Pleasures of Contentment.
_T have arich neighbor who is always so busy that he has no leisure to laugh ; the whole business of his life is to get money, and more money. He is still drudging, saying that Solomon says, “The diligent hand maketh rich,” And itis true, indeed ; but he considers not that it is not in the power of riches to make a man happy; for it was wise- ly said by a man of great observation that “there may be us many miseries beyond riches as on this side of them.” And, yet, God delivers us from pinching poverty, and grant that, having a com- petency, we may be happy and thank- tul. Letus notrepineor so much as think the gifts of God unequally dealt, if we see another abound in riches, when as God knows, the cares that are in the keys that keep those riches, hang often so heaylly at the rich man’s girdle that they clog him with weary days and restless nights, even when others sleep quietly. Wesee but the outside of the rich man’s happiness; and few consid- er him to be like the silkworm, that when he seemed to play, isat the same time spinning her bowels, and consum ing herself. And this rich men do— loading themselves with corroding cates, to keep what they have already
ot. Letus, therefore, be thankful for
ealth and competence, and above all for a quiet conscience.

Greatest Medical Discovery since he Creation of Man, or since the ———S— of the
stian
There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present.
It is an ee fact that over of the entire popuiation of the globe resort to the use of nary 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 “4 ree to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.
Physicians in ali ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical t for an outward application; but it ig only of very recent date that its advan-
in @ porous plaster have been discovered.
, 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 baek, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters or liniment. After you have tried other plas-
ters and liniments, and they have failed, and - ou want a certain cure, ask your druggist for
MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick its action, you can rely on its safety
or 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 ell hundreds to = friends.
k your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPsI- cuUM PoROUS PLASTER, and take no other; or, on r 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.
