Mn. j. z. MARsKAL,-Dear Sir: In compli-
ance with your request, make this simple state
,nent of facts. My boy Daniel stuck thorn in
his foot about the FIRST of last June, the thorn
was extracted, and no more thought of it for Is
or 20 days, his foot then began to swell, and III
few days it was opeEed. It discharged large
quantity of matter The discharge continued
for eight days; and then ceased. His foot then
RECOMMENDED swelling and extended up his leg,
thigh, and hip, with violent pain. He then DO
gan to spit from his lungs matter similar to that
discharged from the abscess on his foot then
called in medical ai6, and from the remedies used,
he was alternately better and worse for eight or
ten weeks. During this time a large ,abscess
formed upon the hip, the discharge was large,
and as soon as it ceased, general swelling of his
leg thigh and breast commenced, which was very
hard to the touch, and at times experienced much
difficulty in swallowing. Medical aid seemed of
no further avail. and was discontinued. i then
had recourse to your Z" Magical Pain Eradicator:"
In fcrty-cight hours, from the time commenced
its use, his foot began to soften the swelling on
his hip and breast subsded, and am pleased to
say he is nop tDeu.
again used your remedy in q case of Neu-
ralgia, with great success, giving immediate re-
lief have tried it also for Tooth-Ache, with
MY youngest child, with entire success. .
From the success have had in the use Of
your Z" Magical Pain Eradieator,n have no hesi-
tation in recommending it to the public.
Yours truly,
W. ". HUGHESn

HE'S NONE THE WORSE FOR THAT.

What though the homespun suit he wears
Best suited to the sons Of toll;
What though on coarsest food he fares,
And tends the loom or tills the soil
What though no gold-leaf gilds the tongue,
Devoted to congenial chatl
fright prevails, and not the torong,
The man is none the worse for that
What though within the humble cot
No costly ornament is seen;
What though the wife possesses not
Her satin gowns ofblack and green;
What though the merry household band
Half-naked fly to ball and bait
If conscience guides the heart and hand,
The man is none the worse for that.
True worth is not thing of dress
OF splendor, wealth, or classic lore!
Would that these trappings we loved less,
And clung to honest worth the more!
Though pride may spurn the toiling crowd,
The tattered garb, the crownless hat,
Yet God and Nature cry aloud,
The man is none the worse that

THE PEARL OF GREAT PRICE.

THE PEARL OF GREAT PRICE.
This world their fancied pearl may crave,
IT'S not the pearl for me;
Twill dim its lustre in the grave,
Twill moulder in the sea;
But there's heart of price untold,
Which never can be bought with gold,
The sinking soul twill save;
OBJ, that's the pearl for me.
The miser knocks at Mammon's gate,
'Tis not the gate for me;
From morning dawn, till evening late,
At his bolted door is he;
But there's gate that leads to bliss,
And he that knocks by faith at this,
Shall meier be called to wait;
Oh, that's the gate for me.
Let pleasure chant her syren song,
'Tis not the song for me;
To weeping it will turn ere long,
For this is heavens decree;
But there's song the ransomed sing,
To Jesus their exalted King,
With joyful heart and tongue
Oh, that's the song for me.
