A Prominent Merchant in Trouble.

Old Monty bag* mopes in bis office ail day. As snappish and cross as a bear; The elerks know enough to keep out of hie way, Last the merchant should grumble and swear. Even Tabby, the eat, is In fear of a cuff Or a kick, if she ventures too near; They all know the master is apt to be rough. And his freaks unexpected and queer. What makes the old fellow so surly and grim. And behave so confoundedly mean? There a certainly something the matter with him— Is it stomach, or liver, or spleen ? We’ve guessed it—hie liver is sluggish and bad. His blood is disordered and foul; It’s enough to make anyone hopelessly mad, And greet his best friend with a growl. The world-wide remedy, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, will correct a disordered liver and purify the blood, tone your Bystem, and build up your flesh and strength. He is a particularly mean thief who would rob the only cardinal we have in the country. ■ The spooks and goblins that delight To fill with terror all the night; That stalk abroad in hideous dreams With which dyspepsia’s fancy teems, Will never trouble with their ills The man who trusts in Pierce’s Pills. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Purgative Pellets—vegetable, harmless, painless, sure! When yon ask a tramp to cut a stick or two for you in exchange for food he generally cuts his stick. —Boston Courier.
