He who exhibited such matchless skill in the organization of material bodies, and such exquisite taste in their formation, has added that ethereal beauty which enhances their perma- nent qualities, and presents them to us in the ever-varying character of the spectrum. Without this the foliage of vegetable life might have filled the eye and fostered the fruit which it veils, but the youthful green of its spring would have been blended with the d y- ing yellow of its autumn. If the ob- jects of this material world had been “Huminated with white light, all the particles of which possess the same de- gree of frangibility, and are equally acted upon by the bodies on which they fall, all the features of the human coun- tenance, would have exhibited no other | variety than that which they posses In a pencil sketch, or a China-ink drawing. The rain-bow itself would have dwindled into a narrow arch of white light, the stars would have shone through a grey sky, and the mantle of a wintry twilight would have replaced the golden vesture of the rising sun. ————_—_- 4p — Brighten Your Homes. Home should not only be filled with love and affection, but should be beau- tified in every way that taste and means will allow. Air, light and sunshine should be first among the sanitary con- ditions. Pictures, birds and flowers should each have a welcome place; every room should have its attractions in little adornments that give the cozy home-look we all love. They unconsci- ously cultivate in the child a love for the beautiful and the refinements of life. Books, too, should be household idols, and their beauty and value gradu- ally sought. If the boy has a taste for reading or literature, furnish bim a good selection of authors, not beyond his comprehension, lest vou clog instead of advance his ideas. If he display a taste or talent for music, give it al! the auxiliaries your means can secure. Whatever the predominant trait of the budding mind, give it all the fascinating aid that suggests itself to you. Let your boys feel that you are in sym- pathy with their pursuits and thus stimulate a noble ambition that will make them desirous to excel for the sake of the loved ones at home, and whose praise will be worth more than all others, for they feel it is sincere. Thus this freedom, congeniality and aweet influence will “ keep the boys at home,” and it will indeed be to them the ‘dearest spot on carth,” the love of which the fret and turmoil of after life will not be able to erase. other 60 ROLLS, —CONTAINING— 600 SIDES, No. 1&1 No. 2.

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 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 acure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant 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- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful cures effected by Dr, MELVIN’s CAPSICUM PoROUS PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribs 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 you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for R. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for 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 ef its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends. sk your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPsI- cum Porovus 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.
