Oh where has The little one fed,
The child with the innocent ewes,
With the ready smile and the springng step,
and the inerry, quick replies? g.4-.
She was always so gay and so bright,
That miss her when she is gone; ..
Is she out at her play in the garden there?
DO You think she would leave alone?
Perhaps she is hunting the flowers
That come when the snow meits aWayLi.
The FOCUSES, starting up purple anu ""'e'
Or the violets, children OF may
Or perhaps she is out with the BIRDS,
Teaching robin and SPARROW TO slngi
Or ,laucing along with fbe glaa Iittie s,reah''
Set tree By the touch of the Spring
Oh, why are your eyes so sad!
Have yon never u word % say
Did The angels come from their heavenly heights
And becion my darling away?
Has she gone through the gates of pearl?f.s
Has she crossed TIE jasper sea?
She cannot be lost whom the angels have found
But she will not come back to me.

THE CHINGAR0RA
..s..t ANTI-NERVOUS
SMOKING TOBACCO.

The CHlNGARORA TOBACCO G ows from the
rich soil of the ORIENT, and is possessed of Pc
cularly delicious flavor entirely unknown to the to-
bacco of all other chimes. But fits unprecedented
popularity has sprung from the fact of the entire abb
sence ofthat deadly poison Ncotia, which permeates
every other tobacco, and which is the and sole
of the distressing diseases, dyspepsia
&c., which most invariably sooner or later, follow
the indulgence of the pipe and cigar At the recent
analyzaton of tobacco from all parts CT the world
at the Academy Of Sciences, in Paris, the renowned
Chemist, NJ. LAMoUREAUx, declared that while Eu-
ropean and American tobacco contained fl.ly eight
per cent, and the purest Havana tobacco from two
to Eve per cent. of Nicotia, the CHlNGARORA did
not contain discoverable particle Of that deadly
poison, drop OF which, extracted, will destroy life
Our Agent at BOMBAY has shipped us large guam
titles of the CHJNGARORA during the past two
years, and although we have been pressed to supply
the demand for this delicious luxury to the veteran
smoker, yet we are now prepared to offer 1t in unm-
tied quantities, at a price mich lower than some
American tobacco of far inferior quality
A connoisseur has but to smoke the American to-
baooo and segsrs, which are invariably chemically
favored, to be disguised with the medicinal taste
which leaves a nauseous, unhealthy coating in the
mouth, and in time seldom fails to shatter the
vous system.
The natives of the Orient" smoke the CHIN
GARORA from morn till night, from youth to age,
and are happily unconscious of ths Wild distressing
fire which courses through the veins OF the inhaler of
| the fumes of tobacco containing NicofiR.
We invite every lover of the weed to try the CHIN
| GARoRA, and guarantee unprecedented pleasure in
ts delicious flavor

ance. In vomiting, ice should be laid
upon the pit Of the stomach as the wrap
ping is commenced. To counteract the
thirst, ice should be constantly put upon
the tongue by the attendant, for recollect,
the patients hands and arms are tightly
enveloped, and should be kept so, when
reaction, heat and perspiration give a
turn of the current of circulation in a
natural direction, and the antidotal and
arterial stimulation comes in as reserve
corps to chase the enemy already fanked
and scattered. This treatment, where
the proper antidotes are used, have
never known to fail, and | suggest that
no case be abandoned without its use. 1t
is vastly more effective than mustard,
rubbing, hot baths, or any other method
which does not exclude the air entirely
from the body. While thus insulated the
electric nervous force is husbanded, and
advantage can be taken Of the increased
circulation determined towards the skin
and extremities, in thus overcoming re-
gurgitative action to antidote the poison,
sustain and stimulate the powers of life
My experience has led me to believe that
few cases might not be saved in this way
Those apparently hopeless have been
thus restored from collapse and appa-
rent death. 1t is too terrible a scourge
to fly from in fear, for it is but too GER
tain to overtake the fugitive. Manly re-
sistance, undaunted courage and heroic
humanity asks in such times of peril
martyrs, not more than brave men and
women, to dare and do for friends and
kindred, for foes and strangers, where
mercy and kindness call
