disguise was unnecessary,
and the fact was communicated to the
others..
All; through the weary day Annie
lay powerless on the couch, listening
to the thumping of the boat,- giving
way to -mental and physical prostra

["hppeless, despairing way.- -Complete;'

" I'll rouse the house first !" cried
Annie, passionately. "J won't fign

"Tut, tut," sneered Mrs, Niblo,
" you know nothing of life. The
world is full of as big fools as you
are, and I've never known Holst at a

The ugly coxswain, whom Annie
had noticed, was a paid detccjtiye to

noted burglar, while engaging him to
be of the yatching party. Holst was
of course an assumed name, and poor
Aunie almost fainted again when the
notorious appellation of her fascina

learned, jt}ir.ough the coxswain, of their
destination, arid thus been ena

Annie Morris went .home to Aunt

ITS CURE AND ET3 PREVENTIVE.
By J. H. flGHHTCK, M. D. '
Many ahuman being-has passed away for whose
death chere was no other reason than the neglect of
known and Indisputably proyen means or cure.
Those near, and dear to family and Mends are
Bleeping the dreamless slumber Into which, had
they calmly adopted . . i . ., .

and availed themselves of his wonderfully: cfflca
cious medicines, they woold not'tove fallen! *.
Dr. Sehende has In bis own case- proved that
wherever sufficient vitality remains, that vitality,
by his medicines and his directions for tuen* use, ls
quickened Into healthful vigor.
In thia statement there Is nothing- presumptuous.
To the raith of the invalid ls made no representation
that ls nota thousand times substantiated by living
and vistula works. The theory of thc cure by Dr.
Scheuet'? medici nea ls as simple as it is unfailing.
Its philosophy requires no argument. It la Bclf-as
OTnng.self-convInclnp;.
The Sea-weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills arc the
first two weapons with which tho citadel ;of the
malady ls assailed. . Two-thirds o? the cosas of con
somption originate In dyspepsia and a functionally
disordered liver. With this condition the bronchial
tubes " sympathize", with the stomach? rTieyre
spond to the morbific action of the liver. ' Here thea
comes the culminating result, and the setting In,
with alt Its distressing- symptoms or |7 . ? *??

' The Mandrake Pills ure composed of one D/ Na

They possess all the blood-searching, alterative
propenleaof calomel, but. unlike calomel, they- -
. " Ii EA VE HO .HT IX? BEIIJXD." .
The work of cure ls now-beginning. ' The vitiated
and mucous deposits in the bowels and lu the ali
mentary canal are ejected. The liver, lfkca'clock,
ls wound up., It arouses from its torpidity. Ttve
stomach" acts responsively, and thc patient begins

- The Sea-weed Tonic, in conjnlicffon with Sw Pills,
permeates and rAslmilatos with tho food,, -Obyriil

To 1 lu a very snorttlme the malady ls vanou?sh?$
the rotten throne that lt occupied Li renovated aud
made new; and the patient, in all the dlgnityfef re^
gained vigor, stepn forth, to enjoy the manhood or
womanhood that was T" r

The second thing ls, the patients must star In a
warm room until they get well Mt ls almost. Impos
sible to prevent toking cold when the 1UII?I3B dis
eased, but It must be prevented or a cure can not be
effected. Fresh air and riding out, especially in thia
section of the country, in the fall and winter sea
son, are all wrong. Physicians who recommend
tirai course'lose their' patients, If their lungfc are
badly diseased: and. yet, because they aro is the
house they must not sit down quiet ; they mustwalk
about the room as much and as fast as Ure strength
will bear, to get up a good circulation of blood.j The
patients must keep fn good spirits-be determined
to get well. This has a great deal to do wita the
appetite, and ls the great point to gain.
To despair of cure after snchj evidence of ita pos
sibility fn the worst cases, and moral cortaJnty in
Ul others, ls sinful. Dr. t derick's, personal state
ment to the Faculty of bis own cure was IQ (hese
modest words: ./.'. . Tis . .
"Many years ago I was in the last stages of,con
sumption ; confined"to my bed, and at one time my
physicians thought tljutlco-nd not Uvea week; then,
like a drowning man -artchlng at straws, I heard of
and obtained the preparations which ? now oller to
the public, and they made a perfect cure of me. It
seemed to, me that I could feel them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter in my
lungs,and I would spit up naore than apint of offen
sive yellow matter every morning for * long, time.
tr Aa? soon as that began to subside,' my cough
fever, pains, and nlght-sweau?all Oregon to leavd me
and my appetite became so great that lt was wita:;
difficulty that I coold keep /rom eating' too much.
T soon gained my strength, and have grown lu flesh
ever si ace. . n .ni vi'i . T
? r was weighed shortly after my recovery," added
tho Doctor, " then looking like a mere skeleton j my
weight was only ninety-seven poumii- aiy prient
weight ls two hundred and' twenty-five (22S) poutad*.
andfor years Ihave enjoyed uninterrupted health.'*
Dr. Bchenck bus discontinued his professional
visits to New York and Boston. Hear his son. Dr
J.'H: Scheuek, Jr., fltlll'contlnue to see patients at
their Otu cc, No, L5 North Sixth Stre^ Philadelphia,
every Saturday from 9 A.M. ta 3 Those who
wish, a thorough, examination with the Hespir o
meterwlU be charged$5. The Reeplrometer declares
the exact condition-of the lungs, and patients can
readily'leam .whether they axe curable oe not,
The directions for taking th? medicines are adapt
ed to the intelligence even, of a child. Follow these
directions, and kind Nature will do the rest, except
ing that In some cases the Mandrake Pills are to be
taken In Increased doses; the three medicines deed
no other accompaniments than the ample Instruc
tions that accompany them: First create appetite.
Of returning health, hunger Is'the.most welcome
symptom. V?be? U, comes; as lt wi ll come, let the
despairing at once beVof good cheer. Good blood at
once follows, the ccttgh loosens, the night-sweat ia .
abated. In a short time both of these morbid symp
toms are gone forever. .? . ? ' ; ii rt nc] if TT?J
Dr. Schen'ck's medidnos are constantly kept in
tens of thousands of families. As & laxative or pur
gative, the Mandrake Pills ore a standard prepara
tion; while the Pulmonlc Syrup, os a bureo? coughs
and colds, may be regarded as a prophylactic
against consumption in any of its forms. . . j
