Wait but moment,

You will not wait?
Then go! But when call,
When turning round
You catch my eye,
Which never leaves you,
Though youtry
To look at Mary
With her cherubs there,
At Catherine or Europa,
Or even at Her
Young Raphaels Virgin,
You lctu come to me.
You cannot choose
Or even linger,
Lest you lose
One word 1 say,
When the dim smile
Breaks into words,
Which all this while
You have been waiting for;
When now at last
TO you alone
hold so fast.
Who will laugh too,
And see it through and through,
And share the fun
To you who came
Because you needs must come,
l tell it all.
And yet only smile?
True. 'Twas in vain
You left them all
And came.
And yet tomorrow
You will come again.

The Best Evidence.

The following letter from Rev. E. S. est Pastor of
the NJ. E. Church, Natick, Mass, will be read with
interest by many physicians; also those suffering
from the disease afflicted the son of the Rev.
Z. S. Best. No person doubt this testimony, as
there is doubt about the curative power of VEG
ETINE.
NATIcK, MASS, JAN. list, 1873.
MR.. H. R. STEVENS:
Dear Strive have good reason for regarding your
VEGETINE medicine of the greatest value. We
feel assured that it mas been the means OF saving
sons life. He is seventeen years of age for the
last two years he has suffered from necrosis of his
leg caused by scrofulous affection, and was far
duced that nearly all who saw him thought his re-
covery impossible. A council of able physicians
could give us but the fantest hope of his rally
ing; two of the number declaring that he beyond
the reach of human remedies, that even amputation
could not save him, as had not vigor enough to
dure the operation. just then we commenced giving
him VEGETINE and from that time to the present
he has been continually improving He has lately
resumed studies, thrown away his crutches and cane
and walks about cheerfully and strong.
Though there is still some discharge from the OPEN
ing where his limb lanced, we have the fullest
confidence that in little time he will be perfectly
cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles of VEGE-
TINE but lately but little, he declares he is
too well to be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,
E.. BEST,
