SUFFERING FOR A LIFE NE.-Persons
afflicted with rheumatism often suffer for
life time, their tortures being almost with
out remission. The joints and muscles of
such unfortunates are in most cases shock
ingy contorted and drawn out Of shape.
To afford them even temporary relief the
ordinary remedies often prove utterly use
less. Hostctter's Stomach Bitters, on the
other hand, is avouched by persons who
have used it, to be genuine source of re-
lief. II keeps the blood cool by promoting
a regular habit of body, and removes from
it impurities which, in the opinion of all
rational patho!ogsts, originate this agoniz-
ing complaint and its kindred malady, the

mittent fcvcrs, promote appetite and sleep,
and are highly recommended by physicians
as desirable medicinal stimulant and

ran as follows;
A seaman in the merchant service, who

Thy bark has spread its snowy sail.
As on it bears before the gale,
On LIES wide sea;
The sun, late risen from the east,
His arrows g0iden-hued release
To shower on thee,
And form a track Of molten light,
That guides thy bark far out OF sight.
While mine along the shore line lays,
Wrapped in a cloud ofpurple haze,
And idly floats.
Where wild birds build, and sea-gulls soar
And Memory's shell has caught once more
Thy lute's low notes.
From breezesskind that round me blow,
Whose gentle wings have famed thy brow
Ny bark did once attempt TO sail
In seas so high thine, too. would fail,
And sink, and die.
But floating sail, and topmost mast
We're hurled and shivered by the blast
That swept them by.
And now II seems content TO float
Round messy rocks and shore remote,
Where thro' the mist andlsummer rain.
Come on the waves with their refrain,
And dreams of thee.
And yet they bring a sure belief,
That thou in times OF Joy and grief
Dost think OF me-
And should my bark, in mood unkind,
Start rom its mooring, bent TO ind
Thine own afar,
As on the ocean-path it sped,
The ripples from its helm that spread
Thy calm would mar.
Then let it rest, far out OF sight,
o Pilot OF the magic might,
Away from thee.
Let others hear thy Iute's low sigh,
AS DER the sea thy bark dost fly
Away from me.
IT'S best for me that / should hear
The signing OF the land breeze here.
