themselves OF it. A single bottle of any remedy

THE COMMON LOT.
O say not "Never lot like mine.
Never frai heart oppressed,
So tossed on wild waves of unrest,
so s,ckened sa ideAed, and distressed"
Only the common lot is thine;
Each mortal lie is mixed with woe,
q And many of Christs dear ones go
Their heavenward journey, burdened so.
From deep earth mines, with toll and pam
Is brought to light most precious ore
And from the beaten, threshng-ioor
We gather up the needed store
Freed from its chaf-pure shining grain;
And thus our souls. at last should tell.
Each throe that rent each blow that fell,
In life'sad hours, refined them well.
Rejoice this common lot is thine;
Believing all the Ills you bear
Are but just and needed share
OF the worlds load of pain and care.
That through your griefs, the Friend divine
Is pointing, with unerrng hand,
The sure way to that promised land,
Where you may join his blood-washed bard.
Rejoice this co nmon lot ia thine,
Since in its clouds, His form appears,
Whose helpful presence Gains our fears;
His hottest baptisms of tears;
And His best strength, is thine and mine,
If through these trials all hushed and sill,
We wait obedent to His will,
Till light. and love, orr sad hearts fill.
