Wouldst thou my friend good health enjoy
Each day and hour your time employ
Secure repose from sickness, ills,
This thou can st do-take Liver Pills;
e dost thou suffer from disease,
Caused by exposure, diet? these,
Or other ills whate'er their name,
Submit at once, and leave the frame,
Like shadows dartirg DER the hills,
In terror flee from LiUcr Pills.
Vicc-lke although they've clung for yenrs,
Encouraged be, nor Yield to Tears,
Repose in quiet, health's bright rills
Peisue the pathway of these Pills.
In childhood, youth, and in old age,
Let cheerful thoughts thy mind engage.
Let others suIer-ievers, chills,
Sure thou art free with Liver Pills.

Grating can be done now, but great care
is necessary. AS the bark peels easily at
this season it should be cut through with
knife, and the saw made to follow the cut,
otherwise the bark may be peeled and bad
wound made 1t is not best to remove all
the buds from the stock before the graft
starts, as there will then be no nducement
for the sap to flow upwards. After the un-
l n of the graft is made and the buds upon
it have started, all those upon the stock be-
low should be removed, in order that the
graft may have the full supply of the sap.
The Tent Caterpillar will hatch into the
"worms" which will at once begin their
ravages upon the foliage. Fortunately these
destructive caterpillars put up "a sign"
without which they might escape notice,
They pitch their 'tents'' at once, and though
these are at frst small they may be readily
seen in the early morning when the dew
makes them conspicuous. Take the tent
when the whole family is "at home" and
|crush It under foot Various devices are
suggested for this, but the hand, with or
without glove, is the best. For the higher
limbs pole with O sw0b attached may lie
|used.
