A Farmers Dream.

1t may seem little strange LOT
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 specplations 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 despalred 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 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 colpting
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 to
which the above refers lives near St
Paul, Minnesota, that the dream oil
vision, which ever you may call 1T
made such an impression on his mind
that he actually ordered one dozen Of
Saur's Vegetable Blood and Liver
Pills, tina. he took them according tc
directions and was cured. This mar
further states, that in that dream he
saw into every part of Saur's Drug
and Book Store, that even up stairs
on the second floor, he saw grea
large stock of the most beautiful Wal
and Window Papers, fine decorating
papers, which looked nice enough t.
put on fairy houses. In the cellar ht
saw large quantities of oils, great stacks
of many different colored paints. var
nishes, &c. - .
On the main or first floor, where hi
saw the pills put up, he also saw man!
people busily engaged in buying dif
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 goo'
health and welfare of the people wer
held sacred rather than the dollar
and cents. That all attention wa
eiyen to those who called here (an'
there seemed to be no end to the visit
ors), and their best interests consider
ed. 1t was all this which gave tn
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
q Balm in Gilead, in having his healt
restored, in having that peace and haE
piness on this earth which good healt
alone can give. m u !,
And this man does not keep th
cause Of his rejoicings to himself, br
upon every occasion offered he take
delight to enlighten his fellow mai
and the consequence is much goo
is growing out of this farmers dream
