A National Song.
One of the commonest of proverbial
expressions assumes that a song is the
cheapest of all things; yet the richest
country on earth is without a national
song. Thirty years ago it offered six
hundred dollars for one; but the song
was not forthcoming, though the condition of affairs in our country seemed
calculated to call forth all the lyric
energy that any poet possessed.
We" have the "Star-Spangled Banner," and sometimes we sing it. and
make ourselves think we are enthusiastic; but the least critical of us feels
that it is too clumsy to be a good song
or a good poem; and I suspect it has a
fault even more radical than its uncouth rhythm. It is not good art to
make a picture of a picture, or to
symbolize a symbol. To illustrate this,
hold up side by side a photograph
from an oil-painting, and one from life.
Though the American flag is to our
eyes the most beautiful of all one can
line in a forest of shipping in any great
seaport, and though it represents the
finest country and the most progressive people on earth, and though your
heart sometimes comes to your
throat when you think what has been
achieved under it, still, it is only a
symbol. No star-spangled rhymes, or
allegorical representation of Freedom
tearing the sky into strips of bunting,
will ever make an effective and enduring national song. When the song
arrives, we shall find that it somehow
deals directly with the national power
and destiny, not with any conventional
symbol or picture of it.
"Yankee Doodle"- has its uses as a
tune; but no words that are not doggerel ever have been set to it, and it
is doubtful if any can be, Samuel
Francis Smith wrote a respectable
hymn beginning "My Country, 't is of
Thee." But its candicaey for the
national song is killed at the outset by
the fact it is setto the tune of another
nation's hymn. Then, too, how should
we ask some millions of our citizens to
sing "Land where My Fathers Died,"
when they left their fathers' bones in
various parts of Europe?—or how expect nui eh accent on "Land of the
Pilgrim's Pride" from the throats of
those who take no pride in the pilgrims?—Rossiler Johnson, in St. JSTich-
olas.

Wishes to speak through the Register of
the henefieial results he has received
from a regular use of Ayer's Pills._
He says: "I-was feeling sick and tired
and my stomacli seemed all out of order.
I tried a imniber of remedies, hut none
seemed to give me relief until I was in-
duced to try the old reliable Ayer's
Pills. I have taken only one box, hut I
feel like a vevr man. I think they are
the most pleasant and easy to take of
anything I ever used, being so finely
sugar-coated that even a child will take
them.   I urge upon all who are

of a laxative to try Ayer's Eills." —
Boothbay (Me.), Register.
"Between the ages of five and fifteen,
I was troubled with a. kind of salt-
rheum, or eruption, chiefly confined to
the legs, and especially to the bend of
the knee above the Calf. Here, running
sores formed which would scab over,
hut would break immediately on moving the ieg. My mother tried everything she could think of, hut all Jwas
without avail. Although a child, I read
in the papers about the beneficial effects
of Ayer's PUIS, aud persuaded my mother to let me try them. "With no great
faith in the result, she procured
Ayer's Pills
and I began to use them, and soon
noticed an improvement. Encouraged
hy this, I kept on till I took two hoses,
when the sores disappeared and have
never troubled me since."—H. Chipman,
Eeal Estate Agent, Roanoke, Va.
"I suffered for years from stomach
andkidney troubles, causing v?ry severe
pains in various parts of the b*;dy. None
of the remedies I tried afforded me any
relief until 1 began taking Ayer's Pills,
and was cured."—^Vm. Goddard, Notary
