Mark this, il is an internal remedy not ex-

venient Medicine to take, and improves the gen.
lera health in remarkable manner,
1t is very mild in its operation, AID may be

in the his hest degree disa greable, inconvenient
and offensive; and from tine very nature oil the
disease, temporary in its effects. This Medicine
attacks the disease at its source, and removing
the cause, renders the cures certain and perma-
nent.
The Electnary contains no mineral medicine,
no alces, colocynth, gamboge, or other power
full and irritating purgative. n o fear oil taking
cold while under its influence. No change in
diet necessary. If taken according TO directions
cure for life is guaranteed.

TWILIGHT HOUR.

This is the hour that love best
Ofall the hours of day,
When sinking slowly to his rest,
The day-god fades away;
When all so tranquil and serene.
The wind scarce breathes a sigh.
And here and there a star is seen
To twinkle in the sky,
OH this sweet hour doth seem to me
Almost as if 'twere given,
When from the cares of day set free,
To raise the thoughts to heaven;
For as | watch the distant sky
That CLOVIS with many a star,
think of that dear friend on high,
And that bright world affair."
think ofall the loved the lost,
Who from this world have flown,
And with the ransomed heavenly host,
Surround the Fathers throne.
Oft fancy waves her magic wand,
And mid the shade of night,
Those dear ones from the spirit-land
VIII greet my ravish'd sight;
Or, as the zephyr's voice | hear
Sigh with plaintive moan,
often list with anxious ear
For some remembered tone
Some voice that, here forever still,
In raplrrous strains of love
Joins in the joyous songs that swell
The harmony above.
