The Poets Joy.

Through fields of dream his pathways lie,
Far from the worlds discordant throng;
There every flower that greets his eye
Hides in its fragrant soul a song.
The brooks his brothers are; the trees
To him their sylvan lore impart;
He finds a message In the breeze
"A lyric IN the roses heart.
And this the great Joy OF his gifts
Some modest fancy from the sod
To fashion into song to lift
The minds of men UP close to God.

The manufacturers of Castoria have
been compelled to spend hundreds of
thousands Of dollars to familiarize the
public with the signature of Chas. H..
Fletcher. This has been necessitated by
pirates connterfeiting the Castoria trade

only against the proprietors Of Castoria,
but against the growing generation. All
persons should be careful to see that Cas-
toria bears the signature of Chas. II.
Fletcher, if they would guard the health
of their children. Parents, and mothers
in particular, ought TO carefully examine
the castoria advertisements which have
been appearing in this paper, and to re-
member that the wrapper of every bottle
of genuine Castoria bears the fac-simile
