Ee aE eae ag htt Gems of Thought. Prayer is the voice of faith —Horne. She that is loved is safe.—Jeremy Taylor. Too low they build who build be- neath the stars.— Young. Experience, that chill touchstone whose sad proof reduces all things from their hue.—Byron. We should often have reason to be ashamed of our most brilliant actions if the world could see the motives from which they spring.—Rouchefou- cauld, Music is the art of the prophets, the only art that can calm the agitations of the son]; it is one of the most mag- nificent and delightful presents God has given us.—Luther. Every man's experience of to-day is that he was a fool yesterday and the, day before yesterday. To-morrow he will most likely Le of exactly the same opinion.—Charles Mc Kay. Faith builds the dungeon and the lazar-house it sublimest shrines; and up through roofs of stone, that shut out the eye of heaven, ascends the ladder where the angels glide to and fro—prayer.— Bulwer Lytton. The consciousness of being loved softens the keenest pang, even at the moment of parting, yea, even the eternal farewell is robbed of half its bitterness when uttered in «accents that breathe love to the last sigh.—Ad- dison. ‘What is wanting,” said Napoleon, one day, to Madame Campan, “in order that the youth of France be well edu- cated ?”? “Good mothers,” was the re- ply. The emperor was most forcibly struck with the answer. ‘Here,” said he, “is a system in one word.”—Abbott. No language can express the power and beauty and heroism and majesty of a mother’s love. it shrinks not where the man cowers, and grows stronger where man faints, and over the wastes of worldly fortune sends the radiance of its quonchless fidelity like a star in heaven.—Chappin. Nature is sensitive, aos clevat- ing. How cunningly she hides every wrinkle of he inconceivable antiquity under roses and violets and morning dew! Every inch of the mountains is scarred by unimaginable convulsions, et the new day is purple with the Gisom of youth and love.—Emerson. The little I have seen of the world teaches me to look upon the errors of others in sorrow —not in anger. When I take the history of one poor heart that has sinned and suffered, and represent to myself the struggles and temptations ithas passed through, the brief pulsations of joy, the feverish inquietudeof hope and fear,the pressure of want, the desertion of friends, I would fain leave the erring soul of my fellowman with Him from whose hand it came.— Longfellow. When a pump is frequently used the water pours out at the first stroke, because it is high; but if the pump has not been used fora long time the water gets low, and when you want it you must pump a long while, and the water comes only after great efforts. It isso with prayer. If we are instant in prayer, every tittle circum- stance see the disposition to pray, and desire and words are always ready; but if we neglect prayer itis difficult for us to pray, for the waterin the in the well gets low.— Felix Neff.

DAVIES & C9. Ch’town, Nov. 25—4w 2aw 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 diseases has deen 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 Ponovus 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 yore real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continuaily 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 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 cures effected by Dr, Mrivin’s Capsicum Porous PLAsST#exs, 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 a3 have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you haye tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and ou want a certain cure, ask your druggist for MBELVIN's CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerfu) and uick in its action, you can rely on its safety or the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from Jead and other poisonous materia) 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 CApst- cUM Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for ene, $1 for five, or $2 fora ozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to eny address in the United States or Canadas.
