now to the market to make purchases" They
went to the baker. "I1ast thou good bread q

him of Kufa, that butter is better than bread
which was compared to it, and we shall do bet.

A well-known Arabian horse steaer once re.

desert: 81 once, as was astray in the desert
came to tribe Of Bedouns. They received me
with great hospitality, and killed camel every
day on my account. prayed them not to pu,
themselves to such inconvenience, but let me
depart. Still they would not suffer me to 60
and every day they killed canned. At length
one day got an opportunity, drove offa fee
camel, and mounted it, and went away with al
speed. The owner who saw me going off with
his camel, mounted and pursued me. Wher
he had brought me back, he pointed to snake
that was lying in the sand 'Seest thou sale

pastoral valley. A good man had been appoint

pastoral valley. A good man had been appoint
ed from home to take charge of this flock in the
wilderness; and the congregation, consisting
Of about forty eight families, had welcomed their
minister with every demonstration Of affection
and esteem, 10 his new abode.
The Sunday following the little church was
crowded with happy faces, and the happiest and
the proudest man there was Robert Harden, as
he led into the sanctuary he had contributed 80
largely to raise, his widowed mother and his
young blooming bride. He felt that he owed all
to God, and his heart overlooked with gratitude
to his great benefactor.
After the disuse Of years, how solemnly the
public service Of God appeals to every heart
It is as if a voice from Heaven spoke to man,
reproving him for his past SINS and admonish-
ing him for his future and eternal welfare.--
During the first impressive address. many eyes
filed involuutarily with tears, but when Mr..
Gordon gave out the favourite and well-known
paraphrase,
o God of Bethel, by whose hand
Thy children still are fed,
Who through this barred wilderness
Hast all our fathers led.
The voice Of weeping, which could no longer be
suppressed, was heard from one end Of the
church to the other. 1t was the simple voice Of
nature, which, unrestrained by the cold formal
etiquette of society, poured forth its own plain.
tive language to the throne Of God.
Don't be ashamed Of your tears, sister Jessy,
whispered Mrs. Harden to her sister, who was
struggling TO conceal her emotion; we may be
proud that ye are permitted this day to weep be-
fore the Lodi
The rest Of the day was spent in the solemn
services Of religion. The following morning
the inhabitants Of the valley assembled in their
best attire to celebrate the marriage Of their ia.
vourite, Robert Harden, and his cousin Anne
Clifford.

THIS preparation has now stood the test of several
years trial. and is confidently recommended as safe
and edec,,ia medicine for expelling worms from the
| system. The unexampled success which has attend.
ed its administration in every case where the patient
was really afflicted with worms, certainly renders II
worthy the attention of physicians.
The proprietor has made it point TO ascertain the
result of its use in such cases as came within his
knowledge and observation-andh he invariably found
it produce the most saluary eiIects-not nnequeni-
y after nearly all The ordinary preparations recom-
mended for worms had been previously resored 10
without any permanent advantage The fact is at
tested by the certificates and statements of hundreds
of peca Bile cer different parts ofthe country
and should induce families always to keep phlaI OF

TIL. subscriber deems ii his duty the above
precautions in order TO guard the public against mis-
taking other worm preparations fer his deservedly
| popular Vermfuge.
This medicine has been known but short time in
Burlington but through the wester States has been
the most popular and efficient worm remedy for Pc
riod of nearly Is years being used in the practice Of
regular physicians.
In the Canadas where il has been known but about
two years the sales have been very great being abou
500 gross. The Surgeons of Her Maesy's troop.
and local physicians make constant Use Of it IN the
practice.
CAUTYON-There is an article called "Kom

house of Comstock q Co., of New York, which is re
presented as being the same as Fahnestock" This
is not the case, for Kom>tock's l, base imitation
preserving none of the virtues of our excellent medi
