this State is but an index of the great
good that it is doing-nOt only in this
vicinity, not only in every eastern State.

beyond question the most reliable pro-
duction of modern medical science.
Nobody disputes it.

that most eminent of American phySic-
ians, Prof. Edward f. Phelps, it has
been recommended, prescribed and its
merits extollpd by the ablpst of physic-

Like amber pins.
At evening. every wave Of our blue sea

A fragment of the sunsets mystery
A ffeck Of gold.
The crimson mist II on the alder trees
In places lush,
The willow buds are tossed by every
breeze,
Like bits OF plush.
Lord God. for some Of u the days and
years
Have bitter been:
For some OF US the burden and the tears,
The gnawing sin.
For some Of as. o God. the scanty store,
The failing bin:
For some OF us the gray wolf at the door.
The red. within!
But 10 the hungry Thou hast given meat.
Hast clothed the cold:
And Thou hast given courage strong and
sweet
To the sad and old.
And 50 we thank Thee. Thou NEST tsn-

For the leaf and flower:
For the tempered winds. ara euickening,

And the gracious shower.
Yea generous God, we thank Thee sor

Where at the doors no freezing h<~ra-s
