CHERRY COUGH SYRUP Cures BRONCHITIS HE nose has seven ages First It leads Us owner straight Where pies and cookies good ami hot Lla fragrant on the plate Then second age It loves a smell Perhaps of all the bost The sawdust of the circus ring Beats Araby the Blest Third ago It sniffs with great delight From night till dewy morn The perfume of a faded roso A certain girl has worn Next age It goes Into the wars Where falls the battle stroke And In Its nostrils linger long The powder and the smoke Fifth age its happy hours are spent In speeding past the scene While floats on the surrounding air The scent of gasoline Sixth age it finds a pleasure great A Joy vouchsafed to few The faint aroma breathing forth From bank notes crisp and new Then seventh age when crowding years All other aims debar In blissful and uptilted ease It sniffs a good cigar McLandburgh Wilson In Lipplncotts Magazine Sot the Snme I Xjw - Have the Newriches acquired much I believe they have a good many family jars
