BEAUTIFUL THINGS. Beautiful faces are those that wear

It matters little if dark or fair Whole-souled honesty printed there.

Reautiful eyes are those that show, Like crystal panes where hearth-tires ylow, Reautitul thoughts that burn below.

Beautiful lips are those whose words Leaps from the heart like songs of birds, Yet whose utterance prudence girds.

Beautiful hands are those that do Work that is earnest and brave and true, Moment by moment the lony day through,

Beautiful feet are those that yo On kindly ministries to and fro Down lowliest ways, if God will it so,

Beautiful shoulders are those that hear ceaseless burdens of homely care With patient grace and daily prayer.

Beautiful lives are those that bless Silent rivers of happiness, Whose hidden fountain but few may guess.

Beautiful twilight, at set of sun, Keautiful goal, with race well won, Beautiful rest, with work well done.

Beautiful graves, where grasses creep, Where brown leaves fall, w here drifts lie deep, Over worn-out hands—oh, beautiful sleep !

A n Important Duty.

When young menare brought to ruin by extravagent expenditure, the fault ‘< often not wholly their own—and this is especially true of those who are living with their parents and are under age.

The father and mother, if they do their

dutv apd are not culpably negligent, will know the amount of the income of the son, and the source from which it is derived, and also pretty nearly what his expenditures are, and the knowledge that they are giving atten- tion to these matters will be a strong check against wrong doing, if any check isrequired. They will also know how he spends his evenings, and what his associates are, and ifthe is spending money freely they will find out where it comes from. the boys, and especially of those hold ing respousible positions, neglecta duty they owe both to themselves and to those in their employ, if they do not inform themselves as to their habits, that they may grow up tiegal, indus- trious, and honest.

Golden Words.

Do not keep the alabaster boxes of vourleve and tenderness sealed up un- til your friends are dead. Fill lives with sweetness. Speak approving, cheering words while their ears can hear them, and while their hearts can he thrilled by them. ‘The things you mean to say When they wre gone, say before they go. ‘The flowers you mean to send for their coffins, send to bright- en and sweeten their homes before they leave them. If my friends have ala- baster boxes laid away, full of perfumes of sympathy and affection, which they intend to break over my dead body, I would rather they would bring them out in my weary hours, and open them, that I may be refreshed and cheered by them while I need them. I would ra ther have a bare coffin without a flower. a funeral without an eulogy, than a life without the sweetness of love and sympathy. Let us learn to anoint our friends beforehand for their burial. Postmortem kindness does not cheer the burdened spirit. Flowers on the coffin cast no fragrance backward over the weary days.

Energy, Thrift, Industry.

Experience continually contradicts the notion that a poor young man can- not rise. If we look over the list of rich men, we find that nearly all of them began life with little or nothing. To one familiar with the millionaires of the United States, a score of examples will occur. On the other hand, the sons of rich men, who begin life with the capital which so many poor young men covet, frequently die beggars. It would probably not be going too far to say that a large majority of such moneyed individuals cither fail outright or grada- ally eat up the capital with which they commence their career. And the rea- son is plain, brought up in expensive habits, they spend entirely too much. Educated with high motives, of personal importance, they will not succeed, as they are passed in the race of life by others with less capital originally, but more energy, thrift and industry. For these virtues, after all, are worth more than money. ‘They make money, in fauet. Nay, after it is made, they en- able the possessor to keep it, which rich men pronounce to be more difficult than the making. The young man who be- gins life with the resolution always to lay by part of his income, is sure, even without extraordinary ability, gradu- ally to acquire a sufficiency, especially as habits of economy, which the resolu- tion renders necessary, will make that a competency for him which would be quite insufficient for an extravagent person. It is really what we save, more than what we make, which laads us to fortune, He who enlarges his expens-

The Greatest Medical Discovery 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 different 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 Carsicum Porovs 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 aetion, and require to be worn continually to effeet a cure; 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 and well know the effect of Capsicum; 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. MELYIN’S CAPSICUM PorRovS 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 have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for JR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porovus PLASTER. Yon can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and

uick in its action, you ean rely on its safety _ the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the mapufactute ef ordin- ary plasters, One trial is a-sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to your friends. .

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