SYMpArHY.-We are among the
number who look upon sympathy as a
cardinal virtue. Whoever lacks this
glorious trait in his character we care
not to form his acquaintance.
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1875-10-27

STRANGE BUT TRUE.-It is natural
for people suffering with Consump
ton, Coughs, Severe Colds, or any
other disease Of the Throat and Lungs
to put off from day to day buying an
article that they know has cured their
neighbor, friend, or relative, yet they
have no faith in it until it is too late.
If YOU will go to your Druggist,
0. G. Kimball, Woodstock, VT, and
get a bottle of BosCuEE's GERMAN SYI
UP, your immediate cure is as certain
as you live it has lately been intro
duced in this country from Germany.
Sample Bottles of this medicine can
be obtained for 10 cents to try its SUI
perior virtue. Regular size IS cents.
Try it, two doses will relieve any
case.

PROSPECTUS FOR 1876 OF THE
l "NORTHERN MESSENGER"
THE PIONEER PAPER.

The MESSENGER is designed to supply
the homes of the Sunday School scholars Of
America with family reading of the most use
full and interesting sort at the lowest possible
cost. 1t consists of eight nages Of four col
umns each, and contains Temperance de-
partment, Scientific department, Sanitary
department, and an Agricultural department.
Two pages are given to family reading, two
to u tale in large type for children. and one to
the Sunday School lessons of the Internation-
al Series, and u children's column. The pa
per is magnifcantly illustrated. There has
been very rapid increase in its circulation
during the past year, namely, from $4,000 to
$4,000. and The ratio of increase rises so rap
idly that the proprietors have sanguine hopes
OF doubling the latter figure before the end of
next year. This increase has been in large
measure the result of the removal of the post
barrier between Canada and the United
States. There has been rs a result Of this
prosperity, some improvement in the style of
the paper, and it will, OF course, be possible
TO introduce more and more improvements as
circulation grows. Most ofthe growth OF the
MESSENGER has been by the voluntary
recommendation of it by friends who haye
formed their own opinion of its worth, and by
the introduction of it into Sunday Schools.
Young correspondents say that their Sunday
Schools are moro interesting and better at
tended since it has been introduced.
The following are the prices of the MES.

For a G Jasper cssvser
Cast Thy Burden ON Me.

| will cast my burden on Him,
lie has promised To sustain,
IN my darkest hours OF anguish,
la my human grief and pain.
Though my sins may be as scarlet,
may TO the Savior go:
Baihe me in the blessed fountain,
Which will make me white as snow.
Often when the way seems darkest.
When my eve. with tears are dim,
Straight to my Father hasten.
Tell my sorrows all to Him.
Not to human ear confding
Nv sad tale Of grief aud care,
But before my Father kneeling,
Pour out all my sorrows there.
Human friends NAV all desert me,
when the fierce. wild storm has burst,
But know God will console me,
When il breaks upon me first.
know that my Divine Redeemer,
Knows as can never know,
All the keenest depths OF suffering,
All the weight OF human woe.
Then WHY Shouln my weak soul Mlelt
Though its burden heavy j..
All its weight cgn never. never
BE compared to half of His.
An my griefs hy Him are ordered.
Needful eacl one j. for me.
Though Ills - and loving purpose,
Clearly yet ] may not see.
And know that from His glery,
He can hear my fceblc>t cry,
Even hear the siitled sighing.
or the dumb hearts agony.
And &c while my iears fall thickly,
can own His WAY il right.
Then esch bitter drop Of anguish.
Precious is in Jesus sight.
Far 100 well my Saviour loves me-,
To allow my life To be.
One long calm nnbroken Summer,
One uurnilled storinless sea.
He would have me fDndly nestle,
Closer to his loving breast.
he would have the world seem brighter
When my soul shall find It's Rest.
