From One to Another.
far overboard Anu amber heaven fades to faintest gray ; Sky stoops to sea, sea rises gray to sky, Wave rolls on wave, for ever, sigh on sigh The death of day.
—-—
Art thou too dead * Che sea that rolls between, is that death's sea * May no hand touch, no solemn echoes fall, None auswering cry if one to another call, From land to sea?
Canstithou forget ? Wandering forever on some unknown shore, Living or ised, oblivious or most blest-- Perchance thy feet at last have found a rest For evermore ?
Living or dead, Star-eyed and pale thy race seems ever near ; Remembering, Love, in life one hour, one day, Call once from out the dark, then turn away One heart may hear.
Hast thou not heard Passionate moan of waves that break in tears, Break on, and die, and still may not forget The minute perfection of regret These weary years ?

Fashionable Women.
Fashion kills more women than toil and sorrow. Obedience to fashion is a greater transgression of the laws of woman's nature, a greater injury to her physical and mental situation, than poverty and neglect. The slave-woman at her task will live and grow old, and will see two or three generations of her mistresses fade and pass away. The washer-woman, with scarce a ray of hope to cheer her in her toil, will live to see her fashionable sisters die all around her. The kitchen maid is hearty and strong, while her lady has to be nursed like a sick baby.
It is a sad truth that the fashion- tampered women are almost worthless for all the ends of human life. They have but little force of character. ‘They have still less power of moral
will, and quite as little of physical en-|
ergy. They live for no great purpose in life; they ageomplish no worthy ends. They are only doll forms in the hands of milliners and servants, to be dressed and fed to order. They dress nobody, and they save nobody. They write no books; they set no rich ex- ample of virtue and of womanly life. if they rear children, servants and nurses do all, save to give them birth. And when reared what are they? What dco they ever amount to but weak acions of the old stock? Who ever heard of a fashionable woman’s child exhibiting any virtue or power of mind for which it became eminent? Read the biographies of our great and good men and woman. Not one of them had a ‘fashionable mother. They nearly all sprung from strong-minded women, who had about as little to do with the fashion as with the changing clouds. —--»+7e-— --—
Do Your Best.
There is a fable told about a king’s garden in which, all at once, the trees and all the flowers began to pine and make complaint.
The oak was sad because it could not bear flowers; the rosebud was sad be- cause he could bear no fruit; the vine was sad because it had to cling to the wall, and could cast no shadow.
“Tam not of the least use in world,” said the oak.
“| might as well die, since I yield ao fruit,’ said the rosebush.
“ What good can I doin the world ?” said the vine.
Then the king saw a littie pansy, which at this time held up its glad, fresh face, while all the rest were sad.
And the king said :—“ What makes you so glad, while all the rest pine and are so sad ?”’
“T thought said the pansy, “ that you wanted me here, because here you planted me ; and so then I made up my mind that 1 would try and be the hest little pansy that could be.”
Reader, are you like the oak, the rosebush, and the vine—doing nothing bécause you cannot do all that others do? Then rather be like the pansy,

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 been eaused by outward application as the present,
is an es fact that over half of the pulation of the globe resort to the use ordinary plasters.
Dr. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS
and do your best in the spot where}
God’s hand has placed you. Visiting the Sick.
All who make any pretension to the office of shepherds visit their flocks ; yet there isa wide difference in the kind of visits which shepherds give. One does it formally, to discharge his duty and to quiet conscience; another unakes it his delight. And of those who make it their delight, one gogs forth on the regular plan of addressing all in somewhat of the same style ; while another speaks freely, according as the wounds of his sheep come to view. On all occasions, this difficult ‘and trying work must be gone about with a full heart, if it is to be gone about successfully atall. There is little in it to excite, for there is not the pres- ence of numbers, and the few you see at a time when they are in their calmest, every-day mood. Hence there is need of being full of grace, and need of feel- ing cab God did visit every hearer by your means. Our object is not to get duty done, but to get souls saved,

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 one 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 @ porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderfui eures effected by DR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over a)) other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and aji such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and
‘ou 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 — in its action, you can rely on its safety
or the most delicate ae 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 seli hundreds so your friends,
k your druggist for DR. MELYIN’s CAPsI- 6UM PoROUS PLASTER, and take no other; or, on are of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, te any address in the United States or Canadas.
