She left him there. He watched her take the ear for home, and then he re- turned the fish-pole and crossed the street and said to an acquaintance:

“Tom, I’m suffering with neuralgia, and the excursion is off till next week. ‘Too bad but we can never tell what a day may bring forth.”

There was chicken and pickles and other good things on the table at dinner, but he never smiled. Even when his wife wished she was an orphan, if that was the way they were fed, he never betrayed the gloom in his heart. It was only when she handed him the bottle he had so carefull tucked into the basket, and he saw it label ed: “Good for little Children,’ that he said :

“Mary, it is an awful thing for a wife to get the impression that her husband is a coldblooded liar!”

«Tt must be,” she replied as he took the other chicken leg.—Detroit Free Press.

Disagreeable Habits.

It is easy to form a disagreeable habit, but not so easy to drop it again. Persisted in, they become a _ second nature. Stop aud think before yeu al- low yourself toformthem. There are disagreable habits of mind and body, like seowling, winking, twisting the month, biting the nails, continually picking at something, twirling a key, or fumbling at a chain, drumming with the fingers, screwing and twisting at a chair, or whatever you could lay your hands on. Don’t do any of these things. Cultivate a calm, quiet man- ner. Better beastatue than a jumping- jack,

There are much worse habits thar these, to be sure, but we are speaking only of very little things that are only sunnoying when persisted in. There are habits of speech, also, such as be- ginning every speech with “you see,” or “you know,” “now-a,” “I don’t care,” “ tell you now.” Indistinet ut- terance, sharp and nasal tones, a slow drawl, avoid them all. Stop and think what you wish to say, and then let ev- ery word drop from your lips as smooth as a new silver coin. Have a care about your waysof sitting and standing and walking. Before you know it, you willfind your habits have hardened into a eoat of mail that you cannot get rid of withont a terrible effort— habits which render you obnoxious to all around you.

The roads leading over the hill of life are numerous , some people take the road which is bright and gay—on which flowers of the riches hues are blooming—but they find that, before they are half way, the flowers have faded, all is bleak, they are wearied, and are glad to lie down and die; others strive fo go over the steep banks which lead to fortune and to fame, but the paths on which they walk are weak and rugged; some stop at a deep

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 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: the instant oue 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. 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 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 your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although 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 commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufticient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSI- 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 any address in the United States or Canadas.
