tint, buy it. If it is white with blush cast
or with black specks in it, refuse it. Next
examine its sdhesiveness-wet and knesd q
little of it between your fingers; if it works
soft and sticky, it is poor. Then throw lit

Erin, our country; our dear onel
Ssdder our days grow. and sadder;
Never promise before thee.
Hardly record behind.
Ever yearning for greatness,
Ever a crying for freedom.
RIVER failure on failure;
Thy children, untrue, disunited;
Blind men leading blind.
Oh tor a leader to lead US;
o God, for q leader to lead u.s.
To teach US our strength and our weakness,
To tell all the world we are true,
Oh. that one rose up among Us
Who should be as the voice of thee, Erin!-
The CRY for which we have waited.
The cry that has never been uttered
A lesdersto show us our trouble,
And meet it. ana carry US through.
But never the true one arises;
Only false leaders. selfseekers,
Showing the world all our folly,
All that is worst In US, weakest;
Always the selflh aid little,
Never the true and the strong.
Branding US unto the nations
AS one which has battered It's birtnrtght;
Yelling for rights which are no rights,
Leaving unsrOker our wrong.
O. green isle in the ocean,
Land of the soldier who fears not:
Land of the warm hearted comrade,
Land of the true-hearted maid
Fought have our fathers-how noblyl
Songs in the past, in thy sunshine
None can sing now, III the shaded
All Ou- hearts gladness Is dsrkened,
Heavy sname lies upon US.
Fight, Nehave nothing 70 night for.
DishOnored we are. and dismayed.
We hear our own false ones belle us:
We hear how the English miSjudge u.s.
We hear their pity and blame.
But We know the fire OF our spirit,
And we know that we are misunderstanded.
We are proud, and despise al the pity,
And yel We have no voice to speak with.
And needs must abide in our shame.
Not so in olden time. Erin,
Once thou vert famed among Nations
Fer piety, honor aud learning.
Peace, and good will unto men.
Holy men came from aiar of,
Lived tranquil lives in thy shelter,
And among turbulent Nations
Thou sentest glad udings again.
But how we are fallen-are fallen,
DiscoTd and tumult and murder,
Olamor and impotent rawlings,
Are the voices we give TO the world.
We are slaves to our own meanest passions,
The flag CT mad license is brandtshed,
TIE flag of old Freedom is furled.
Because of our love of our country.
Because we are simple and trustful.
Because our hearts soon may be fired,
SO twice be the shame upon those
Who knew it-made Erin the watehwOrd
To make us unworthy OF Erin,
To goad us to murder and madness,
And make US our own hardest foes.
And because Of our love OF our country,
Because we are SIMPLE and trustful,
Because our hearts sOOG may be fIed
0 God that leader would rise
To speak for our des0late county
To snow US the way we may serve her.
To wipe ont our shame and dIshonor,
And open our enemy's eyes!

know Ho, Bitters will bear recommen-
dation honestly. All who use them confer
upon them the highest encomiums, and give
them credit for making cures all the pro-
since they were first offered to the public.
They took high rank from the first and
maintained it, ana are more called for than all
Others combined. So long as they keep up
their high reputation for purity and useful
ness, shall continue to recommend them,
some thing have never before done with any
other patent medicine.
