Cold lay the midnight, cold and black On sleeping earth and sea ; The noon paused on her pallid track And the stars crept out to see. As, bowed with age and bent and blear, The Old Year took his way Across Earth’s little atmosphere Toward the slow-moving day. A sound of revel smote and rang In joyous merry din, ‘‘The New Year comes,” glad voices sang ; ** Arise and let him in.” Sadly the Old Year paused ; a sigh Broke from his brave old heart, “The world cares not that I must die, And smiles to see me part. ‘When I was young, it welcomed me With gifts and song and praise. These many months and days ° i ‘* Why should men joy to see men go-- I, their old, loving friend, Departing, grieved and sad and slow, With none to watch my end ?” But as the Old Year spoke, a sound Of voices low and sweet Struck on his ear, and, peering round, He stayed his lagging feet. ‘Ewo lovers leaned them side by side, On either cheek a tear, And with a strong, sad voice, one cried: “*Good-bye, good-bye, Old Year! *: Good-bye, O kindly friend and true, Who wove our lives in one. Other good years may come ; but you Aro still our dearest one.”’ Then smile the Old Year, as he went, His misty eyes shone bright, And, fearless now and quite content, He fared into the night. And when he met the New-born Year, All rosy, blithe, and gay, He cheered him with a father’s cheer And speed him on his way. ‘* Heaven go with thee, fair son, and keep ; And this thy guerdon be, That at thy end some eyes may weep As they have wept for me.” —N. ¥. Independent. Rules of Conduct. Never associate with bad company. Have good company or none. Never look over the shoulder of another who is reading or writing. Never punish your child for a fault to which you are addicted yourself. Never appear to notice a scar, de- formity or defect of any one present. Never arrest the attention of an ac- quaintance by touch. Speak to him. Never exhibit anger, impatience, or excilement when an accident happens. Never answer questions, in general company, that have been put to others. Never calla new acquaintance by the Chr’stian name unless requested to do so. Never attempt to draw the attention of the company constantly upon your- self. Never, when travelling abroad, be over-boastfal in praise of your own country. Never pass between two persons who are talking together, without an apology. Never should the lady accept of ex- pensive gifts at the hands of a gentle- man not related or engaged to her. Gifts of flowers, books, music, or con- fectionery may be accepted. Never insult another by harsh words when applied to for a favor. Kind words do not cost much and yet they to whom they are spoken. Never attempt to convey the im- pression that you are a genius, by im- itating the faults of distinguished men. Because certain great men were poor pen-men, wore long hair, or had other peculiarities, it does not follow that you will become great by imitating their eccentricities.

Ch’town, Nov. 25—4w 2aw nF + > * SA RH ql f AY CC APSICUM) OF Tho 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 deen eaused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globo resort to the use of ordinary plasters. Dr. MELVIN’s CarstcuM POROUS PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, te 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 reguire to be worn continually to effect acure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘nstant 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 as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- cogs in'a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful enres effected by Dr. Mrivin’s CAPsicuM Porous PLASTeRS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases 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, and they have failed, and ou want acertain cure, ask your druggist for ym. MELVrIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLAST§R. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and uick in its action, you can rely on its yy! ‘or the most delicate person to wear, as it poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will e7ll hundreds to your friends. Ask your druggist for Dr. Mrtvrn’s CAPst- cum Ponovs 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 suy address in the United States or Canadas.
