wrong action of the liver effects the other
important parts Of the system, and results
variously, in Liver Complaint, Jaundicc,

every symptom that might indicate wrong
action of the Liver. These Pills being COM
posed of ROOTS and PLANTS furnished by
nature to heal the sick: Namely, Ist, An

Loses by Religion.

Near London there dwelt an ole
couple. In early lite they had beer
poor; but the husband became Chris.
tan, and God blessed their industry
and they We're living in comfortable cir
cumstances, when one day stranger
called on them to ask their subscription
- a charit. The old lady had less re
llgion than her husband, and still hank
cred after some of the Sabbath earnings
and easy shillings which Thomas had
forfeited from regard to the law of God.
So when the visitors asked their con-
tributions, she interposeI, and said,
"Why, sir, we have lost good deal
since we first began; my husband
knows that very well. Have We not,
Thomas ?"
After a solemn pause, Thomas ans
wcred, "Ycs, Mary, We have. Before
l got reli igion, Mary, l had an old
slouched hat, tattered coat, and me
ed Shoes and stocking but | have
them all long ago. And, Mary. you
know that, poor as I was, l had habit
Of getting drunk and quarrelling with
you; and that you know have lost.
And then I had burdened conscience
and wicked heart and ten thousand
guilty fears but all are lost, completely
lost, and lik, mill stone cast into the
deepest sea. And, Mary, you have
been a loser too though not so great Il
loser as myself. Before We got religion,
Mary, you had washing tray, in which
you washed for hire; but since then
you have lost your washing tray. And
you had gown and bonnet much the
worse for wear; but you have lost them
long ago. And you had many an aching
heart concerning me at times; but those
you haze happily lost. And l could
even wish that you had lost as much as
I have lost; for what we lose by religion
will be an everlasting gain"
The inventory of losses by religion
runs thus; bad character guilty
conscience a troublesome temper !,
sundry evil habits, and set of wicked
companions.
The inventory Of blessings gained by
religion, includ all that is worth having
in time and eternity.

From Punchs Pocket Book
The Last Fly OF Sum mer.
'Tis the last fly Of summer;
Left buzzing alone;
All its black-legged companions
Are dried up or gone.
Not one of its kindred
No blue bottles nigh,
To sport mid the sugars,
Or in the milk die.
Til not doom thee, thou lone one,
A victim to be;
Since the rest are all vanished,
Come dine you with me;
Thus kindly / scatter
Some crumbs of my bread,
Where thy mates on the table
Lie withered and dead.
But soon you will perish,
I'm sadly afraid,
For the glass is at sixty
Just now in the shade.
When wasps have all vanished,
And blue-bottles flown,
No fly can inhabit
This bleak world alone.
