FADED FLO WEES.
An oM oian now I sit and thick
Alone and sad to-night,
gome laded flow'rs, tied up wih pink,
Hive dropped before the light.
The baok I reach' d from off the stand
Seemed quite untouched for ages,
It opeu'd wide within my hind,
Those flow'rs between the pages.
A nce my thought go back for years,
My present life fades fast ;
My eyes grow diuj unbidden tears
Spring forth and fail at last ;
And ail the ruUt of years rolls by,
And all the weary hours.
And once again I hear tbe sigh
of "one" who pluck'd those fiow'r?.
I stand once more beside the Mile
Our usual trystiu? place
I watch thu nook and note the Bmiie
Of one sweet up tura'd face.
And thtn the uii.-t roll backs again,
Ar.d all seems !tke a dream ;
Tue w.r)dlan.l path, the hav. liiorue lane,
The tlow'rs beside the stream.
Ah me! those ii'np!e faded flow'rs
Have brought back all the past,
My ehtiJ.iw'd life, uiy wasted hours.
My hopes ; to soon o'ercat.
Had tiien.witfs, lying hush'd for years,
Have KpruiiR to life once more ;
I ri-e and murmur, 'midst my tears,
"Sol lost, but gone before."
OAST OFF.
"Will I forgive you? IIjw dare you ak
it, Ua K j-tsitur ? Never, so help me IJea
vn !
There was a fierce glare in the b'ack eyes
with which Wiiitk-M t.irey steadily regarded
the handsome woman Ktaniinir paie and with
rompreascd lips before him.
SiiO had been for a solitary wa'k on the
shore, little dreaming she !hauM meet
trie tiiaii who, iu httr lu-art of hearts, was
the on!y enshrined idol.
.She had seen hiui comiog, when his-yes,
Lc!i and bright though they were, had not
S ?t ui.-.t-ei ned her graceful 'figure wending
kUiouij thecraj;s and clitTs of the rocky, wild
lcoh ; and, with a cry of inten.iest delight
ui ii her lip, t-he ha.it eued to meet hi.u.
She wa n faultlessly be:.uiiful woman,
Ku LaiigLiy tjeire.-s, Ida Rossitur, whose
tmk, oriental eyei had 'aln scores of vie
t:tu; who-e !u'irou-i nurses of ebon blak
iiair had driven r-corex of lovers half crazy,
the knew her power.au 1 how to use it;
hnd before he h -td eeo twenty-two mm
Triers drop their load of sweet sCMits.she had
kcquited the weU-earued reputation of a
coquette.
Hut every pnul has its mate ; and Id
Kossitur had met the master of her destiny;
fcha loved. Vet, .so strange u the iocunsi.s
lency of woman, that, though caught and
wooed by WinSeid Gray, hiin whom he so
k-lured, her habit of coipietry would not
tfnr.h tier to eh-jw him a preference.
Not that she intended losing him ; and
fit! the moonlight night when he told her
his loij in terrun so jiassiotiful that heart
a:u. w aih.'d with tUs j oy, wiit'ti lu pleaded,
the nwtct rumor that was going the rouiid.-i,
t,l their eujaumeut, she gracefully warded
hiia uiT, faliy inieniius to confess all on the
c-.-rrow.
Ala, tor what we will do "tri-ihorrow !"
M tuj are the in i pen tht't are crushed for
their wiiitiiiK-or tliu uiorro'tf;. the rosulu
tiin.i Luried that "to J: jr row" wa to oee
ItiSikd!
And Ida Rossitur, when the morning
Gnwriud, learned that. W'mScld Grc) had let';
I--? shore iaai. very mj.Miiig vrlliie sha was
drcaiuinj of him.
S:ic was too proud to inquire ; too proud
t write ; a:il wheu, hours later, she Was
p'jyfuliy tauuted with slaying aholhor vic
ua, and that WmGeU Grey, sho was too
rt-Mrrvcdiy haughiy to refute the aspersion,
ttt s Lr a wM bow, gave credence to the ru
Ail :!.:.?, the oue preclons episode of her
hie, t::at ha J Leea crowded into ooo biissful
i-:::;::hL, iso years aone, came rushing
i.or aj s'.ie caw Vin5e!J Grey walking
S r.v.iy a! ng, all uuconsctous of her near
rr;.x.r..i;y to him.
"iuUrM, oh, Winfield. can it be possi
lc.'' She reached forth b,th her beauti
fj: arm, a frlorious light that he could not
xiiunJcrotood, glowiog in her dark
'ie sorted, ri.ieJ his bat, and would
'i'-K ; s.-i. J on.
are not acgry with me, Mr. Grey?"
1'tr to.. :s were pleading, Lut he looked
as a siatue.
1 La-.'-j ijot forgotten our last interview,
-''' Il j-.-itur."
e M, steely tones raise 1 a fearful an
;:i iier heart.
I. I have been waiting ver since
tKt..; vju to tell you how I loved you."
1 r mi woman had spoken at last ;
'is t.:'a-j:itul b!u-h overspread lier face as
iu..ei almost wistfully at him.
U s owu cheeks reddened, but he never
&ycj his eyes from her face.
ata itiieved the confession has come
tjo !te, Jhss Rossitur. I care nothing for
.vu."
Mic -toe I like one petrified, her eyes
-c;i,g bright and wild.
-t eari?f(.r me! not care for me?"
- t't.iated the words slowly, distinctly.an
fu! .-ray palor tko while stealing across
"er her eyes riveted on his handsome
antenaiica.
i do not, Miss Rossitur; good morning."
e Uii.-,1 i :i.
Ve ly taken a dozen steps, when
"ere C"1U clutch on his arm that almost
4de luu cry out. lie turned to see Ida
ftSta.
Stop t moment, I am mystified I may
CTttZ? 'or H I know. But I must have
it from your lips again, those lips I have
dreamed so often about I thoe lips tha.t told
me the only news I ever cared to hear."
She spoke in a peculiar dreamy way !
then, before Grey could frame an answer,
her eyes filled with tears, and she laid her
hand on his arm.
"Winfield, my darling, my darling, don't
say you have ceased to care for me 1 why
don't you know I love you, I worship you?"
lie would have been less than human had
not his heart throbbed at hercorifession.lut
he smiled coldly.
"Two years ago. Miss Rossitur, I sued
for that love ; you cast it off. To-day you
offer it? I cast it off. Remembering as I
do the shame, the bitter agony of that
night, I can never forget it or forgive it."
She seemed not to hear the last words.
"You east me off you cast me offl"
"That is rather a harsh term. Miss Ros
situr. I did not say so. 1 'lease be so gocd
as to excuse me."
"No, no I Once more TViufield, forgive
me, oh, do forgive, will you not? 1 can't
live without your love, Winfield !"
She clasped her hands pleadingly, asi
rested them on his arr. A moment he
gazed into fcrer beautiful, stormy face : then,
with a calm, almost scornful turn of the lip,
spoke.
"Will I forgive you? How dare you ask
it, Ida Rossitur? Never, so help me Iiea
ven 1"
It was an awfol Lkw to the proud woman,
whose tin was loving too well ! and as Win
fiold Grey lengthened the distance between
them, a louk of most i i.iful agofty convuls
ed her features.
Gradually his receding fisture ?rew smal
ler and smaller, a he turned an angle that
hid him, there swept over her form a per
fect gust of e.iiutiou.
Unutterable despair was written on every
iiueauietit, and iu ihj words the moaned,
lusked a lifetime of grief. "Cast 03 !"
The early June sunshine came in agolden
quiver all over the delicate pink and white
velvet carpet that covered the floor of Ma
rian Thome's drussinj;-room, and while with
light fingers it touched the rare statuary,
the costly toslette ornaments, it lingered
longest, and most lovingly, oa the slight,
graceful figure that stood before ihz dress
ing mirror.
She was a golden-haired girl, this dainty
Marian Thorne, with eyes tliejrery shade ol
purple violets; shadowy, serene eyes, that
seemed ever lot-king out iuto some misty,
uncertain cloud laud.
Now, she was looking at herse'f, arrayed
in a costly robeof creamy white satin, whore
fell cloud on cloud of shimeiitig lace ; where
gleamed pure pearls, and soft, white kids.
"What, Marioa? surely you are uot
growing vain enough to try on your wedding
dress to note the effect?"
Marion laughed as the young girl held up
her hands in-amazement.
"Do you consider this vanity? If you do
I must plead guilty. I wondered how 1
would look as a bride, so I put on the robes"
"As if you couldn't have waited for to
morrow noon. Well, I guess Mr, Grey will
think you're an angel just floated down.
Oh. Marian, chere, you are faultless per
fect!" Marian smiled, and tunteJ again to the
beautiful reflection.
"I th'.ttk my dress is very becoming, and
I am pleased for WiriSeld's sake. And yet,
with all th.T rapid preparations progressing,
you ca:i'l tell the gloouJ that comes over my
spirit at times as if some hiddeu vial of
wrath was about to be poured upon me."
Marian's eyes were gazing away, away off,
as if seeking to wrest the secrets Irom her
future.
Gracie Re gave a little scream.
"Oh, you supersticious girl you and yet,
Marian, I have heard it was a bad omen to
try on a complete wedding-suit. And here
you are, nothing wanting, even the kids, the
slippers, the veil, and all."
Marian smiled and shook her head.
"Nonsense. Grade. Yet, to comfort you,
please notice I have not on the wreath."
The young girl laughed joyously.
"Good ; there's hope yet, then. Hark 1
there comes Mr. Grey, now. Shall I send
him up?" ,
A little blush flew to Marian's fair face.
"Yes, I'd like his opinion."
A moment later, and Winfield Grey stood
beside her.
"My beautiful darling ! almost ray bride !
almost my darling wife!"
He kissed her fondly, then stepped back
to regard her toilette.
"Perfect, little Marian. Pure as angels'
raiment, but none too fair for you, darling.
If 30U only were a little less serious."
He laughed as lte spoke, but the young
girl's face grew graver.
"I have such a strange feeling, Winfield.
Night alter night I dream of a barren sea
shore where are rocks and crags' over which
I am constantly fleeing to find you. And
there is a tall, dark, magnificent woman,
who haunts my dreams, with eyes like a very
demoness, that seem scorching my heart out
of my body. Then, when I waken, I am eo
exhausted that the fright follows me half
the day."
Her wistful blue eyes were lifted to his
face, but the had not noticed the pallor that
shifted across the proud, handsome features
as she mentioned the "tall, dark, magnifi
cent" woman.
He laughed, and smoothed her light curls
away from her forehead.
"If I could but forget the sensation the
vision causes."
"Perhaps you don't love me, Marian," he
gravely.
"Oh, Winfield, you know I do ; please
don't say so, you hurc me."
He kissed her sweet quivering mouth .just
as Gracie returned to assist Marian to re
move her bridal robes.
"We'll excuse you now. Mr. Grey," she
said merrily. "I'll bring Marian down pres
ently, in a more hugable form."
He threw the pretty bridemaid a kiss.and
went whistling down stairs, happy, and for
getful of the "tall, dark, magnificent wo
man." "I'll take them oflj Gracie," erid Marian,
as her betrothed's steps sounded further a
way; "but, if I spoke the truth from my
L heart, I should say I think I'll never put
them on again.
Gracie glanced in unappreciating curiosity
at the bride elect.
"You talk so, and still are sure you love
Mr. Grey?"
A glorious light came int her blue eyes.
"Love htm, Gracie? You never can know
how well."
''Then there's no danger that you won't
wear this it old Trinity to-morrow at mid
day," said matter-of fact Gracie.
It was a new arave, over which the flow
ers of but seven weeks had bloomed; at its
heal stood a costly tombstone, and a wreath
of immortelles was twined about it. On its
snowy white surface were carved letters that
were unspeakably precious to found hearts;
and the letters read thus: "Sacred to Win
field Grey, Aged 2$."
On the high, sweet scented turf, knelt, in
pitiful abandon, a young, iair baircd girl,
whose black robe's swept the spot where her
darling lay at rest.
She did not moan or cry, but unspoken
agony was making her slender frame quiver
with deepest emotion.
A littJ-i away. standing defiant and stormy,
was a noble, commanding woman, her sable
garments trailing to the very side of Win
field Grey's grave.
Her hard, bright eyes were watching the
fragile form that was kissing the sod so pas
sionaiely, ail tftfeonscious of the presence of
anyone, till her own name, spoken iu clear,
musical tones, startled her.
"Ms
The
She sprang to her feet, a"nd gaisJ at the
intruder.
"1 spoke to 3 ou, Marian Thorne, because
t have a right tdo so. You loved him, but
not half so much as -I did there, don't
scream, for I am telling the truth. I wor
shipped him, he hated me. Yon loved him,
he worshipped you. That's all tiro differ
ence. You were to be his wife, I was 'cast
off! cast off!'' Oh. those words wLl ring in
my ears through eternity!"
Marii.11 sank to the grouu i. covering her
face with her haals, white, stern, and pas
sionless. Ida Rossitur continued. ,
"The day he deserted me, that day I knew
a vengeance would follow him. I knew not
what it would be, but when the papers told
me he was dead, had died of heart disease
on the wedding morn, 1 felt 'twas only just.
He had crushed my heart, and I had to live,
just as you will live, and suffer till the end.
He cared not for the sacrifice I made to win
him, and now, lying cold and still under the
summer daisies, he knows nut the feaiful
saciiuee you have been compelled to endure
in giving him up."
With a reverential tenderness she bent
over Winfield Grey's grave and kissed the
weeping, widowed bride ; then departed as
she came, silently, mysteriously, leaving a
lone, in the early twilight, the utneken girl
to bear alone her burden of sorrow.
Mr. Connelly, a Missouri gentleman, who
had an engagement tii be hanged, is dispos
ed to Le querulous. On being informed
that his sentence had been commuted, he
said: "This is the d det country oh earth,
and has the poorest laws. I have been ly
ing here in prison for months. My execu
tion, for which everything has been made
ready, has been twice put off, and tiow I
atn going to the psnitentiary for life instead
of being hangel, as I wanted to be."
A lawyer in S. II., who is noted for his
profanity, aud, of course, for an irreligious"
life, being deeply engaged in an argument,
declared that rather than yield to his oppo
uent he would carry his suit to the court of
Heaven I "I guess," replied one who stood
near,' "you will have to got somebody else
to 'tend to it, for I'll be darned if they'll
let you into that ar' court."
An Etiuira farmer wrote to Horace Gree
ley for advice as to the best kind of bees to
keep, ani received an answer to the effect
that "husking bees" were the best, but iu
order to make tbem lay honey profitably he
must use a thiua nest egg, aud blanket his
bees when they are not on the nest, and feed
them bran and "middlings."
A good story is told of a railway station
agent in New Hampshire, who on being rep.
rimanded for allowing a car to be so heavily
loaded that it broke down, replied, "Mr. G.,
what do you expect a man to know for 20
a niODth?"
A young lady at Indianapolis, not very
long since, killed a skunk with butcher
knife. Her lovefcame to see her that night,
and told her he could not marry her unless
she quit using such hair oil.
New Lisbon, Ohio, has a female baseball
club. Oue of the girls recently made a

THE KIDNEYS.
Tbe Kidneys are twoin number, sitnated at the
upper part ot the loin, surrounded by fat. and
consisting of three parts, yii: the Antetior, the
Interior, and the Exterior.
The anterior absorbs Interior consists of tia
sues or verns, which serve as a deposrt for tbe
urine and convey it to the exterior. Tbe exte
rior is s eonductor also, terminating in a single
tube, and called the Ureter. The ureters are con
nected with the bladder.
Tbe bladder is composed of various coverings
or tissues, divided into parts, vis: the Upper, th
Lower, the Nervous, and the Mucous. The upfer
expels, the lower retains. Many have d-esire to
urinate without the ability, others urinate' With
out tbe ability to retain. This frequently ocean
in children.
To cure these affections, we must bring into ac
tion the muscles, which are engaged in thoiv va
rious functions. If they ore neglected .Grur er
Dropsy may ensue.
Tbe render must also be made aware, that how
ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to affeo
tbe budily health and ment'cT powers, as our flesh
and blood are supported from these sources.
S out, or KnECMATisu. Pt in occurring In the
loiks is indicative of the abova diseases They
occur is persons disposed to acid stomach and
chalky concretions.
Tbe Gravel. The gravel ensues from neglect
or improper treatment df the kidneys These or
gans being weak, tho water is not expelled from
the bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes
feverish, and sediment forms. It is from this de
posit That the stone is formed, and gravel ensues
Droprt is a collection of water in seme parts of
the body, and bears'ditTerent names, accoidiiig to
the psrts affected, vis : when generally diffused
over the body, it is called Anasarca ; when of the
Abdoicn, Ascite; when of the chest, Hydrothe
1 rax.
Treatuekt. Helmbold'a highly concentrated
compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the
best remedies for diseases of tbe bladder, kidneys,
gravel, dropsical swellings rheumatism, and gouty
affections. Under this head we have urranged
Dysurie. or difficulty and pain in passing water.
ScsAtj Secretion, or small and frequent dischar
ges of water; Strangury, or stopping of water ;
Hematuria, or bloody mine ; Guut and Rheuma
tism of the kidneys, without any change iu quan
' tity, but Increase in color, or dark water It was
always highly recommended by th late Dr
Phyeick, in these affections.
This medicine increases the power of digestion
and excites tbe absorbents into healthy exercise
by which the watvry or calcareous depositions
and all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain
and inflammation are reduced, and It is taken by
men, women and children. Diiections fur use and
diet aocompany.

medicinal preparations, and been under the treat
ment of the most eminent Physicians, experien
cing but little relief
Having seen yeur preparation extensively ad
vertised, I consulted with my family physiuinn in
regard to nsing your Extraet Bucha.
I did this because I had used all kinds of ad
vertised remrdics, and Lad found Iheiu worthless,
and vme quite injurious; in fact, I despaired ot
ever getting well, and determined to use no rem
edies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients
It ia this that prompted me 10 use your remedy
As you advertised that it was com osed of buchu,
lubtbj and juniper berries, it occurred to me anl
uiy physician as an excellent combination, and
r ith his advice, after an examination of tbe arti
cle, and consulting again with the druggist, I
concluded to try it. I commenced Its us about
eight months ago, at which time I was confined
to my room From tbe f rat bottle I was astonish
ed and gratified at the boucfioial effect, and after
csing it three weoks was able to walk out. I felt
much like writing you a full statement or my cuso
at that time, but tho ught my improvement might
only be temporary, and therefore concluded to
defer and see if it would effeot a perfect cure,
knowing then it would be of greater value to yon
and more satisfactory to me.
I am now able to report that a cur is effcoted
after using ihs remedy for five mouths.
I havo not used any now for tbreo months, and
feel aa well in all respects as I ever did.
Your Bucha being devoid ot any rnpleasant
taste and odor. nice tonta and invigorator of tbe
system, I do not mean to b without it whenever
eceuion may requir its us in ucb affections.
