POETRY.
Wide-Awake.
BY LOUISE CHANDLER MoULTOk

Wide awake, nnder the laughing skies,
After the dewy and dreamy night;
Riot of roses and Babel of birds,
All the world in whir Of delight.
Roses smile in their white content,
Roses blush in their crimson bliss,
AS the vagrant oreeZes, waving them,
Rutfie their petals with careless kiss.
yellow butterflies flutter and float,
Jeweled humming-birds glitter and glow;
Aud, scorning he ways of such idle things,
Bees fit busily to and tro.
The hooking bird swels his anxious throat,
Trying to be ten birds in one;
And the swallow screams, and circles. and darts
Into the azure to find the sun.
But robin red-breast builds his nest,
Singing song of the joy to come,
And the oriole trims his golden vest,
Glad to be back in his last years home.
Lilies that sway on their slender stalks,
Morning glories that nod to the breeze,
Bloom of blossoms and joy of birds,
Something know of better than these.
Blue-eyed Mary and Black-eyed Kate,
Gallant Harry and steadfast Joe
would rather see them wide awake
Than all the blossoms the gardens know.
Rather than bird-notes hear them call
Shouting and screaming, and out of tune;
For boys and girls are the gladdest things
In all the realm of the joyous June.

S. Best No person can doubt this testimony, and

NATIoK, Mass, Jan. 1, 1874.
MR.. II. R, STEVENS:
Dear Strive have good reason for regarding
your VEGETINE a medicine of the greatest value.
We feel assured that it has been the of saving
our sons life. He is now seventeen years of age;
for the last two years he has suffered from necrosis
of his leg, caused by scrofuous affection, and was
SO far reduced that nearly all who him thought
his recovery impossible. council of able phys-
clans could give but the aintest hope of his ever
rallying, two of the number declaring that he was
beyond the reach of human remedies, that even am
putation could not save him, as he had not vigor
enough to endure the operation. Just then we com
menced giving him VEGETINE, and from that time
to the present he has been continuously improving
He has lately resumed his studies. thrown away
crutches and cane, and walks about cheerfuy and
strong
Though there is still some discharge from the
opening where the limb was lanced, we have the
fullest confidence that in little time he will be per-
fecty cured
He has taken about three dozen bottles of VEGE-
TINE, but lately uses but little. as he declares that
he is too we'll to be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,

Three Points for Consideration.

During the past five years the VEGETINE has
been steadily working itself into public favor,
and those who at first most incredaOus in re-
gard TO its merits are now its most ardent friends
and supporters.
There are three essential causes for those having
such horror of patent medicines, changing their
opinion and lending their influence toward the adj
vancement of VEGETINE. 1st-It is an honestly
prepared medicine from barks, roots and herbs. I'd

The Tired Body Sues For Sleep.

bOSTUN, MATCH 10, 1871.
81. R. STEVENS, ESQ.,:
Dear Sir-It is as much from sense of duty as OF
gratitude that write to say that your VEGETINE-
even if it is patent medcine-has been of great help
to me when nothing else seemed to avail which
could safely use. Either excessive meutal work or
unusual care brings upon me a nervous exhaustion
that desperately needs sleep, but desperately de-
es it, Night after night the poor, tired body sues
for sleep until the day-dawn is welcomed back and
we begin our work tired out with almost frutless
chase after rest. Now have found that little
VEGETINE taken just before l retire gives me
sweet and immediate sleep, and without any of the
evil effects of the usual narcotics think two things
would tend to make brain-workers sleep. 1st-A
little less work. 2d-A little more VEGETINE.
This prescription has helped me.
Now have particular horror of "patent med
Icine" but have greater horror Of being afraid to
tell the straight out truth. The VEGETINE has
helped me, and own it up. Yours &C.,
