’Twas winter, and some merry boys
To their companions beckoned,
And forth they ran with laughing tongues,
And much enjoyed my second.
And as the sport was followed up,
There rose a gladsome burst,
When lucklessly amid their group
One fell upon my first.
There is with thoso of larger growth
A winter of thesoul.
And when they fall, too oft, alas!
They evidence my whole.

My first of anything is half;
My second is complete,
And so remains until onco more

Companies in this country , in the manufacture
of the cheap class of Watches, which give no
satisfaction as to accuracy, and are inferior
as to durability, so that the public can rest
assured that any Watch bearing their trade
mark is a perfect and reliable Time-keeper,
and will give permanent satisfaction. The
