On the evening of January 17th Mr. and Mrs. Nowhard were sittingin their hotel at Hot like whoti a gentleman of slim l.uild and suave address knorked at the door and asked to lie furnished witli Mipper and bed. Ho engaged them in conversation and then claimed to be one of thc'Dr. Dariln" on a tour. He gave a glowing account of a me.! iciuo lie had discovered, n blood remedy which he regarded ns a veritable elixir of life. At their earnest solicitation he maitc Mr. and Mr-. Nowhml a gallon of the med icine at $XoO an ounce ami then h ft. Thev took it regularly for five days before di-con- . tinning its use, and by that time were r, -duood to a pitiable condition.

II Inckloy in appreciation of his story entitled CI.AKA l.Hl-:. lu a quaint old town by the eastern .sea. Full litany long years ago, There lived a maid who was loved by me. The beuutiltil, bright-eved, Clara Belle Leo, Willi a throat like the driven snow. We loved with a childish love, we two, In theipiaint old town by tho sea; We puddled and played In the waters bluo, And I swore by their waves that I'd over bo true, To my fair-faced Clara Belle Lee. Tho Nantucket boys all envied me, Asthey thought of my happy lot; They cursed and sworo in that town by tho son, That they'd break my match with Clara Belle Leo, But we siniled at their wicked plot. There was never a pair that loved so true, 1 11 that quaint old town by the sea; Our joy was plenty, our quarrels few, Our faith was strong, but our love was new, Mine ami my Clara Hullo Lee. But the delii'-'o came, it was forty-nine, And It swept our castles down ; It wrecked our hopes, sweet Clara's and mine, It snapped the threads of my love-pun lino That I'd wove in thatquaintold town. The favor throbbed in my boyish brain That wondrous fever of gold ; And parting came, with Its tears and pain, Tho thought that we may not meet again, Came on, with its grief untold. But I turned my back on tho ancient town, With its mystical winding streets, And looked to the west whero the sun goes down. Where tho evening cloud wears a lustrous crown, And the sky ami the mountain meets. Yes, I bid farewell to Clara Bnllo Leo, My love that, was first and lust; She lives in that quaint old town by tho sea, And often slio sends some token to.mo, That bids me remember the past. Bkkt W.
