sar Many persons say more about their sins
being too great to be pardoned, than they
either believe or feel, from supposition that
it is token of humility to talk thus. God
cannot be glori6ed, nor Christ honored, by
doubling his ability or willingness to save.

of salt into the mortar with which the inner
courses of brick are to be laid. The effect
will be that there will never be any accumu

mortar which is exposed absorbs moisture
from the atmosphere every damp day. The
SCOT thus becoming damp, falls down in the
fireplace. This is an English discovery. 1t

SPRA1Ns.-Between the bones of the ankle
and the wrist there are muscles. When by
accident these are drawn out of their places,
what we call sprain is produced. When one
is aware that he has suffered this species of
arrangement, the first thing to be done is to
keep the part injured perfectly still, and by
no means to use it in the least. The muscles
left to themselves will return to their places
gradually. Hops stepped in vinegar and ap,
piled to the injured part will quiet the an
guish and restore wholeness. But more i'm
portapt that any application is perfect quiet.
