TROUBLES.

The patient patriarch said, having perfect
knowledge of what he said, "Man that is
born of woman is of few days and full of
trouble" Again he says. "Man is born un-
to trouble as the sparks fly upward" The
source or origin of all our troubles is sin,
and as sin is universal so is trouble. Sin
produces trouble and the existence of trouble
demonstrates the existence of sin, just as
an effect demonstrates the existence OF
cause.
One thing noticeable about our troubles is
that they are remediless so far as any created
agent or agency is concerned. Created wis
dom cannot devise a cure for troubles.
Neither can created wisdom discover pre-
ventive against troubles. "Man is born
unto trouble"
Another thing remarkable about trouble
is that it springs up from q quarter whence
we least expect it, and at time we are
least prepared for it. In addition to this,
trouble never comes on us single handed.
One trouble is the harbinger of another and
severer one. Perhaps the most remarkable
characteristic of our troubles is that as we
grow old they become more numerous and
more grievous.
There is remedy for all our troubles. 1t
is the atonement of Jesus Christ. This re-
moves sin, the producing cause of all our
troubles, and the Holy Spirit cleanses from
the filth of sin. In this life absolute free
dom is rarely, if ever attained, but troubles
are sanctified and blessed to the good of
those who are the subjects of them. No af-
Fiction, no trouble Of any kind is, while we
are in the flesh, joyous. 1t is a grievous
thing, but in the case of those who receive
and rest upon Jesus Christ alone for saliva
tion as he is offered in the gospel" troubles
the most severe, are made to work together
for Gods glory, and the good of those who
are the subjects of these troubles.
Troubles, although they have their origin
in sin, are, according to the economy of the
covenant of grace, converted into instru-
mentalities by which believers are prepar-
ed for heaven.

Eczema! !!

For the benefit of suffering humanity, and in
heartfelt gratitude at the wonderful results,
deem it only my duty to give this unsolicited
testimony in favor of Swifts Specific. NY wife
salt Rheum from her infancy; it has increased
in intensity with each succeeding spring, and
being somewhat skilled in medicine myself,
tried every remedy could think of for years
Sarsaparilla combined with every form of PO-
tassie, "Cuticura," pills Of every kind, and hum
dreds of other remedies, lotions and akali wash
es of every known kind, but they all gave only
temporary relief. During the spring OF 1884 her
lower extremites became so intlaned and sore
that she was obliged to keep them constantly
coated with covering of "Fuler's Earth"
mixed wet and allowed to dry on. Among 9TH
er things she was afflicted with periodical ner-
vous headache, occurring regularly every seven
days, sometimes followed by intermittent fever
for weeks at time, so that her life became a
burden to her.
This Spring determined she should take S.
S. S. and follow strictly the directions in regard
to DOSE diet etc. This was about seven weeks
ago. After taking the first large bottle the dis
ease seemed to increase the burning itching and
inflammation became unbearable. She, howev-
er, persevered in the use of the medicine. After
taking the second bottle the inflammation began
to subsde. After taking the third bottle the in
fammation disappeared, and sore spots dried up
and turned white and scaly, and finally she brush
ed them off in an impalpable white powder re-
semblng pure salt She is now taking the sixth
DOCtle, CnreetaDleSpOOnlullOu lOuT tlUleS udlly. EF-
cry appearance of the disease has gone, and her
flesh is becoming soft, white and smooth again /;
and what is more, her periodical headaches have
disappeared, and she is now at SO years Of age,
enjoying the only good health she has known for
upwards of forty years. Nowonder she declares
with emphasis that every bottle of S. S. S. is
worth THOUSAND times its weight in gold.
Any further information in regard to her case
will be cheerfully given by herself at her resi-
dedce, l35 Mullett Street, or by me.

The DIsOBEDIENCE OF PARENTs.-J ohm
ny Fizzletop created sensation in school
by reading the following composition -
"The disobedience of parents is often the
source of a good deal of uneasiness to their
offspring. Men who commit the darkest
crimes generally begin by being disobedi-
ent to their children. .,
''Disobedient parents are often the result
of indulgent children, who intend it for the
good Of their progenitors, but are aware too
late that it is not benefcent. Of course, pa
rents have their privileges, and do not rel
ish having them interfered with, but it is
the duty Of every conscientious child to see
that they do not assume too much author
ity. Parents are naturally presuming, un-
less they are checked up once in a while.
How often do we see home where there
is no peace, no harmony, no love? The in
dulgent kid allows not only his parents but
his grandparents, and relatives who may be
in the house to have their own way and
follow the dictates of their own foolish de-
sires. The child who fails to keep tight
rein on the reckless parent is, sooner or lat
er, sure to have his gray hairs, if he lives
long enough, brought down in sorrow to the
cemetery. Parents who obey their chill
dren are the first to obey their Heavenly
Father. What wise old adage it is, Bring
up parent in the way he should 60, and
when he is old he will not depart from it.. ,
Obedient and good parents make useful
men and women when they grow up."-

Bag In all things we are to follow Christ:
We are commanded to be governed in all
that we say, in all we do, in all we think,
by Jesus Christ. The younger children in a
family by law of their nature look up to
and pattern after the older ones. The same
is seen to be the case in schools, and the
same is seen to be the case in nelgh6orhoods.
Some persons are the patterns whlch the
rest follow. Jesus Christ is the pattern
which all-old men and boys, old women
and little girls-are to follow. He is our
