Lines on the death of George Film
youngest child of Frank and Maria Finn
of Stratford Hollow, whose death wa
caused by his falling into pail of no
water, Nov. 1874. His age was year, l
months and 8 days:
1t has come, the sad message hath reached us.
With waii of despire, it has come,
And we learn that the lips of our darling
The wee little George-:Ire dumb;
That the Angel of Death came and called it,
While yet at its play in the mora;
And the home once so cheerful and happy
Is now, oh, so sad and fOrorn!
1t came not with sickness to weaken,
Nor yet with disease to lay low;
But while yet in its strength and its beauty,
1t lured the wee blossom to go.
Or! why little feet did We heed it?
What urged thy sweet form to its doom?
Was it fate? But no an wer returneth,
And all lonely we're left in our gloom.
1t is sad, oh, it's harl to remember
That thy life thus so early should close;
And to think of thy torture and anguish
Drives us frantic with grief for thy woes.
But, o God, in thy mercy and kindness,
In all tatherly goodness and love,
Let lis hope Thou hast not calleu us to sourn,
But to swell up the anthems above.
Then, sad heart, hush. be still all repininss;
Know thy darling is safe there above.
The dear little feet will not wander
Away from his lartherly love;
And let this be a beacon to lure thee,
Weeping mother and father, away
To those realms where no sorrow or signing
Can be known, or be felt for a day.
But robed in immortal beauty,
Aud forever free from pain,
That same dear, loving George
Will be our own again.
And when again we meet him,
And clasp him to our heart
How sweet the consolation,
We never more will have to part.

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thiekened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophed and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, SO that .cw
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a rasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and iniu-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
noehing else can be found SO desirable
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.
