Gems of Verse.
The const -nt drop of water Wears away the hardest stone ; Tbe constant gnaw of Towcer Masticates the toughest bone ; The constant cooing lover Carries off the blushing maid. And tho constant advertiser Is the one who gets the trade. The southerly buster at its height, With wind and. rain and sleet, Is bound to givo us every night Wet clothes and cold damp feet-. Bad coughs and colds must then prevail,’ We’ll try to make them fewer, An 1 take n dose of ndver fail— Some Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.
