COuleur de Rose.
BY LAURA C. REDDEN.

When he told me that he loved me.
Twas the fowery time of Nav:
put roses in my Tinglets,
And went singing all the day.l
When he told me that he loved ma
In the pleasant month of MAY.
Still he told me that he loved me
IN the sumller time of June,
Wnen the roses blushed the redder,
AMI the bids were all In tune;
AMI binshed because he loved me,
Redder than the rose Of June!
Yes, because I knew he loved me
went ibging vii the birds.
All the day 1 listened to him,
In my dreams heard his words;
Dreami q nightly that he loVeu me,
Twas blither than the birds!
But did not know l loved MN
I'LL found one summer DAY
That In tel ing hcs he loved me
He had wi.ed my heart away
,Jnsf by saving how lie loved me
Through the jng, bright summer day.
Sill he told me that he iov d me
VIII n tie roses, fading fell,
Ami ths birds had ali forgotten
Tha sweet song I'd learned too well.
For love him, and he loves me,
More than any words can TIL.

which can be cured by a
timely resort to this stand
ard preparation, as has been
proved by the hundreds of
testimonials received by the
proprietors. 1t is acknowl-
edged by many prominent
physicians to be the most
reliable preparation ever in
troduced for the relief and
cure of all Lung complaints,
and is offered to the public,
sanctioned by the experience
OF over forty years. When
resorted to in season it sell
dom fails to effect a speedy
cure in the most severe
cases of Coughs, Bronchitis,
Group, Whooping Cough,
Influenza, Asthma, Colds,
Sore Throat, Pains or Sore
ness in the Chest and Side,
Liver Complaint, Bleeding
at the Lungs, &c. Wistar's
Balsam does not dry up a
Cough, and leave the cause
behind, as is the case with
most preparations, but it
loosens and cleanses the
lungs, and allays irritation,
thus removing the cause of
the complaint.
