remarkable that we beg to ask for it
the attention of our readers. He says:

a violent bleeding of the lungs, followed
by a severe cough. 1 soon began to
lose my appetite and flesh. l was so
weak at II time that 1 could not leave
my bed. In the summer of 1877 L was
admitted to the city hospital. While
there the doctors said l had a hole in
my left lung as big as a half dollar. 1
expended over a hundred dollars in
doctors and medicines. 1 was so far
gone at one time a report ven around
that l was dead. | gave up hope, but
a friend told me OF DIR. VIM. HALLS
Balsam for the Lungs. l laughed at
my friends, thinking that my case was
incurable, but | got a bottle to satisfy
them, when to my surprise and gratin-
cation, L commenced to feel better.
My hope, once dead, began TO revive,
and to-day L feel in better spirits than
l have the past three, years.
81 write this hoping you will publish
1t, 80 that every one afflicted with Dis
eased Lungs will be induced to take
DIR. VIM. Halls Balsam for the Lungs,
and be convinced that Consumption
can be cured. / have taken two bot
ties, and can positively say that it has
done more good than all the other
medicines L have taken since my sick
ness. My cough has almost entirely
disappeared, and l shall 500 be able to
go to work." Sold by druggists.

In rosy light it lies the earth its urn;
Under the funeral pyre of dying day,
Amid brown leaves and fern;
The soul of fire hath fitted far away
And the still clay, that cannot rise or turn
Content to stay
Amid dead leaves and blossom, day by day
Fast moulders to decay.
Where two have meta stone;
Where two have joy-a sorrow.
Where two have parted, all the ways DER
grown
With yiolets darkly blown;
And MOSES borrow
Fresh verdure from the dust of one that
sleeps;
Where two have stood-one steals to weep
alone,
Here-where the night wind creeps.
In the moons light it lies, no more to burn
With pangs of batiied hope or vain desire
No more to learn
In lifes rude school, and of the lessons tire
From bush TO bush the nightingales inquire
And answer one another in the calm
The glow worm gitters like a fairy lire,
And shadowy arches of the wild rose briar
Weep from their half-elosed blossoms tear,
OF balm
In darkness dun it lies,
All that we prize
All that we seek to earn with sacrifice
OF toll and tears,
For many days and years,
And clasp, aud call our own, but cannot keep
Frail as dream of sleep,
A cloud that flies,
A flower that dies.
