st. Patrick's Birthday .
BIZ SAMUEL LOVER

On the eighth day of March it was,
Some people say,
That st. Patrick at midnight
He first saw the day,
While others declared
It was the ninth he was born,
And L was all mistake
Between midnight and morn;
For mistakes will occur
In hurry and shock
And some blamed the baby
And some blamed the clock,
Till with all their cross questions
Sure no one could know
If the CLOCK was too fast
Or the child was too slow
Now the first faction fight
In ould Ireland, they say,
Was all on account
OF st patrick's birthday:
For the eighth some would fight,
For the ninth more would die,
And who wouldn't see right,
Sure they just BACKED his eye.
At last both the factions
So positive grew,
That each kept the birthday
So Pat then had two.
Though father Mulrooney
Who pardoned their sins,
Said that no one could have
Two birthdays but twins.
The shelalahs went whack
And the junk bottles few,
Till with whoopin' and swearin'
The air was quite blue.
Maxim slathers of fun
With their inquests and wakes,
All in honor Of him
Who had druv out the snakes
Till his Reverence found,
After some years of war,
Not tinth of them knew
What the ightin' was for
So he cried, eye spalpeens
Now your half dead at laist,
Can't you bark to the words
of your own howly praist ?"
Says he, Don't be fightin'
For eight or for nine;
Don't he always dividing
But sometimes combine;
Just combine eight with nine
Seventeen is the mark
So let that be his birthday"
"Amin," says the clark
If he wasn't twins
Sure our history will show,
That st. Patrick's worth any
Two saints that we know
So they all got blind drunk,
Which completed their bliss,
And we keep up the practice
From that day to this.

There is no exaggeration In the statement that

and elsewhere, breathe air more less impreguated
with miasma, without mourning the disc ase, simply
and only because they are in the habit of using Hos

of DR.. Wlstar's Balsam of Wild Cherry. l

truly indebted to this great remedy for
what 1T has done for me that I send you this
