BOUND TO DUTY.

Concluded.

Butif brave Joho Maleolm was no! foolhardy, neitherdid he wish to have blood upon his hands. He realized that strategy might save himself, the engine and cars, and all on board, where defiance would precipitate ruin. So when the lantera of the conductor signaled him to ‘ go ahead,’ he looked at the sea of human faces crowded around and blocking the track, the waviog of defiant and clenched hands, listened to the tumultuous out- pouring of malice, and appeared to hesitate. Then, as if having made up his mind not attempt the desperate task of foreing his way, he rang the bell and slowly backed the train, giving all to understand that he had abandoned go- ing; and thundering cheers of victory rang from the mass of humana throats. But it was pot so. Before any could re- cover from surprise at the unexpected result, before any could realize the true situation, the engine was reversed, the throttle was thrown wide open, swift headway gained, and with bell ringing and whistle screaming the train shot past the mob and whirled upon its way out into the darkness and out of the of imme- diate danger. The excitement that tollowed was next to terrible. Never could a more angry set of men have been found. They yelled, stamped, swore, shook their fists in impotent rage, and vowed the most fiendish vengeance. Lightning whispers flew along the line and told the story to braveJobn Malcolm, but he only smiled.

‘They'll have time to cool down before we get back,’ he said to the fireman, ‘and I don’t think there is anything to fear ; but I hope my wife wou’t hear it. Any- how, all we have to do now is to attend to business and look out for breakers ahead.’ |

The run was made in safety. The re-} turn began. A few miles distant from the end of the journcy wasa culvert, spauning a deep and rocky ravine—the most dangerous place of all on the road, as it came immediately upon rounding a sharp curve, and with the view conse- quently confined to a very limited space. The night was excessively tempestuous and dark. A thick, heavy mist arose from the neighboring river, and covered everything as with a pall. It was so dense that the headlight had scarcely brilliancy enough to penetrate it.

‘If anything is wrong at Iron Gulch,’ as the place is known, ‘God help us and

all on board,’ said the engineer to the fireman.

‘Slow up Jobo, and jump off, and I'll run over alone. I have no wife or child to mourn for me,’ was the generous re- sponse.

‘Never! If Johu Malcolm has to go down, it will be doing his duty. I should never dare to look my brave and dear little wife in the face again, if I turned coward. But I thank you, Tom, from the very bottom of my heart, There are few who would make such an offer!’

The engineer glanced at his watch and saw that he hac no time to waste if he would make important connections. The loss of but half a dozen minutes would cost perplexing and expensive delay to numerous passcagers. He thought of his often boast that he was never behind time, and putting on still more, dashed forward to face danger, and if it was to be so, die at his post.

‘Now Tom,’ he said, ‘keep a sharp look- out and be ready for anything.’

‘All right. Great God! a woman with a child, standing directly over the culvert, and wildly waviog us back.’

It was to late to stop with certainty ; and halt blinded und dizzy with fear John Malcolm reversed the engine and put on the air brakes.

But as if maddened by restraint, the huge monster struggled against them. As with lightning speed it ran down the grade, Joho Malcolm felt in his heart that it was his own wife and child; and then a fall, a terrible crash, and all was durkness and insensibility. Fora time

-he knew uothing, then he awoke to find himself tenderly cared for in the palace ear, his wife and baby being petted by the passengers, and heard the fireman say :

‘Yes; it was a uarrow escape, and we would have al] gone to eternity if it hadn't been for this brave littie woman walking through the storm and darkness. Yes; the eugine has gone to eternal smash, is jammed in the culvert and is good for nothing. But that’s just what sxved the rest of the cars and all our lives.’

‘Mate, kiss me.’

It was the first sound that had escaped the lips of the stuaned and wounded man ; yet it told of swift returning strength and in a few hours later, when the wrk had been cleared away and a temporaiy track laid over the culvert, John Malcolm and | wife and child returned home with a) pone more heavy than ever before, and

lessed with maoy a heart and tongue for

lives preserved.

And the company was not unmindful of his services aod bravery and devotion to, their interests, and both he and the fire-| man were substantially rewarded and’ promoted, and, though the trial was a.

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 Deen caused by outward application as the present. It is an ed 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 a cure 5 ut with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘nstant 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-

in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful » cures effected by Dr. Mertyrn’s Capsicum Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe

Remedy

T. J. B. Harprna, Esq., Brockville, Ont. :—

Dear Sir—It is now two years since your “Constitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced tome. I have waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be ‘“‘too good to be true.”’

I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop’ from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking censation often preventing me from lying long, I would: feel like smothering and be compelled to sit up in the bed, My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head.

A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see proper. Yours truly,

W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
