No true work since the world began was ever wasted ; no true life since the world began bas ever failed. Ob, un- derstand these pev verted words, failure and success, and measure them by the eternal, not by the earthly, standard. What the world has regarded as the bitterest failure bas often been in the sight of heaven the most magnificent suecess. When the cap, painted with devils, was placed on the brow of Jobn Huss, and he sat dying amid the embers of the fame—was that a failure? When St. Xavier died, cold and lonely on the bleak and desolate shore of a heathen couniry—was that a failure? When the frail, worn body of the apostle of the Gentiles was dragged by a hock from the areaa, and the white sand scattered over the crimson life-blood of the victim when the dence amphitheatre despised as some obcure and nameless Jew—was that a failure? And when, after thirty obeure, toilsome, unrecorded years in the shopota village carpenter.

FROM THE SON , “28 Cedar St., New 2 York, Oct. 28, 1882. ** Gentlemen: My father resides at Glover, Vt. He has been a great sufferer from Scrof- ula, and the inclosed letter will tell you what @ warvelous effect Ayers Sarsaparilla has had in his case. I think his blood must have contained the humor for at least ten years: but it did not show, except in the form of a serofulous sore on the wrist, until about five vears ago. From « few spots which ap peared at that time, it gradually spread soas to cover his entire body. I assure you be was terribly afficted, and an object of pity, when he begen using your medicine, Now, there are few men of his age who enjoy as good health as he bas. I could easily name fifty persons who would teetify to the facts in his case. Yours truly, W. M. PHILLIPS.” FROM THE FATHER: pica. eo nce a duty for me to state to you the benefit I have derived from the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Six months ago 1 was completely covered with ® terrible humor and scrofalous sores. The humor caused an incessant and intolerable itching, and the skin cracked 80 as to ci.use the blood to flow in many places whenever I moved. My sufferings were great, and mg life a burden. I commenced the use of the SARSAPARILLA in April last, and have nsed it regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at once. The sores have all healed, and I feel perfectly well in every respect — being now able to do @ good day’s work, althongh 73 years of age. Many inquire what has wreught such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, AYER’S SAKSAPARILLA. Glover, Vt., Oct. 21, 1882. Yours gratefally, . HIRAM PHILLIPs.” AYER’S SARSAPARILLA enres Scrofula and all Scrofulous Complaints, Erysip- elas, Eczema, Ringworm, Blotches, Sores, Bolls, Tumors, and Eruptions of the Skin.
