SS EEE EE ee eer ea Ss-.mLr era a A ~ Home Conversational Training: There is versation American. than the ot pronunciation than the best conversationalists are not rapid talkers. One trouble with wus 15, each one likes to doall the talking, therefore Americans are not good listners. But : soraqgt mere talking 1s not conversauon. [n almost all home circles there is much talking done during the day, but we fear there are few who do not re- serve their most brilliant conversation- al powers for other assemblages than the home group. Many a father comes home tired; he has worked hard and talked a great deal, told amusing anec- dotes and displayed much wit. He has come home to rest. He takes out his pauper, and is soon oblivious to every- thing around him, Wife would like to tell him many harrassing afflictions of the day, and would like to hear some of his interesting experiences, but if he were a deaf mute he could not be more. silent, only an occasional grunt answered her many attempts at con- versation; and the children, except the good-night kiss, and often not even that. are not noticed. Such a home, whether the abode of wealth, or other- wise, cannot be a healthy and happy one. - As'a parallel, draw around the even- ing lamp of another home circle. The father tells the anecdotes from the papers as he reads them; mother faugtll her sweet, low laugh, and the children burst into merry ha! ha’s ! To watch them as they ask questions, and listen to the answers and patient ex- planation, the wonderment, interest, and thought imprinted on your young faces, isa picture for an artist. This home education is a heritage more valu- able «than land or money; and one beautiful recompense in life is, that in making others happy we bring happl- ness to ourselves, Parents who prac- tice self-denial, and endeavor, by cheer- ful conversation ani playful wit, to en- liven*home life, will reapa rich reward in the better thoaghts and nobler actions of their children, and will ex- perience ‘the traest and best content- ment themselves. - +: << +-- - --- The Debt to Mothers. Mothers live for their children, make self-sacrifices for them, and manifess their tenderness and love so freely,that the name mother is the sweetest in human language. And yet some, youth- ful and aged, know but little of the anxiety, the nights of sleepless and ainfal solicitude which their mothers lake spent over their thoughtless way wurdness. Those loving hearts go down to their graves with their hours of secret agony untold. As the mother watches by night, or prays in the pri- vacy of her closet, she weighs well the words she will address to. her son in order to lead him to a manhood of honor and usefulness. She will not tell him all the griefs and deadly fears which beset her soul. She warns him trembling, lest she say overmuch. She tries to charm him with cheery love while her heart is bleeding. No»worthy and successful man ever yet knew the breadth and depth of ob- ligation which he is under to the mother who guided his steps at the time when his character for virtue and purity was so nafrowly balanced against a course]: of vice and ignominy. Let the dutiful son do his utmost to smooth his mother’s pathway, let him obey as impli¢itly as he can her wishes and ad- vice, let-him omitnething that will con- tribute to her peace,;rest and happi- ness, and yet he will part with her at the tomb with the debt to her not half discharged. *-_<eo-+- Sensible Advice.

The 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 diseasés has veen caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire popuiation of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters. DR. MELVIN’S CAPsicuM Porovs 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 to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘nstant 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 @ 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 cures effected by DR. MELVIN’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 of liniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for YR. MELVIN’s CApsitcumM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and ick in its action; you cam rely on its 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 sali 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, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas. “MANUFACTURED BY THE NOVELTY PLASTER WORKS Lowell, Mass., U.S. A., G.
