S T 1 IIVIV WUAA1 W Mail Service requires physical and mental ability of a high degree to withstand its hard labors- The high tension to which the nervous system is constantly subjected, has a depressing effect, and soon headache, backache, neuralgia, rheumatism, sciatica, etc., develop in severe form. Such was the case of Mail Carrier S. F. Sweinhart, of Huntsville, Ala., he says: "An attack of pneumonia left me with muscular rheumatism, headache, and pains that seemed to be all over me. I was scarcely able to move for about a month when I decided to give Mites' Pain Pills and Nerve Plasters a trial. In three days 1 was again on mv route and in two weeks I was free from pain and gaining in flesh and strength. Sold by oil Druggists.

I Once i!poii a iitne a donkej 1 fell in to a deep hole, and after nearly starving, caught sight of a passing fox, and implored the stranger to help him out. 44I ain too small to aid you," said the fo\*, "but I will give you some advice. Only a few rods away is a big strong elephant. Call to him and he will get you out in a jiffy."' After the fox had gone the donkey thus reasoned: "I am very weak from want of nourish W I ie niflll. livci j nunc x mmw just as much additional loss oI strength. It I raise my voice to call the elephant 1 shall be weaker. No. I will not waste my substance ihat way. It is the duty of the elephant to come without cailing.*' So the donkey settled himself back and eventually starved to death. Lone after the fox, on passing the hole, saw within a whitened skeleton, and remarked: *?If it hp that the souls of ani mals are transmigrated into men, that donkey will become one ot those merchants who can never afford to advertise.?Ex. | Benson Briefs. | Benson was well supplied with preaching last Sunday morning.
