An opinion from one whose experience the
expression thereof is always in order. Mr..
Hiram B. Ferguson, member of the su-
preme court, bar of the state OF New York,
whose office is at No. 2s7 Broadway, New
York city, says: 81 consider st. Jacobs Oil a
most wonderful remedy. I have been a suf-
ferer from rheumatism for years, and prob
ably have endured as much misery from that
disease as any man can stand, 1 tried many
of the so-called remedies without any relief.
Finally, used St. Jacobs Oil, VIII ich gave me
instant relief. / found it safe, sure and
pleasant remedy. l believe it to be an infal.
ible medicine. 1t is pleasure to me to rec.
mmend st. Jacobs Oil to all who suffer and
Iced its good services"

The attempted Rape" Case.

Yesterday afternoon the case of the State VS..
Frank Hughes, charged with attempting to
commit rape, was set for an exam.
ination in the police court. Expecting
racy proceedings, the court room was early
packed to overfowing by curious crowd OF
loafers. But they were doomed to disap-
pointment. VIM FL Donehue, ESQ, appear
ed for the defense and waived an examin alton.
The case will consequently go ito this grand
jury. Bonds were fixed at 500, and were
regularly filed in a short time, when Hughes
took his departure from the room.
The defense claims that there is nothing
whatever in the case, and feel very confident
that the grand jury can brlng in no indict-
ment upon the charge. 1t is also claimed
that the girl in the case has publicly stated
that the young man took 10 improper liber.
ties, nor did he give utterance to an improper
word. She don't want the case prosecuted

Sewing Aches.

Jessie sat down by her mother to sew
She was making a pillow case for her
own little pillow.
All this P she asked in disconnected
tone, holding the seam out.
That is not too much for little girl
who has a work basket of her own said
her mother. Yes thought Jessie,
mother has given me a work basket, and
| ought to be willing to sew and with
that she took few stitches quite dill
gently.
I have a dreadful pain in my side, u
said Jessie, in a few minutes. My
thumb is very sore, she said a few
moment after. Oh, my hand is so tired =
soon followed. Next there was some
thing the matter with her foot, and then
with her eyes, and so she was full of
trouble. At length the sewing was done.
Jessie brought it to her mother.
Should [ not first send for the doctor P
said her mother.
The doctor for me, mother?' cried
the little girl, as surprised as she could
be-.
Certainly. A little girl so full of pains
and aches must be sick and the sooner
we have the doctor the better
20 mother 7 said Jessie, laughing,

have heard of other little girls be-
sides Jessie who had sewing aches and
pains whenever their parents had any
work for them to do. This is disease
called selfshness'; and hope none of
my little readers are afflicted with it.

Him in all she did. She loved to do
errands for her mother, and to- have her
mother say she was faithful servant
when she did them we'll
One day she had been talking with
her mother about God. AS they got
through she looked up with bright
thought beaming in her eyes and said,
why, mother, then God is sending us
on errands all the time o it is so nice
to think that am Gods little Grand
girl"
Yes, dear" said her mother; " God
has given us all errands to do for Him,
and plenty of time to do them in, and a
book full of directions to show us how
to do them. Every day we can tell Him
what we are trying to do, and ask Him
