Those Old-Time Songs.
Won’t you sing again those old-time songs'
We used to sing together, ‘
When lova's sweet dream to us was young,
And love inspired the song are sung,
Blast days gone now t’crever ?
They bring us back to bygone years,
Again we live them over.
Tor love survives despite our fears,
With all its wealth of joy and tiara,
And I am yet your lover.
So sing again those 011(301133,
Sc fraught with joy and sadness,
While memories long forgotten come
0! friends we loved and friends we've known
In sorrbw and in gisdneas. ‘
Yet why should memory wake the past,
0r con; call back life’s morning ?
The sun looks back. its journey done.
To tip the hills when night has coma,
_ Their dsflsoxne crests adorning.
Then sing Ogaln’the songs we sung.
They link our lives together;
No broken chords has life’s decline,
But strong. like tendrils to the vine,
That death alone can sever.

The Mysterious Legacy.
. -—
My grandfather was s sea'captain—not
. smcre climant of the title, like the water-
men of the lakes and the coast skippers
who never got out of sight of land, who,
if they got there, could never get back——
but a genuine “old salt,” trained from
boyhood under a tarpaulin hat, and as
familiar with the ‘.‘Ipaths of the sea"
as a shepherd is with those ofa sheep-
walk. Spending his life on extensive
voyages, he ’was seldom at home long
enough at a time for the salt spray to
dryon hisiweatherbeaten‘face; and there:
was ‘hardly a. port on the habitable globe ‘
in which he could not sl ke hands with
an old acquaintance, civ _ ed or savage.
Of course his history ,was crowded
with curious incidents. Most of these,
at which my childish ears tingled and
my eyes dilated. have become so faded
in memory as, to be incapable of a tolera-
ble narration. The following, however,
made a more lastng impression :- I
During the calm between the Old
French war. and the American Revo-
lution, a large ship was lying at a wharf
in the town of New York, loaded with a
valuable cargo and, ready .to sail for
Liverpool, and thence to whatever part
of the globe the chances of commerce
might dictate.
This was mygraudfather’s ship. only
waiting for her papers and a fair wind.
The papers were soon ready, and shortly
after them came a breeze. Presently
everything on board was in active mo
tion‘the casting ofi'and coiling of ropes,
the unfurling of chnvas, and the running
up of sailor boys along the rallines like
spiders on their webs ; wllile'tlle sharp,
imperative orders of the mate, and the
hearty “yehoy-ye l" of the cheerful
crewechoedfiovor the rippling waters of
the harbor, which looked in the rays of
the setting sun as if it was covered with
a cream of liquid of gold. - I
Just before the last 'plank was hauled
n, a stranger stepped hurriedly on board
and inquired forthe captain’s stateTroom.
Being conducted thither, he entered, 3
and, with a slight bow, accosted the cap-
tain, who sat writing at his desk,—- ‘ _
" You are for Litter-pool, I believe, sir?"
“Yes, sir." '
"I am in poor health. and, intending
to spend the winter in Italy, wish to get
passage in the first ship that sails for
Europe. Will you take a passenger,
captain‘i"--
“ Certainly, sir, if my accommodations
willsnit you." . . ..
“No matter- about accommodations.
I am an old sailor. and know how to ac-
commodate myself. Beside, the trim of
your ship suits my eye."
The allusion to his health attracted my
grandfather’s scrutiny, and" the 'i’nt-r‘o‘l
duction of himself as an old sailor
touched his heart. On noticing him
more particularly, he was struc‘kI‘with an
undefinable feeling or curiosity. and
sympathy at the man’s appearance.
"Tall; "straight and rather slender, he
was dressed in fine black broadcloth,I
with a sort of Spanish cloak of the sam'e
color apd quality. Atwo-edged sword,
common on shipboard at that time, and
improperly called a cutlass, was partly
covered by his cloak and hung by his
side without a sheath. His hair was
quite gray, and his manly features would
have been handsome had they not been
so emaciated as to give unpleasant
prominence to half-a~dozen deep scars
on his face. His eyes were blue and
full of expression, but restless at times,
showing a sudden abstraction. The
loosenese of one of his black gloves gave
evidence that he had lost a finger or two
from his left hand. These observations
wer‘e'ilmade by the captain, while the
stranger was looking at a beautiful sex-
tant on the table. Turning, as if startled
at his forgetfulness, he resumed,—
“Namc the price, captain, and I will .
payitito you now'." 7 " ' " "
My grandfather had already fixed the
price in his mind, and replied,—— ,.
“You‘a‘r'e'a sailor, sir, and sick. ‘ The "
accommodations of my ship, as well as
my own services, are at your free com-
mand."
The language of s. sailor's heart can-
not be misunderstood, and knows no in-
terpreter; and the stranger knew that
remIonstrsnce would be ungenerous on
his part.[; He made no reply,.but eager:-
iy extended his hand, and my grand-
father, as he shook it, thought he saw a
teal-Vin the stranger's eye. But noble
heartsnre impatient of exhibitions of
gratitude, and he quickly added,—
" I am ready to sail,'sir. Is your bag-
gage on board?"
“This is all my baggage. sir," he re-
plied, showinghim a. small black'sstchel
under his cloak.
Leading to aistate-room, the captain
left him and went on deck, and found
the...tlllip already hideaway; the: sails
filled with a. étifi‘ breeié,‘ and wharves,
warehouses and spectators fastgrowing
small in the distance. At: length, as
darkness shut in the view, the wind in-
creased to a gale; and from a gale to a
tempest; and for ten days and nights-
the noble ship which had ploughed. the
seas of every latitude, from Spitsbergen:
to New Zealand, underwent such a con-
fiipt with the elements as she had never
before encountered. _ , _
During all this time. massage: had
been confined below with an apparently
rapid consumption, .I which rough
westhér' had swiftly matured. The du.
ties of theoaptain were so, urgent during
the storm-.- that .he could- only make
snatched and hasty visits to the sick
man ; and although they could have
been spared from their quarters, aha
scald? have hoped-for Ilittle aidor. syn}:

the easy tendency" to the superstitions
peculiar to their class, and associated
his presence with thepgjils of the ship.
It would have required ‘but slight eu-

ceased 'with a suddenness that was start~
ling; the wind was entirely lulled; and
no evidence of its fury remained except
the long swelling billows of the sea44tli'e
the deep after-sighs of mighty passion.
The sudden stilling cf the temitest,
and the mournful creaking of the spars,
now audible for the first time for many
days, forced a. shade of melancholy over
my grandfather’s spirits, as he hastened
down the gangway at the call of the
stranger.
As be seated himself beside the berth,
the sick man fixed his brilliant eya
upon him, and said calmly,—— '
“Captain, Iam dying !"
“ I hope not, my dear sir ; this dread-
ful gala has weakened you. It is over
now, and you will soon be better. ”
“No, captain," be repeated, “I am
dying! The'temp’est, I know, is over;
:so is. that other tempest in my breast!
This ship has long been tossed and
sbeaten about by the fury of the waves,
but is has bpen sunshine and calm com-
pared with that tempest, captain! But
it is all over now—for I have forgiven
him—he has long been in the grave—
but I have forgiven him!"
My grandfather thought he was de.
lin'ous; but a second look at the deep
intelligence of'hisjeyes, and the 'simlinIg
conclusion. He gazed at him a moment
with mingled compassion and curiosity,
anxious to learn something of a history,
the closing scene of which was so dark
and mysterious, but was unwilling to ask
R. His‘ lock was interpreted, and the
stranger continued— I
“I told you I was ‘a sailor. 0f thirty-
-five years I_have not spent one upon
'theland. But this. wasnot my choice.
"Like a ship, captain, my supports were
‘knocked from under me, and I was
launched upon the ocean. My father
was an" English merchant in Cadiz, ex-
tensively engaged in navigation. 'He
lavishly provided for my education
Having traversed the halls of science, I
left Oxford and returned to Spain at the
age of twenty. The first year of my

chanted Country.
"In a deep island dell, shutout from
the world. where the earth was always
great and the sky blue,‘ I met one day a
beautiful-young shepherdcss—snd loved
her, I will not describe her charms,
captain, for you how been young, and a
heart that has loved needs not to be told
that to the eye of true afi‘ection its ob-
ject has no defects.
“My father learned my secret, but I
knew it not. I had a life long secret
afterward which he never learned. He
came to me one morning, smiled, and
said,—
“My son, do you want to go to
Cuba?’
“I eagerly answered in the afiirma-
tive; for it had been a cherished but
hitherto forbidden passion with me to
travel.
“ ‘ One of my vessels sails tomorrow]
he said, ' and you may go.’ .
“Thieshort interval ,allowed me no
time to bid farewell to my shepherdess,
who was ,fifty miles distant, nor even to
inform her of my departure. But I
thought, ‘will soon be back,’ and many
other cbnsolatiohs I whispered to my
my heart the next day while bounding
over the Atlantic.
“The ship arrived in good time at
Havana, discharged her cargo, reloaded,
and sailed for—Calcutta! I was a
prisoner on my father’s ship, and for
five long years I was kept from home—
as if all the waters of the ocean could
wash out my love! ’
,j“I escaped at length from the prison
ship, while lying athio; and took pas-
sa'gein a French bulk for the Guadal-
quiycr. . No. circumnavigation of the
globe was ever so long as that voyage.
Istrained my eyes every day watching
for Gibraltar. which I' knew was
thousands of miles ofi‘ ; and every night
I dreamed of mountain rivu‘leis. snow-
Arriving at last atSeville, I hastened
aver the Nevada, and sought the sunny
dell where my affections had long nestled,
and there found that the idol of my
heart was the wife of an Andalusian
shepherd.~ She had been told that I
had deserted ller,’and afterward that I
was dead. I did not weep, for my heart
was turned to stone. ‘My father,‘ said
I, ‘ehall never know of his victory.‘
I did not go to see him ; it was wicked,
I know, but, burning with the spirit of
revenge, I turned again to the sea, and
never saw him more.
' “I am faint, captain, and cannot pro~
long my tale. In six months I_ was
master of a fast sailing vessel—you have
seen the vessel, captain, but never in
port, and I have often seen you, and
knew your name twenty years ago. But
no matter about that. My father con-
tinued to freight his ships and send
them to different parts of the world—
but he never knew that I superintended
. a large part of {his business, ’ and that
many of his ”cargoes found a sale in
ports to whicliithcy had never besn‘bon-
signed. His agents sometimes failed to
report. ' .
“I have said enough, captain. Before
to-morrow's sun sets, I shall be in the '
caverns of the deep. I haves fortune in
the Bank of England, but with it is deposi-
ted a. will, and; theorphan son of Ins. is

Morning dawned, but the. stranger’s
eyes did not open upon it; they were
closed forever. In the afternoon the
solemn burial service was performed,
and the shrouded body of the pirate

A FARM FUR BREEDING GEES”.
The only goose ranch‘that is, a farm
devoted to the breeding and care of
geese—tin this country is owned and
operated by Philadelphians. The farm
is located on the eastern shore of Vii:-
ginia, and covers nearly 3,000 acres,
over which the feathered occupants are
free to roam. In England there are a
number of such farms, some of them,
having as high as 1,000 geese. The
American one is of much larger pro-
portions, as its flocks number .in the
neighborhood 'of 5,000 birds.
In certain textile branches of trade
the down and feathers of geese are the
main raw materials. The manufacture
of finequilts and the preparation of
certain articles of dress utilize the down,
and in cheaper grades. of goods the
younger and softer-I feathers are used in
the way a: fidfiltél‘dfibn- The large and
strong feathersof the fails and wings go
mainly into the quill pens used by
' " IIMZjefiigi-Ossers;:lawyers, clergy-
":authors, and others. These are
toojoughfor’much use. in the textile
prédilctions noted above. . .
The American‘ farm is devoted ex-
clusively to producing the raw materials

species-of g'eés‘e'aro land, all ofi'jthem
being, however, of, American lineage.

About every "2‘: ‘weeksztthe plucking

tail being left intact- It requires nearly
100 average geese to furnish a pound or
down, though‘th’e smaller feathers, which
are also taken, weigh much heavier.
These feathers, however, form an entire-
ly'scparate grade of produc‘t’from the
valuable down.
.The average life of a goose'is said to
be about forty years, and they produce
from six to ten eggs per unnum, a large
pinportion of which are' hatched. A
bird batched in February is in condi-
lion for plucking the following'August,
and so on thereafter every six or eight
weeks. The feathers are packed in
sacks and sent to the Philadelphia fac-
tory, where they are trimmed, washed,
steamed, and otherwise prepared for
their ultimate uses. In adulterating
the fluffy down for the cheaper grades
of goods the feathers are chopped up
fine and then mingled with. the more
valuable material. 80 practiced are
some manufacturers that it requires an
expert 'to distinguish between the
grades; The local factory, which is the
only one of prominence in the country,
makes nothing but the ' finer goods.
Herétofore the down and feathers used
.in American markets have been import-
ed. .
THE ROLLER SKATING CKAZE
Acorrespondent writes: “Have you
stopped to consider what roller skating
is doing for the people? Have you
thought how many men, while perhaps
not making fortunes, are making com-
fortable livings through roller skating ?
Hundreds of men are employed making
skates; agents and drummers find
profitable and easy business in dispos-
ingof them; rink proprietors find their
purscflfull, while they give employment
to carpenters who would otherwise be
idle} Then there are constantly'era-
played managers, instructors, men in
cloak department, ticketIOffiee,‘ skate
room and musicians, in all employing
about twenty menin‘one rink. Doctors

come in for abigehare, as the rink's
' refreshment room supplies skaters
with audio: 1 . and soft drinks; the
nearest saloon comes in for a big share;
papers gets'some for advertising, the
printers"for‘ tickets of admission; the
shoemakers find buisness brisker by the
skaters always wanting nice shoes; no
suchxattention toshoes for years, the
skaters must have the very finest, and
as small as possible, consequently they
last a very short time, which is all the
better for business ; the hardware, gas
and coal men likewise derive a benefit.
The only one that is out of pocket is
the young man whose best girl insists
on going every night. Roller skates
in some ways resemble women; they
are very‘deceptive, they are very iiitic-
ing and fascinating, they make the
money fly, they make you happy, they
make you miserable, batonce learn to
control them and ‘they are just too ex-
quisitely lovely for anything.‘ Now if
the rink proprietors would only go into

"You would think that a cross-eyed
per-son would oral-come his sensitiveness"
said an occulist, “but he seldom does.
He, broods over it. It grows on him.
He imagines that every one he meets
thinks as much about it as he does,
and life often looses all attraction for
him. Did you :aver notice a cross-eyed
man walk? No? I can tell one as far as
I can see him. It imparts to his gait a
certain movement peculiar to the whole
class of cross-eyed péople. But it is
not altogether bashfnlness which causes
him to avoid looking a person squarely
in the face. Ifhe retained the power
of sight in each oi“ his crooked eyes, as
is often the case, it would do him no
good to look the ordinary way. He
would .be very likely to miss the object
altogether. The lines of his vision
would probably 'croSsa foot or, so before
the object was fully comprehended, and
all he wOuld see would be the faint and
and shadowyoutlincs of-s. pair of cars
or the. rim of a hat. The place where
the face ought to be wOuld be a dismal
blank. Many bright features are ruined
by this fearful misfortune. Some
sensitive victims never pluck up cour-
age enough to marry. They often
become selfish nlisanthropcs, grow
stingy and leave a fortune for a hord of
straight-eyed relatives who totally
ignored them while they were alive, to
fight over. Others, with the natural
yearning for the love and sympathy
which are almost universally denied
cross-eyed men, take what they can get
in the matrimonial market. They spring
at the very first chance which offers.
Thus often a soleful, but crossed-eyed
sesthote finds himself joined to a loving
but unsympathetic helpmeet, whose
ambition never rises above the kitchen
or the laundry. He looses his hepes,
descends to the level of his mate, and
what might have been a talented career
is ended On a large. box in front of the
cornergrocery in retailing neighborhood
gossip. Occasionally you find a ,man'
with sufiicient strength of mind to live
down the malign cfi‘ects of strsbismus
and come out a viotor.’ \Vllen once a
man has overcome his difficulties he
becomes as bold as a sewing-machine
agent. When he is courageous enough
to look a woman obliquely in the face
without stammeriug an apology f0r
having been born he can fairly be said
to be superior to his misfortune. Such
a man would make a heroic soldier.
Unfortunately there are few who can do
this. The ordinary man melts under
the affliction like a (sake of ice. in a July
sun.

THE BANK on ENGLAND.
A writer in Chamber’s Journal, after
describing the immense treasures stored
in vaults of the Bank of England, says:
One of the first reflections that strike
an outsider permitted to inspect the re-
pository of so much treasure is," “Can
all. this wealth be safe?” These heaps
of precious metal, these piles of still
more precious notes, are handled by the
officers in such an easy-going matter-of-
course way, that one would almost fancy
a few thousand would scarcely be
missed; and that a dishonest person
.had only to walk in and help himself to
aemany sovereigns or hundred pound
notes as his pockets could accommodate.
Such, however, is very far from being
the case. The safeguards against’rob-
bery, either by force or fraud, are many
and elaborate. At night the bank is
guarded to all accessible puintsby an'
ample military force, which would no
doubt give a. good account of Iany intru-
der rash .enough to attempt {to gain an
entrance. In the event of attack from
without, there are sliding galleries which
can be thrust out from the roof, and
which would enable a body of sharp
shooters to rake the streets in all direct-
101111‘3cw people are aware that the Bank
of England contains within its walls a
graveyard, but. such is nevertheless the
fact. The Gordon riots in 1780, during
which the bank was attacked by a mob,
called attention to the necessity for
drengthening its defences. Competent
authorities advised that an adjoining
church, rejoicing in the appropriate
name of St. Christopher-le-Stocks, was
in a military sense'a source of danger,
and accordingly an act of Parliament
was passed to‘enable the directors to
purchase the church and its appurten-
ances. The oldIchurchysrd, tastefully
laid out, now fOrms what is known as
the bank. “garden,“ the handsome
"court {room " or “bank parlor abutt-
ing on one of its sides. There is a
magnificent lime-tree, one of the largest
in London, in the centre of the garden,
and tradition states that under this tree
aformer clerk of the bank. eight feet
high. lies buried. -
A HARD STRUGGLE.
A private detective says that- the
principal cause of dishonesty among shop
girls is the desire to keép up appearances,
They like to make a show on the streets
and in the ballroom. That’e'where most
of my work is done. I I never go near
the stores. A few lines of memorands
and a few_nsmes are sent to me by the
superintendent and I go to work. I meet
the shop-girl on the street, flirt with her
and accompany her home. I dance
with her at public balls, I .have my eye
on her at the theatre, I get acquainted
with the young men she keeps company
with and when necessary procure an
introduction to her. In a short time I
am familiar with her habits of life.
Whatever way she may choose to in-
crease her income is nothing to me so
long as she does not wrong herself, and
my employer. Of course, if her conduct
becomes notorious I make suggestions
'to the superintendent, but my special
business is to look for stolen goods.
Sometimes a girl will keep an article at
home amonth before she will dare to
wear-itin the street orat an evening's
entertainment. I know whether she
bought it at the store or not, because
the" girleiusually purchase from their
employers at a discount and in certain
instanccsa record of their purchases is
kept. I watched for a handsome dress-
ingcsse that~had been missing from a
. girl's counter for at least five months. I
immediately went with her to her room,
but couldn'tfind it. Finally I discovered
it on a booth table in a church fair, and
discovered that she was the donor. The
superintendent Of the store she worked
in taxed her with the theft, she con-
fessed and was summarily discharged.
That’s only one of a hundred instances.
Of course petty peculstions, such as in
.glovee, stockings, hairpins and in such
things, I don’t intend to keep track of.

An American who. recently visited the
River Jordan sayg he never saw in this
country a stream so vile. It is loss than
eighty feet wide, less than ten feet deep,
and as dirty ascan be. , Its current is as
swift as a mill-race. lHe stood about
half an hour on “Jordan’s stormy
banks," and saw all he cared to of it.
The banks arecallé'd‘I f'stormy " because

patrick was one day separatedztdmnhis‘
companions while pursuing gatn'cuint-tliox
wilderness, and . was chased :by . a 'war:-:
party of Indians. There was not-tho
smalEst chance of escape forjhim; but
the young hunter made a feint of turn-
ing away, in order, if possible, to gain
time. He happened to know that the
savages, who as yet were little acquaint-
ed with the use of fire-arms, had several
times, when they had taken white
prisoners, put the muzzles of their rifles
close to their breasts and fired them, by
way of experiment to see what would
come of it. H6 therefore thought it
prudent to extract the bullet from his,
and then continued his flight. The
Indians followed, and very soon over-
took him. They disarmed him, and
tied him to a tree. One of the savages. -
who, it appeared, understood how. to
pull a trigger, then seized the “rifle,
placed himself a' few paces in front. of
the owner of it, took aim. at his breast
and fired; but when the Indians looked
eagerly through the smoke towards
where Fitzpatrick stood they saw that
he was safe and sound in his place.
Quietly the hunter took out of his
pocket the bullet, which he had pre-
viously placed there, and tossed it to
his enemies, who were all amazement.
They declared that he had arrested the
bulletin its flight, and was a wonder-
working conjurer; and, what was more.
that some great iiiislortune would most
likely befall the tribe if they did not set
him free. They therefore cut his bonds
and made ofi‘ as fast as passable, leaving
Fitzpatrick to go where be pleased.

MANUFACTURING CRIPPPLES.
Some horrible" disclosures just made
at Chalons, in France-ought to serve to
remind those with are in the habit of
bestowing charity on child-beggars in
the sn-eetsthat too frequently they are,
in point of fact, giving money to and
encouraging infémous. characters, who .
martyrize the helpless children in their
power. The atténtion of the police at
Chslons was lately attracted by a little
boy with amend; and another child, a
cripple, wheeling himself about in a
small wooden box. Both children
_ appeared so utterly miserable and pain-
strickeu that thde were taken toIthe
station, where they told a sad story of.
suffering. About two years ago, it
transpired, the boys, who are cousins,
aged respectfully 8 and ,10, were living
with their parents at Barclona. While
retm'niug from school together they
were. accosted by a. man and woman,
who enticed them to the‘ railway station
and brought. them to Pei-pignan. There,
and subsequently at Chalons, one of
the boys was made one-armed, the other
a cripple, the limbs it was requisite to
suppress beingbent and straped up in
the most cruel manner. After the time
the lad, who wheeled himself about in
the box, was out about the loins with a
knife, corrosive liquid being poured on.
to his wounds. His legs were further
attenuated by ropes tightly wound
round them; in short, for upwards of
two months the little martyrs were
operated upon ddily and success having
attended the horrible process, I they
were sent out to beg in the streets of
various French towns. Happily, the
man and woman who tortured them
have been arrested, and will be tried for
their inhuman offence.
l'lsnnm’fax's LUCK.
In Scotland they have a urn-ions way
of fishing that takes the medal for the
"ducted. The fisherman, we will,,say,
is.after pike. Selecting a. big goose
from ;hia' barnyard. or half-a-dozen
geese, as the case may be, he tiés a
baited hookand line about five feet long
to their feet, and on reaching the water
ttu-ns them in. The birds, swim-rout.
and the fisherman lights his pipe and
sits down. In a few minutes a fish sees
thersit and seizes it, giving the goose
a good pull. The bird starts for shops
at full tilt, {frightened half to death,
dragging the fish upon the bank, where
it is unhooked. The line being rebaited
the feathered fisherman is again sent out
to tryits luck. A flock of geese can
make quite a haul in the course of the
day, the human fisherman having only
to take ofi‘:the game and bait the hooks,
the pullingin and booking being done
by the birds.

'l'AUN'l‘ON. MASS.
Dr. D. Kennedy, Random, .\'. 1'. :
DEAR Sm: I am an malneer on the Old Colony
Railroad, and run the Fall River boat train between
Fall River and Lowell, residing in Tasman. For
ten years I sulfered everything but death from
dyspepsia. Often i had such binding sick head-
aches that I could scarcely see. I- think this was
due am y to irregular habits of eating, and partly
to 1 re jar of the engine. Sometimes my head
would snap like neuralgi and again the. pain
would settle in my eyes. wh ch would feel as big as
a man’s lists. My breath was very offensive, and
.my food soured as soon as it. entered my stomach.
In fact my stomach felt as though it. were a great
raw and sore surface, and what agony it gave per-
ha 5 you can imagine.
a the summer and fall of 1876 when we had the
heavy centennil travel, the constant or brought
on acute attacks nearly every week an I thought
i should have to leave the road. But i Kept. at
work until the next spring, when I grew so much
worse that 1 could virtually eat nothing, and con-
cluded that my labor, and my life too, were about
over.
Remember that I had tried every medicine I
heardof, and had been treated b some of the best
physicians in 'i'auntou and Lowe 1. At this critical
time Dr. DAVID KENNEDY’S F VORl'l‘E Rim-
EDY was recommended to me. was new to me,
and with my experience of medicines, you can
easiiy'forg'lve me saying that I had not a particle
cl faith in it. '
i had taken it but a few days when I began to
get better. The raw and sore feeling left my
stomach, and the snapping pains left my head,
and soon I was all right, and have been ever since.
it is the only thing that ever did me the least good,
and it drove every ache, pain and discomfort com-
ietely out of my body. Now I keep Kennedy's
‘avorite Remedy with me on my engine, and it
goes wherever 1 $3.1 . .
Why, I believe avorite Remedy wril cure any-
thing. One night, a. while ago. John Layton, an
engineer who runs the mainline boat train from
Boston,~came on my e as sick-as death. He was
worn out with work, in a high fever, and was so
nervous he almost broke down crying. “Nonsense
John," 1 said, ”cheer up, i'ye gotaomethmg on my
engine that will set you up in a Jilly." I took out
my bottle of Favorite Remedy, lifted his head and
gave him a good dose. He went to bed. Twu
an s after I saw him looking healthy as s buther.
“ an," he said, “what was that stuff you gave me
the other night ‘2" “it was Dr. David Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy, Rondout.N. Y.." said 1. “Well,
I don’t care whose Remedy it Is, it’s the thing for
a man on the railroad." So say we all.

S. B. Alumna—Dear Slr: For over twent years
I have been troubled with sick headache, eving
an attack every two weeks which confined me to
my bed for two or three days each time. and l have
been unable to find anythln‘athat would help me
until I tried Dr. Lesllea S . iPreacription about
a year ago; since then 1 ave had but one attack.
and that was caused by overwork and anxiety over
the sickness of my daughter. I can therefore
heartily recommend it to all afflicted with head-
ache. Yours sincesely,
Cusarorrs Pam.
