MY MOTHERS GRAVE.
BY GEORGE d. PRENTICE.

BY GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
The trembling dew drops fail
Upon the shutting flowers like aouls at rest
The stars shine glorlously, and all
save me are biest.
Mother. love thy grave
The violet. with its blossoms blue and mild,
Wave DER thy head-when shall 1t wave
Above thy child?
IT'S bright flower, yet must
Its bright leaves TO the coming tempest bow
Dear mother 'tis thine emblem-dust
Is on thy brow.
And could love TO die,
TO leave untasted llfes dark, bitter stream
BY thee, as erst In childhood lie
AND share thy dreams.
And must llnger here
And stain the plumage OF my slness years..
And mourn the hopes 10 childhood dear
With bitter tears?
Aye, must llnger here,
A lonely branch upon a blasted tree,
Whose last frail leaf, untimely sere,
Went down with thee?
OFT from llfe's wlthersd bower,
In still communion with the past, turn
And muse on thee, the only flower
In Memory's urn.
And when the evening pale
Bows like a mourner on the dim blue wave,
] stray TO hear the night winds wall
Around thy grave
Where is thy spirit flown?
| gaze above-thy look is imaged there;
listen, and thy gentle tone
Is on the air.
oh come. and while here press
My brow upon thy grave, In those mild
And thrilling tones OF tenderness
Bless, bless thy child

reason for regarding your VEGETINE medi-
cine OF the greatest value. We feel assured
that II mas been the means OF saving our sons
life. He is now seventeen years OF age Tor the
last two years he has suffered from necrosis OF
his leg, caused by scTofuous a1ectlOn, and was
so far reduced that neariy all who saw him
thought his recovery impossible A council or
able physicians could give us but the faintest
hope or his ever nllying, two OF them declar-
Ing that be was beyond the reach or human
remedies, that even amp utation could not save
him, as he had not vigor enough TO endure the
operation Just then we commenced giving
him VEGETlNE, and from that time TO the
present he has been continuously improving.
He has lately resumed his studies, thrown
away his crutches and cane, and walks about
cheerfully and strong.
Though there is sill some discharge from
the opening where the limb was lancec, we
ho will be perfectly cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles OF
VEGETlNE, but lately uses but little, as he de.
clares that he Is too well to be taking medi-
