Ee CCC ag Seta aay advisel everybody to see Melrose by MOSAICS. Lori Chaneellor Supdcon, veho wrote 2 celebrated ‘ Treatise on V/ills,’ died without making his own; Seott, who moonlight, never saw it by moonlight himese. f. Leese is one of the most familiar of articles, but’ not so ea-y to describe. The best definition Dr. Johnson could ceive of it was: ‘anything reticulated or dec seated at certain distances, with | interstices betwoen the intersections.’ | Those poor husbands! <A gentleman a draper’s sh yp had the misfortune to tread on a lady’s skirt. She turned face flushed with anger, but seeing that the gentleman was a stranger she smiled complacently, say- ing: I beg pardon, sir; I was going to be inadreadful passion. I thought it was my husband.’ revElrye her Like most garments of fabrics, every- thine has a right side and a wrong side. Yott can take any joy and by turning it round find troubles on the cther side; or you may take the greatest trouble, and by turning it round find joys on the other side. The gloomiest motintain never cast a shadow on both sides at once, ner does the greatest of life’s calamities. An observant husband says that a lookinz-glass affords a woman 4 mar- vellous amount of comfort and gratifi- cation. He states that his wife thinks just as much of confulting her glass when she ties on her apron as when she ties on her bonnet. He says that when there is a knock at the door he goes there at once, but his wife, on the contrary, ejaculates, ‘ Merey, Joseph, who's that ?’ and dashes direetly for the looking-glass. Wishing to keep a souvenir of his visit, an excursionist to Coney Island, who had never seen the sea _ before, thought. he would.take home with him a bottle of seaewater. . While he was in the act of filling the bottle an old salt who had been watching him, asked, ‘What are youup to? ‘Why filling my bottle with salt water, as you see.’ ‘Well, you must only half fill it.’ ‘Why ? * Cos, if you don’t, when the tile rises, it’ll be sure to overflow.’ Perhaps some of our readers are not familiar with the following puzzle: A young man asked an eld man for his daughter in marriage. ‘The answer was, ‘Go into the orchard and bring in a par- cel of apples. Give me one-half of the whole number, and the mother one-half of the balance and half an apple over,and the daughter one-half of the remainder and half an apple over, and havé one lett for yourself, without cutting the apple; and then, if she is willing, you can have her.’ He solved the question, and how many did he bring ? Fourteen, as you can easily prove. The old man was to have one-half ot the apples, which would be seven. The mother was to have one-half of the balance, which would be three and a half, and half an apple over, which would make four apples tor her. There would be three apples left, of which the daughte: was to have one half and half an apple over, which would give her two, and leave the lover his one, ‘ without cutting the apple.’ Boschees German Syrup ean now be purchased right at home, it is the most snecessful preparations ever introduced to our people. Itworks like a charm in all cases of Consumption, Pnuemonia, Hemorr- hayes, Asthma, severe Coughs, Croup and all other Throat and Lung Diseases. No person has ever used this medicine without getting immediate relief, yet there are a great many poor, su‘lering, skeptical persons going about our strects with a suspicious cough, and the voice of consumption coming from their lungs, that will not try it. If you die, it is your own fault, as you can go to your druggist and get a sansple bottle and tryit; three doses will relieve : Regular size only 75 cts. 73,620 MORE SINSER SEWING MACHINES SOLD IN 1878 THAN IN ANY PREVIOUS YEAR, ly case, ee mm In 1870 we sold 127,833 Sewing Machines. e ISTS és a 356,432 se se 2 ; so ATS rp aN Charlet,ctown Church Directory Sr, Pauy’s (Cuvrem or Ene@tanp), —Queen Square— Morning and Evening Service every Sunday at li a. m. and7 p. m.

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Remedy. T. J. B. Harprxe, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:— Dear Str—It is now two years since your ‘Constitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced to me. I have waited this . ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy eflects seemed to me tv be ‘‘too good to true.” I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading ii#your Circular i saw my case described in many par ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit upin the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before 1 had used a quarter of the conients of one bottle I found decided re- lief, anc when-I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailinent, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head. A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, wpedieel. with leave to make what use of it yon may see proper Yours truly, W.
