no MY 10TH n r.

My Mother on thy fading brow is many q
The tale Of Lies e%yentful scenes is deeply
written there
And day by day a voice there comes, to whis.
per unto me,
That Time hath for my manhood claimed the
years Of Age from thee.
And now when in maturer years, the scenes
of Youth trace,
And mark the saddened smile that oft vii
steal across thy face,
The memory of my hayward way is darby
round me thrown,
To whisper that by acts Of mine that smile
hath sadder grown
Oh! cold, indeed, would be my heart, did i
refuse to thrill,
When / recall thy love for me-, that lives un-
changing still!
That Ger nay spirit ever threw, when / hat
sought its power,
A spell as sweet as thoughts of Heaven, in
melancholy hour
How oft when others faithless proved, and I've
gone forth 10 feel,
Amid the worlds discordant throng, aloneness
Ger me steal,
Hath sweet remembrance given me for these
poor friends of mine,
The thought, that as their love grew faint, i
only deepened thine!
In all the bliss which I have felt-in all the
woes of Care.
Thy heart, responsive to my own, would joys
and sorrows share /;
And when my love to others turned, and cold
to thee had grown,
Ny wanderiags but seemed TO make thine live
for me alone!
Then Mother be it mine to give a pureF love
to thee
A love as holy and as strong as thine has been
for me;
Striving TO deepen all thy bliss, and every
grief assuage,
And solace with my better years the l%oneness
of thine Age

OIL OF TANNIN.
OR LEATHER RESTORER.
A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY

Most people know that skins an. hides are convert
ed into leather by the use of Tannn extracted from
certain banks, &c.
When the force and strength of the Tannn is worn
out, leather becomes dead hard dry, brittle cracked
covered with crust, sc. THIs ALL Know To re-
store then, life, soltness moistness, strength smooth
ness and ramore all crust, fly or bliser-restore the
tannn This substance the leather never can receive
the second time; but the whole virtues of il are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN-which pcne-
trates the sest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use and if it tears easily with the
fingers, it mparts at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather
in all respects, with delightful sofness and polish
and makes all leather completely and perfectly i'm
peryious to water-parcularly boots, shoes, carri-
age-ops, harness. hose, trunks, and in fact all things
made OF leather giving splendid polish, even high
er than new leather has, and at least doubling its
wear and durability, in whatever manner the leather
is used, THESE ARE FACTS.
Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with
cons, ride with old carriage-topshave old harness,
and throw them away half used-look filthy them
selves and all about them--expend double what is
necessary for articles of leather to thor hearts con-
tent, for what we care, If their preiudices are so

DYSPEPSIA CURED.

BENNINGTON, VT Dec 5th 1913.
Dear Sir wish to add my testimony to the host
Of others that you have in favor Of your valuable pills
In the yeaI 1898, was attacked with that disagree
| able complaint the Dyspepsia, which so affected me
that could not take particle of food without the
most unpleasant and uncomfortable sensations in my
chest head and bowels. Ny chest was so sore that
could not bear the slightest pressure without giving
me pain. My health was most miserable; many
physicians told me they thought was in the consump
ton, and that if / did not give up my business aud
| change climate, could live but ashort time.
tried every thing il the shape Of medicine, and
consulted the most skillul physicians, but found
permanent relief ! became discouraged, gloomy,
sad and sick Of life; and, probably, this, should
have been in my grave, had | not fell in with your
precious medicine. A friend Of mine, who had been
sick OF the complaint, advised me to try your
pills. but having tried most other medicines without
obtaining any relief had but little faith that your pills
would be OF benefit to me- but, at his earnest solicit
tation, | procured box and commenced taking
them.
The first box produced little or no effect, and be-
gan to despond, for fear that your medicine would
prove like others have taken; but my friends argued
that one was not fair trial, and purchased sec
ond, and before had taken the whole box began to
experience change! the pain in my chest began to be
less painful, and my food did not distress me much
as formerly went on taking them until had taken
six boxes, and my Dyspepsia was GONE, and my ex-
pectaion Of an early death vanished and felt like
new creature | was then, and am now
healthy man. | have never since been troubled with
the dyspepsia. have administered your pills to the
members ofmy family, and to my friends and in all
cases with good success. You can publish this if it
will be of any to you am dear sir, truly yours,
