"WELL, MY SON,"

said a father to his ten-year-old boy, " what have you done to-day that may bo considered a good deed?" "I gave a boy sixpence," repliod the young hopeful. " Well, and what did you give him sixpence for ? Was he an orphan, and poor and hungry, or what was it ?" " I did not aek him, , ' replied tho boy; "I gave him sixpence for thrashing another boy who upset vny dinner-basket, and I think, from tho appearance which the latter presented after the boy to whom I gave ths sixpence had tinished with him, that the sixponco was well earned." Prom the latest advices it was learned that the boy who received the thrashing wae taken to the nearest chemist's ahop, and there thoroughly rubbed with St. Jacobs oil by the wise chemiet, who knew that "St. Jacobs oil conquers pain." The boy has been made well, but takO3 good care not to interferes with the dinner-baskets of other boys. St. Jacobs oil is used by all classes of people tor yoneral achoa and pains. It conquers pain. It penetrates to the Beat of tho disease. There is no remedy Hk6 it. St. Jacobs oil is peculiar to itsolf. It ie made from drugs which no other rein6diGß are made from. They are gathered from the four quarters of tho globe, and are made after the mosb scientific principles. St. Jacobs oil ie an outward application. Its cost is trifling, but to the sufferer a bottle of it is worth its weight in gold.
