EVENING STAR. OCTOBER. BY WILLIS GAYLORD CLARK. Solemn, yet beautiful to view, Mont ue my heart! thou dawnest here, With sad and faded leaves to strew The summer’s melancholy bier.

About the last of the week I went intoa rug store to get some medicine for my child and myself.

He did it, and I com- menced taking it as directed, and I was more ben- efitted by it than all the water and medicine I had ever taken. After reaching home one of my neizhbors came to me for a prescription and icine, (he a dys- peetic) and I gave him nearly all the Bicters } ad left, which effected much good in his case. He has often called on me for more of the same kind of medicine, saying he was more benefittee by it then any ke had taken, but I have noi been able to get any more for him or myself since; will you, therefore, please skip mec a dozen o mere as soon as possible. —, beneStted b: Respectful P yours, W.
