TOUCHING THE RAINBOWI 0111) BACON, (liat quaint tlisJ coverer, announced that “ where a rainbow seeineth to bang over, or to touch, there breaketh forth sweet smell.’’ Pity ’f is that so few of these grave philosophers of flic old time can be taken quite seriously in this white light of tbe new. There was Augustine, the esteemed saint, who assured the faithful that be had actually seen in yKthiopio many men and women having no heads, but largo eyes fixed in their breasts—in other respects like himself—and also men that bad a single eye, and that in the forehead. Augustine bad an opulent imagination, But there is a soul ef reality in these fictions. There are to this day many folk whose eyes are, to all intents and purposes, in their stomachs. And if you arc willing and wise, you may still get into the path of the rainbow. You may warm your leisure with delight, and fill your dullest hours with a rar redeeming sweetness. You may have your nerves as liar moniously responsive as t lie strings of a master’s harp. All that you need to do is to eschew all inferior and noxious beverages, and to place jour trust in the wonderful qualities of SURATURA TEA There is no other like it.
