ti.RUT, OP Tay NSW YUBA IlAiNtl INPIRII
ARIZ.—My connection fur the past eight yeare with the
above lustitation, as Chief Physician, and a twelve years'
course of steady devotion to the Cure of Pulmonary Clow
eumption and its kindred dismay's, together with my nu
t Walled imparts:witted and advantage of pathological research
—aided not a little by a perfect system of Medical Inhalu
gimp—has enabled um to artrive at a decisive, direct and sue-
CA sant course of treatment far the positive and radical cure
of all di-eases of the Throat, Lungs, and Air-I - Wings& By
Inhalation, the vapor and curative properties of medicines
are`directly aireseed to the diseased organs and the integu
ment Ido not inla(d° the use of Medical inhalation of any
Mud, to the exclusion of general treatment; and although I
consider It a useful adjuvant in the proper management of
those fearful and often fatal diseases, yet I deem it very en
cesaary that each patient should have the benefit of both
general and local treatment. The success of ray treatment
in the abovediseaeos ' and the high character of the Institu
tion over which I have so long had the honor to preside,are
too well known to need any eulogy or comment from me.
At the solicitation of many private and professional friends,
through whose philanthropic aid the above charity has been
long and liberally supported, and after duo consideration, I
have concluded, to make such urraugementa as will bring
the U. nefits of y experiments and treatment within the
reach of all, and not confine myself, as heretofore, to those
only who entered the Infirmary, or who wore able to visit
me at my !Alice. doping therefore that the arrangement
will give entire satisfaction, both to toy professional breth
ren and the public, I would respectfully announce lu Can
di:mien, that !can now be cam:sited personally or by letter.un
ad diseases us above end that the medicines, the same us
need in the Institution, prepared to suit each individual
case. Inhaling Vapors, Medical Inhalers, do., dc., will be '
forwarded by expressf-to any part of the United Btatee or
the Canaelam. Tams—My terms cf treatment by letter aro
OS follows, via: $l2 per month far each patient which will
include medicine sufficient for one mouth's nee; also, In

Mouth, if the pall. nt be cured or is entirely satisfied with
the treatment. Patients, by giving a full history of their
case, and their symptoms In lull, eau be treated as well by
letter as by personal examination. Patients availing them
selves of Dr. Jarrett's treatment may rely npou iianted.tate

trimmed with white satin ribbon. Aunt Es.
ther Lee was our father's only sister, and she
had been a childless widow for many years,
the latter half of which she had passed at
our home.
Cousin Alice Lake was passing the vacation
w.th us. There was •not a year's difference
in our ages, and wo had been schoolmates
, from early childhood, and I believe sisters eel-
I dom love each other as. we did.
That afternoon Aunt Esther had started out
on a visit to Farmer Pike's, the rich old wid%
ower, whose great yellow brownish house
stood on the turnpike, half a mile from our
house.
... -
Farmer Pike was a strange, hard man ; you
would have felt this with one- glance at his
strong, rugged features, his iron gray hair,
and his large, muscular person, that had not
bowed itself with the weight of three score
years.
lie lived with his housekeeper and his hired
men,in the great yellow brown house, an hon
est, industrious man, but without a single af
fection or social sympathy in the world;—
with a life as cold and stark and barren as a
desert; over whOse bosom no running stream
winds its necklace of jewels; in whose dry,
dead heart no sweet flower opens its soft lips
to the sunshine.
Yet Farmer Pike's life bad its tragedy, so
i believo.all lives have, if we could only un
look the hidden cabinets, where they are laid
aw ty from every eye but God's.
Many years ago, Farmer Pike had married
a woman much younger than himself. A
woman ith one of those gentle, shrinking,
mimosa natures, that seemed to have few
points of sympathy with his coarse, rugged
character.
llowover,l believe they got on well together,
aod it is probable the tremulous, gentle wife
called out whatsoever of tenderness there was
in the coarser soul of her husband. Atlast,
a sun was born to them, and the delicate
mother fall into a decline, and before her
boy's life had covered its third year,the grass
had laid its green covering over the mother's
head.
Mrs. Pike and Aunt Esther Leo were school
mates, and had always been friends ;so the
farmer placed Joseph under her care, and he
cou tinned to reside with her until at my moth
er's death, which occurred several years later,
my aunt came to us, the boy went home to his
father.
Joseph was a warnAhearted, but terribly
self-willed boy. My aunt had more influence
over him than any other person, for she loved
him almost as though he were her own child.
believe, too, Farmer Pike was very fond of
his bright, handsome boy, but he wag a cold,
undemonstrative man, and' he and Joseph
never got on well together.
As the boy grew older hie father determin
ed upon making him a farmer but Joseph's
active, energetic nature revolted at this life .
he was bent upon going out into the world,
and trying his fortune there. I knowlthe old
yellow brown house witnessed some terrible
contests between the father's will and the
eon's determination ; there were harsh threats
on one side, and sullen resistance on the
other, until worn out with these things, Jo
seph made up his mind to " rum away and.go
to sea."
Ho did this with his usual rash impulsive%
ness and then farmer Pikein his wrath, lifted
up his hand and swore solemnly that Joseph
should not inherit a dollar of his property;
that he would never see or speak to him again
to the day of his death. He lived in the gel
lowhiown house, a lonely, childless old man,.
broadening his acres every year, and brood.,
ening, too, by his cold, selfish, unproductive
life, the gulf between him and the kingdom.
of Heaven.
One day in the late spring, however, an old
man and a little golden haired ,hild stopped
at our house, and asked for Aunt Esther Gray.
Then for the first time in all these years, wo
heard of ..Toseph Pike.
Life had been with him " no dance of roses" .
nut a long, sharp struggle. he had married
young, and his children WA been taken fir•oni
him, and at last his young wife had been laid
beside him, leaving him only the golden hik
ed boy that stood before us. •
Joseph inherited the delicate constitution
of his mother, and his. health had failed Un
der all these trials.. Lie lu4 wandered ,from
place to place with his motherless. bop in
search of now strength. But, he failed rap-.
idly, and at last bitnself gave' npull hope, of
recovery. Then he wrote to my aunt,' the,
• mother of his boyhood, as he called her, and
bequeathed to her tenderness, his only child,
scarcely four Flare old. And the old man
NUMBER 291;
who brought him to us, was one who Joseph
had once rescued from drowning, and who
remained with him, out of gratitude to the
last hour of his life.
Aunt Esther bowed her head above those
golden curls, and said, while the tears drip
ped fast on the bright face that was so like
its father's—" I will take the child."
" I've made up my mind," said Aunt Es•
ther, suddenly one day Just after dinner, and
she folded up her knitting and looked off a
moment on the dusty road that wound like a
dingy red ribbon through the pastures of
Woodside.
" What have you made up your mind to .
do, aunty? " asked cousin Alice Lake and I,
simultaneously, as we looked up from the
magazines we were reading
" That I'll take Weston, Joseph's child,
and go straight over to farmer Pike's this af
ternoon. He'll be just about over his after
dinner nap when we got there. It's very well
for him to talk as he does, so long as he don't
see the child, hut come to that, I believe,
'twill be more than he can bear."
We believed it too, when we saw the
beautiful little creature waddling out. of the
front gate by aunty's 'side, although when
the neighbors had informed farmer Pike that
Joseph was dead, and lie had bequeathed his •
only child to my aunt, he had sternly replied
let her keep him then. As-for me, I:will
never see' him, never have anything- to do
with him."
It was not I) , wondered at that Alice and
I awaited our aura's return, with' eager curia
ositv, or that Ilia aaioiries with which my
story commences, greeted her entrance. She
did nut reply at once, she took a palm-leaf fan
that lay on the table, 'seated herself in the
arm chair, while her features worked pain
fully.
" I never bad anything came across me .
so," she exclaimed at last, more to herself .
than to us. And then, the tears rolled over
her cheeks. After awhile she grew calmer, '
and told het story to cousin Alice and me,
sitting in her large rocking -chair fanning
herself with her palm-leaf fan. - •
" You see farmer Pike had
,just risen from
his afternoon nap, and was going out 'the
back door as I gut round by the meadow in
front of the house. I espied him and hur
ried round there just as he got up to the
well." , I,
"' How d'ye do, Farmer Pike?' I said in
a free neighborly sort ,of way, as I came .up
to him, 'can't you let this. child have a drink
of water; he's had a long walk, and got preta
ty nigh tuckered out.",
" The old man was completely taken aback.
I could see that, by the; way he looked at, me,
and I looked back at him asaaml and inno
cent as a lami, Then he 'glanced . at the
child, and I saw the ranseles round his tight
mouth quiver a little, but he didn't say a word;
he took up the tin cup thatistood on the
spout, and tilled it from the bucket, and held
it out to me, but his great hand shook so the
water spille I out over the top ; but of course
I didn't notice that, I jest kept on talking in
the most natural way you could imagine,
about the fine weather and the good crops we
were like to get.
"'Now say, thank you, grandpa,' I said as
I flung out the water after Weston had done
drinking.
Thank you, grandpa,' emu° out the soft,
small tones of the little child, and I knew
they went away down in that stout old man's
heart like a sharp cutting. tinrord. ' . •
Who's that- are child ? ' he asked in a
low, gruff voice, as if 14 didn't dare trust it
to speak louder." 1 '
"Well now Farmer Pilie , ' . says I , 'to hear you
ask that question. If ypa can't tell the color
o' them eyes, you must be struck stone bind,
and did you ever see a ferehead that was just
the shape o' that one, and n.little round head
that was never still bet al'aye kept Shakin'
and diddlin' round like 4 loaf on a silvertree,
and if you don't know tliat, you can't forget
that heap o' golden curls, just the ooler o'
ripe rye when the sun strikes on it. I never
see curls like them exhept on one head; and
that's under the grass a long way from here
now." )
" The . old man sat down on the stoop, and I
saw it was because his great limbs shook so
he couldn't stand. i
" I sat down toe. "T is rather warm, far
mer,' I went on, ' standin ' in the sun to-day,
though there's a veil breeze from the west.
Speaking about Weston,: though, I don't think
he has his father's mouth, though Joseph had .
a way of settin' down tight and grim,
just like yourn, farnier, 'specially when his
mind was made up on any subject.". . .
"But if you look ybu'll see that mouth ' - '5.7.;
was cut just after the patteru o' Mary's, even
to the dimple in the left-corner. 1 declare, it - -
takes me right back toithe time when Mary
and .I. used to go to school through the pass -
tore. What a merry, funslovia' creetur she
wits. I used always to think her laugh sound
ed a good deal more cheery than the robins
in the bushes as we went along."
"' Don't,Esther, don't!' ;mid Farmer Pike,
' and put up his hand as though it was more
than he could bear, and this face was white as
the tomb-stone. He bad'nt called U3O Esther
though, for more than twenty ye..;rs."
" I saw now was the time to strike, and
says I ' Yes f s'pose it's tryin' to yeur feelin'
farmer, to talk about them times, but it's coin
fortin' t . think you've got your wife and so
all made out like a picter there. Weston,
you dear boy,' 1 called out to him an he was
huntin' butterflies on the grass, and he came
trottin' up to us, ' now go and say, ' granpa,
won't you kiss me?'
" And the little fellow went up and lifted
his sweet, baby face to the old man, and
lisped out so pretty, r Won't you ties me,
grandpa?"
"The old man reached out his arms, and
gathered up the child in eueti a quick, hungry
sort of a way, that I ryas althost scared, and
he groaned out, " Oh Mary 1 oh Joseph !".in a
way, that made my heart stand still, and he
hugged up the boy so tight to his broad bosom,
that I knew he neveg would him go from it
again." 1 li• 1
At this point in her story, Aunt Esther
paused and cried, and so did cousin Alice, and
I, thought we laugli4d at each other all the
time. , .. ~ .
"Well what happened next, Aunty t" I
asked as soon as I could.
"I didn't stay anatb.er miaute, child. I
could'nt. I just slipfied round the corner of
the house, and hurried off home, bat I heard
a deep sob as I opened the gate. softly; and I
knew it Caine up froina heart that hadn't shed
a tear for more than forty years. But it eom
. forted me all the way back to think - that if
Mary in heaven knoWs what I've been dein' '
today she'll thank rue for -it." -
"But we shan't have Weston with, us.any
more now. How. shall 'we get along Without
him ?" I eiclaime/ , suddenly, `for' all our
hearts had grown to he i i iweet child.-
"Yes, we,shall havd.hiin,"' answered-Aunt
Esther, quietly, nntyigig the strings of herlegs

twenty years ago he wouldn't trust any Woman
in the village but rento bring up-a, child; and.
he ain't goin' to. thinltless of me forthis day's
