The Best Cure for Sorrow.

Attempts to drown the sense of misfortune
in strong drink are the climax of human folly
Ixtoxicalion eventually sggsavates and inten-
sites every evil which it is invoked to allevi-
ate. 1t has been this from the day when
man first "put m enemy in bis mouth to
steal away his braips," ard thus it will be to
the end Of time. No sane and sober man
denies the fact. Even the habitual iruDkard,
in his brief intervals OF reason, shudderingly
admits it. Yet thousands of intellectual be-
ings-many Of them richly endowed with
mental gifts-seek consolation from the bot
tie in the hour Of affection, though revelu-
tion, history, observation and instinct alike
teach them that Of all the broken reeds upon
which weakness ever leaned, the falso excite
ment caused by liquor is the most treache-
rous. 1t is passing strange lone of those
anomalies to which philosophy furnishes no
clue, and for which we can only account by
supposing that power Independent Of them
selves, against whose influence mere reason is
no sure protection, betrays men into ruin.
There are only two genuine salves for sor-
rOw--prager and aoork. Trust in God and
keep doing is the bestrecipe for every human
care. There are no wounds of the spirit
which it will not heal Strength, fortitude,
p. ,ience, resignation are as sure to be vouch.
saied to the unfortunstes who earnestly pray
for them, and at the same time are diligent
in the performance Of their temporal tasks,
as the harvest is to follow the planting of the
seed. Duty is ba'Samic. Peace is the child
Of worship. s,- ;, 49,, 49,.
