A Family Medicine.

The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegetable com
poundi and, while it is most efac lent remedy for
pain, it is perfectly safe medicine. even in the
most unskiful hands. For Summer Complaint or
any other form OF bowel disease in children or
adults, 1t is an almost certain cure and has, with
out doubt been more successful in curing the vari-
Gus kinds Of Cholera than any other known remedy,
or the most skillful physician. In India, Africa
and China where this dreadful disease is more or
less prevalent, the Pain Killer is considered by the
natives, as well as European residents in those
climates, a sure remedy.
THE PAIN KILLER.-We have known the high
character Of this medicine, and that t1s used with
great success and satisfaction in our very best
families. 1t is the lavOrite medicine of our mis-
sOnaries in heather lands, where they use it more
than all else together for the diseases that abound
In those warm climates. 1t should be kept in every
house, and in readiness for sudden attacks of sick

WAY THEY OFTEN FAIL.-Young men
often fail to get on in this world because
they neglect small opportunities. Not be-
ing faithful in little things, they are not
promoted to the charge of greater things.
A young man who gets a subordinate
situation sometimes thinks it is not neces-
sary for him TO give it much attention. He
will wait till he gets a place of response
bilitv, and then he will show people what
he can do. This is very great mistake.
Whatever his situation may be, he should
master it in all its details, and perform all
its duties faithfully.
The habit of doing his work thoroughly
and conscientiously is what is most likely
to enable young man to make his way
With this habit, "a person of only ordinary
abilities would outstrip one of greater tai.
ents who is in the habit of sighting subor
dinate matters.
But after all, the mere adoption by ;
young man, of this great essential rule o
success, shows him to be possessed o
superior abilities.

Christ's Sympathy.

There is what may be called an in
Uiting quality in the sympathy of the
Son of God. 1t would have all men to
bring their sorrows and troubles to him,
that thus they might find relief and
rest. BY this lovely trait Christ shows
himself to he the heart-friend of man.
There is no anguish so deep, no affiic-
ton so painful, that need hinder the
soul from coming to him. The heavier
the burden, the greater the need OF
help. Every soul knows that it has a
trouble which it can tell into the ear OF
no mortal man; there being a con-
sciOusness that no mere earthly creature
can measure or meet our grief. Hence
we bear it about with us wherever we
go. To the friend that is nearest to us,
we make it not known. The child says
nothing to the parent, neither does the
parent say anything to the child. The
husband is silent in the presence of his
wife, and the wife is equally silent in
the presence of her husband. But we
have found the one Comforter of men
to whom the soul may be opened
There is no want or woe, but that he
can meet, no sigh or sin but that he can
take away. He bears our griefs, he
carries our sorrows and the more com
pletely we cast cur troubles upon him
the more completely does he pour into
the soul joy and peace.-ReU. John Reid
