That Fearful Snore.
Hear that fearful trumpet an ore.
Load old more I
What terrible and unearthly noises
fourth it poire l
A it rises and it lowers.
Prom the ceilings to the floors.
Now in thunder tones it roars.
And how terribly it boes
With its noise.
Those who try in vain to close their weary
eyelids in the night.
For it rises like a screeching steam whistle
with all its might.
Tn the darkness of the night.
It lowers and swells out right.
With never a promise to cease
And never gives us blissful peace,
Although we sit in wrathful praise,
Oh, the snore, snore, snore, snore, snore !
What a horror they outpour.
Of despair.
How it wheezes in the air,
How it snorts I do declare,
How the blood is chilled and frozen in the
veins
For the hearer fully knows,
That the snoring
And the snoring
Will continue to reign.
And the ear distinctly keeps
All the snuffling,
And the shuffling,
How the snorer soundly sleeps,
By the rising or the falling in the wilderness
of the snore
Of the snore
Of the snore, snore, bnore, snore, snore.
In the roaring and the soaring of the snore !
Didn't Know he Was Dead,
Not long ago I was riding along a
mountain trail (it shouldn't be digni
fied with the name of road) in Carter
county, east Tennessee, says a cor
respondent of thePhiladelphia Press,
whan an old fellow darted out from
the door of a low cabin, jumped the
rail fence in front, and came tearing
down toward me as if a marshal had
been in close pursuit.
' Hello, stranger; stay er minotel"
he yell, d, gesticulating wildly with
his right hand, but never breaking
his gait.
I drew rein
He cam up puffing and blowing,
with his eyes quivering with wild ex
citement. "Say, mister (pant, pant.) is it so ?"
"Is what so?" 1 returned.
Why, han't ye hearn ?"
"Heard what V" was my astonished
rejoinder.
"I gnats if ye an't hearn, it can't be
so," and a hopeful light dawned in
his anxious eyes.
"I don't? know what you're inquir
ing about, I'm sore," 1 spoke; "what
is it you want to know ?"
"Iz it so, or iz it not so, that Gineral
Jackson is dead?"
"I think so " I replied with as much
solemnity as I could muster.
"Wall, it's awfnl to think uv, an't
it ?" said the old fellow, gloomily.
"TeB, it's bad."
"Are you shore, though it is so ?"
"I read it."
" What did yer read it in ther Bi
ble?" "No."
"Oh, well, I'd haf ter read it in the
Bible thet the oje Gineral had pegged
out 'fore I'd berlieved it. That ar' re
'port's jis' been put out ter keep us
fellows from votin' fer him so's they
'cud git dnr votes fer .some other fel
low for President ! Good bye, stran
ger." And the old man turned toward the
house well satisfied that Gen. Jaekson
reigned, and as a consequence, the
government at Washington still lived.

The Book Trust Knocked Out.
A Cabd to thk public.
The price of the great Encyclopedia Brit
annica, 18 per volume for the English edi
tion, and 15 per volume for the Seribner and
the Stoddard t editions in the cheapest bind
inghas been a bar to its popular use.
Our new reprint of this work is furnished
at 11.50 per volume, the greatest bargain ever
known in the book trade. We have sold over
half a million volumes in six months; proof
that the public appreciate so great a bargain.
This reprint is not an abridgment, but a re
production of the entire twenty-five volumes
of the great Edinburg ninth edition, page for
page, with new and later articles on import
ant American topics, and new maps, later
and better than in any other edition. In all
repects it compares favorably with the hteh
priced editions, and in point of maps and du
rability of binding it is superior to them.
Heretofore we have sold only for cash. We
now announce that we will deliver the set
complete on small easy payments,
Special Office. In order that you may
see the bargain we offer, and examine its
merits, we will furnish Volume 1 by express
for 60 cts. a fraction of actual cost; add 40 eta
postage if wanted by mail. -
