The Peruvian Syrup, which is now so popu
lar, deserves ITS renown. because 1t has proved
itself to be Indispensable to all inyalids. There
is nothing like 1t to bring up the weakened
powers Of man. The stomach, which ia com
pared to the citadel" is at once acted upon by
it, It's powers are renewed, its work OF diges-
ton is promoted, and all the blessings resulting
therefrom are supplied by its use. Food is
assimilated to the system. and it, in turn, is
strengthened to do its normal work. The bust
ness man whose energies have been run down
by over close attention TO business; the pro-
fessional man suffering from the same cause !;
the seeker after pleasure who has made too
heavy drafts upon his stock of health, are all
benefited by it's use. In word, the use of the
Peruvian Syrup is recommended to all who feel
the approach OF lassitude and weakness from
whatever cause. Every druggist keeps it,

Tread softly, speak In gentle tones,
flushed be our grief although we weep.
For Christ has come and claimed His own
" he glveth His beloved Sleep"
We called her all our own, and love
Fain would have kept her with us still.
But God knew best she has suffered long
And patiently fulfilled His will.
Smooth back the tresses from her brow.
Fold the tired hands away to rest;
She'll need no more our loving care,
Or heed our tenderest caress.
But love that lives when all else dies
Shall triumph Ger her early tomb.
And be renewed in Paradise
This shall dspel all thoughts Of gloom.
BRING flowers to deck the fair. white brow
And their sweet fragrance round her shed
Our darling isian angel new,
AT home with Christ-she 10 not dead
Well think Of her as gone before;
She lis not dead but risen" higher
Into that life of endless Joy.
And this shall our sad hearts inspire
With abiding comfort; God knew best
The fitting hour to call her home.
To crown her with eternal rest,
Where suffering can never come.
Surely " He doeth all things well"
He chastens, but IN tenderest love,
And sometimes takes our loved ones hence,
Doubtless our faith in Him TO prove,
He knows within our heart OF hearts,
Our treasures live; and if to heaven
He gathers those to US most dear,
Our love will then to Him be given.
Shall we not trust HIM Is there aught
Beneath the sky which e'er will prove
a sure support in life, or death,
Like to our heavenly Fathers love?
