ROSA LEE.
BY DUDLEY WILLIAMS.
In Beauty's realm she sweetly dwells;
'Twere joy her lovely form to see;
Her tender lips, like fairy bells,
Can raise the twig or bend the tree.
Yet ’tis not Beauty’s charm alone,
That strikes the trembling keys of love;
Nor music from a rosy throne,
That bends a seraph’s ear above.
Within her heart, there throbs a smile
For eyes ablaze with pleasure’s glow—
A tear of pity for the vile—
Of sympathy for grief or woe.
Within its flesh-ribbed prison cell—
The ideal of her soul is bound;
Loves mighty power, what mind can tell ?
It makes a monarch kiss the ground.
Sweet vision I Wingless, angel form—
Fain would I pledge my life to thee;
A shelter through Life’s wintry storm —
A loving heart for Rosa Lee.

HAVE YOU TRIED
JURUBEBA
ARE YOU
Weak, Nervous, or Debilitated?
ARE YOU SO LANGUID that any exertion requires
more of an iffortthan you feel capable of making ?
Then try JUKUBEBA, the wonderful tonic and
invigorator, which acts so beneficially on the se
cretive organs as to impait vigor to all the vital
forces.
It is no alcoholic appetizer, which stimulates for a
short time, only to let the sufferer tall to a lower
depth of misery, but it is a vegetable tonic acting di
rectly on the liver and spleen.
It regulates the Bowels, quiets the nerves,
and gives sueh a healthy tone lo the whole system
as to soon make the invalid feellikcanew person.
Its operation is hot violent, but is character
ized by great gentleness; the patient experiences
no sudden change, no marked results, but gradu
ally his troubles
“Fold their tents, like the Arabs,
And silently steal away.”
This is no new aud untried discovery, but has
been long used with wonderful remedial results,
and is pronounced by the highest medical author
ities, “the most powerful tonic and alterative
known.” Ask your Druggist for it.

Dr. P. L. Tumley, Rome:
Dear Sir : Please send me enough of the
Powders to prepare one quart of yc ur Liver
and Dyspeptic Medicine, prepared by your
self. The bottle full you gave me, when in
Rome, has nearly cured my son; he says it is
giving him more relief than all the medicine
he has taken. He thinks a quart more of
it will entirely cure him. Please send it
immediately, with directions how to prepare
it. If you can send by mail send to this
office; if you cannot send by mail, send by
express to Newnan, Coweta county, Georgia.
Write me what the Powders are worth
and I will send you money by return
mail. Yours, &c.,
