said that belief in appari;ions is natural
to every man. However much we may dis
sent from the correctness of such gene
raj assertion, there can be no boubt that
its foundation is in truth. The faith of a
child in this particular is only gradually
sapped as he grows up to be man.
Nay, even in mature life, there may al
ways be found those who have an unwa-
vering confidence in the reality of these
illusions, and many of these are persons
characterized by their moral courage and
love of thruth. l have just remarked
that few things have exerted a greater
influence on the career of the human race
than firm belief in these spiritual vista
tions. The visions of the Arabian proph
ct have ended in tincturing the daily life
of half the people of Asia and Africa for
a thousand years. A spectre that came
in to the camp at Sardis unnerved the
heart of Brutus, thereby put an end to
the political system that had made the
great republic the arbiter of the world.

Why JEwEssEs ARE BEAUTIFUL.-Cha-
taubriand gives fanciful but an agreea-
BILE reason for the fact that Jewish woman
are so much handsomer than the men of
their nation. He says Jewesses have es-
capped the curse which alighted upon their
fathers, husbands and sons. Not Jew
ess was to be seen among the crowd of
priests and rabble who insulted the son of
God, scourged Him, crowned Him with
thorns, and subjected Him to infamy and
the agony of the cross. The woman of
Judea believed in the Savior, and assisted
and soothed Him under affliction. A wo-
man of Bethany poured on His head pre-
cious ointment, which she kept in vase
Of alabaster. The sinner annointed His
feet with perfumed oil, and wiped them
with her hair. Christ, on his part, exten-
ded mercy to the Jewesses. He raised
from the dead the son of the widow
Main, and Martha's brother Lazarus. He
cured Simon's mother-i in law, and the
woman who touched the hem of His gar
ment. To the Samaritan woman He was
a spring of living water, and passionate
judge to the woman in adultery The
daughters of Jerusalem wept over Him !;
the holy woman accompanied Him to Cal
vary ; brought Him balm and spices /;

TNHIS philanthropist has spent the greater
part of his life in travelling, having visit
ed Europe, Asia and Africa, as we'll as North
America-has spent three years among the In
dians of our w estern country. ltwas in this
way that the Indian Root Pills were first dis
covered. Dr. Morse was the first man to es-
tablish the fact that all diseases arise from M
PURITY OF THE BLOOD that our strength,
health and life depended upon this vital fluid.
When the various passages become clogged,
and do not act in perfect harmony with the
different functions of the body, the blood loses
it's action, becomes, thick, corrupted and dis
eased thus causing pains, sickness, and dis
t.ess of every name our strength is exhausted, /,
our health we are deprived of, and if nature is
not assisted in throwing off the stagnant hu-
mors, the blood will become choked and cease
to act and thus our light of life will be forever
blown out How important then that we should
keep the Various passages of the body free and
open, And how pleasant to us that we have
it in our power to put medicine in your reach ,
namely, Morse's Indian Root Pills, manufac-
tured from plants and roots which grow around
the mountainous cl ifs in Natures garden, for
the health and recovery of diseased man. One
of the roots from which these Pills are made IS
Sudorifc, which opens the pores of the skin,
and assists Nature in throwing out the inner
parts of the corruption within The second is
plant which is an Expectorant, that opens
and unclogs the passage to the lungs and thus
in soothing manner, performs its duty by
throwing off phlegm and other humors from
the luns IS by cor ious splitting: The third is
Diuretic, which gives ease and double strength
to the Kidneys; thus encouraged. they draw
large amounts of impurity from the blood,
which is then thrown out bountifuliy by the
urinary or water passage, and which could not
have been discharged in any other way: The
fourth is Cathartic, and accompanies the
other properties of the Pills while engaged in
purifying the blood the coarser PARTICLES OF
impurity which cannot pass by other outlets,
are thus taken up and conveyed off in great
quantities by the bowels. A
