Cool waterli9

OOoA water ]
In the warm and sultry days Of Summer,
which are fast coming upon us, he is
thrice happy man who can queneh his
thirst with glass Of cold, sparkling water.
the beverage prepared BY God himself for
man. To one whose misfortune il is 10 be-
compelled to swallow the warm aud fpbv
hydrant water Of the Queen City, unadui-
terated, a glass of this pure beverage is
esteemed the greatest luxury of life. When
the cares of business press heavilyupon us,
and yex US even to bad temper glass of
cool water, if it can be had, restores us to
our wonted cheerfulness and eyenness of
temper, Like the young man who said all
the sorrows brought upon him by the shame
full treatment Of the opposite sex, were dis
PEELED forever by sitting cross-leggel upon
an easy-chair, watching the beautifully curl
ing smoke Of "long nine" and dwell
ing upon the imperfections of the sex in
general--so are all our sorrows allcyiated
by the application of a glass of this all
healing beverage.
Standing upon crrner the other day,
seeing what we could see, or rather what
was to be seen, and particularly to catch an
item, disconsolate youth met our gaze,
looking the very picture Of dospair-or, as
Dow jr, more POLITICALLY expresses it, "look-
ing as serious, sad and downcast, as a
jackass in snow Storm" And if any Of
our readers have had the pleasure or msfor-
tune of looking upon such picture, they
can imagine our emotions, as we gazed upon
the wreck of human hopes. There he stood,
a living monument to "hope deferred" "a
long time hence, we fear,) having been led
a willing captive by the beautiful and be-
witchiUg smiles of his Lassie deal, >" to the
top rung of all his earthly hopes-the high
est notch of his ambtion-only to be left
aIone-to get back to the happy state from
whence he started, as best he could.
Alone! he had to wander through this
cold and cheerless world, where nought
save the clink of the " almighty dollar can
bring forth the pure affections of the human
heart, in these latter days We pitied him
from the innermOst recesses of our philan-
thropic heart, and as we looked upon his
solemn cDuntenance, our mind involunta-
rily wandered back to scenes long since
gone by, and

when we were in just such similar fix.
He gazed around him with bewildered
eye, and no sympathising friend meeting
his glance, he exclaimed, in tone that can
only be imagined by those who have been
similarly situated, "Is there no balm in
Gilead2 Is there no physician there p"
Cruel, cruel maid, thought we, thus to triHe
with the holy affections of the human heart .
Suddenly, his eye rested upon an object in
the distance-his eye flashed forth the fire
of hope once more, his whole countenance
was lit up with a sudden thought What
could it be? thought we. Did he see the
object of his hopes and fears2 He ap-
Proaches quickly, and" WNoHELL's OcrA-
CON WATER COOLER stands before him
Partaking Geeely of its contents, he came
forth, fully restored, and went on his way
rejoicing.
WINcHELL was the Physician, and his in
imitable Cooler possessed the balm that
soothed his troubled and wounded spirit,
and brought him back from the regions of
fancy, to the ordinary walks Of human ma
ture.
To one and all, old and young, rich and
poor, married or single, we say, go to WIN
CHILL, corner of Pearl and Walnut, and fail
not to possess yourselves of one of his beau
tiful Water Coolers. 1t is the best invest
ment that can be made in these speculating
times. See advertisement, in another col
umn.
