try papers in regard to DR.. Lytle's Elixir,

ease and restoration to health of every

4 SONG or coon COUNSEL.


Brave boys, would yon live wisely,
To God and Nature true,
Hear me, and | precisely
VIII tell You what to do,
This world is no place for weaving
Light webs of fancies grand.
But for firm will achieving
High purposes with strong hand.
If weaklings deem 1t cruel
That life so hard should be,
Deem thou all hard things fuel
For victories meant FOR theel
March on and never weary,
With firm and steady pace
But like the fark be CHEEKY,
And skyward turn thy face.
Who frets prolongs his surrOw,
Who fears makes strong his foe,
And double woe tomorrow
From golden dreams will flow.
Nor dream o doubt, but stoutly
The task that nearest lies
Perform, and wait devOutly
On God, who helps the wise.
He helps no fools, and rightly
Lays vnuntful sinners low,
Who holds the helm not tightly
When windy passions blow,
And everInore in danger,
With gleesome faith be strong,
The devil remains o stranger
To breast that TEEN with song.
And never in thy daring
Dare for myself alone,
But with thy brother sharing
The good that's most thine own.
And the God who sent thee
On life's wide sea to swim,
And this glad being lent thee
10 live ard work Him.
