sPEc,AL NOTICES.
DOCTOR. WHAT IS IT.

Isa question frequently asked by a patient, who.
though perhaps not sick enough to be confined to
his room or bed. nevertheless feels himself physi-
cally unable to attend to his usual avocations.
There is failing or general breaking dawn of the
system, but no symptoms sufficiently marked to be
cassed disease yet peculiarly trying to the suf'
ferer. The feelings cannot be expressed Doctors
don't understand it; they may prescribe hopefully
yet hlindly. and without result. MIsHLERs HERi
BirrERs is the best Remedy for these nameless dis
orders. TRY 1T AND BE CONVINCED

Sowing and Reaplng.

A Christian gentleman was staying few
days with a farmer, who, though man OF
sniind sense and many amiable traits, was a
neglecter of religion. He was an excellent
farmer, prding himself not little on the fine
appearance and thorough culture of his farm,
and evidently was pleased with his guest, who
was q man Of winning manners and extensive
information.
One day the gentleman walked out where
the farmer was scattering his seed broadcast
in the field.
'What are you sowing, Mr.. H" was
his pleasant inquiry.
.Wheat," was the answer.
"And what do you expect to reap from it?"
"Why, wheat Of course" said the farmer.
At the close of the day, all were gathered
IN the family circle, some little thing provoked
the farmer-the husband, the father, and the
head Of the faMily-and at once he flew into
o violent passion, and forgetting, in his ex-
oitement, the presence of his guest, he swore
most profanely.
The latter, who was sitting next to him, in
low serious tone. said, And what are you
sowing fOr?"
The farmer seemed startled. A new light
at once flashed on him from the question OF
the morAing "What r. he said, in a subdued
and teOughtful tone, "do you take such seri-
GUS views Of every mood and word and ac
tion?"
"Yes," was the reply, "for every mooo
helps to form the permanent. temper; ana tOl
every word we must give an account; ant
every act but aids to form habit; and habit
are to the soul what the veins and arteries ar
to the blood, the courses in which 1t moves
and will move forever. By all these littl
things we are forming character, ana ina
character will 20 with us to eternity, and &C
c0rding to it will be our destiny forever. =
