we viii simply say that she is lady who
for t1pwards of thirty years has untiringly
4 devoted her time and talents as a female
-Physirfan and nurse. principally among
children. She has especially studied the
constitution and wants of this numerous
class, and, as q result of this effort, and
practical knowledge, obtained In n life
time spent as nurse and physician, she
has compounded Soothing Syrup for
children teethipg. X operates like magic
giving rest and health, and IL moreover,
sure to regulate the bowels. In conse-
Quence of this article, Mrs. Winslow is
becoming world-renowned as a benefac-
tor OF her race; children certainly do rise
up and. bless her, especially is this the
case IN this city. Vast quantities ofthe
Soothing Syrup are daily sold and used
here. We think Mrs. Winslow has inn
moftalized her name by this invaluable
article, and we sincerely believe thou

an early grave by its timely use, and that
millions yet unborn will share its benefits
and unite In calling her blessed. No

In cold sepulchral marble stone,
Where sweetly sleep on ev ry hand
Loved forms but now to mem 'ry known

The orange blossoms ola bride,
But whose sweet face well see no more,
TIL death his secret shall confide.
Alas how changed the bridal now,
From joyous songs and sounds OF mirth,
Fears, tears fall on her marble brow,
And she is now the bride Of earth.
Slt earth can only claim its own;
Beyond this sublunary sphere
The Ruler of the Great White Throne
Cries welcome, blessed spirit, here.
The virtues of stainless heart,
And bounteous hand she only knew,
And sought In life to all impart
Her gentle nature, warm and true.
Tho loving hearts may grieve her loss,
And kindred breasts with sorrow weep,
Remember He who bore the cross ?
His promises will ever keep.
Then let the stars of morning sing,
The Sons of God their harps employ,
While borne upon seraphic wing,
She enters in the courts Of joy.
The power of time and tomb shall end,
And she In spotless robes arise,
Her peerless form and soul to blend
Within the wales of Paradise.
The Young and old shall greet her there,
In converse meath the heavenly shade,
Where all ambrosial fruits shall share,
And wear the crowns that never fade.
