Crandall, Port Perry, writes: "I contracted a severe cold last winter, which resulted in my becom- ing totally deaf in one ear and partially so in the other. After trying various remedies, and consulting several doctors, without obtaining any relief, I was ad- vised to try Dr. Thomas' Eclectrio Oil. I warmed the Oil and poured a little of it into my ear, and before one-half the bot- tle was used my bearing was completely restored. I have beard of other cases of deafness being cared by the use of this medicine." Words of Wisdom. There is no education like adversity. The greatest remedy for anger is de- lay. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. They that will not be counseled can- not be helped. Laughing cheerfulness throws sun- light on all the paths of life. Fine sense and exalted sense are not half so useful as common sense. There is a remedy for every wrong and a satisfaction for every soul. If a man is worth knowing at all he is worth knowing well. There is great ability in knowing how to conceal one's ability. The testimony of a good conscience is the glory of a good man. Fire and sword are but slow engines of destruction in comparison with the bab bier. Not education, hut character,is man's greatest need and man's greatest safe- guard. Blessings ever wait on virtuous deeds, and though a late, a sure reward succeeds. If you wish to be held in esteem, you must associate only with those who are estimable. NEWS TOPICS Of A WEEI.
