[tis a high, solemn, awftl thought for every individual man, that his earth- ly influence which has a commence- ment, will never through all ages, were he the very meanest of us, bave an end! What is done has already blended itself with boundless ever: living, ever-working universe, and will iso work there for ror xd OV evil, openly or secretly, throughout all time. But the life of every ‘man, is as the well- spring of 2 etream whose small begio- nings are indeed plain to all. and whose ulterior course and destination, as yet winds through the expanse ol infinite vears, only the Omniscient can discern. Will it mingle with the neighboring rivulets as a tributery, or receive them as their sovereign? Is it to be a name- less brook, and will its tiny waters among millions of other brooks and riils inerease the current of some world’s river? Or is to be itself a Rhine of Donau, whose going forth are to the utmost lands, its flood an everlasting boundary-line on the globe itself the bulwark and highway of whole kingdoms and continents ? We know not; only in either case we know its path is to be to the ocean, its waters, were thy but a handful, are here and cannot be annihilated or permanently held back.
Now.
One of the ways in which we too often cheat ourselves of improvement, is by postponing our reforms to a mo- ment not yet come. ‘What are you voing to do this morning ?” asks some one, and the answer is ready: “ Oh, nothing this morning, but to-morrow morniog I shall begin’’— reading, or sewing, or studying, or working for the poor, as the case may be—and so the present idleness is veiled by the thought of future achievements, Or sometimes it is only for an hour that we are idle. We dream away fifty or -ixty minutes, easing our conscience with the thought that we are going direetly or, yet lingering inexcusably all the time. Strange it is, that this oft-repeated excuse is yet potent when we whisper to ourselves, we are not idfing, oh, no! we are only indulging ina little season of waiting before we enter on the task belonging to us. So we go on, through hours and days, through weeks and months, through years at least—and still the new life has not been lived. and still we stand dallying with this “ now’’as once with all those other nows which make up our yesterday. Let us wake up to one truth. Resolutions for the future are no resolutions at ali. To begin at all, in anything, we must begin now, this day, this hour, this moment, or we shall never begin. For we are what we are now—and as we live to-day so shall we live to-morrow, and the next day, if thus we suffer our resolutions to bind us toour want of present effort. Once more, then, let your resolves be for the present moment, let your deeds’ be instant, for thus and thus only can you reach the good for which you strive. It is not what you are planning but what you are doing, reveals your true self.

A Youna Samson.—From Layfny- ette, Indianna: Little Allie 1 at four-year-old, takes great interest in the story of Samson. Not long since} he had his hair eut close in the prevail- ing style, and soon after was seen in the vain attempt to turn a somersauit. | Some one remarked : |
“Allie, you don’t seem to succeed very well in turning somersaults.”
“No,” he gravely replied; “fam not! as strong as Tt was; “I have fost all my } hair.”

The claims of many American fum-| ilies to estates in England and Wales will lose even their present slim chance of realizing anything by a new proper- | ty limitation act which goes into oper-, ation there with the advent of 1879. The act debars all claims older than a dozen years, by confirming tenants in the possession of lund which they have uninterruptedly occupied for that length of time, without paying rent or
otherwise acknowledging the title of! any person.

The Greatest Medical Diseovery since the Creation of Man, or since the mencement of the Christian Era,
There never has been a time whe the heal- ing of so many different diseases has deen 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 {s entirely dit- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.
Physicians in 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 cures 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 a3 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 DR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quiek in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sali hundreds to your friends.
Ask your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPSI- cum Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on reeeipt 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.
