TO MOTHERS
Save your children, mothers save,
Those you cherish, from the grave #m
Worms, of youthful life the bane,
Source of feebleness and pain,
Leading soon, if uncontrolled,
To disorders manifold
May with certainty be cured,
And your darlings health secured.
Would you brace each wasted limb,
Brighten eyes with langor dim,
Rapidly the cause remove,
Of disease, from those you love;
And to cheeks once cherry red
But pallid as the dead,
Bring back natures living rouge7

The pride of mankind is singularly developed in
the keeping and arrangement of the hair; perhaps
from the fact that It is the only portion of the human
