THREE SONGS OF LOVE.
Sing no and song 'of bygono days
Now veiled in memory's tearful haze;
I would forget the hopes and feara
That filled with pain the formor years;
Those flowers are dead, thoso suns have set,
Those joys have changed to vague regret,
The love I crave along life's way
Is not the love of yesterday.
Sing no blithe song of time and tido
That in sotne heavenly sphere abide;
Paint no fair scene of coming bliss
In tender look, hand clasp, and kiss;
Those words sound vain in ears like mine;
Suns may not rise, stars fall to shine,
Birds may not sing in boughs above—
Oh, sing not of to-morrow's love.
Sing me a song, a happy song,
Full voiced, with cadence rich and strong;
Gather no notes from olden themes,
Not from the mystic land of dreams;
But sing in ringing rune and rhyme
The rapture of the present time,
Go, past and future—sing, I pray,
Of love that lives and loves to-day.
—Clarence Urmy, in Munsey's Magazine.
AT THE PIT'S MOUTEL
#H I I wur a fool to
hope or think bio a
thing. There be aui
tker man tka lovest;
n yoonger man, a bet
ther man nor me. It
be Will Benson. Dun
uut answer, lass, I
know it. Well, forgi' me what a'
said. Goodby, Jessie, and God bless
thee, lass, God bless thee?' 1
Thus Steven Armstrong, as ho
turned away from the cottage where
Jessie MacDavitt lived, that cottage
with the gay flowers around its porch
that made the one bright patch of
brightness in this dismal, dust-be
grimed country side, blackened every
where by ooal, saddened by the lives
of men whose destiny had cast to delvo
and burrow benoath the fair earth
that otller men might grow rich.
But, somehow, to-day Stove Arm
strong could see no brightness in any
thing. He had been a fool, and juo
mistake, this great, stalwart, broad
shouldered miuer. He was well past
forty; his hair becoming gray, und
sparse on top, quite old to her.
He had been a bachelor all those
years. Ho might have known it was
sheer madness now to lavish all the
wealth of his great manly heart on
pretty, winsome Jessie. She did not
want an old fogy like him.
At first she seemed to bear his talo
with gentle tenderness and pity. Bad,
indeed, must bo the woman whoso
heart remains untouched by tho lovo
of a truo and honest man. Then a
word or two sho dropped almost un
oonsoiously had revealed the truth.
Of course, Will Benson was the man.
Ho had been a blind fool not to have
seen it long ago. Will was twenty
years younger than himself. On Sun
days Will was quite a master (tho
Americanism had grown into common
use even here). Will was just the lad
to please the girl's fancy.
And so, having settled that matter
in his own mind, Armstrong walked
slowly and sadly away about his busi
ness.
It was Saturday njght. Bar and
parlor of the Miners' Arms were
crowded with men. Hero tho hard
earned money flew merrily; money
whioh should have gone to wife and
weans at home —money which might
have been as a tower of strength in
fighting the battles that labor and
poverty always have to fight.
Will Bonson was there in the midst
of a noisy throng, reeking of beer,
spirits and rank tobacco. He had had
a great deal too muob to drink already.
Suddenly some one laid a hand upon
his arm. He turned tipsily, nnd en
countered tho serious, steadfast gozo
of Steven Armstrong, who was not
drunk, and hod only just entered the
publio house.
"Duunot tak' ony moor," the latter
whisperod, gently, but firmly.
"Who told thee to interfere, Maister
Preacher?"
"No one. I ask thee not to, for t'
sake o' girl who loves thee."
"Did she tell thee to coom pryiu'
aftherme?"
"Tha knowost betthcr no that. I
ask thee for her sake, and fur tha own
good. I ask thee not t' spend all t'
neet hero. Think o' her who'st o' be
tha wife. These chaps do thee no
good. They'll mak' thee spend tha
brass, and when 'tis all gone, they'll
only laugh at thee."
"Shew mo t' mou as'll laught at
mel Ye daren't! It's tha thyself as
are doin' it. Come outside, then, and
we'll see who's t' best mon!"
"1 winua fight wi' thee—and cer
tainly not now," Armstrong answered,
slowly and with dignity ; it was nut
the retraction of a coward. His well
meant remonstrnnoes had proved
worse than useless; nnd from that
time those two men felt eaoh other to
be rivals.
Horror and consternation are spread
ing far and wide through tho grimy
Lancashire town. A terrible ex
plosion has just been heard. They
know only too well what that moans ;
and the poor women, both young and
old, aro rushing wild and terror
stricken to the pit's mouth.
"Down in the 'workings' the excite
ment is at its height. Men aro run
ning to the bottom of the shait, run
ning for their lives; for the noxious
after-damp is choking them, aud they
know only too well that many of them
are destined never to see the light ol
day again. The cage is going up and
down again as quickly us may be, but
it will only hold a limited number.
They must patiently wait for their
turn, and that turn may mean life or
death.
"There be room for one moor," the
miners shout. "Come along, Steve
Armstrong; it be tha turn."
Bqt he does not move.
"No," he answers; "I bo old a'
alone. Here's a yoong fellow as a
gotten a milker; let un go instead
this time."
It was Will Bonson who stood by his
side.
"You, Armstrong 1 You mak'room
for me !" he exclaimed.
"What dost supposo s'd do? A' fight
fair—when a' want to fight."
"You do this for ma sake?"
"Not for thine, mon; for hers!
Go!"
The words were few —there was no
time for more—but they had a rough
heroio dignity about them. Benson
stepped into the cage without another
word; tho signal was given and they
went up toward tho light and air
above.
From thoso about the pit's mouth
a ringing cheer arose as the cage
renched the surfaco. They knew that
so many, at loast, of their mates were
safe, and some of the women went
away with hearts full of joy and thank
fulness. Tho word went quickly round
that Steve Armstrong had sent up
Will Benson instead of himself. Trotty
Jessie MacDavitt was there. When she
heard the whisper she understood. A
woman's instinct is much the same af
ter all, whether Bke bo a priuooss or
only a rough miner's lass. Benson
came toward her, but sko seomed
hardly to notice him. Sho was wait
ing for some one else.
The cage was let down again. Borne
anxious minutes followed that seemed
like hours. Once more it appeared
with its load of men, Jessie pressed
eagerly forward. Groat heavens I he
whom she sought was not there! Sev
eral voices asked after him—Jossie
dared not trust herself to do so—and
then came the appnliing answor:
"Choke damp ha' taken him, and
bit wall fallen in owor him I"
Suddenly a woman's voice rang out
—Jessie MacDnvitt's:
"Tkon he be i' danger—dying—
dead mayhap I He gave his life for
one o'ye. Aren't ye men? Aro none
o' ye goin' to save un? Tkon I wull I"
Sho pressed forward toward the pit,
but a dozen strong arms restrained
her, and ouo old follow said :
"Keep back, lass I It'll be death to
go down there for nigh an hour yet.
This be no place for women fowk."
She heeded not, and breaking away
from them, entered the cage. Two]or
three men followed her, ashamed to
think that a girl should bo braver
than they; and down they went, from
the light into the darkness; down
aipong tho noxious, deadly gasses—
down to the unknown!
Along, longtimo nowolapsed, or so
it seemed to the anxious watchers.
Two or three cages full of miners came
up, but they were not among them.
Great heavens I was it possible that all
had perished in the heroic attempt?
Tho news that Jessie hod gono be
low reached her mother; and Mrs.
MacDavitt—with her sloeves tucked
up, fresh from the wash tub, her
cheeks pale as death, her eyes stream
ing—rushed madly to the spot.
Even at that moment tho cago was
oomiug up again. A deafening cheer
rang out, loud and long, upou tho
murky air. It was thoy—they at last,
thank God I But, were thoy alive?
Two innnimute forms wcro lying down
upon tho black, dusty bank—tho forms
of Jessie MacDavitt and Btoven Arm
strong.
Jessie MacDavitt sat alono, nt work,
in the littlo front parlor of mother's
oottage. She was [quite well again
now, but hor recovery from the oil'ects
of hor adventure in the mino has been
alow and painful.
There was a knock at the door. She
called out: "Corno in!" in swoet,
cheery tones. It was Steven Arm
strong who entered the apartment.
Slio looked up, surprised; and colored
up to her very brow as she rose to
greet him. She had not soen him since
that fearful day; perhaps this was tho
reason of her confusion. Ho did not
wear his working, nor yot his
"shiftiu' " clothes, but was liabitod in
a tweed suit and wide awake, liow
brave and noble he looked, albeit a
triile pale just now !
"Mr. Armstrong!" she said, "I am
glad to see you fettle again. I haven't
seen you since—"
"Not since then—no ; it wur churlish
o' mo not to como an' thank theo —
only—only thore bo nao thanks possi
ble for sio things as that. Oh, Jessie,
why didst do it; why didst risk tha
life?"
"ilecause you gave your chanco o'
life to him," sho answered simply, but
with an unsteady tremor in hor voice.
"Now I ha' come to bid thee goodby,"
Armstrong said, like a man who has
an unpleasant duty to perform and
wants to get it over quickly. "A* be
goin' away."
"Goin' away!" she echoed, "Whecr
to?"
"Iteet away—foriver. To America
or Australy—A' hardly know where
yet. A'be tired o't'life here. But re
member. if there be ivver onything I
eon.do for thee, a' wull. 'Tha shalt
know whore I go to, and if tha should
ivver want a friend or a helpin' hond
n'll come to thee if 'twere half across
t'world I If a han't said mooch, re
member a' know that a' can nivver
hope to pay ma' debt to thee 1"
"Oh, dunnot talk liko that; please
dunnot talk about it—l—l hadn't an
idea yon were thinkiu' o'goin' away—
it's—ye've took me so sudden like—l
—dunnot know what to say."
"Say, Jess, ma lass I Just say:
'Good-bv, and God bless thee, Stevo
Armstrong,'or soom Bio words as a'il
bo ablo to tak' wi' me, an' cherish i'
memory o' thee when o' be far.away."
"I'll say 'God bless thee, fcitevo
Armstrong,' wi' all ma heart, but not
'good-bv!'" Jessie said, in a voico
teat was even more unsteady with
emotion than before.
"Ah, dunnot it mun be, I say—tha
I would uot torture me? '
"Wouldn't tlia stay, Stevo, if a'
were to ask ye?"
"There's naething I wouldna do that
you bid me—excep' that—oxcep' that,
why, a' be goin' away fro' thee 1"
"Fro' me?"
"Surely, a' needna toll thee all
ower again. A' wish thoe an' tha hus
band well wi' all ma heart—but I
canna stay I"
"Ye said just now ye'd do anything
for me," Jessie answered, clasping her
hands, and tho bright color mantled
in her cheek hotter and rodder than
ever—such a coy, pretty blußh I They
were hard words for a girl to speak ;
but she had made up her mind all at
once, and felt impelled to go on. "Yo
said yo nivver could hope to repayjyer
debt to me. Suppose I show ye t'
way? Stay here for ma sake, an'—
dunnot ye understand ? Dunnot mak'
me havo to say ony moor—"
"What madness is this? And t' mon
tha'rt plighted to ?"
"We are na plighted now. Hobe
gono root away. Haven't yo heerd?"
"No; I hnv' na been mooch among
t' chaps o' late."
"It was a small thing that parted
us; something I asked un to givo up
for ma sake—only t' drink. But ho
said no; no lass should ivver mak' a
milk sop o' him. Then a' earn' to oom
paro ye both togitbor; he, who
wouldn't even do that mooch; you,
who would ha' given yer very lifo for
ma' sake. A' think t' were at t' Pit
Mouth t' thought first cam' to me. A'
weighed both i' scnles and then a'
knew which way ma heart had gone!"
And that was where she nestled now
her pretty head ; to that bravo heart
which was to bo her home forovermoro.

We Have Good Material lor Cavalry.
Tho foreign-born citizens who havo
been engaged as riding instructors at
tho various riding schools in and
around Now York and elsowhero havo
not been hesitant in their disparaging
remarks on the American cavalry.
Whilo tho Uuitod States does not
boast of a lorgo standing army, wo
havo no hesitancy in saying that tho
few regiments of cavalry who havo
seen service on the plains will not only
comparo favorably with tho mounted
men of other Nations, but that for tho
particular kind of work to which they
have been trained they are without
equals in the world. AVe havo had no
reason to keep men in training; but
if put to tho test wo could certainly
raise a magnificent nrrny in a very
short time. Unliko tho early days of
the recent rebellion, wo would havo
plenty of horsemen to call upon.
AVlicreas in earlier days equestrian
ism was unknown, comparatively
spoaking, it has in latter days beoomo
so general as a menus of exercise,
recreation, and health that old nnd
young are fairly good riders. Tho
various sports of polo, bunting, and
racftig bavo served to stimulato inter
est in equitation. Tho militia troops
formed throughout tho country, no
tably Squadron A, of New York, aro
also factors.
All of these sources would be drawn
upon for oflicers rathor than for pri
vate soldiers. They do not represent
a largo number in comparison with
tho ioroo necessary to oopo with a foe ;
i but they would cortainly prove a val
| liable nucleus on whicli to build.

(Ity Vegetable (.aniens Obnoxious.
A movement is on foot in tho Har
lem section of the city to compel tho
vegetable gardeners to locate else
where. There are, it is estimated,
about a hundred acre 3 of land in city
lots occupied by small gardeners, and
! the residents suy they arc a nuisance,
especially at this tirao of the year.
They don't object to the growing of
of potatoes, onions, lettuco and tur
nips, nor do they object to tho open
space in frort of their windows, and
the green of tho growing crops in tho
summer time is very pleasont to the eye,
but just at thjs time of tho year the
land is bciug prepared fur next sea

THE DRUG- CLERK'S STORY,
He Talks of ITeiuluclies and Nervousness
and Gives a Cure for Both.
From the Evening News, Newark, N. J.
It was tlio drug clork's turn to toll a story
of ono of his experiences, and the reporter,
expecting something good, as usual, settled
himself comfortably in a chair prepared to
givo his undivided attention to the spoakor.
The latter was Henry Maior. who rosidos with
his parents on Acqueduct Street, Newark,
N. J., and who hands out medicine ovor the
couutor of Dr. Andrew F. Bukhardt's drug
Store at 271 Orange Street, this city.
"Perhaps I can do nothing better," he be
gan, "than to toll you the secret of my good
health. It Is a story that I have told to .
many, recontly, and as it resulted in good \
in each case, it may be worth your whilo to
listen to it. To begin with, I was not always 1
strong and robust, as 1 am now. Long hours
of work and hard study had left rao in a j
wretched condition. Frightful, lingering .
headaches found me a ready victim, and at
times I was so nervous that tho dropping of 1
a pin would cause me to give a violent start, *
and then I would bo seized with a fit of £
trembling that was, to put it mildly, exceed- (
ingly bothersome. Well, I began to doctor t
myself. Now I flatter myself that I know j
something of medicine; but with all my j
knowledge, I could find nothing that would
cure those terrible headaches or put an end
to ray extreme nervousness. Whon I picked
un a bottle my hand would shako as though
1 had tho chills, and if it was a powder that
I was handling 1 stood a good chance of
sprinkling it all ovor these black trousers.
Things wont from ba 1 to worse, and I soon
realized that a mnnof my physical condition
had bettor not attempt to mix any medicine. <
"'Try a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills,'
paid Dr. liurkhardt, one day; ami as you ,
know tho doctor's advice is always wortn
following, I got tho Pink Pills aud began to
take thorn. Aladdin's lamp never performed j 1
tho wonders of those pills. Would you believe j
it? Before I had taken tho contents of one ' j
box my headache began to give mo a day off
occasionally, aud soon it left mo entirely.
How about my norvousnoss? Well, the pills
put an end to that with almost startling
abruptness. You see I know enough about
the business to appreciate tho importance of
following tho prescribing physicians' direc
tions, and by paying strict attention to those
given by Dr. Williams with each box of his
Pink Pills, 1 was soon another fellow. Look
at me now! A picture of health, eh? Well,
that is what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will
do for a man, or a woman eithor. See, I
can hold this glass of water out now without
spilling a drop, but 1 couldn't do that two
mouths ago and—
"What is it. mu'in?" ho asked as a neatly
drossod woman came up to the counter. "A
box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills," "Yes,
tna'm, ilftv cents, please. Thank you."
"These Pink Pills are great things," said
Mr. Maier as ho turned to tho reporter again,
and I ho latter, after all ho had heard, thought
so too.

I York City,
With a better understanding- of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper ef
forts —gentle efforts —pleasant efforts--
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constinated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to note when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system* is regular, then laxa
tives or other remedies arc not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
I then one should have the best, and with
| the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
! Figs stands highest and is most largely
j used and gives most general satisfaction.

When interviewed at the time of a

"Ever since I was in the army, whera
I contracted indigestion and dyspep
sia from eating "hard tack and sow
belly," I have suffered much from
those and kindred ailments. A eoni
of mino who clerks for J. N. Harter
in a drug store at Wlntlnld, Kansas,
told rao while home on a visit, over
year ago, to get a box of Ripans
Tabu lee and take them. I did, and
in a very short time I was benefited,
and by tho time they were half gone
I was well, and since then I have felt
hotter, ate moro and rollßhod it bot
terthanat any time since tho war,
and ain doing moro work now than
I over expected to do again. I toll
you, tlioy are tho greatest modicino
for a fellow's stomaoh I over saw.
This box is for a neighbor of mlna
out by me in tho country. We al
ways have them ut home, and I
never hesitate to recommend them
when a fellow complains about his
stomach hurling him.
