Then the handkerchief or glove, which
is now supposed to be supernaturally en-
dowed, is returned to the owner, who
takes it home with him and applies it as a
sort of spiritual poultice to the part af-
fected. Whether or not the handkerchief
is permanently medicated by such a cere-
monial has not yet been determined, but
very likely the permanency OF its virtue
depends largely upon the durability of its
owners faith.

A TOUCHING LETTER.
Tender Appeal of Father to Way
ward Son.

Tender Appeal of Father to Way
ward Son.
Ny DEAR Son: What should you think
of yourselfifyou should come to our bed
side every night, and, waking us, tel
lis that you would not allow US to
sleep any more? That is just what
you are doing, and that is why / am
up here a little after midnight writ
ing to you. Your mother is nearly
worn out and dying because you won't
let her sleep-that mother who nursed
you in your infancy, toiled for you in
your childhood, and looked upon you
with pride and JOY when you were
growing up to manhood, as she count
ed on the comfort and support you
would give her in her declining years.
We read of a most barbarous manner
in which one of the oriental nations
Furnishes some of its criminals. 1t is
by cutting the flesh from the limbs,
beginning with the fingers and toes,
one joint at time, till the wretched
victim dies. That is just what you
are doing; you are killing your mother
by inches. You have planted many of
the white hairs now appearing SO thick
ly on her head before the time. Your
cruel hand is drawing the lines of sor-
row on her face, making her look pre-
maturely old. You might as well stick
your knife into her body every time
hor for tot tc.
stabbing her to the heart. You might
us well bring her coffin and force her
into it, for you are pressing her to-
ward it with very rapid steps. Would
you tread on her body if Frustrated
on the floor? And yet with migrate
full foot you are treading on her heart
and crushing out its life, and joy
no, l needn't say "joy," for that is a
word we have long ceased to use, be-
cause you have taken it from us. Of
course we have to meet our friends
with smiles, but they little know of the
bitterness within.
You have taken all the roses out of
your sisters pathway, and scattered
thOrns instead, and from the pain they
inflict scalding tears are often seen
coursing down her cheeks. Thus you
are blighting her life as well as ours.
And what can you promise yourself
for the future? Look at the miserable,
ragged wretches that you see
every day on the streets, and behold in
them an exact picture" of what you
ire fast coming to, and will be in
few years hence. Then in the end
grave and drunkard's
doom. For the Bible says that no
drunkard shall inherit the kingdom of
Tod. Where, then, will you be, if not
n the kingdom of God? Will not these
induce you to reform at
,nce? And may God help you in, the
Effort! Your affectionate, but sorrow
stricken Father.-Selected

Dig down to the cause Of your sickness
il you want to get well and stay we'll.
Most likely it's Indigestion. The irritat-
ing poisons Of fermenting, putrid food left
in the stomach by indigestion, cause head
ache, neuralgia, nervousness, dizziness,
stomach, nausea. irritabiliy, and all the
ton.
They also cause manv pains aud disor-
ders which are often laid 10 other causes
and hence are not easily cured. But as
soon as the poisons are removed, all these
symptoms and disorders disappear, be-
cause there is nothing left to cause them.
Nothing succeeds in this like Shaker d.
gestive Cordial, because 1t prevents the
undigested food from fermenting in the
stomach and helps the stomach to digest
its food.

Charles wrs bright, vigorous prom

cause to more universal sorrow than
his sudden death. He was the only
child and had just lived long enough to
win all the love and devotion Of his
fond parents, who are completely pros
