"Well, My Son,"

said a . father to his ten-year-old boy, " what have you done to-day that may be considered a good deed ?" " I gave a boy sixpence," replied the young hopeful. "Well, and what did you give him sixpence forP Was he an orphan, and poor and hungry, or what was it ? " " I did not ask him," replied the boy; "I gave him sixpence for thrashing another boy who upset my dinner-basket, and I think, from the appearance which the latter presented after the boy to whom I gave the sixpence had finished with him, that the sixpence was well earned." From the latest advices it was learned that the boy who received the thrashing waa taken to the nearest chemist's shop, and there thoroughly rubbed with Sb Jacob's oil by the wise chemist, who knew that " Sfc Jacob's oil •conquers pain." The boy has been made well, but takeß good care not to interfere with the dinner baskets of other boys. St Jacob's oil is used by all classes of people for general aches and pains. It conquers pain. It penetrates to the Beat of the disease. There is no remedy like it. St Jacob's oil is peculiar to itself. It is made from drugs which so other remedies are made from. They are gathered from the four quarters of the globe, and are made after the most scientific principles. St Jacob's oil is an outward application. Its cost is trifling, but to the sufferer a bottle of it is worth ita weight in gold.
