 A RHYME OF GOOD FEELING. Thanksgiving time
 Is drawing near And Christmas, too,
 Will soon be here. With pies and jam
 Upon the shelf Cut loose from care,
 Enjoy yourself And reck no whit
 Of griefs that may Conduct you to
 Your grave some day! This life is short And well you know, We haven't long
 Down here below To frolic in AThe bright sunshine. So why should we
 Pause to repine? There's joy for cen The least of us, Tho wicked men
 Are clamorous And many woes
 Beset the way We follow on
 Till old and gray. ' The rose is free.
 The sky above. The breeze that blows Your fellows love And there are smiles To go around. If you'll but try, A way'll @ found To make life as
 You forge along, If not a romp, At least a song.

Editor of the Department of Therapeu-

Unicorn root (HelOnias DiOica) one of
the chief ingredients of DIR. Pierce's Fa-

and always favors a condition which
makes for normal activity of the entire
reproductive system, cannot fail to be

Importance to the general practitioner

vHelonias more fully answers the
above purposes than amy other drug
acith arhich am acquainted. In the
treatment of diseases peculiar to women
it is seldom that case is seen which
does not present some indication for
this remedial agent"
vThe following are among the lead
ing indications for Helonias: Pain or
aching in the back, with leucorrhea;
atomic (weak) conditions of the repro
ductive organs of women, mental de-
preston and irritability, associated with
chronic diseases of the reproductive
organs of women, constant sensation of

If more or less of the above symptoms
are present, no invalid woman can do
better than take DR.. Pierce's Favorite

medical properties of Unicorn root, or

A Nations Strength,


What builds nations pillars high
And It's foundations strong?
What makes 1t mighty to defy
The foes that round 1t throng?
1t is not gold. It's Kingdoms grand
Go down in battles shock;
Its gates are laid on sinking sand,
Not on abiding rock.
Is II the sword? Ask the red dust
or empires passed away.
The blood has turned their stones to
rust.
Their glory to decay.
And is II pride? All. that bright crown
Has seemed to nations sweet
But God has struck It's luster down
In ashes at his feet.
Not gold, but only man. can make
A people great and strong:
Men who for truth and honor's sake
Stand fast and suffer long.
Brave men, who work while others
Sleep
Who dare while others fly
They build a nations pillars deep
And lift them to the sky.
Emerson.
