Far greater—lo per cent, higher—was the number of those who had had no milk, while the others had been fed on very poor food substitutes. The skipper had an awful cough, The night was fierce and dark; Tho rocks were close, the sea was rough; The skipper—"lost his bark." If we wish to "steer" clear from tho rocks of this life, The ills and the chills wo endure, Let us "set a true course" by timely re- i course " ' To Woods' Great Peppermint Cure. —Adrt. 8 ' Farmer Wayback (starting home from . the station*— Please, ma'am, do you wear ' false teeth?"
