PETTY WORRIES.
The heaviest strokes of misfortune ore borne by some men without wincing ; they have verve enough at Jerst to bide their troubles from the publio gaze and bear a brave front to thj outside world, no matter how great their actual buffering mny bo. But the petty worries of life are onos which try even the strongest natures, and break down the most determined wills. The giant in nerve, who can bear sickness, pain, sorrow, Buffering, and poverty without any visible sign of distress, will break down sooner or later under a succeßßion of petty annoyances — the mosquito bites of life — which he can neither guard against nor avenge. There is no cure for BOine 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 iB astonishing how trival all other afflictions seems, aud with what comparative ease they are shaken off. The man who can illustrate the old proverb by bearing the sufferings of his neighbors with foititude, may bear his own equally as well by the aid of this wonderful remedy.
