Who They Are.

Who puts me in my little bed
And. ere my little prayer is said.
Is hunting live stock in my head:-
My mother.
Who lectures me four times a week,
And marvels when the wash-tubs leak
That can look so awful meek p
My dad.
Who feeds her cousins" with our ham.
Our cold roast beef and peas and lamb,
But keeps NE short on currant JAM
Our Bridget.
Who, when hide behind a chair
And calmly listen to pair
OF idiots, will almost swear?-
My sister.
Who comes to see us once year
And gives me thirteen cents TO clear
And not return while she is near:-
My maiden aunt.
Who meets me when on errands bent
And says I'll 'be President"
And starts my bank account-one cent?
My wealthy uncle.
Who gives me everything she's got,
And pawns her clothes for what she's not?
Bless her dear heart, I've not forgot
Tis grandma!

notice is to be published in one or more

been cured of Bright's disease of the kid
neys, almost in it's last stages, by the use
of Warmers Safe Cure. was referred
to in that statement, as having recon-
mended and urged DIR. Henion to try
the remedy, which he did, and was
cured. The statement of DIR. Henion is
true, so far as it concerns myself, and
believe it to be true in all other respects.
He was a parishioner of mine and l Wis
tied him in his sickness. L urged him to
take the medicine, and would do the
same again to any one who was troubled
with a disease of the kidneys and liver.

Yesterday and the day before we
copied into our columns from the Roch-

remarkable statement, made by J. B.
Henion, NJ d., gentleman who is we'll
known in this city. In that article DIR,
Henion recounted a wonderful expert

we published from the same paper sec
ond article, giving an account of the
Excitement in Rochester" caused by
DR. Henion's statement. 1t is doubtful
if any two articles were ever published
which caused greater commotion both
among professional people and laymen.
Since the publication of these two ar
1tioles, having been besieged with letters
of inquiry, we sent communication to
DIR. Henion and also one to H. III. Warner
& Co, asking if any additional proof
.couldlbe given to us as to the validity of
the statements published. In answer
thereto we have received the following
