known, who have been restored from alarming and
desperate diseases of the lungs by its use When

where its virtues are known the public no lenger hes
ate what antidote to employ for the distressing and
dangerous affections Of the pulmonary organs which

able attacks upon the lungs but for the mder vare
ties of Colds Coughs Hoarseness, &C. and for child

The Use Of Flowers.
By NARY HowITT,

God might have made the earth bring forth
Enough for great and small,
The oak-tree and the cedar-tree,
Without flower at all.
He might have made enough, enough
For every want of ours
For luxury, medicine, and toll
And yet have made no flowers.
The ore within the mountain mine,
Requireth none to grow,
Nor doth 1t need the HORSEPOWER
To make the river flow.
The clouds might give abundant rain,
The nightly dews might fall,
And the herb that keepeth life in man
Might yet have drunk them all
Then, wherefore, wherefore were they made,
All dyed in rainbow-light;
All fashioned with supremest grace,
Upspringing day and night
Springing in valleys, green and low,
And on the mountain high,
And in the silent wilderness
Where no man passes by?
Our outward life requires them not
Then wherefore have they birthg
To minister delight to man,
To beautify the earth:
To comfort man---to whisper hope,
Whenever his faith is dim;
For whose careth for the flowers,
Will much more care for him.

been wasted in futile endeavors to obtain

but all have failod except HUsr's LisrMxsr,
and that has been successful in almost every
instance in which it has been employed.
Rheumatism arises from different causes,
but most generally proceeds from colds, expo
sure to the weather, aud sleeping in damp
rooms. Those who are subject to this COM
