We Shall tilt “Heap as We Have

One of the sweetest and purest feel
ings the heart can know, is the pleas
ure which results from a consciousness
>f hating bim-fitted, even in the small-
sat degree, one of our fdllow-creaiures.
It is the heat panacea for our own sot-
row; and the only way to become per
manently happy is to forget self aud
live for others. It is a hard lesson to
learn,but the trnnquil pleasure it brin&s,
tlmn compensates for the self-
sacrifice.
We mqy not have it in our power to
do good on so fp-ftud it scale us to fcx-
cite the admiration cf the woHd; but
remember tliat some of tiie no
blest heroisms have been achieved in
humble life. The noble Florence
Nightingale tiid her work In lifer place;
we can do our work in outs, ami
our Father who seeth in secret will
give us our just reward. As “Tit-
coinb” says, C ‘I would rather be that
our influence, therefore we pay too lit
tle attention to the manner in which it
h exerted. We all possess, in differ-
ut degrees, power for good or evil
iver those with whom we come in
contact. Have wo not all felt our-
*s better and nobler, and even felt
the very air of the room to be purer,
when a good mun or woman has just
left our side?
It is in oui- pbwer to sow grain or
scatter thistles, as it pleases us, along
the highway of life—only, when the
harvest time comes, we shall all “reap
we have sown.”

Ihe True Hay to Invigorate.
The true wu> to invigorate a feeble
system is to iufusc activity into the
operations of the stomach, Hitt won
drous alembic iu which the food is
transmuted into the constituents of
tlio blood, the chief clement of our
vitality. Hostcttej**s Stomach Bitters,
because it accomplishes this jend, is
greatly to bo preferred id many so
called tonics, useful ipdeed as appeti
zers, but inoperative as aids to diges
tion and assimilation. This sterling
cordial, while it invigorates the stom
ach, healthfully stimulates the liver,,
bowels, and kidneys, ensuring Ihe es
cape through the regular ehfp,».uuls of
effete and useless matter thn .wn off
by the system, which is thus purifled
as well as invigorted by it. Its tonic
influence is soon made manifest br an
increase of vital energy and a moro
active and regular discharge ot every
physical function, ut.d it has the fur
ther effect of rendering the system
uuns&uilable by malarial epidemic.
Babies ought to be tvell taken
care of; their system does pot al
low ,tbe sligbtc t neglect. If your
Baby sufiers iritpj Colic or Bowel
Disorders,, procure a bottle of Dr.
Bull’s Baby .Syrup, a sitnpie but
