put with an eve to suckle. After few
times the eve becomes reconciled to the
pup, which follows her like a lamb, grows
up among and remains with the flock,
and no wolf, man, or stranger dog can
come near the sheep, and the dog will
bring the flock to the fold regularly al
u o'clock in the evening, if you habitu-
ally feed him at that hour.

POETRY.
OUR CHILDHOOD.
Br GEORGE D. PRENTICE.


ITS sad, yet sweet, to listen
To tho sort winds gentle swell,
And think we hear the music
Our childhood loved 50 wellj
To gaze out on the even,
And tho boundiess fields Of air,
And feel again our boyhood's wish
To roam like angels there
There are many dreams of gladness
That cling around the past
And from the tomb Of feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast
The forms we loved so dearly
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon
Those bright and gentle umidcns
Who seemed so formed for bliss
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such n world as this;
Whose darksoft eyes seemed swimming
In sea Of liquid light,
And whose locks Of gold were streaming
Der brows so sunny bright.
Whose smiles were like the sunshine
In the spring time Of the year
Like the changeful CLEANS of April,
They followed every tear
They have paszed-like hopes-away,
And their ioYelihess has fed;
oh many u tear Is mourning
That they are with the dead
Like the brightest buds Of summcr,
They have fallen with The stem;
Yet, oh il il lovely death
To fade from earth like theml
And yet the thought is saddening
To muse on such as they,
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away
That the fair ones whom We love,
Grow to each loving breast,
Like the tendril of the elinging vine,
Then perish where they rest.
And VIC can but think Of these,
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees arc waving Ger us,
And the flowers are blossoming;
And wc know that winters coming,
With It's cold aud stormy sky,
And the glorious beauty round US
Is budding bat TO die

There is no mistake about it, Plan
tation Bitters will ward off Fever and
Ague and all kindred diseases, if used
in time. No family need suffer from
this distressing complaint if they will
keep Plantation Bitters in the house,
and use it according to directions. The
most important ingredient of this
medicine is Calisaya or Peruvian Bark,
which is known to be the finest and
purest tonic in the vegetable kingdom.
The extract Of this Bark is the active
principle of all the good Fever and
Ague Medicines prescribed by intelli-
gent doctors. Calisaya Bark is used
extensively in the manufacture of
Plantation Bitters, as well as quinine,
ard we dare say they owe their popu-
larity mostly to that fact. We can
recommend them.
