Pleasures of Memory.

What a blessed thing is memory’ How it brings up the pleasures of the past, and hides its unpleasantness! You recall your childhood days, do vou not, and wish.’ they would return? You remember the pleasant associations, while the unpleasant ones are forgotten. Perhaps to vour mind comes the face of some friend. It was once a pale, sad face. It showed marks of pain, lines of care. It seemed to be looking into the hereafter, the unknown future. And then you recalled how it brightened, how it recoved 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, nevreless, perhaps in pain, certainly unhappy. They tell of sleepless nights, restless days, untouched food, unstrung'’ nerves. And then they tell how they became happv, healthy and strong once more. You have heard it often in the past, have you not? You have heard people describe how they were cured and kept in health? You certainly can remember what it is that has helped people in America. If not listen to what Mrs. Annie Jenness Miller, who is known universally as the great reformer, says: “Six years ago, when suffering from mental care and overwork,! received the most pronounced benefit from the use of the 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 unusually pleasing, that the highest pleasure comes from perfect health, and that this great remedy has dome more to produce and prolong health than any other discovery every know in the entire history of the whole world.
