Uy tho wolf-acarlng faggot that guarded tho slain, At tho dead of tho night a sweet vision I saw, ., And thrlco oro tho morning I dreamt It again. $ . Mothought from tho bnttlo-flold's dreadful array, Far, far I had roamed on a desolnto track; 'Twas Autumn nnd.sunshlno nroso on tho way To tho homo of my fathots, that welcomed mo back. I flow to tho pleasant Holds travorsod so oft In llfo's morning march, whon my bosom was young; I hoard my own mountain-goats bleating aloft, And know tho swoot strain that tho corn-roapers sung. Thon pledged wo tho wlno-cup, nnd fondly I sworo ' From my homo and my weeping frlonds never to part; My little ones kissed mo a thousand times o'er, And my wlfo sobbed aloud In her fullness of heart. Stay, ntay with us rost, thou art woary and worn; And fain wad their war-brokon Boldlor to stay; Rut sorrow roturnod with' tho dawning of morn; And tho volco In my droamlng oar molted away. Thomas Campbell. o JAPANESE IMMIGRATION. - It Is really wonderful what chatiROs tlmo brings. Only a llttlo moro than 20 yoarB ago tho San Francisco Chronlclo was a strong advocato of Chinese labor and wbb blttor In Its denunciation of Donnls Koarnoy nnd tho "Sand Lottors." Wednesday It snys odlterlnlly: It In said that whllo tho Japnnwo govornmont doclaros ofnolally but vorbally that It can and will stop further Immigration of .Tnpanoso coolloi to tho Unltod States 'and British Amorlca, It firmly rofusos to put nn tlng "In writing." WIUI prau dlspatohw qulto ofton fall to got tho truo Inwardness of diplomatic transactions, whloh nro usually kopt as saorat as posslblo, yet wo ar Inollned to billovo thorn In thl enso, for they accord with tho ap paront policy of Japan. llMldou. sometimes the truth Is nllowod to oomo out unofllolnlly for Us effoot, or to olmorvo IU offeot, on public sontlmont. Whother It U truo or not, wo hopo It Is. We trust that thero will never bo another International agroomont xn that Htibjoct with Japan or any othor country, and If our own govern ment Iuim not tho Ktnmlna to stand up and nesert Its sole control, by do mantle law, of tho subjeot of (Immigration, wo aro dellghtort that Japan Is opening tho way. IN PACT WIS IIAVK NA OCCASION TO ASIC JAPAN TO SIGN ANY WRITING." Wo ask nothing and could doslro nothing more than tho "writing" which sho has already slgnod, bol;g the treaty botwton tho two coun tries now In forco. THAT TKICATY KXPR15SSLY RESERVES TO ROTH COUNTRIES TTHE RIGHT TO EXCLUDE LAUORHHS OF THE OTHER. All wo can ask of Japan Is that alio shall not klok it wo exorcise our Tights under that troaty. In particular wo aro hotly oppoied to the slgnnturo of anything now whloh might modify our rights as thoy stand, uor do wo bollovo that any suoh modlllcllatlon could bo ratlflod by tho senate. Japan, howovor, does not wish us to pass an exclusion not, and If her govornmont can koop Japanoso coolies out there will bo no occasion to do BO. Nor do wo bollovo that, unless a s poolal Influx of Japanoso should com pel It, wo ahould ovor pass a "Japan eso" axoluslon net. Tho wholo questlou of Asiatic Immigration should bo settled at once. It lo tlmo thnt thero was loglslatlvo recognition of tho fact that whllo wo can assimilate Europoau Immlgr atlon, ovon If moro or less mixed with tho blood of 'tho racos of western Asia,, wo cannot, do not deslro to, and will not attompt to asslmllato Asiatics from east of tho Porslan gulf. Wo havo no ongagomonts which r ould provont us from enacting such legislation forwlth, nnd It should bo dono.

Prevaleucjr of Kidney DUuo, Most people do not realize the alarm ing increase and remarkable prevalency otkiuney disease. are the most common diseases that pre vail, they are almost the last recognized by patient and phy sicians, who coil' tent themselves with doctoring the effects, while the orig inal disease undermines the system. tVbat To Bo. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the freat kidney remedy, fulfills every wish in curiug rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary presage. It corrects inability to hold water nnd scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne cessity of being compelled to go oftejt during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the .highest for its woudcrful cures of the most dis tressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best, Sold by drug gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sues. You may have a sample bottle and a book mat tells all about it, both seat free by mail.

Dr. Pierce's world-famed medicines are put out under the belief that publicity is the best possible guaranty of merit, and that the most intel ligent people generally want to know what they take into their stom achs, whether' it be as food, drink or medicine. Although it was a bold step to take, and quite out of the usual practice of makers of propria tary medicines, yet Dr. Pierce, some time ago, decided to publish broad cast and on all his bottle-wrappers all the ingredients entering into the composition, or make-up, of his celebrated family medicines. A square deal is therefore assured every one using hi3 medicines, for one knows exactly what he or she is paying for when purchasing them, since every Ingredient ig published in plain English on the bottle-wrappers and tu correctness of the same attested under solemn oath. These several ingredi ents are selected from among the very best known to medical science for the cure of the various diseases for which these medicines are recommended. Tho most eminent and leading med ical teachers and writers of nil tho soveral schools of practice have endorsed eaoh of the Ingredicnti entering into Dr. Piorco's medicines In tho Etrongost pos siblrtcrms. The makers of Dr. Pierce's medicines belicveNthat Intelligent people do not wish to opn their mouths like lotNpf lyoung birU and gulp down whatcvcrvjSjpixseoVto them, either in the way oi "rooti tmhk or medicine, without knowing RbmVhing of the properties and harming character of the agents employed. They hfllinvp, thnt hpnltli ii too sAcretLa hcritAM to be i oxiierinr.,ntf'fl wjthnd thnt people should not .tnfa -wfficiwfi nf-ihe com- ppultOn oltpilclQfi a net. ur, l lurct: h m idicincs are tnnnr are made mcc wholly from the roots of plants found f;rowIng In tho doptha of our American orcsta. Tli w aro so compounded that they cannot do harm in any caoe. eyen to the most delicate woman or child. By open publicity Dr. Pierco has taken his medicines out of tho list of secret nos trums, of doubtful morit, and mado thorn ncAir.uiBS op known compo sition. They aro thoroforo, In a class all by thomrolvos, being absolutely and in every seiiMO non-secret. By this bold stop Dr. Pierco has shown that his formulas aro of such oxccllenco that ho is not afraid to eubjoct them to tho fullest scrutiny. There is a badge of honesty on overy bottlo of Dr. Piorco's medicines in tho full list of ItA ingrcdionta duly attested as correct undor solomu oath. No other medicines put up for goncral uso through druggists uun mako claim to any such distinction, nnd nono other than Dr. Piorco's modieincs havo any euch urofcssional endorsement of their ingrcuionts. Such professional endorse ment should have far moro woight with tho aflllcted than any amount of lay, or non-prooeaional, indorsement, or testi monials. Of courio, the rxact proportion of each Ingredient used in Dr. Pierce's mediolnesas welt as tho working formula or manner of preparing tho same, nnd tho specially dovlsed apparatus and ap pliances emnloyed In thoir manufacture, nro withheld from publicity that Dr. Piorco's proprietary rights may bo fully &roteotctt from such unprincipled Imi itors an might bo piratically inclined. Tho preparation of theso medicines without tb np of a dron of alcohol, so generally employed and yet so harmful, in tho long run, to most Invalids when its uso is long continued, oven in small doses, cost Dr. Pierco several yenrs o! careful Btudy and labor, with tho aid of skilled pharmacists nnd chemists to assist him. Naturally, ho does not caro to glvo away his scientific and oxact processes for propnring theso medicines, but ho docs want to deal in the most opon manner with nil his patrons and Iiatiente, and under this frank, open and loncnt way of dealing, thoy may know exactly what thoy aro taking when using his medicines. Wht Do They Cure? This ques tion Is often asked concerning Dr. Pierco's two lending medicines, Golden Medical Discovery" and "Fnvorlto Pro scription." The answer is that "Golden Medical Discovery" is a moat potent alterative or blood-purifier and tonic or invicor ator and acta especially favorably in a curative and healing way upon nil tho mucous ljning surfaces aa of tho nnsnl passages, throat, bronchial tubes, stom ach, bowels and bladdor, curing a largo per cent, of catarrhal ciibcb whether tlio disease affects tho nnsnl pnesnges, tho throat, inrynx, bronchia, stomach (as catarrhal dyspepsia) , bowels (as tnucoui diarrhea), bladder, uterus or other pclvio organs. Even in tho chronic or ulcerative stages of these affections, it is often successful in effecting cures. Tho M Favorite Prescription " is advised for tho euro of ono class of dloonscs only those peculiar weaknesses, derange ments and irrcgulnritics incident to women. It Is n powerful yet gen tly acting invigorating tonio nnd strongthqnlng nervine. lorwcak.worn out, over-worked women no matter whnt has caused thp break-down, "Fn vorito Prescription " will bo found most effectivo in building up the strength, regulating tho womanly functions, sub dulngpntn and bringlncnbouta healthy, vigorous condition of tlio wholo system, women suffering from diseases of long standing, nro invited to consult Doctor Piorco by letter, free.
