EverinGuam, and City Property. con’ Scrofula Is one of the most fatal scourges which afflict mankind. It is often inherited, but may be the result of improper vaccination, mercurial poisoning, uncleanliness, and various other causes. Chronic Sores, Ulcers, Abscesses, Cancerous Humors, and, in some eases, Emaciation, and Con- sumption, result from a serofulous condi- tion of the blood. This disease can be cured by the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I inherited a scrofulous condition of the blood, which caused a derangement of my whole system. After taking le’s than four bottles of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla I am Entirely Cured and, for the past year, have not found it necessary to use any medicine whatever. I am now in better health, and stronger, than ever before.—O. A. Willard, 213 Tremont st., Boston, Mass. I was troubled with Scrofulous Sores for five years; but, after using a few bottles of Aver’s Sarsaparilla, the sores healed, and I have now good health.— Elizabeth Warnock, 54 Appleton street, Lowell, Mass. Some months ago I was troubled with Scrofulous Sores on my leg. The limb was badly swollen and inflamed, and the sores discharged large quantities of offen- sive matter. Every remedy failed, until I used Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. By taking three bottles of this medicine the sores have been entirely healed, and my health is restored. I am ful for the ‘is medicine has done me.— Mrs. O’ Brian, 158 Sullivan st., New York. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Maas. oid by ab. rice $1; six botties, $5, »,. C.

Not being placed in such a position before, I hardly know how to begin. But will say, we cordially welcome one and all, and we are glad to see so many of our friends from a dis- tance, and hope you will all help us to make this meeting enjoyable as well as profitable. The object of this meeting is to cultivate christian sym- pathy and to devise ways and means to assist the destitute of our county. As we have given all a hearty welcome toour meeting, we trust that you may so live as to be welcomed in the same manner into the glories of the upper world How limited is our present circle of action; how con- tracted all our views. We are con- fined within the narrow boundaries ofthe terrestrial sphere, shut out frem all the glory and grandeur of the wide universe. Let us go forth unler the clear sky of evening and view the grandest spectacle of nature. Behold the innumerable multitude of resplendent orbs, glimmering from the remote shores of space; the end- less profusion of constellations and the distant blazing nebulae, and the pearly milky way which wreaths the noble brow of heaven. Those lus trous stars we see are stupenduous, dazzling suns, as widely separated from each other as from us—centers of grand systems, each surrounded with its retinue of ponderous, rolling worlds, many of which, in magnitude and splendor, are infinitely superior to that of our globe, each doubtless representing different varieties of creation, and adorned with its own peculiar magnificence and beauty, like none other. Themilky way, and those other’ pale'lights of heaven, are the commingled rays of other suns, still more remote. Then think that all this glory which meets the vision is but a drop in the grand ocean of immensity—not the decil- lionth of a decillionth portion of all that lie, unfathomably beyond, in the deep, awful realms of infinity. O, the vastness of the universe!’ Compared with all this, what isearth? Inmpric- oned within its narrow precincts, what can we know of the grandeur of God’s; boundless creations. There is no stream from its source. Does not this fill our minds with over- whelming thoughts of the Almighty One, the Infinite Creator, who at the word of His might “stretched out the heavens as a scroll” —who holds all these mighty structures in their appointed places—who looketh after the wants of all His creatures, from the minutest insect that crawls in the dust to noble man, and findeth room in His great heart of hearts to love them all. We can form no cor- rect idea of His almighty power to create. John Hampton, after graduati gat xford, was a student at law in the Inner Temple at 19. FOSTER.
