Lake Morey.

This lovely water, whose praises | sound,
Hides in region where beauties abound,
Shuns the worlds tunult and nestles between
Two modest mountains clad wholly in green.
These shady retreats of partridge and hare
With well wooded slopes, meet two meadows fair,
And their bright carpets encrcle the strand
Where the waves gently are splashing the sand.
When the brisk breezes, subsidng to rest,
Leave not zephyr to ruff1e its breast
This dainty mirror reflects to the eye
The distant white clouds that float thro' the SKY .
1t shows the mountain from sumit to base,
The grove that borders its silverv face,
And each idle boat chained fast to a stake
Has a bold shadow reversed n the lake.
Let the eye ramble DER woodland and mead
O'er point and inlet, where fancy may lead
Rest on the island, or linger on shore,
They all have the power of charming more.
Then to this lakelet, secluded and calm,
No longer delay awarding the PALM
He that speaks fairly in fairness may call
Fairlces fair water the fairest of all.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local application as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be DESTROY
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
