The 4th of July 1894 has passed Into history- About 4 o'clock came the firing' of anvils began by Captain Matheny. A light rain also began to fall by six o'clock which made the outlook very unfavorable, however there was just enough to lay the dust and not enough to dampen the enthusiasm of our patriotic people. At 10 o'clock the procession formed on north Main street headed by Marshall's Leon band, followed by carriages containing the mayor, speaker of the day and prominent citizens. W. W.

Antonio Alaekdn, of Bastrop, Texas, tells why he RECOrilltlENDS the use of Ayer's Hair Vigor: In 1868, my affianced was nearly bald, and the hair kept falling out every day. I induced her to use Ayer's Hair Vigor, and very soon, it not only checked any further loss of hair, but produced an entirely new growth, which has remained luxuriant and glossy to this day. I can recommend this preparation to all in need of a genuine hair-restorer." Ayer's Hair Vigor penor VOOK oiovcs, muiiac v-uni nanicrs, iidgicvuuioiuj i cf pre on A T-Tarrnwi.

The world seemed many years older to Grendie when morning came, for she had slept but little, and the night had seemed very long. But now all her hope and anxiety of the night was absorbed by the fact that Mr. Morrison was a very sick man.

"Pneumonia!" the doctor said, when he came, "and a severe case of it, too. He is naturally not very strong, and will need the best of care, hich I know he will get. Good care, with my almost incomparable faculty for treating cases of this kind he added pompously I feel assured will carry him through without serious results." "Yet, if love and care can save him." thought the fond mother, "he shall live!" With this feeling uppermost, she sat down at her son's bedside, ready to attend to his every want. But Mr. Morrison seemed to care only for Orendie.

And with a little pang of jealousy of which she herself was half ashamed, she summoned her and yielded her place to her. Mrs. Morrison's motherly tenderness surmounted all other feeling, however, and the next moment she was shedding tears of joy, that her son was where his wife could be with him, and that he was not one of the poor soldiers who were dying away from friends and home. Then followed many hours of anxious watching hours of restless tossing and pain for tho patient often delirium, in which he talked incessantly, declaring that a demon was always near, to whom he had bastered his soul. One night during the first week of his illness, Grendie had prevailed on Mrs.

Morrison to try and gain a full night's rest. Maddie had retired early iu order to be equal to the duties of the morrow. The patient was sleeping quietly from the ef If you have A Farm, A Stock of Goods, A Ranch, A Bunch of Stock, Or A ay Other Commodity.

When one becomes intensely interested in a favorite pursuit, it is easy to forget care and the flight of time.

In this rich mine of sweetness and sublime ideality, Grendie almost forgot there were such things in life as pain and sorrow, until she was called back from the ideal to the real by tho clock chimiag forth the hour. Now she remembered that she had heard the clock strike at least twice before while she was reading; but as her husband was sleeping quietly and there was no medicine to be given, she had been hardly conscious of it. She dropped the book with a faint sigh of regret and rising, lightly touched her husband's brow. "Poor Edward!" she whispered, pityingly, "life is so hard for you, and I can do so little to make it better!" She put more wood on the fire and arranged a few things differently on the table, more from a desire to do something than because it was needed, and sat down again. She had taken up the book to resume her reading, when Leo broke the stillness again.

Great minds have been known to aver that certain lives are designed for joy, others for sorrow.

Surely sorrow was allotted to thee as thy portion, ever patient and enduring Grendie! for as thy past and thy pres ent entwine themselves in thy thoughts tonight, they cast no cheering ray of light toward an earthly future. Yet for a moment now and then, thank Godl thy burdened mind finds rest by soaring lightly upward as if on angel wings, to a higher and diviner life which, while it seems so very near, blots out the pain of experience! And thus the hours passed till nearly midnight, when Grendie was startled by the loud barking of Leo who, she judged, was some distance away, and retreating toward the house, as if contesting every x'ojt of ground with an enemy.

She heard Leo jump over the yard fence and lie down in his old place before the front door, where he was apparently contenting himself with a series of angry growls, and hopefully concluded that his enemy had gone away. But a moment later the sound she dreaded broke on her ear.

She sprang to her feet in an agony of terror. "The signal!" she gasped, looking at her husband. "Great Heaven! what shall I do if it awake him?" Again and again, at intervals of a few moments, came the dreaded call; by wklch time her face was white as the dead. Still she did not lose her self-command. She stood like a statue, listening intently.

To her great relief and joy, however, she heard no more of the signal, and her husband was still sleeping. Then she thought of Mrs. Morrison. Was it possible that she had not been disturbed? She listened for the expected footfall, but it came not. "Heaven has been kind," she mused: "Poor mother!" Now when the danger seemed over, she began to realize how greatly the excitement had unnerved her.

She could not think of sitting down again soon. She went into the sitting room aad began walking rapidly back and forth, her light footsteps giving baok no sound from the carpeted floor. Nothing serious would come of it, she hoped. The man who had given the signal had probably gone, and she had nothing to fear, for the present. When she felt herself growing weary, she took a book which she had received that morning from home, au seating herself again in the sick room, was soon deep in the my thical mazes of an old German legend, whose rhythmical sweetness thrilled her like the subdued chime of bells, and carried her far away to the grand old castles, the blue, limpid lakes and Miss Lizzie Denison went to Eureka Monday, and will remain until after Where are you at?

The time for holding the People's Par -ty County Convention is fast approaching.

So far, Andy Swiggett. Judge Morrison, Mrs Hazelrigg and County Commissioner Ellis seem to have no op position for their respective places. As the Citizen has said in times past, these are true and tried officers, and deserve ail the honors and favors that the convention may have at its disposal. This is also true of County Attorney Schumacher, but Mr. Schumacher insists that he dnes not want a renomination.

The Citizen believes that the present county officers would make a stronger race than any new men who could be picked up. We look for a large, harmonious and enthusiastic convention. At a recent meeting of the Central Kansas Baptist association held with the Baptist church at Canton, Kansas, the following resolutions were adopted: Wiierias, Oar beloved brother, Charles H.

YOUNG GIRL'S FORTUNE. AN INTERESTING SKETCH. Nothing appeals so strongly to a mother's affection as her daughter just budding into womanhood. Following is an instance: "Our daughter, Blanche, now 15 years of age, had been terribly afflicted with nervousness, and had lost the entire use of her right arm. She was in such a condition that we had to keep her from school and abandon her music lessons.

In fact, we feared St. Vitus dance, and are positive but for an invaluable remedy she would have had that terrible affliction. We had employed physicians, but she received no benefit from them. The first of last August she weighed but 75 pounds, and although she has taken only three bottles of Nervine she now weighs 106 pounds her nervousness and symptoms of St. Vitus dance are entirely gone, she attends school regularly, and studies with comfort and ease.

Bhe has recovered complete use of her arm, her appetite is splendid, and no money could procure for our daughter the health Dr. Miles' Nervine has brought her. When my brother recommended the remedy I had no faith in patent medicines, and would not listen to him, but as a last resort he sent us a bottle, we began giving It to Blanche, and the effect was almost immediate."
