THE OLD SCHOOL- BOOK. On the old school-book, in its dusty nook, With a tearful eye I gaze: Come down, old friend, for an hour we’ll spend In talking of by-gone days, I gaze once more, as in days of yore, On the task that vexed the brain; The lesson done, and victory won, And I feel I.m a child again. And I seem tostand with the youthful band In the old house on the green : I hear the fun ere the school begun, And I join in the gladsome scene. I take my place with a sober face; O’er the well carved desk I bend, And hourly pore o'er the antique lore Os thy wonderful page, old friend. Then our cares were few, and our friends were true, And our griefs were rare and light; The world was naught (so we fondly thought) But a region of pure delight. But time has sped, and our path has led Through the dark and tearful scene; j And passed away are the good and gay, Like the old house on the green. But we'll sing no more of the days of yore, For the tear-drop dims the eye. Sleep on, old book, in thy dusty nook, As in years that have glided by. No guilt we trace in thy honest face, But a mind of gold within Enriched the youth, as they sought for truth, In the old house on the green. < The Opium Habit. Milltown, Chambers Co., Ala , March Ist. 1579. Mr. B. M. Woolley, Atlanta, Ga.: Dear Sir — I hereby certify that I about seven years ago I contracted the habit of using morphine for tooth ache and netirelgia. I commenced by using a small quantity, but the habit grew on me until I could not do on less than one bottle, of sixty grains, per week, and sometimes more. 1 tried every way I could to quit the habit but could not. I commenced using your antidote the 23d day of January, 1878, and left it off on the 9th day of February, 1879. I have no disposi tion now to use morphine, or any other opiates. I feel that my health is greatly improved, and feel under a thousand obligations to you and your remedy. lam sure it will cure any person who will use it as directed. I am yours, gratefully, Matilda A* Clifton. P. S.—You can use this certificate as you please, and may direct any person to me for any information they may desire. M. A. C. I hereby certify that the above cer tificate from my wife is correct and true. ’ G. AV. Clifton. Middleton, Cnambers Co.. Ala. HE FURTHER WRITES. Mr. Woolley: My Dear Friend — I seat myself this morning to drop you a few lines in regard to my wife. She has left off the antidote, is doing finely, and is more lively than she has been for six or seven years. She says that there is nothing on earth that would induce her to return to the use of morphine again. Our home is a pleasant home now to what it has been for the last six or seven years. The children are all highly delighted at the thought of their mother’s release from the terri ble bondage of opiates. Our neigh bors and friends are expressing their gratitude for the gift of a Woolley and his Antidote, and now accept the heartfelt gratitude I feel due you and your great remedy. May you live long and continue to do good to suf fering humanity. lam Yours truly. G. AV. Clifton. The Trade in Candies, Crack ers, Etc- THE HOUSE OF JACK A HOLLAND. WHOLE SALE AND RETAIL DEALERS.
