Forget Your Injuries.

lie is unwse and unhappy-eXtremely so
who never forgcts the injuries he may
have received They come across his heart,
like dark shadows, when the sunshine of
happiness would bless him, and throw him
into n tumult, that not easily subsidies. The
demon of hate reigns in his bosom, and make
him of all accountable creatures the most
miserable.
Have you been injured in purse or charac-
ter? Let the smiling angel of forgiveness
find repose in your bosom. Study not how
YOU may revenge, but the best way to return
good for evil. ii was the constant habit OF
Bishop Boulter to forgive all who injured
him, and he always enjoyed peace of mind.
After his death,the following lines were writ
ten by one ofhis friends. They are no less
beautiful than true:
Some write their wrongs n marble; he more
STOPPED down serene and wrote them in the
dust;
Trod under foot the sport of every wind,
Swept from the earth, and blotted from his
mind
There buried in the dust he babe them lie,
And grievcd they could not 'scape the Al
,mighty's eye.
Children, relations, friends, honors, hou-
-ses, lands, and endowments, the goods OF ma
ture and fortune, nay, even of grace itseif,are
only lent. 1t is our misfortune 10 fancy they
arc given. We start, therefore, and are ang-
nv when the loan is called in. We think our
selves masters, when we are only stewards, and
forget that to each Of us will it one day be
said, "Gve an account of thy stewardship,
for thou must be no longer steward."-B'Sh'

The proprietor has such confidence in these
Pills, that he would say to all persons who
may purchase a box of them, that if, after tax
ing one or two doses in accordance with direc-
tons, they should not be satisfied with them,
the money paid will be refunded, or the charge
for the same cancelled, by returning the box
in a useable condition, with the remainder of
the Pills. Agents selling them are requested
to conform to this rule.
If you or your family have been in the habit
of using pills, try them, and you Will lind them
as good, if not better in many respects, than
any you have ever used before. Do not say to
yourself, | should be glad to buy box of
them, but there are so many kinds before the
public already, some recommended for one
thing, others for another, and the rest for eve
ry thing, that have no confidence in any of
them, believing them all to be made for specu-
lative purposes. Without doubt, many pro-
prictory medicines are too highly recommend.
ed, and made merely for speculation. All this
may be; but these Pills will be found to answer
as general thing, the purposes for which they
are designed.
Try them and see for yourself, if you dc
not like them return the box with the remain
der of the pills and they will cost you moth
ing. Call for Masta's Pills and see that the
name is on the box.
