Democratic Sentinel, Volume 11, Number 45, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 December 1887 — The Five Sisters. [ARTICLE]

The Five Sisters.

There were five fair sisters, and each had an aim— Flora would fain be a fashionable dame ; Scholarly Susan’s selection was books; Coquettish Cora cared more for good looks; Anna, ambitious, aspired after wealth ; Sensible Sarah sought first for good health. So she took Dr. Pierca’s Golden Medical Discovery and grew healthy and blooming. Cora’s beauty quickly faded; Susan’s eyesight failed from over-study; Flora became nervous and fretful in striving after fashion, and a sickly family kept Anna’s husband poor. But sensible .Sarah grew daily more healthy, charming, and intelligent, and she married rich. If we are to have wings in the hereafter we don’t exactly see how we are to get our clothes on.— Furnishing Goods Review. The three B’s brought Begret, Beproach, and Remorse to a great political party in 1884. The three P’s, when signifying Dr. Pierce’s Purgative Pellets, bring Peace to the mind, Preservation and Perfection of health to the body. Waiting for the letter that never came is not a circumstance to waiting for a backward sneeze.— Philadelphia Call.
