I Bt. The Situation lHealth depeuds upon the atate of the blood. The blood conveys every element whicb goes to make up ail the orgaus of bbe body, and lb carrnes awayj aIl waste or dissobved and useless material. Every boue, muscle, nerve and tissue ives upon wbab the bhood feeda te lt. Moreover, every beating cf tbc heart, every drawing cf the breatb, every tbought lasbing tbrougb bbc brain, nieeda a supply cf pure blood, te be doue igbtly and welh. 2d. The Necessity The humant race as a whole is lu great ueed of a good blood purifier. There are about 2400 disorders incident te the buman frame, the arge majoity arising from the impure or poisonous condition of the blood. Very few in- dividuals enjoy perfect healh, and fewer stihi bave perfecLty pure blood. Scrofula, a disease as old as antiquity, has been inberited by generation after generation, and manifesta jîsehf today virulent and virtually uncbanged from its ancieut forma. 'If we are se fortu- nate as toe acape hered itary impurities in tbe bbood, we may coetract disease from germa int the air we breathe, thie food we cat, or the water we drink. 3d.

HOOD & do., Lowoll, Mass, 100 Doses One Dollar Pick the Ripest Berry First. When you seo the busbes, hanging Full of berrnes, ripe and good, And the brambles, intertwining Bar your entrance to the wood,* lu the climax of your flurry Stop and thitak what may be best, Know there's nothing gained by hurry Pick the ripest berrnes first. For they mnay not long be for yon, They may drop off one by one, And you feel chagrin and sorry, That you've lest them ail too s on; Pick thema then with heat so thankful Knowing they are net the worat, Jif ou'd ,eathçrin your handful And in choosing your profess!on Reason tells you do the saine, Çoiisiideçr1l Q.341 occupation That is known to mod)aértufàme; And the one that's suited for you And you're fitted for it best, That success may surely follow Pick that ripeîàt berry first.

Taire the one with blooming beauty, And the rosy tint of health, Take the one well skilled iu duty, Rather than the one of wealth; Take the one so ripe and cbarming La accomplishments we]l versed. Take the one that knows no harming, Pick the ipest berry first. And ini seeking gifta of heaven 1 Seek that place of greatest price, Thal, tu us is freely given And eternal life in Christ; For a home, a heavenly mansion Where the weary are at reat, We may go with a Father's sanction Pick that ripest berry first. r I your store, or shop, or farming, Or your intercourse with man, Or for war the soldiers arming, Or working a raiiwày plan, Or whenever or whereven *Your lot ini life be cast, Be sure you must neyer Pick the ripest berry last.
