What time the thorn bush grows red, and its buds
are swollen;
sigh;
rain-clouds
Move slow through the pale blue air. drift low in the
sky.
And the birds sing soft at the dawn and call and an
spring
What light is lost of the morning, what joy OF the
Maytime,
What note is dumb of the song that the seasons sing?
A veil is over the day, that the sun in heaven
Strike not and pierce the air with golden SPEARS
Still are the and the highland both remember
The night and the noon of tho springtime OF sweet
lost years.
Years that were fair and are dead aud hale forgotten,
Yet come again as in dreams gentle ghosts and
sweet
AS the scent of rose outlives the thorn and the
blossom,
Alike left of grief and of gladness, the lost years
meet.
We fill their pale hands with roses newborn into red
ness,
And say, Ah, bright than these. the buds they
bore;"
We set them about with cypress fresh watered of
sadness,
And say, "This they knew not-these years that are
gone before"
Yet what shall the young spring hold more than they
departed,
What words unspoken of them and strange shall
say?
Silent are all days that were and mute is the NOR

We live in the laughter and tears of the living to-day

H. r. STEVENS: Dear Sr-In expressing my
thanks to yea for benefits derived from the use Of
VEGETINE, and to benefit others. will state:-
When eight nine years old l was afflicted with
Scroula. which made its appearance in my eyes, face
and head. and was very near blind for two years.
All kinds of operations were performed on my eyes,
and all to good result. Finally the disease princi-
pay settled in my body, limbs and feet and at times
in an aggravated way
Last sum ner | was, from some cause, weak in my
spine and kidneys, and it at times very hard to
retain the urine. Seeing your advertisement in the
Commercial, bought bottle of VEGETINE, and
commenced using according to directions. In two OF
three days obtained great relief After using four
or five bottles noticed it had wonderful effect on
the rough, scay blotches on my body and legs.
still used VEGETINE and the humorous sores one at
ter another disappeared until they all gone, and
attribute the of the two diseases to VEGETINE
and nothing else,
If / am ever affected with anything sOf the kind
again shall try VEGETINE the only reliable rem
edy. Once more accept my thanks, and believe mt
to be- Very respectfully, AUSTIN PARROTT.

unpleasant, and at times they become the most DIS
tressg and dangerous diseases that can affect tne
human system. Most diseases o. the Kidneys arise
from impuritie in the blood, causing humOrs which
settle on these parts. VEGETINE eXcels any known
remedy in the whole world for cleansing and purify
ing the blood thereby causing healthy action to all
the organs of the body.
