The"Pleasures of Life." —Young men who are
given to various excesses ought to know that Seigel's
Syrup possesses great tonic properties,which not only
stimulate the system but repair its waste. It produces
spirit and vigour and a keen sense of well-being. It makes
you feel fresh and fit,and begets an appetite several sizes
too large for a timid man.

He smiles as he thinks how you'll break on his wheel;
If the fates upon your destruction be bent,
