Several young folks were assembled

at Mr. Lawrence’s one evening for the urpose of amusement, and after they

had quite exhausted their budget of fun they requested Mr. Lawrence to tell themastory. As he delighted in pleas- ing young people, he readily complied with their request, and asked what they would have.

‘Yours and Lenora’s love story, echoed several merry voices.

‘Weil, then,’ said he, ‘if you will be seated and knee quiet, | will tell you about our courtship.

They seated themselves around him, and with Lenora’s lustrous black eyes beaming on him he began his narrative.

‘Lenora was sixteen and I was twen- ty-two when my story begins. I was visiting at Uncle John’s in Benton, when | became acquainted with her. It was at church, the first Sunday after my arrival, that first saw her. She was a pretty girl, with black eyes, dark brown hair and reg cheeks; which: ¢haims, you see, she still retains in wonderful perfection, though many weary years have passed since then. A; she was an intimate friend of Uncle John’s family [ soon became aquainted with her. We met often, and spent many happy hours together. The re- result was that scarcely a month had eldpsed ere 1 found myselfso deeply in love with her that Ll was resolved to tell her how dear she was to me, and ask her to be my own sweet Lenora. Nor was it long before | had an oppor- tunity of executing my resolution. We were seated on a rustic seated in a beautiful spot in ber mother’s garden. It was a pleasant morning in May, and nature was dressed in her richest garb. The flowers were in full bloom, and the ground was covered with velvet green. The morning from a blue sky through the rich foliage that clustered above our heads, lent a magical lustre to the surrounding scenery. It waz a spot that the artist might be glad to have re- produced on canvas, or the poet to have depicted in rhyme. We had often sat in that self-same spot before; but on this mor.ing it possessed more charm and was more fascinating than ever. With Lenora’s head leaning on my shoulder and her hand placed confiding- ly in mine, I believed myself the most favored of mortals. I thought if I only could have such a dear girl with me all the time, | would be the hap- piest man in the world. It seemed that she divined my thoughts, for she asked me what [ was thinking about. [ told her that I was thinking of the shore time that remained until | would have to go home, and how lone. some [ would be when so far away from her, A tear stole down her rosy cheek, and her head hung lower on my shoulder. I put my arm around her, drew her to my breast, and somehow, though I conld never tell just how, | asked if she would be my own dear

o'clock on the followiog morning after my departure from Clitton found me 10 Lew’s room, in an upper story of a hotel in Greencastle.

I found Lew in good spirits. He was making preparation for his journey,

Of course, I took an opportunity to write and tell Lenora of my trip to | Greencastle, and assured ber that if ikind Providence favored lL would be with her at the appointed time.

me than ever betore.

Several weeks hud passed pleasantly away, when the time for my return home drew near. It was about the middle ot July. Having gained her parent’s consent to our marriage, | promised to return in September to claim my bride.

With «a farewell meeting with Leno- ra, in which all our vows were renew- ed and many parting tears were shed, I took passage in a stage-coach for Clifton, where my fatherlived. It was eighty miles distant, and I was three days in going. The first thing I did after I had received the congratulations of my friends was to write to Lenora, to tell her of my journey over the steep and rocky road among the mountains and-bills on the old stage-coach. A sweet. correspondence ensued, and through the long summer days that followed, the greatest pleasure that 1 enjoyed was in reading Lenora’s letters and writing to her.

About the first of September I re- ceived a letter trom Lew Rowland, ro questing me tocome to Greeucastle and spend a fow days with him betore his RE for California.

ew and I had been schoolmi. < ., 2nd were very intimate friends. For the past three years he had been clerking in a drug-store in Greencustle ; but be- coming weary of such a monotonous Occupation, and not being satistied with the small income dirived from it, he had resolved to seek more romantic and profitable em ployment in the gold tields of California.

Tne time for my return to Lenora was only two weeks off. However, l d-termined to comply with Lew’s re- quest, and, on the day after the receipt of his letter, I started for Greencastle,

The Greatest Medical Discovery sinee the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time whea the heal- ing of so many different diseases has deen caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. MELVIN’S CArsicuM Porous PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and re to be worn continually to effect acure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘natant one is applied the patieut will feel its effect.

Physiciansin ali ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but { it is only of very recent date that its advan-

tages in a porous plaster have been discovered.

Being, however, convinced of the wonderful “eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM

PoROUS PLASTERS, and their superiority over

all other plasters, they now actually prescribe

them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliaiment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and = want a certain cure, ask your druggist for

R. MeLyvrn'’s Capsicum Porous PLASTER,

You ean hardly believe yourown convictions of ! {ts wonderful effects. Although powerful and | quick in its action, you can rely on its safet

for the most delicate person to wear, as it FA free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manutacture @f ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one piaster will ¢+li hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr. Metvyrxe’s CApst- cuM Porous PLAsTeEn, and take no other; or, on peace of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, thev will be mailed, post paid, to eny address in the United States or Canadas,
