FOUR HOURS TOO LATE.  " Oh, God ! if I could recall the past three or lot' hours. ' See what trouble a man may briny upon himself cE in a moment."  Mr. James Curtis and Mr. C. S. Bennett, both of , Fiancisco, had been intimate friends for years. Lastlf g summer they quarrelled ,for the first time, each accuE'i ing the other of wrong. Retter thoughts -prevailed and they were reconciled. But you can't undo what is onc-6 done. Memory kept the record on her slate. Violj avoided each other as much as possible. Still, living 86_ neighbours, men must meet some time. These two ine°, in the street. 'I he quarrel was renewed. Bitter wordg flew fast and thick, and Curtis beside himself with 111 i drew his pistol and sht Bennett dead on the sl:Ot'i Later in the day he used the above language—so laden ,1 with self-reproach and sorrow. Yet how useless, ilov"' hopeless, how vain.  But was Curtis right in saying that trouble may CO all in a moment? True, it often seems so, but is there not a deeper fact which we don't see ? It mattere nothing what the nature of the trouble is. Therefore let us consider a different case on the same principle.  1 An intelligent woman says :—" In October, 18900 J. had an attack of illness from which I never expect& recover. I had aching pains all over me and a cJuga that nearly shook me to pieces. I obtained no good : sleep night or day, and had to take to my bad. I fed with liquid food fiom an invalid's cup, for I cow" not raise myself in bed. My heart fluttered so Y°) could hear it beat on the pillow, and often pains strue" through it as though somebody had stabbed me. I 135'4 perfeetly helpless and could scarcely breathe. A dcnt°Ar attended me over a month, but I grew weaker a" 1 1 weaker. Sometimes at night I was so bad he feared I ' would not live till morning. He called in a consulting ' physician and both agreed that my condition wag critical. I was fed with brandy to.keep me alive. SY' husband and daughter stayed with me- almost non' stantly. None ot the medicines administered had ail -I effect. I was almost at death's door.  "At this time Mrs. Keeling, of Mutley, near Fir mouth, a friend etA mine, urged me to try a medicine r' called Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup. I procured JO, bottle, and after a few days I was able to take neu, digest sufficient food to give me some strength, 'and worst symptoms were greatly abated. After haViuei.„ used six bottles of the Syrup my health was comPlete3/1 restored, and I have since felt better than for thepretl.o%, thirty year.t. My two daughters have also been cured e` indigestion by it. I will gladly answer any enquiries. (Signed) Mrs. Louise Jackson, Builders' Arms Hotel, Bridge-road, Hammersmith, London, Jan, 14th, 1892.  • In Me letter from which the above is an extract, gig' si Jackson further says that for over twenty years bef°:re the attack of October, 1890, she had suffered from a ordered stomach and liver. She had a bad taste mouth, a poor appetite, and what little she ate gala her pain. She felt dull, languid, and tired, and ba(l.o miserable sinking feeling in the stomach, great pain the chest and sides, palpitation, giddiness, and I'l quently fell it the street and had to be airisted hoi  So we perceive that in her case a cause, long in opery tion, at last produced the crisis which came near cud; , 1 ing her life. It is always thus, whether we reccghls the cause or not. The crime committed by Curtis the sudden passionate act of a man who allowed thougl"it' , of hate and vengeance to take possession of his 111113ie and breed the condition which made murder Pcssittr; , In the very different ease of this lady's illness it was enemy of her body, indigestion and dyspepsia, which ° length broke out into violence.  The lesson is the same. Watch the beginning 01 e' and check it while yet it may be easily controlled.  ciflolonessi e* v cg,,t.o? ."\.„ ~,• ,f,...5.4,, •,„:., 4 1,- ' , Fogirf ti "i^ 1.• -k.c.att ' ;I ;A ' •;-, ~' iztt i ,t , .0./,4 •t;•:, . tb, QUalitY ; if of •-- ..
