Faruer Ryan. After Many Days. The words of truth are never lost ; like long-buried seed they will bloom | forth at last. A youth of fifteen once heard the celebrated Flavel preach a plain, powerful sermon, from which he received no immediate impression. Soon after he came to America, where hé lived to be a hundred years of age —a thoughtless careless old man, One day. while sitting alone under a tree, his past lite came vividly before him, and over the hills of memory, clear as the blue above him, rose the days of his youth, and with them the Sabbath moning when he heard the great, sofemn Flave!, The sermon’s thrilling words came back to him like an alarm- bell dver the sdent sea of years, awaken- ing every sleeping sin, Startled and -tine by conscience, he was led at last ‘vot a deep sense of guilt to a for- giving judge and a loving Saviour. He joined a neighboring charch, and for aixieen years lived to be a consistent tolfower of Christ, and then Luke Short Jiad, at ‘the age of one bundred and sixteen years, in the glorions hope of a blessed insmortality. Little thought Flave! that his living words should echo over the sea of time ncross the ocean between the Old and | New Worldgawaking « sleeping soul ro everlasting glory. The seed of truth has a wondrous veauryoctive power. Sown in one heart, plawted and transplanted. it lives and grows from year to year, from century tocentury. Binney sat alone and wrote his book of Christian experienee—full af thoughts born in prayer and bap- tised in tears. One of its printed ies some careless hand had torn and thrown aside, and Richard Baxter chanced to pick up the old torn leaves, and read enough of treth to lead him at last to feel the evil of sin, and to find’ peace and help, and he wrote his “@ali to the Unconverted,” . which Doddridge read, and was awakened and saved,—and many other sleepers his solemn call aroused from their death slumber, and many saints by him were helped to reach their everlasting rest; and Doddridge, saved through God’s help by Baxter, wrote his “Rise and Progress,” which led William Wil berforce to Christ; and. Wilberforce wrote his * Practical View,’ which led Thomas Chalmers to be truly converted while himself preaching an unknown Christ. Let no preacher think his true, earn- est Guede hermeticatty sealed and dead in the vase of some hardened soul. They live even in the dust of memory’s tomb. As the Danish poet teils us the flower upon the earth grows at night, so, in times dark, the flower of truth may grow unseen. +See - Spring Has Come. Spring is the season of the year to adorn and improve one’s home. Who} that loves home does not wish to make it pleasant and attractive? Every apring something should be added im the way of trees, shrubs or plants, to| make it more lovely, to endear if still | more to parents and child. Have you; shade trees, evergreens, flowering | shrubs, roses, climbing plants, surrognd- ing the dear old dwelling, to please the eye, attract the singing birds, and make it a delightful resort to old and young ? if not you cannot begin too s00n to plant them.—The season of the year to do itis upon us. The money expend- ed in doing it cannot be used to better advantage. A man who married Miss Take, atter having courted Miss Lloyd, was told by a friend that it was reported he was married to Miss Lloyd. “It was a Miss Take, I assure you,” he replied.

June, 1377 The Greatest Medical Diseovery 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 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 all who have used them, to act quicker than auy other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do m@re real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and neguize 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 a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MrLvIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all‘other plasters, they now y prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheu , pain im 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, and they have fajled, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN'S Sasscum Porovs PLASTER, You can hardly believe yourown convictions of © its wonderful effec's, though powerfal’ uick in its action, you can rely On ite 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 sell hundreds to your friends. Ask your druggist for DR. MELVIN's CAPSI- CUM Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or; on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, ther wi be mailed, post paid, to apy address in'the United States gr Canadas, MANUFACTURED BY THE NOVELTY PLASTER WORKS Lowell, Mass., U. 8.
