The Old Man.
Don’t laugh at that old gentleman, bovs. Itis true, he’s an odd object. He is queer and crooked, and his voice is thin and reedy, but don’t let him see
vou laugh. * He looks as though he could have nothing more of any importance to do in the world. And, indeed, the grave for him 1s very near, and | think he will not be sorry to lie down in it. But think of this, boys; once he was young—young as you are. He went to school—doubtless ina blue jacket with brass buttons, and a neat ruffled eollar such as boys wore in his days. lle hoped to be a doctor, or a lawyer. He was blithe and light upon his feet, he whistled as he came up the street. Perhaps he could jump farther and throw his ball better than you. Yes, onee, and if you live von will be as old as be—and old and feeble some day. Your limbs will totter; you will lean upon a cane; your voice will be shrill and weak, and your hopes and ambitious dead, and the grave near. So don’t laugh at the old man, boys, but treat him with kindness and
he was young

Agreeable People.
Rest assured, you cannot be pleasing atall times and seasons, or to all per- sons, without trying to be agreeable. You must not be to brilliant. Clever things cannot be said unobtrusively enough. <A person so brilliant as to make others feel that your efforts are above theirs will be detested. If you are well satisfied with vourself, and sure of pleasing, you will be apt to succeed. Characters pleased with them- selves please others.for they are joyous and natural in mien, and are at liberty, frem thinking of themscives, to pay successful attenteon to others. Still the self-conceited and the bragging are never attractive, self being the topic on which all are fluent and none interest- ing. They who dwell on self in any way—the self-deniers, the self-impro- vers, are hateful to the heart of civilized Try to adjust yourself to the peculiarities of others, and appear interested in them. ‘The belle is a lady who has an air of enjoying herself with whomsoever she talks. We like those who seem to delight in our company. You must not overdo it, and thus make yourself suspected of acting; but do not imagine you will please without trying. These who are careless of pleasing are never popular. Those who do not care how they took invariably look ugly. You will never please with- out doing all these things, and more. After all, what a Pecksniffian business it is to go into—what subjugation of self is required! No wonder there are so few thoroughly agreeable people.

The Light of a Cheerful Face.
man.
There is no greater everyday virtue than cheerfulness. This quality in man among men is like sunshine to the day, or gentle, renewing moisture to parched herbs. The light of a cheerful tace diffuses itself, and communicates the happy spirit that inspires it. The sourest temper must sweeten in the at- mosphere of continuous good humor,
As well might fog, and cloud, and vapor, hope to cling to the sun-illum- ined landscape, as the blues and morose- ness to combat jovial speeches and ex- hilirating laughter. Be cheerful al- ways. ‘There is no path but will be easier travelled, no load but will be |

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.
