Unearned Money.

However common may be the desire of sudden wealth, yet it may be safely affirmed that money is never so mucad enjoyed, or so pleasantly or judiciously spent, as when hardly-earned. The exertion used ‘in obtaining it is bene- ficial alike to ‘the health and spirits. It affords pleasure in the contemplation, | as the result of effort and industry, hy thing which unearned money can never impart; and the natural alternation of labor and relaxation tends to preserve the body in health, and. keeps the mind from the injurious extremes of either parsimony or prodigality. Unearndd | money, on the contrary, as it is obtain- ed without an effort, soit is often spent without 2 thought. ‘There is no health- fil activity used in acquiring it; no putting forth of those evergies, the use of which lends so greatly to elevate anil purify; no skill or perseverance called into action; and itis seldom that it is possessed to any great extent without injuring the possessor. It in- duces a distaste for labor and activity ; it lulls to ignoble rest in the lap of circumstances ; it allures to float along with the stream, instead of the healtii- ful labor of stemming the tide of diffi- culty ; and he fiad need be something more than mortal who can posses much of this unearned money without being in his moral nature somewhat para- lyzed and debased. Naturally rampant as are the weeds of sloth and sensuality in the human heart, that condition of life in which there is not only the work to be done, but work which must be done, will be the safest and the best. Money seldom makes men better,either physically or morally, and often makes them worse. Seldom does a man be- come more healthy in bis body as money increases; seldom does his mind become more powerful.as bis purse be- comes heavier; not always does his heart beat more benevolently as his wealth accumulates, Bat if money, even when laudably gained by whole- some exertion and enterprise, be of doubtful or injurious..etlect upon. its possessor, doubly hazardous and pain- ful must be the possession of that money which is unearned and untoiled fox, and which only leaves the disposal of time at the mercy of idle dreaminess or ingenious mischief, and cherishes the growth of those rank weeds of the heart which are successful checked by wholsome exercise and occupation.

Sagacity of a Camel.

The camels with which are travelled the most romote parts of the desert were very different in their ways and habits from those which you get on a frequented route. ‘They were never led. There was not the slightest sign of a track in this part of the desert but the camels never failed to choose the right line. By the direction taken at first starting, they seemed to know the the point (some encampment) for which they were to make. There is always a leading camel (generally the oldest) who marches foremost, and determines the path for the whole party. If it happens that not one of the camels has been accustomed to lead the others, there is a very great difficulty in making a start. If vou force your beust torward for a moment, he will continue to wheel and draw back, at the same time looking at one of the other camels with an expression and gesture, as much as to sey, “after you, sir.’ After some time, however, it be- came understood that one of the beasts has reluctantly consented to take the lead, and he accordingly advances for the purpose. For a minute or iwo he goes on with much indecision, taking first one lineand then another, but soon, by the aid of some mysterious sense, he diseovers the true direction, and follows it steadily from morning to night. When once the leadership is establish. ed, you cannot by any persuasion, and scarcely by auy force, induce a junior camel to walk a single step in advance of the chosen guide.

But who can tell the vast amount of the injury that is being in- flicted on the rising generation—those whoare take our place in the busy world at no distant day—growing up without any knowledge of the present, any study of the past; this ignorance, too, being infused into them by the sanction ot those who should, and doubtless do, know better, did the only think of the injurious effect of their insane course, Let the head of every family think of this, and place im the hands of those for wliom he is responsible, the means of acquiring some knowledge of the moving panorama in which we act the different parte,

Commencement of the Christian Evra.

€

There never has been a timé whena the heal- ing of so many different diseases has Déen eaused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of tho entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinar? 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 plasiers are slow of action, and reguire to be worn continually to effect acure; but with thtse it is entirely aif- ferent: the ‘nstant one is ap lied the patient will feel its effect.

Physiciansin ail ages have thoroughly tested

and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it~has always been more or Jess 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. MELvrn’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their praetiee, 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 acertain cure, ask your druggist for YR. MELVIN’s CAPsicum Porous PLASTER, You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effeets. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety - foi 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 s°Ul hundreds to your friends. _ Ask your druggist for Dr. MELvIN’s CAPS! cuM Porous 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 eny address in the United States or Canadas.
