Boys of muscle, brain and power,
Fit to cope with any thing;
These are wanted every hour. @

Not the watchword of = can't"
But the noble one: I'm try."
Do whate' er you have to do
With true ahd earnest zeal;
Bend your Sinews to the task:
Put your shoulder to the whee.-
Though your duty may be hard,
Look not on it as an ill;
III it be I'M honest task,
Do it with an honest will.
At the anvil, on the farm,
Wheresoever you may be,
From your future efforts, boys,
Comes q nations destiny.

HAS USED THEM FORTY YEARS-R s Day
OF Watsonville, Santa Cruz county, California,
writes February 3, 1885: when my wife was
seventy-three years old she was troubled with
a very bad cough, and ii looked as if she would
die with consumption. She would not call in a
doctor, but commenced taking Brandreth's
Pills, two and three every night. In three weeks
she was completely cured, and her health is
now very good, and am sure the pills prolonged
her life as well as my own, for have used them
forty years, and am now eighty-four years old.
They have been my only medicine"
