A Farmers Dream.

1t may seem a little strange for
some people to know that a farmer
ever dreams, and yet he does dream.
In fact. it is not unfrequent to find
one who even loves to dream, and who
is permitted to look into the future
and make great speculations In crops
and stock, &c. But we wish to call
your attention TO one particular dream.
This man had been sick for many
months, confined to his house and bed
He had almost despaired of ever gett-
ing around on his farm again, until
one stormy night, the rain that beat
upon the roof had ratified him into a
sort of doze or sleep. 1t was then
that he saw or had glimpse Of what
his future might be. He saw in that
dream q very large building and in
that building he saw many things
which astonished him; they were
strange; he had never seen them be-
fore. AT one end Of the store he saw
four men busily engaged in counting
pills, putting them in boxes, and
wrapping red papers around them
He then was told that he had been
sick for long time and that by tax
ing just one box Of these pills that he
would be entirely cured, and could
once more plow the fields and till the
soil with pleasure, and profit, and
without pain.
For the general information Of oul
many thousands of readers we would
state right here that the man te
which the above refers lives near st
Paul, Minnesota, that the dream Of
vision, which ever you may call it
made such an impression on his mine
that he actually ordered one dozen o.
Saur's Vegetable Blood and Livel
Pills, tina: he took them according te
directions and was cured. This MAI
further states, that in that dream ht
saw into every part of Saur's Drug
\ and Book Store, that even up stairs
on the second floor, be saw grea
large stock of the most beautiful Wal
and Window Papers, fine decorating
papers, which looked nice enough tt
put on fairy houses. In the cellar h,
saw large quantities of oils, great stack
of many different colored paints. var
nishes, &c.
On the main or first floor, where h'
saw the pills put up, he also saw man,
people busily engaged in buying diff
ferent kinds of medicines, window
shades, brushes, nice books, papers
&C., in fact he could see most every
thing and anything here, and it almos
seemed to him at first to be manne
of museum. He noted that extremel,
great pains were taken to keep every
thing nice and fresh, that the gooc
health and welfare Of the people wer
held sacred rather than the dollar
and cents That all attention wa
given to those who called here (ans
there seemed to be no end to the visit
orsA, and their best interests consider
ed. It was all this which gave th
dreamer such explicit confidence, an
which induced him to make the ex
pertinent, and we are proud and pleas
ed to say that he to-day, with thous
ands Of others, rejoices in having foun
Balm in Gilead, in having his healt
restored, in having that peace and haT
piness on this earth which good healt
alone can give.
And this man does not keep th
cause of his rejoicings to himself, bu
upon every occasion offered he take
delight to enlighten his fellow mar
and the consequence is much goo
is growing out OF this farmers dream
