LOOM OF THE SEA.
Leland-Kingdom, our island,state,
Merry England, where fancy dwells In pageant, pilgrimage, high debate,
And sprightly music of morris-bells; Tourneys for love and battles for hate; Torches, garlands, exultant bella; Challenging trumpets and festal bells Wars of the Roses, land-locked strife,
World-wide wars with France and Spain The colour and pulse of that gallant life- Shall we never recover the mood again? Rhythmic deeds, melodious worda ;- Merry England, the heart of Mirth Songs of lovers and songs of birds;
A bell for death and a bell for birth- Jubilant fifths and sombre thirds:
Pessimist optimist -death and birth! Englishmen only on English earth! Confident, daring, travail and strife,
Battle and storm on the Spanish Main- How shall the fancy that donned that life
Be decked and renewed with such pride
again?
England's fancy shall live again.
Merry England across the seas!- Jewelled with isles of the Spanish Main,
Gifts of the opulent destinies : England's heart and England's brain,
Throbbing and thinking in many seas, Belov'd of the opulent destinies. Bluebird, oriole, bobolink,
Hark to them, hear them how they sing, Where England's Cariadians work and think, Woo and wed in the throng of Spring!
Axes ring on the mountain-sides-
England's gain from England's loss !— Lonely at night the ranchman rides,
Humming a tune to the Southern Cross Argosica on Austral tides,
From Charles's Wain to the Southern
Cross,
Barter the plough for the Southern Cross ! Lord how the English hew their way, Courage aud fortune leading the van, Round the world with the break of day,
Room for him, room for the Englishman!
Saxon, Norman, Danske, Colt, -
Merry England, moth of mirth Gird the world with an English belt,
Englishmen all to the ends of the earth! Gold and grain on Rand and veldr,
Orchards, harvests over the earth- Liners and merchantmen round the earth; Power from east to westerin Ind,
Power and pomp on the Indian Main, And wonder with overy whispering wind To dip our dreams in the dew again. England, docked and dowered by fate--
Room for England, so please you, room! Sea-king's realm, our Ocean-state
Woven upon the world's wide loom ;.. Dyed and tried in high debate,
And over renewed on the world's wide
Loom,
With weaving flects on a world-wide
loom-
Warp and woof of the sea's wide-loom-; Shall garnish fancy in every land
With rhythmic deed and delight again- Merry England from strand to strand,

Lazatino being non-irrit able will be found a great boon, to ladies especially, and in cases where the kidneys are Pirritable or diseased. Laxatino is strongly recommended by the Continental Authorities and is being largely used in the London hospitals. Mesars A. S. WATSON & Co.

anything goes wrong in the body. If a pain attacks you, stop and think what it is and what causes it.
Do you realise what an important work the kidneys do? Do you know that every drop of your blood goes to the kidneys hundreds of times every day to be filtered and purified
It is unfiltered blood that causes back- aches, headaches, rheumatism, nervousness, heart trouble, kidney diseasc, languor, dizziness, sleeplessness, irritability, pufil- nesa beneath the eyes, swollen ankles and limbs, despondency, too much or too little urine, sediment from the urine, gravel, and bladder troubles. It poisons an interferes with the whole system.
