Exhausted on her couch a siek gui lay,
Pole As White rose witherng. Fuiully
Her fragile form shook with the ireq1en,
cough,
Like frail leaf, which the November blast
l. loosening on the bough.
PICTURE stCOND.
Full OF Life,
Joy in her eyes, and on her cheek the tint
of roses when they open that young girl
Moves with elastic step among her friends.
Who late had thought her dying: swift relief
IN De. Rogers Peerless Remedy,
Tue maiden found. What cured her? ques-
ton her,
And eagerly the rescued will reply,
