bring out the interesting point of how fara manhas aright,to make a fool of himself. Some men aspire to a fool’s immortality in one way and some in another, but they all obtain it. Fif- teen hundred years ago Simon Stylites spent 37 years on the top of a monu- ment, and since bis day, hundreds of pugilists have let themselves be pounded to death, while millions more or loss gritty jolt-heads have fooled themselves into an early grave or the penitentiary. The fool element in sotiety is large, and these physical miseries appear to be the only means they have of becoming distinguished, and what will they do if these are ex- tinguished? The poor wretches might be compelled to take up honest work for a living, and that would hurt their feelings terribly.

Major Cavagnari, the distinguished Indian Officer, who negotiated the terms of peace with Yakob Khan at Gundamak, is an Englishman by birth, his father having been a Genoese, who eame to settle in London from the north of Htaly after the overthrow of the French empire. He entered the military service of the East Indix Company in April, 1858. Por his ser- vices on the frontier he was recom- mended by Lord Mayo for a Compan- ionship in the Order of the Star of India, which deeoration was conferred on him on Jan, 1, 1877. He was last year appointed second member of Sir Neville Chamberlain's mission to Cabul. —2 2 ae i The new-born zeal of the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Edinburg in favor of the bill for legalizing the mar- riage with a deceased wife’s sister. is said to find inspiration in the wish of the Qucen that her daughter Beatrice should marry the widowed Prince Louis of Hesse and take charge of the children of her deceased sister, the Princess Alice.

I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. 1a readiny in your Circular I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. ‘The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled tosit upin the bed.

STA'TIONS,

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or sineo the Cammencement of the ’ Christian Era.

There never has been a time whea the heal- ing of so many diferent diseases has been caused bv outward application as the present. It is an widisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use

rdinary plasters. OTe M Sivan 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 te effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘nstant one is applied the patient rill feel its effect. r Physi¢iansin 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 haye been discovered, Being, however, convinced of the wonderful cures’ effected by Dn. Mrivin’s Capsicum Porous Puiasters, and their superiority over all other piasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such eases ag have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER, You can hardly believe yourown 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 sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will ec) hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for Dr, MrEtLvin’s CAPstI- cuM Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for iive, or $2 for a dozen, they will be matled, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas.
