Pleasures of Memory.
What * blessed thing is memory! How it brings up the pleasures of the past, and hides its unpleasantnesses! You recall you? childhood days, do you ■ot, and wish they would return? You remember the pleasant associations, while the unpleasant ones are forgotten. Perhaps to your mind comes the ‘face of gome friend. It was once a pale, sad face. It showed marks of pain, lines of care. It seemed to be lookingjnto the hereafter, the unknown future. And then you recalled how it brightened, how It recovered its rosy hue, how it became a picture of happiness and joy. Do you remember these things? Many people do, and gladly tell how the health returned, how happiness came back, how the world seemed bright. They tell how they were once weak, nerveless, perhaps in pain, certainly, unhappy. They tell of sleepless nights, restless days, untouched food, unstrung nerves. And then they tell how they became happy, healthy and strong once more. You have heard it often in the past, have you not? You have heard people describe how tlihy were cured and kept in health? You certainly can remember ijhßt it is that has so helped people in America. If not, listen to what Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller, who Is known universally as the great dress reformer, says: “Six years ago, when suffering from mental care and overwork, I received the most pronounced benefit from the use of that great medicine, Warner’s Safe Cure." Ah, now you remember. Now you recall how many people you have heard say this same thing. Now you recollect how much you have heard of this great Cure. Now you are ready to admit that memory is, usually pleasing, that the highest pleasure comes from perfect hearth, and that this great remedy has done more to produce and prolong health than any other discovery ever known in the entire history of the whole world. Monet that is given to attract applause from men is never entered upon the books in heaven.
