TT is estimated that 10000 persons die annu-
L ally in the United States, with consumption,
and Professor Eberly says, that vast number
of these could be saved by the timely use of
some proper remedy.
DIR. HALLS BALSAM strikes at the root of
the disease AT ONCE, and such is its speedy eff
feet, that any one using it freely, according to
directions, for twenty four or forty eight hours,
and not entirely satisfied with its merits may re-
turn it and receive back his money. The most
distressing cough is frequently relieved by a
single dose, and broken up in few hours time
The afflicted do not have to take bottle after bot
tie before they find whether this remedy will
afford relief or not.

1t has effected cures in numerous cases, where
the most skillful physicians in this country and
IN Europe have been employed, and have eXer-
cised their skill in vain. Cases which hey pro-

Aud hesc cases are no Isolated ones they are
numerous, ANA can be pointed out in every COM

been tested.
Be slow, then, to believe the oft repeated story
about the lungs being gone or rather let no
sucn apprehension lluuCe you 70 give up. dct
upon the principle that ,ohiIe there is life there is
hope. You can NEVER BE so LOW that you may
not trust, humanity speaking, in HALLS BAL
SAM. More chan one nay hundreds, has it
brought almost from death to life, when all else
had failed. Give, then, this powerful but harm
less remedy trial.
The public have been imposed upon by rene
dies recommended by certificates which have
always originated from some unknown source.
We believe that medicine possessing real mer-
its win effect cures wherever it is used at home
as well as abroad. This is no paregoric pTepar-
alton, but one which, if used in season, will save
the lives of thousands.

Wife and I.

We ouarreled this morning, my wife and l.
We were out of temper. and scarce knew why,
Though the cause was trivial, and common ::
But to look in our eyes, you'd have sworn Una
we both
We're couple Of enemies spiteful, and wroth--
Not n welded man and woman.
Wife, like tragedy queen IN play,
Tossed her sweet little head in as loity way
As SO little a woman was able;
She clenched her lips with sneer, and a frown
While /, being rougher, stamped up and down.
Like careless groom in stable
You'd have thought US the bittersst Seeing us
then,)
or little women, and little men,
You'd have laughed at our spite, and passions
And would nicer have dreamed that storm
like this
Would be rainbovd to tears by that sunlight, a
kiss,
Till we talked in the old fond fashion.
Yet the storm was over in less than an hour,
And was followed soon by sunny shower
And that again by embraces;
Yet SO little the meaning was understood
That we almost felt ashamed to be good,
And wore blush on our faces.
Then she, as woman, much Drawer became,
And tried TO bear thewhoe weight of the blame
BY her kindness, her self reproducing;
When seeing her humble, and knowing her
true,
at once became humble, too,
And very contrite, and loving.
But, seeing that acted an humble part,
She laughed outright with frolic heart
A laugh as careless as Cupid;
And the laughter wrangled along my brain,
Till almost fell in passion again,
And became quite stubborn and stupid.
And this was the time for her arm to twine
Around this stubbomest neck Of mine,
Like the arms of maid around lover;
And feeling them there, with their warmth you
know,
laughed quite different laugh; and SO
The storm, Gas l called it, was over.
80 then we could talk with the power to please;
And though the passing Of storms like these
Leaves certain fond facility
Of getting easily angry again,
Yet they free the heart, and rebuke the brain,
And teach us rough humility.
You see that we love one another so well
That we can find more comfort than yon can
tell
In ingling orr bells and corals;
In the fercer fights Of world SO drear,
We keep our spirits so close and clear,
That we need such trivial qnarrels.
In the great, fierce, fights, of the world we try
To shield one another, my wife and l.
Like brave, strong, man and woman;
But the trivial quarrels o days and nights,
unshacklc our souls for the great, fierce, fights,
And keep us lowly, and human.
Clouds would grow in the quietest mind,
And make II unmeet to mix with its kind,
Were nature less wise as a mother;
And with storms like ours there must flntter out
From the bosom the boarded up darkness, and
doubt
Tho excess of our love for each other.
