WHAT IS IT?

THE INFLUENCE THAT BOMETIMEB GUIDES t US AGAINST OUR WILL. "No, I did not brieve in ghosts," said an old lady of great experience, " but I do believe in the ministration of spirits." This ia not the age nor the country in which the supernatural flourishes. Interest centres About the practical. Haunted houses are reDted without greit difficulty, if the landlord is willing to knock of a portion of the rent. There aie many, however, who will a Imit the exertion at times of Borne peculiar influence swaying our actions. We are led to do things ive ahotild not do of our own volition —the viadom of which we do not appreciate until Afterwards; then we wonder how we cirae to do them. We are forced to learn that word y wisdom is not always that which guides >nto the wisest course. In this- practical ageresnlts or© what people ure looking after. They be iave in what I hey see ; the "evidence of things not 3»eo" is to be weighed in- the future. When a ruin is sick ha wants to get well ; he cares little what medical method is employed if it curep. But if it does not cure he soon begins to doubt the skill of 'the physician, and enquire into his method of medication. A happy thing it is sometimes if some influence indnces investigation bafire it is teo late. Mr E. W. Edmondson, of Me'bourne, writes, 2lst October, 1890: — " During the p»st 16 years I have been ailing periodtcilly from a serious uffection of the kidneys, and in latter years my oomp'aint became more acute, bo that I k»b frequently seized with stabbing pains ia the back. I had often prolonged headaches, the result of liver disorder. For years I thus suffered, and I thought this disorder of the kidneys and liver would bring about a more serious disease. Fina'iy I triad the effects of Warner's safe cure, and not until then did I experience any amelioration in ray condition. The use of this medicine speedily wrought a great change, and four bottles »ffacted a complete cure." Note what Mr. Henry Warwick, of Lonsdale Strnet, Melbourne, says:—"3oth October, 1890.—Gor nome years 1 luve been suffering from frequent attacks of gravel, often with unbearable pains in the baok and right side, and my digestive organs were also out of order. In addition I was uMicted with congestion of the liver and periodical headaches of a severo nature. My suffering was quickly removed when resorting to Warner's safe cure, of which I took four bottles, when the acute pains in the right side, caused by the congestion of the liver, ceased, while my kidneys were restored to healthy action."
