Hero my heart h?gan to thump, And no wonder I felt funky: For the frog, with one big jump, Leap'd hisself into a monkey. Then I open'd wide my eyes, His features for to scan, And observed, with great surprise, That the monkey was a man. But he vanished from my sight, But 1 sunk upon the tloer, Just n& Missus, with n light, Como inside the kitching door. Then beginning to abuse me, She says, "Sarah, you've been di inkin'! I says, "No, mum, you'll excuse me, But I've merely been a-thinking. "But, as sure as I'amn cinder, That party, what you seo ?

We have bad many a hearty laugh over it, and i. our readers will carefully study it thov will Qnd much in it to interest them. Tbc sceno is that of a dilapidated 1 g Cabin in Arkansas. Its Uramali* per svnac is a trapper seated up in an iaver ted tub, playing the first part of a fami liar air upou an old violin, and his wife and children. A stranger enters and the following colloquy takes place: Stranger?"How do you do sir? Are you well ?" Trapper?"Stranger, kin you call ^ mat1 who cats three s'i?nr meals a day drinks hearty, aud sleep sound, woll ?" (Fiddles.) S.? I think I could. How long have you been living hero?" ?I.?D'ye ye see that mountain tbar ?" S.?"Well.' T.?"That worh'yar when I come hyai." (Fiddles.) S,?"Thank you for the informs ? tion." T.?"You're welcome." S.?"Cun I stay here to night ?" .?"Well, you can't stay b'yar." S.?How long will it take to get to the ucxt tavern ?" T.?"Well, you'll not get tberc at all if you stand thar fooliu' with mo all night." (Fiddles.) S.?"How far do you call it to the next tavern ?" X?"I recken it's upward's o's'oinc distance S.?Do you keep any spirits iu this house!" 'f.?"Guess t bur's plouty down in the grave yard." (Fiddles.) S.?"How do you cross the river ahead, T.?The duels swim across." (Fid dles.) S.? How far is it to tbo forks of the road ?" T.?"Tbo road ain't forked yet in these diggius." (Fiddles.) S.?"Where does this road go to?" T.?Well it ain't moved a step biueo I've been b'yar'" S.?'Why don't yoa. repair the roof of your bouse ? It must leak." S,?-Cos it's been raining like all crea tion for three weeks." (Fiddles.) S.? Why dou't you mend it when it's not raining ?" ? T.?Cos, then it don't leak." (Fid dles ) 8.?"Why don't you play the second part of that tuno ?' ? j T.?Cos, I dou't know it. Kin you '." < S.?I can'" T.?"You kin? Look h'yar stranger, nny man who can play tbo secooud part of that tuno can go right iuto Cougrcsa onto it." S.?"Givo me tbo fiddlo." (Taking the fiddlo and plnys cut in: tune.) T.? Yelling with joy.) "Thats it by . goll. Do it agnin stranger, Vahoy ! (shaking hands.) 11'yah make yourself at home. You can stay a week, live and "die here if it's agreeable. Hore, Sal, hxiog out that jug, and go dig some sassafras root and make the stranger a evp of sea. Shako hands again stranger ! By j. oil, your'e a trump?you ar e! Play it again !" Teetotaler* who felicitate themselves on Ibo progress of thejir cause will do well to digest the fed lowing : An old stager was compelled by his worthy spouse to "join tho cold water army," whioh ho did promising never to touoh a drop of anything olso, except in sick ness. So far the story is excellent. But now for the moral. ... The reformed i (dividual has never been teell $incc\ l eb 22d Fever aud Ague, | from which mankind suffer over a largo partof | the globe, is tho consequence of a diseased notion in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm of vegetable decay. This exhalation is evolved by the action of solar bent on wot noil, and rises with the watery vapor from it. While the sun is below tho horizon this vapor lingers near tho earth's aar faer, aad tho virus is taken with it through tho luflgfl into the blood. Thcrait acts as an irritating poison on the internet viscera.and excreting organs of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to socreto not only this virus, but also the bile from the blood. Both the virus and ?hc bile nccumulato in tho circulation, and produce violent constitu tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, nnd the stomach sympathize with the liver, and become disordored'nlso. Finally, the instinct of our pr ganisra, as if In an attempt to expel the noxious infusion, concentrates the whole blood of the body in tho internal excretories to force them to cast tt out. The blood leaves the surfac?, and rushes to the central organs with congestive violence. This is the Chili?. But in this effort it falls. Then tho FbVBR follows, in which the blood leaves the cen tral organs aud rushes to the surface, as if in uuother effort to expel tho irritating poison through that other great excretory?the skin. In tide also it fails, and the system abandons tho attempt exhausted, and waits fiir the recovery of strength to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These are the fits or paroxysms of Pbvbb and Ann:. Such constitutional disorder will of course under mine the health if it itt not removed. Wo have lubored to fiud, and have found, an antidote, Ayer's Ague Cure, whioh neutralises this malarious poison In the blood, aud stimulates the liver to expel It from the body. As it should, so it docs cure this afflicting disorder with perfect certainty. And it docs more, or rather docs what is of more service to those sub ject to this infection. If taken in season it expels it from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keeps those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the system in health although exposed to the disease. Consequently it not only cures, but protects from, the great variety of affections which arc induced bt this malignant influence, such as Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness, Toothache, Karacho, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita tions, Painful Affections of the Spleen, Hyperica, Colic, Paralysis, nnd Painful Alloctions' of tho Stomfich nna Bownls, nil of whit h, When arising from this cause, will be found to assume more or less the intermittent type. This *? Ague CunE" removes the cause of these derangements, and cares tho disease. This it accomplishes by stimulating the excre tories to expel the virus from the system; nnd these organs by degrees become habited to do this their office of their own nccord. Hence nrises what wc term aeclimatation. Time may accomplish the same end, but often life is not 1o?k enough, or ia sacrificed la the attempt, while this " Aau.fc v* rb " does it at once, and with safety. Wc have grunt reason to believe this is a surer 01 well as safer remedy for the whole class of diseases 'which arc caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other which has been discovered ; nnd it has still another important advantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as well as good. rner-AREn nr DR.
