It is exces- sively restless. It is disturbed by vague ambition, by thirst tor excite- ment, by irrepressible desires to touch life in manifold ways. If you, mothers, rear your sons so that their homes are associated with the repression of natur- al instincts, you will be sure to_ throw them in the that in some measure can supply the need of their hearts. They will not go to the public houses at first for love of liquor—very few people like the taste of liquor; they go for the animated and hilarions com- panionship they find there, which they discover does so much to repress the disturbing restlessness in their breasts. See to it, that their homes compete with public places in attractiveness. Open your blinds by day and light bright fires at night. Illuminate your rooms. Hang pictures upon the wall Put books and newspapers upon your tables. Have music and entertaining games. Banish demons of dulloess and apathy that have so long ruled in your household, and bring in mirth and good cheer. Invent occupations for your sons, Stimulate their ambitions in worthy directions, While you make home their delight fill them with higher purposes than mere pleasure. Whether they shall pass boyhoed and enter upon manhood with refined tastes and noble ambitions depends on you. Believe it possible that with exertions and right means,a mother may have more control over the destiny of her boys than any other influence whatever. 2s. -eee——- - A Wife's Admiration. Sir Arthur Wellesley, before he became the Duke of Wellington, married a charming Irish lady, Catherine Paken- ham. They had been long attached to each other, and the marriage took place just afterhe had returned from his brilliant career in India. During bis absence of eleven years she never once wrote to him, yet her affection was constant. When Lady Wellesley was presented to Queen Charlotte, her Majesty said “I am happy tosee at my court so bright an example of constancy. But did you really never write one letter to Sir Arthur during his leng absence?” ‘‘No, never, your Majesty.” “And did you never think of him?” “Yes, your Majesty very often” She wus proud of her husband's reputation, but prouder of the fact that he merited it. Just before her déath,she was visited by friends who found her lying on a sofa in a room filled with the magaificent presents of cities,kingdoms and sovereigns. When the visitors gazed upon them with admiration, the Duchess exclaimed, with a weak voice: ‘“‘All tributes to merit! There’s the value | All pure, no corruption suspected even!

A MARVELOUS STorRY TOLD IN TWO LETTERS. * 26 Cedar St., New FROM THE SON; “yoncoc Soe “Gentlemen: My father resides at Glover, Vt. He has been a great sufferer from Scrof- ula, and the inclosed letter will tell you what a marvelous effect Ayer's Sarsaparilla has had in his case. 1 think his blood must have contained the humer for at lezst ten years ; but it did not suow, except in the form of ascrofulous sore on the wrist, until about five years ago, From a few spots which ap- peared at that time, it gradually spread so ag to cover his entire body. I assure you he was terribly afflicted, and an object of pity, when he began using your medicine. Now, there are few men of his age who enjoy as good health as he has. 1 could easily name fifty persons who would testify to the facts in his case. Yours truly, W. M. PHILLIPS,” “Tt is botha FROM THE FATHER: jicscice cus a duty for me to state to you the benefit I have derived from the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla. Six months ago 1 was completely covered with a terrible humor and scrofulous sores, The humor caused an incessant and intolerable itching, and the skin cracked so as to cause the blood to flow in many places whenever I moved, My a:>r':os were great, and my life a burden. J common viv woe cf tis Ss RSAPARILLA in April last, and have used it regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at once. The sores have all healed, and I feel perfectly well in every respect — being now able to do a good day’s work, although 73 years of age. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, AYER’S SARSAPARILLA. Glover, Vt., Oct. 21, 1862. Yours gratefully, HIRAM PHILLIPS.” AYER’s SARSAPARILLA cures Scrofula and all Scrofulous Compietnts, Erysip- elas, Eczema, Ringworm, Blotches, Sores, Boils, Tumors, and Fi upticns of the Skin. It clears the blood of all impu- rities, aids digestion, stimulates the action of the bowels, and thus restores vitality and strengthens the whole system. PREPARED BY Dr. J.C.
