A neoeo minister, who had mar¬ 
ried rather Booner after the death of 
his wife than some of the Bisters 
thought proper and becoming, ex¬ 
cused himself as follows: My dear 
brederen and sisters, my grief was 
greater than I could bear. I turned 
ebery way for peace and comfort, 
but none came. I sarched de Scrip¬ 
ture from Ginlsee to Bebelation, and 
found plenty promises to de widder 
but nary one to the widderer. So I 
took it dat de Lord didn'nt waste any 
sympathy on a man when it was in 
his power to comfort hisself: and 
havin’ a fuss-rate chance to marry in 
de Lord. I did so, and would do so 
again. Besides, Brederen, I consid¬ 
ered dat poor Patsey was jess as dead 
as she would ever be .'—Atlanta Con¬

The Common Enemy. 
In order to make headway against the common 
enemy, Disease, It Is necessary to oppose him 
with persistence. It very frequently happens 
that a remedy perfectly adequate to the neces¬ 
sities of the case. If persisted in, la condemned 
and thrown aside because a few doses of It do 
not cure a malady. Eow unreasonable and un¬ 
just would such a judgement be regarding 
Hostetteris stomach Bitters, one of the most 
popular and highly sanctioned medicines of the 
day, a potent lnvlgorant and an Invariably 
successful remedy for constipation, dyspepsia, 
liver complaint, Incipient rheumatism and gout,. 
Inactivity and weakness of the kidneys and 
bladder, and for the Infirmities incident to the 
decline of life. No fact la better established than 
the above, yet In order to experience Its truth 
those afflicted with obstinate forms of disease 
should give this benigant curative a patient trial. 
If they do, they may rely upon decisive curative 
results.
