REoPESISG A THoRouGHFARE.-In or
der 10 guard against results utterly sub
versive TO health, it is absolutely essential
that the great thoroughfare or avenue of
the system, the bowels, should be reopen
ed as speedily as possible when they be-
come INSTRUCTED. II they are not, the bile
is misdirected into the blood the liver be-
comes torpid; viscid bilious matter gets
into the stomach, and produces indiges-
ton; headaches ensue, and other symp-
toms are produced. which a proloagation
of the existing cause only tends to aggra-
vate. The aperieat properties OF Hostel
ter's Stomach Hitters constitute a most use
iul agent in overcoming construction OF the
bowels, and promoting a regular habit of
body. II is infinitely superior to the dras-
tic caihartics frequently used for the pur-
pose, since it does not. like them. act vio-
lently, but produces a natural, painless et-

.evacuatory organs, which it inyisorstes in
stead OF weakens. The stomach and liver,
also, indeed, the entire system is strength

FACES IN THE FIRE.

Oh, time was young, and life was warn
When first saw the fairy form,
Her dark hair tossing in the storm;
And fast and free these pulses play'd,
When last / met that gentle maid,-
When last her hand in mine was laid.
Those locks of jet are turn'd to gray,
And she is strange and far away,
That might have been mine own TO
day
That might have been mine own, my
dear,
Through many and many happy yeal
That might have sat beside me here.
Ay, changeless through the changing
scene,
The ghos.!y whisperings between,
The dark refrain Of might have been,'
The race is Ger | might have run,
The deeds are past l might have done,
And sere the wreath might have won.
Sunk in the last faint fiickering blaze:
The vision of departed days
Is vanish'd even as 1 gaze.
The pictures with their ruddy light
Are changed 10 dust and ashes white,
And am left alone with night.
ALL the Year Round.
