was sad stumbling block in the path of
Bunyan's Christian, though it couldn't

thize with the Pilgrim, for Doubt always
besets us when we are asked to believe

Consequently, when we heard, some eigh-
teen months ago, that a physician in Cal
itornia had compounded. from the juices
and extracts OF certain herbs found there,
a medicine that cured almost every varie-
ty of blood disease, we were incredulOus.
Since then we have had opportunities of
testing the accuracy of the report. and are

And have the supper ready
It's very cold tonight.

The gates are opened wide,
For in ahour-remember-

And now it's after six.

With all his merry tricks.

And vet say Poor Will -
All, we'll mothers darling,
To mothers baby still.
And marriage is so solemn
Sometimes so sad thing!
All blessings and all curses
Bound in little ring!
A little ring that wears away
In daily toll and fret,
And leaves, sometimes, instead of gold,
\ scar of vain regret.
But then-hes chosen wisely
Even in a mothers eyes.
She's pretty, and although so young,
In many things she's wise;
They speak of her with ready praise,
The ones who know her best.
He loves her and he's chosen her

A cross the quiet lawn.
The trees are still and beautiful,
Although the leaves are gone.
1t rained upon the wedding day,
But cleared before the night
I'm glad their coming home will be
So peaceful and so bright.
There's trial before them, l suppose
And Joy, and loss, and gain.
It's good to think that healing walks
So near the angel Pain!
The Lord has blest me greatly,
Yet He has sent me grief;
And 1 know how sweet the moment,
When Sorrow meets Relief.
They're coming now. hear the wheels,
And at the open door
Stands one who's been my comforter
These thirty years and more.
When look back along my life,
With husband at my side,
I'm glad indeed, I've lived to see
My son bring home his bride.

In the February, number of Home and
Health we find the following simple and
useful instructions for curing u cold. "The
first hour after catching cold, it may be
cured, by anything which thoroughly,
warns and restores circulation. Thorough
ly warm such parts Of the body rs may
have been first chilled, or affected by the
cold. An old physician said to me, when
| was attending his lectures during my
student life, We must drive out cold
by the same door through which it enter
ed" have found this to be excellent
advice. If the cold has come from wet or
cold feet, bathe them thoroughly in hot
water with mustard. If the neck of the
spinal column has been the door of ingrcss
for the cold, stand or sit with the back
against or near the hot stovepipe, or
toward the fire, until the part is thorough
ly warmed, and the circulation in those
parts are restored to its healthful condition
Imbibing warm drinks at the same time
will be of use. A thorough bathing and
rubbing of the skin will also be of great
service. These rules thoroughly followed
will generally avail. If any medicine be
required, | know of nothing better than
the COld Ponder recommended first by DR..
Beard. The formula or prescription for it
will now write for you, as follows:
Camphor, two parts.
Powdered Opium, one part
Carbonate of Ammonia, one part.
Dissolve the camphor in ether to the
thickness of cream, then add the opium
and ammonia. Get the druggist to prepare
it. Keep it in bottle tightly corked. Take
before retiring to bed; dose, three to siz
grains in little water. The druggist who
puts it up will advise you how to measure
grains. Keep on hand at all times, and
take as soon as may be convenient after
becoming thoroughly chilled.
The effect of this powder is seen in the
opening of the pores of the skin, and in
producing sleep. While, however, rec
ommend this POWDER advise always that
the warming process be resorted to, and
an most cases this should suffice. Avoid
taking medicine when you can"
