A -meae ee A A a ThA Gift of God: —_- «A strange and strong défusion it is wherewith the man of sin hath be- witched the world; a forcible spirit of error it must needs be, whic bath brought men to such a senseless and unreasonable persuasion as this is, not only that men clothed with mortality and sin, as we ourselves are, can do God so much service, as shall beable to make a full and perfect satisfaction be- fore the tribunal seat of God for their own sins, yea, a great deal more than is sufficient for themselves; but also that a man at the hands of a bishop or a pope, for such or such a price, may buy the overplus of other men’s merits, vchase the fruits of other men’s abors, and build his soul by another man’s faith. Is not this man drowned in the gall of bitterness? Is his heart right in the sight of God? Can he have any part or fellowsbip with Peter, and with the successors of Peter, who thinketh so vilely of building the preci- ous temples of the Holy Cross ? Let his money perish with him, and he with it, because he jadgeth that the gift of God may be sold for money.” 2“ Gems of Thought. There would be fewer young fools if there were more wise elders. Low as the grave is, only Faith ean climb high enough to see beyond it. None but Heaven and the eer know what the poor do for each other. ‘Happiness is a perfume that one cannot shed over another without a few drops falling on one’s self.” True politeness consists in being easy one’s self, and making everyone about one a$ easy as one Can. Two things are embarrassing; to be silent when we ought to speak, and to speak when we ought to be silent. They who respect themselves will be honored, but they who do not care about their character will be utterly despised. As jong as love prevails in a house, space of the breadth of a sword issatis- factory. As soon as it disappears, sixty handbreadths are not sufficient. Ontiy those who have had experience in the deepest secrets of life under- atand that our best bliss comes from the performance of our most odious duties. Pythagoras gave this excellent pre- cept :-—Choose always the way that seems the best, however rough it may be. Custom will make it easy and ayreeable. If thou wilt succeed in thy race for the goal, in thy contest for the crown, pray much, deny thyself, and thou wilt find in God eternal life, thy prize and thy crown. Wit loses its respect with the good when seen in company with malice; and to smile at the jest which plants a thorn in another’s breast, is to become a principal in the mischief. Look not mournfully into the past. [t comes not back again. Wisely im- prove the present. It is thine, Go forth to meet the shadowy future, with- out fear, and with a manly heart. * There is no absurdity in approving as well as condemning the same indi- dividual ; for as few people are always in the right, so, on the other hand, it is “improbable they should be always in the wrong. Society is generally supposed to give the last polish to educate; but, perhaps there is nothing like a little adversity to bring about that healthiness of feel- ing which alone fits a man for society. It is they who glorify God who shall enjoy Him; they who deny themselves, who shall not be denied; they who labor on earth, who shall rest. in heaven; they who bear the cross, who shall wear the crown; they who seek to bless others, who shall be blessed. It is not darkness the Christian goes to at death, for God is light. It is not loneliness, for Christ is with him. It} is not an unknown country for Jesus is there; and there the vast ComPEDY of the just made perfect, who shall be one in fellowship and blessedness of heaven forever. The true grace of silence ever springs irom « renewed heart and a disciplined mind. ‘fo cultivate it effectually we must forget ourselves ; forget our pride and sensitiveness; forget as soon as spoken the wounding or the cruel words we cannot always escape, and re- member only the example our Lord has left us, of patient, uneomplaining si- lence in the very presence of the fiercest calamity and rage. eiciendpalletlaiapecan il A Burlington man has invented a method of bottling up sunshine in the summer, which he proposes to sell at the price of a dollar a quart in the winter, Clothes Cleaning Depot, ae Sena ieensae=aggenn —— a ANTED! 1,000 MEN to bring their Cloth and Trimmings to Joseph A.

Ch’town, Feb. 28—y pat lm 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 been caused by outward application as the present. It is an anilepebed fact that over half of the entire —_ on 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 any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do mBre real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. Al) other plasters are slow of action, and uire 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 & medical agent for an outward application ; but it is qnly of very recent date that its advan- es in @ porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porxocs PLastsrs, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, — in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters or liniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s Capsicum POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and uick in its action, you can 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 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, they will be mailed, post paid, te any address in the United States or Canadas.
