Ere it would die" she said.
Within her arms dead Love lay,
Close nestled as in sleep;
She held it in mother-way,
"It wounded me-" she oft would say,
Ere death. its soul could reap"
Yea. on her breast SO smooth and white,
The wound had gaped upon the night;
She had not seemed to know,
But when the morning came with light
She looked, and 1t was so.

The wound upon her breast it glowed

That fades upon Its last abode,
And melts into the dark.

Of the toothbrush as preventive Of

teri Of disease, and pneumonia germs
are often present in the mouth even Of

that we cannot be to careful in dental

regarded merely as a discomfort, only
