Going Along.

Mary thought she wanted to be q
Christian.
She was almost persua ded to be q
follower of Christ.
At times she wanted this more
than all else; then she thought OF
her home friends, how none Of them
would go with her or encourage her;
so at length she sadly told her
teacher:
"No, I cannot go alone, it is too
hard"
Her teacher could influence her
no further then, but the great Teach
er was preparing a lesson for that
timid heart.
Two years passed on, and a sad
accident happened to her for at
least it seemed an accident to Ma.
ry and her friends, but to the eve of
God 1t was no accident). She was
laid aside from active duties.
Alone God caused her to bear
pain and sorrow. For months, and
even years, she had the solitude of q
sick chamber.
one day she asked her teacher:
do you think God knows any,
thing about my being sick?'
DO l think God knows? exclaim-
ed the sympathizing friend. al
think that it is love that has laid
you aside for these months. Do
you remember long time ago YOU
wanted to be Christian, but said
you could not aloneP
Yes; I've thought Of my wicked |
decision many times.
Has not your heavenly Father
beenteaching you different lesson p
Yes, Pve been longing for his
love and fergiyeness-longing and
suffering all alone,
Have you told him this?"
sMany times
And has he heard you?'
4 sometimes hope so, l know III
want to know where the precious
blood is found-oh,ho swift is Je-
sus' compassion
No painter can put enough of
sympathy in the face of Christ as
he bows over the bruised soul that
had fallen among thieves, and been
left half dead amid the pains of con-
viction.
He came to save, and He will not
break the bruised reed, nor queneh
he smoking fax.

Poke Root

Wherever Poke Root grows, 1t has local
reputation as Blood Purifier, and for the
cure of rheumatism. With all this local
reputation, and the praise of distinguished
Physicians (Drs. Coe, Lee, King, Wilson NJ.
Hunt, Griffits, COPELAND and others,) who
have tested its medical powers; it has been
neglected by the profession at large, as much
through a want of aproper appreciation Of
its merits, as knowledge of the proper way
to prepare it for medicinal use Dr. Oliver
Crook, Ia physician who devotes his entire
time to the duties ofhis profession has fully
tested the active medicinal qualities of Poke
Root during the last 25 years, and unhesi-
tatingly pronounces it to have MORE MERIT
for diseases depending on depraved con-
dition of the blood, than any and all other
articles named in the Materia Medica. Un-
der his instructions our Chemist has COM
bined the active medicinal qualities of Poke
Root with the best Tonic Preparation of
Iron, and we offer this preparation to the
public under the above name.

resch the WestY The best Line is ac-
kuowledged to be the c., b. & O., Joined
together with the B. e NJ. Railroad by
the Iron Bridge at Burlington, and
called the Burlington Route.
The Main line of the Route running
to Omaha, connects with the great Pa
cifc Roads, and forms to-day the lead
iug route to California. The Middle
Branch, entering Nebraska at Platts-
mouth, passes through Lincoln, the
State Capital, and will this year be
finished to Fort Kearney, forming the
shortest route across the Continent by
over 100 miles.
Another branch of the B. NJ, d.
verging at Red Oak, falls into line
running down the Missouri through St
Joe to Kansas City, and all Kansas.
Passengers by this route to Kansas,
see Illinois, Southern Iowa, and Mis-
souri,, and, by slight divergence, can
see Nebraska also.

Der the Burlington Route, for its towns

DANGEROUS COUNTERFEITs.-Within
a week past, says the New York Rultetin,
a number of exceedingly dangerous
counterfeits have made their appearance
How large the number may be cannot
be discovered, for the counterfeit is SO
nearly faultless, that it can with the ut
most difficulty be distinguished from the
genuine. The spurious bill is a twenty
dollar greenback, and the only weak
points 10 the execution seems to be the
central figure, the engraving OF which
is rather coarse. When presented in a
package, however, this figure is not
seen in the counting, and the bill is apt
to be passed with the others. The
other parts of the bill are excellent, and
will stand the closest scrutiny; several
banks have been deceived with them,
aud they are indeed the most dangerous
counterfeits afoat. Business men would
do well to lOck on, for them.
