SS een A Song of Spring.

«Coming, coming, coming !’ |

The spring’s dear voice 18 heard From upland, vale and wildwood,

In trill of happy bird. 7 |

‘* Coming, coming, coming !

She whispers from the hills.

And sings it to the tlowers

Asleep by tripping rills. |

‘

in haloed grace she cometh With smiles and frowns to-day, But wooing golden sunbeams Kiss all her tears away. Lo! answering her greeting, Each with a rainbowed crown In crowds the grasses gathers And hide the meadow’s brown.

Soft listening, half-way dreaming, Their feet and flowers stir ;

Impatient of their robing, Reach loyal trees to her.

The hooded ferns are waking, \ The sweet-brier reddens nigh,

The violet and pansy

rynd have thei

‘and Save Money. as we will allow 10 per

1,000 MEN

The willow’s beads are glistening, A bee on idle wing His busy time is humming In welcome to the spring. _ And listening, waiting, listening, For each cadence of her voice, How every heart with nature Doth gratefully rejoice.

A Plea for the Little Ones.

Be kind to little children, not alone to the petted darling at home, but to the poor, dirty-faced little urchin in the street. Do not frown upon him and draw your skirts away, as you pass by. He may not be a manly, handsome little fellow like your own bright-eyed boy at home; he may bea freckled, red-haired boy, with dirt- iegrimed hands and face; but the poor little street waif has just as sensitive a tittle heart, beneath his ragged jacket, as your own boy at home. Then smile upon him as you pass, and, if you have time, speak a kindly word. He will never forget it, but will treasure it in his heart long after the remembrance tit bas passed from you.

Don't push the affectionate, loving éhiid from you when she winds her arins about your crushed you do, ten to one the act will never be forgotten, and the caress never re- peated. Accept this boquet of daisies and dandelions gathered by baby hands for you? Do not grieve the litde ones by throwing them away. Whata con- tented, happy look passes over the little, loving face as you take the child’s floral gift with a kindly word and smile.

When Charley comes home from school so boisterons after his long restraint, and forgets to wipe his feet, or slam the door, don’t dive at him and box his ears, and order him out of your sight. Reprove him, of course, but do it kindly; ‘send him baek to wipe his feet, and then call him to: you, kiss the ruddy cheek, listen to his: petty troubles, to his childish joys. Sympathize with your boy; be his con- fidant and friend in childhood, and when a man, he will not withbold his confidence from you, and great will be your in- fluence.

Do not neglect your four-year old Minnie, because little May takes so much of=your time. Do not bestow all the kisses and caresses upon baby May. Is there pot room enough in your lap for two? Lf not, pass your arm about Minnie and draw her lovingly to your side.

Mrs. Morris loved her little Katie, and bestowed a weilth of affection upon her. She was the pet and idol of her mother’s heart, until the coming baby Mand; then all the petting or caressing was bestowed upon the new comer, and Katie was set aside with only an occasional kiss. How it grieved that baby heart to be thus completely disthroned where once she reigned supreme. One day she was wearily toiling up the stairs when her mother called, ‘‘ Is that you, my darling ?” and Katie replied, in a sweet, sad voice, ‘No, mamma, it isonly me!’ She knew her mother, had thought it was baby Maud. How those pitiful words pierced the mother’s heart, *‘ on/y me—not your darling Maud—it is only me.”

ina moment she realized it all—her seeming indifference to her poor little Katie, whom she really loved as well as little Maud, but whom she had so sadly néglected.. She gathered the little crea- turé io her arms, and kissed over and over again. the sweet, patient face, and trom that day Kate had her share of her mother’s caresses.

Then let us be kind to these little sensi- tive creatures, with their baby hearts so susceptable to kindness and loving looks. Never cause the baby lips to quiver, or the bright eyes to grow dim with tears, by an unkind word or look. Be patient with them; guide their baby footsteps aright, and He who, when on garth, took the little ones in his arms, and blessed them, will reward you.

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, cr since the Commencoment of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when ihe heal- ing of so many different diseases has been 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 al! who have used them, “to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do mdre 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 entireiy dif-

ferent: the instant one is applied the patient = |

will feel its effect.

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used a3 a médical 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, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MErLYIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such Ciseases 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, 2nd they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. }though 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 @f ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a suflicient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr. MELYrN’s CAPSI- cuM Porows 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,
