Baby's Fingers on the Pune.
From the* niu*ii* -trilling
Down tin* dim aieailt* <>1' y«-uie,
Como tile melodies I Il'eaMire,
Hallowed by my joys and tr.-irs :
And nnril their n.agic number*.
Reaching dow a "olden chain.
I can hear a baby's lingei.s
Tapping on the pane.
When my hands with toil wet* weary,
And the twilight shadows lei!.
And I wandered slowly homeward
To my cot within the dell,
Then ti»y weary steps gmw I."liter.
As then limited ib wii the lane,
Music sweet of baby's lingers
Tapping on the window pane.
Oft: the world in colduess met me
And would crush me in its pride. ;
Oft misfortnue gathered round tire
To o'eithrow me with its tide.
Sick and weary, faint and hungry,
I would wander up the lam* ;
Then how clear was baby's lingers
Calling at the window pane.
But one eve a datkened shadow
Fell across the cottage door,
And the crape upon the morrow
Hung it folds along the door.
Years of weariness aud sorrow
I have listed till in vain
F >r the sound of baby's lingers
Calling at the window pane.
But methinks within the cottage
Of the city pure ol gold,
There is waiting for n.y footsteps
Papa's baby as of old.
And some summer day in Heaven
Treading up a pearly' lane,
I shall hear my baby's lingers
Tapping on the window pane.
REPUBLICAN NERVOUSNESS.
_
A Way of Accounting for it : The Repub
licans Admit That Blaine Is Their
^ttktrattoi. Fear the Dem<MTa * I
On all aides it is admitted that |
to renominate Blaine would be par
ty suicide. Why ? Surely the j
Maine statesman is the embodi
meat of true bine Republicanism ; j
more magnetic tbau any other man ,
in the party ; towering head aud
shoulders, intellectually, above all
other aspirants, is the the most pop ;
ular and eager candidate of them
all, and yet, in one voice, aud with j
one accord, his party is iu favor ot
relegating him to the rear of the
procession, behind the Shermans
and the YYiudouis, the Culloius and
the Allisons. It must be galling
to Blaine.
There most be some reason for J
this dire Republican party distress.
It was not fo four years ago, nor |
three years ago. At that time the
woods were full of man who could
lead the party to victory, but none
more gallautly aud gloriously than
Blaine. It is not so uow ; the sup
ply is uot equal to the demand, in
fact the supply appears to be com
pletely exhausted, and the party
appears to be completely exhausted
over its search for a candidate.
Surely, Blaine has done nothing
since 1884, either iu a political or i
public way, that would have a ten i
deucy to make him unpopular witb
the people or bis party. On the
contrary, he has been very cireum
speet, and in no manner or way has
be intruded his peculiar views up
ou his pany associates or attempt
ed to reward friends or punish ene
inies. Ostensibly he has stood
aloot from the field of politics, pos
ing as a statesman, and he ou^ht
to have beuetitted by the retire
ment. We think he has. But
wbat ot bis party, bow has that
fared ?
It can not be claimed witb any
degree of consistency that Blaiue
ism, or Republicanism has made
any strides toward winning back
the confidence and the votes of the
people. On the contrary Blaine
Republicanism has been a gradual
loser in politics since the first ses
sion of Congress under Cleveland's
Administration, and the Bemocra !
lie party has gaim-tl what its ad I
veisary has lost. The loss and the
gain aecouiits liepubiictin nervous
uess and Democrat it: composure.
Dcs Moines Leader.
Among tlie people of to-day. there are
few indeed, who have not heard of the
merits of Prickly Ash Bark and Berries,
as h household remedy. Teas and drinks
have been made ot them for centuries,
and in hundreds of families have formed
the sole reliance in rheumatic and kidney
diseases. Prickly Ash Bitteis now take
the place of the old system aud 's more
beneficial iu all troubles of this nature.
And he w NT.— She was a tender
passionate thing, full of those sweet,
| emotional charms that lead to engage
i meats which calmer reason throws a
different light upon. She sang. She
I did not ooly try to sing as most young
women do. She could sing, and *sh-e
i sang. She liked pretty sentimental
ballads, and once forgot the point, and
drove (a fellow away by giving him
with tine expressiou aud forgetful eu
thusiasiu that beautiful musical ad vice,
'Bid Me Good-bye ami Go !" He bade
her "Good-bye" mid went. She could
not understand what he meant, until '
through the teal filled eyes she lead ac 1
cidentally the legend on the page of
music. It is needless to say lie return
ed. It is tio use asking how she did
it. It wouldn't do you any any good
to know. Every girl has her own pa j
tented way of bringing a fellow back.
It i- the only thing they are distinctly i
original in. except making pie. i

If you have itl), or any considerable number

Dr. Pierce'* Golden .nodical Dis
covery acts powerfully upon the Diver, and
through that great blood -purifying organ,
cleanses the system of all blood-taints and itn
purities, from whatever cause arising. It is
equally efficacious in acting upon the Kid
neys. and other excretory organs, cleansing,
«rengthenjng, and healing their diseases. As
an appetizing, restorative tonic, it promotes
unrest ion and nutrition, thereby building up
both flesh and strength. In malarial districts,
this wonderful medicine has gained (mat
celebrity in curing Fever and Ague, Chills and
I^ever, Dumb A^uf*, and kiiKlnnldisoam*8.

and cured by this remedy, if taken in the
earlier stages of the disease. From its mar
velous power over this terribly fatal disease,
when first offering this now world-famed rem
edy to the public. Dr. Pierce thought seriously
of calling it his " Consumption Curk," but
abandoned that name as too restrictive for
a medicine which, from its wonderful com
bination of tonic, or strengthening, alterative,
or blood-cleansing, anti-bilious, pectoral, and
nutritive properties, is unequaled, not onlv
as a remedy for Consumption, but for all
