BomEsopy’s lips‘were close to mine ; Thus tempted I couldn’t resist.

Roguish and rosy, a sweet little mouth Was suddenly softly kissed.

Somebody’s eyes looked up and frowned With such a reproving glance.

** If kisses were wicked ?” | asked my pet ; Then the eyes began to dance.

And smiling, the little maid answered, As I knelt there at her feet : “They must be a little bit naughty, Or they never would be so sweet.

TIME FLIES. BY LAURA SANFORD. Time flies: But with what wings ? With wings of butterflies, To joy it clings, Now here, now there. —Who sighs For joy, tinds joy and dies.

Time flies : But with what wings ? With wings of bees it hies. Who works and sing: In rich content all day, Will bear bright gold away.

Time flies: ; But with what wings? With wings of birds to skies, Where sunlight flings Wide open heaven’s door. Life ! light ! who cares for more ?

Time flies . But with what wings? With angel wings it tries To lift low things Up from the heavy sod, Up from earth’s griefs to God !

That ’ere Dog.

At noon yesterday there was a piece of bedcord, a dog and a man on the Woodward avenue portico of the City Hall. If the dog coull have had his say about it he would probably have offered the man for sale ata low figure; but the dogs in this country are dumb. It was the man who explained :

what I say,’ replied the man as he lowered | Nov. 26—3m wed & sat

his voice and drew offa little. ‘You see, he took the durndest streak on you ever heard of. One day he left home and come baek with a wallet in hismouth. There waa $600 in it. Next day he brought home a diamond ear-ring. Next night he came home with a gold watch and chain, and on his next trip he brought home a thousand dollars in greenbacks. In the course of the last month this ’ere dog has brought home over ten lost pocket-books, seven gold watches, five diamond rings, and six wolf robes.’

‘Great heavens! but is that so?’ ex- claimed the citizen, looking the dog over anew.

‘Yes, that is so, and that’s why we’ve lost confidence in him, and why I want to sell him. I’m afraid he don’t come by those things honestly, and they are a bur- den on my conscience. The old woman has turned everything over to the Sheriff to be restored, and she says if we keep the dog we're aiding and abetting rob- bery.’

‘If I take the dog I shall simply keep him in the barn,’ observed the citizen.

‘Just so. If you let him out he’ll find a lost wallet, sure.

‘I shall see that he remains locked up day and night, my honest friend, and, by the way, let me compliment you on your rare display of conscience. You deserve the thanks of every honest man. Here are $7 for your dog.’

‘Thank you,’ was the humble reply, and that meek and humble look didn't Jeave the man’s face until the dog and his new owner had turned acorner. Then he didn’t say anything. He merely gave vent to a chuckle which sounded like ice breaking off a maosard roof in a thawing day und coming down on a lot of scrap- jrov.— Detroit Free Press.

Constitutional Catarrh Remedy

CURES CATARREH. Hear wat a iwevere nd Gentloran says of the Constitutional Ren ely. ae 7 . . T J. B.. HARDING isq., Brockville, Ont. :—

o Oe. ‘ aaa ‘

Dear Sir—Itis now two years since your “Constitutional Catarrh Remedy” was imtro- duced to me. 1 have waited this long to see ‘f the cure would remain permanent before do-

to you, as at first the happy

ing this, my duty, fe to be ‘too good to be

effects seemed to me rue.” I was afilicted in my head for years before ] suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Cireular I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. The inward “drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation 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 yom may see proper. Yours truly, W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister. Port Elgin, Ont., Aug. 24, 1875.

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

There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been eaused 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 a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: tho ‘nstant one is applied the patient will feelits 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 cures effected by Dr. Mrivrn’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTBRS, 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 al 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 acertain cure, ask your druggist for

r. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Ithough powerful and quick 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 eommonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will soli hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr. MELvrn’s CAPsT- 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 orCanadas,
