wife to complete health that he is willing

to battle the skill of the best medical men.
She was in poor, languid, depressed, nerv-
Gus conditions We finally concluded to try
your Vegetable Compound and to our great

taken before there seemed to be a thorough
change in her aghole condition, and now to-
day she is in good health and entirely re-
lieved from all former depressed feelings.

Further Evidence Of Merit.

Major R. B. Nicholson, favorablT
known in Wheeling, W. Va, writes:
II had long suffered from dis
order of the bladder and kidneys,
complicated with weak nerves,
poor digestion and bad blood. Life
was becoming--a burden to me. The
use of cathartic mixtures and
diuretic compounds only afforded
me slight temporary relief, and L
grew Respondent and discouraged.

relief from my anxiety OF mind, and

MIXED METAPHORS.


The LudIcrous Ideas Which Follow the
UnsltiIlful Use of Rhetorical Figures.
The examples of confusion of meta
phor ascribed to the late Lord Castle
REACH are SO absurd that it might have
been thought impossible to rival them.
Nevertheless, the following, though in
somewhat quieter style, seemed to me
to approach very nearly to the best of
those that were spoken by Castlereagh
or forged for him by Macintosh. A
recent Cabinet Minister described the
error of an Indian official in these
words: ssHe remained too long under
the influence of the views which he had
imbibed from the board. y To imbibe
a view seems strange, but to imbibe
ANYTHING from board seems to be very
difficult. may observe that the phrase
of Castlereagh, which is now best
known, seems to suffer from misquota-
ton; we usually have san Ignorant i'm
patience of taxation but the original
form appears to have been san ignorant
impatience of the relaxation of taxa
ton.
The following sentence is from vol
luminous historian: 'sThe decline of the
material comforts of the working classes,
from the effects Of the revolution, had
been incessant, and had now reached
an alarming height. y It's possible to
ascend to an alarming height, but it IS
surely difficult to decline to an alarm
ing height. ssNothing could be more
one-sided than the point of view adopted
by the speakers. 1t is very strange to
speak of point as having a side, and
then how can tone sided" admit OF
comparisonP A thing has either one
side or it has not; there can not be de-
prees in one-sidedness. However, even
mathematicians do not always manage
the word point correctly. In modern
valuable work we read of ga more ex-
tended point of view," though we know
that point does not admit Of exten'
sion. This curious phrase is also to pc
found in two eminent French writer's

Some of the Unique Sights and People In
This Remote Country.
A court was filled with the forms OF
Arab men and women squatting on
sacred mats, and facing a platform
were eight Arabs engaged in fantas-
tic and fascinating dance. AS the
musicians began to play slowly, they
moved the upper parts of their bodies
forward and backward and from side
to side. Gradually the music became
faster, and faster and faster they went,
throwing their limbs and bodies about
in almost uncomfortable positions.
until / could scarcely believe that the
rapidly whirling mass before me were
human beings.
Several hundred years ago there
lived in a pashalik of Arabia learned
marabout (priest) who gathered about
him many disciples, but, as his teach
mos were not consistent with the
Koran. he drew upon himself the
enmity of the reigning pasta, who
banished him and his disciples to the
Desert of Sahara, whittier they were
taken and left without food or water.
Then the marabolt arose, declaring he
had received revelation from Heaven
telling him that nothing they would
eat would injure them. Accordingly
they toasted upon scorpions, snakes
and prickly pear leaves. When this
miracle came to the ears of the pasha,
he enticed them by offers Of pardon to
his palace. He threw them into a
dungeon filled with scorpions, bits Of
crockery, glass, and other similar
tonics, and told them they would mol
be released until they ate everything;
It was no difficult task, as they had
been growing fat on the same sort o.
food. The pasha, having seen them
eat, granted them all full pardon, and
made Ali Ben his vizier. The descend.
ants of Ali and his disciples formed g

In recent lecture Joseph Cook quotes
from the recently published History Of
Israeli (Longmans, Green L Co., London.
1851, from the pen Of Ewald, celebrated
German author, long thought to be skep-
tic, the following splendid and remarkable
passage:
In that brief, 6eeting moment Of the ages
during which Christ labored publicly among
his people, he had founded within that nation
an imperishssle memorial, and, indeed, al
ready a new community in which his spirit
could Immediately Be perpetuated, and which
could be bound to him by the ties OF strong
est love, reverence and longing. And in the
latest times and amongst the most remote ma
tions, when the genuine picture of this unique
life is again reviewed and realized, if in i'm
agination and thought only, it must, by vir-
tue of its own immortal truth and perfection,
always produce again effects similar to those
which we're produced when it FIRST appeared
in the midst of the declining people of Israel,
and it is Of itself adequate to kindle, in all
who gaze upon its glory, the FIRE Of 4 life an
swering to that glory.
