Fane tdeonacte ale pha os i il = aren ws — Be Careful.

In speaking of a person’s faults, Pray don't forget your own ;

Remember those with homes of glass, Should never throw a stone ;

If we have nothing else to do But talk of those who sin,

“Tis better we commence at home, And from that point begin.

We have no right to judge a man Until he’s fairly tried,

Should we not like his company, We know the world is wide.

Some may have faults, and who have not, The old as well as young ;

Perhaps we may, tor all we know, Have fifty to their one.

Ill tell you of a better plan, And find it works fuli well,

To try our own defects to cure, Before of others teil.

{nd though I sometimes hope to be Not worse than some | know.

My own shortcomings bid me let The faults of others go.

Then let us all when we commence, ‘'o slander friend or foe,

‘Think of the harm one word inay be ‘To those who little know ;

Remember curses frequently, Like chickens, roost at home ;_

Don’t speak of others’ faults until You've tried to see your own.

A Great Bookkeeper.

We met “Old Mose” yesterday, and noticed that there was 2 dark cloud hovering over his despondent brow.

“What's the matter, Uncle?” we asked.

He shook his head as if he had noth- ing left to live for, and said:.

“T’sein a peck of trouble. De Lord kLows where dis here is gwine to end. Tse done, gib it up.”

“What is the trouble about?”

After several sighs that seemed io come up trom the bottom of his boots, he exclaimed that he was the secretary of the local lodge of colored Free Masons; that he was the custodian of the books and that he was paid by the lodge $10 a month; that every Satur- day night, after the lodge was over, he carried the books home and. turned them over to the “ole ‘ooman, Aunt Dinah,” for safe keeping, and she stowed them away inher trunk, “along wid her. fishal flowers, and sich.” He also stated that he had forgotten to mention to Aunt Dinah thathe was re- ceiving $10 a month for keeping the bodks, and he had uniformly forgotten to tur over to her the aforesaid $10, but had squandered -the same for his own personal expenses; that some un- known demon hadinformed Dinah that Old Mose was getting $10 for keeping the books, and consequently, when he remarked the other evening that it was time tor him to go to the lodge, and requested her to hand him out the books, instead of dcing so she sat down on the trunk, and positively refused to turn over the documents until he paid over the $10. When he told her the $10 were his for keeping the books. she re-

plied :

“Who's been keepin’ dem ar’ books ? Hasn’t I ben keepin’ de books in de trunk all de time? Han’ out dem funds what's comin’ to me forde books

“What did you tell her, Mose ?”

“IT told her [ wanted dem books to keep de minits in, dat she didn’t know how to keep de books, but she ‘lowed she was gwine to show me she knowed how to keep de books, and she is keep- in’’em. De lodge has ’pinted a com- mittee to investigate my accounts, and dare she is squattin’ on the trunk hold- in’ out her han, for de $10 I’se done spent. Dosen’t yer know somebody who wauts $10 wuf! of whitewashin’ done in advance.”

The best part of the foregoing is, that it is based on actual fact.

The editor of a Virginia paper was asked by astranger “ it it were possible that little town kept up four news- papers?” And the reply was: “No ; it takes four newspapers to keep the up town.” |

————— Enjoy Life.

What a truly beautiful world we live in. Nature gives us grandeur of mountains glens and oceans, and thousands of means for enjoyment. We can desire no_ better when in perfect health ; but how often do the majority of people feel like giving it up disheartened, discouraged and worried out with disease, when there is no occasion for this feeling, as every sufferer can easily ob- tain satisfactory proof that Green’s August Flower will make them as free from disease as when born.

The Greatest Medical Diseovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many diiferent diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

DR. MELVIN’S Capsicum PoroUs PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried. and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect acure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physiciansin all ages have thoroughly tested aud well know the effect of Capsiemm; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you haye tried other plas- ters andl liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSIcUM Porous PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it js free from lead and other poisonous material commnonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will eli hundreds to your friends. rs

Ask your druggist for Dr. MrLvrn’s CApst- cum Porovs PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they wiil be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas,
