PETTY WORRIES.

The heaviest strokes of misfortune are borne by some men without wincing ; they have nerve enough at least to hide their troubles from the public gaze and bear a brave front to thb outside world, no matter how great their actu il buffering may be. But the petty worries of life are ones which try even the strongest natures, and break down the most determined wills. The giant in nerve, who can bear sickness, pain, sorrow, suffering, and poverty withont any visible si&n of distress, will break down sooner or later under a succession of {tetty annoyances — the mosquito bites of ife— which he oan neither guard against nor avenge. There ib no cure for socne of them, but for many there is an alleviator easily obtainable, cheap and certain. St. Jacob's Oil is the recognised conquerer of pain, and without a sound body it is astonishing how trival all other afflictions seems, and with what comparative ease they are shaken off. The man who oun illustrate the old proverb by bearing the Bufferings of his neighbors with foititude, may bear his own equally as well by the aid of thiß wonderful remedy.
