THE KING’S SEAT.
Prince Valdimir sat wtth his knight*
In Kief’s banquet hall,
And boasted of arms and of victories woi
And the joy of the bugle call.
“While a figure gray at the gate
Knocked once and twice and thrice,
And Valdimir snouted: “No more shall come
in
Neither for love nor for price!”
But a breath of wind blew apart
The fringe of the pilgrim’s cloak,
And beneath, the lute of the singer was seer
Before the singer spoke.
‘‘Ai, little minstrel,” then said
The great Prince Valdimir,
“The top of the earthen oven is there,
The minstrel’s place is here.
“A small and lowly place,
For my heroes all have come,
Bloody with wounds and with honors rare
From Ilza of Murom.”
The minstrel climbed to his seat
On the earthen oven’s top,
And tuned his lute and began his song
And they would not let him stop.
For his song of battle and death
He sung of victories won,
Of Deuk and his Indian steed,
And the tale of Morga, the Livan.
And there, as he sang, as he sang,
The hearts of men bowed down,
Andlo! the top of the oven
Became the monarch’s throne.

Warm Waves
Are rolling in. You can’t escape
them; but you can escape the
sleepless nights, loss of appetite,
and languid feeling that result
from draining the nervous force
by muscular or mental exertion
in summer’s torrid days. The use
of Paine’s Celery Compound, that
great nerve tonic, will at once
strengthen the nervous system,
and fortify it against the attacks
of summer debility. This pre¬
paration is a medicine,
not a drink. ^ ‘

and has I brought
new life and' ’ health to
thousands whose
weakened nerves
were the cause of their many ills.
It is especially valuable at this sea¬
son, when feeble persons are so lia¬
ble to sunstroke, a disease which
is nearly always fatal. Paine’s
Celery Compound, by restoring
perfect health, almost entirely re¬
moves the liability to this dread
disease. If you feel the effects of
summer’s heat, you can’t afford to
delay another day before gaining
the vitality only obtained by the
use of this great medicine.
