Ipje FOOD FOB THOUGHT. Improvement in the daughters will best aid in the reformation of the sons of this age. Religion is reproached with not being progressive; it makes amends by being imperishable. What is defeat? Nothing but edu cation. Nothing but the first step to something better. Morocco, peopled by the finest Mos lem race in the world, is entirely closed to Christianity. There are many men whose tongues might govern multitudes, if they could govern their tongues. The fountain of beauty is the heart, and every generous thought illustrates the wall of your chamber. It is not enou h to have reason; it is spoiled, it is dishonored, by sustaining a brusque and haughty manner. What stubbing, plowing, digging and harrowing is to land; thinking, re flecting and examining is to the mind. Don’t live for yourself, and do not be afraid of diminishing your own hap piness by promoting that of others. Charity is a virtue of the heart—not of the hands, and gifts and alms are the expressions, not the essence of this virtue. Men are sometimes accused of pride merely because their accusers would be proud themselves if they were in their places. Some people are nothing but money, pride and pleasure. These three things engross their thoughts, and take up their whole soul. By rousing himself, by earnestness, by restraint and control, the wise man may make for himself an island which no flood can overwhelm. Many are ambitious of saying grand things—that is, of being grandiloquent. Eloquence is speaking out, a quality few esteem and fewer aim at. One ought to loye society if he wish es to enjoy solitude. It is a social na ture that solitude works upon with the most various power. If one is misan thropic, and betakes himself to loneli ness that he may get away from hate ful things, solitude is silent emptiness to him. A slender acquaintance with the world must convince every man that actions, not words, are the true criteri on of the attachment of friends. Heartfelt sympathy without a tangi ble accompaniment will never alleviate tho pangs of hunger nor clothe a shiver ing wretch with comfortable clothing. What men want is not talent—it is purpose; in other words, not the power to achieve, hut the will to labor. La bor judiciously and continuously ap plied becomes genius. “A Blessing in Disguise.” 484 Adelpiii St., Brooklyn, N. Y.,1 March 20th, 1881. f No family should be without Allcock’s Porous Plasters; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy far reaching and lasting. For years past I have seen and known them to cure and relieve the most ob stinate and distressing cases of rheuma tism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neu ralgia, lumbago, inflammation of the lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. In my own case they have afforded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy for all kinds of aches and pains. They are a blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from nervous exhaustion and other ailments. Asa strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weaknesses, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general satisfaction. Used in connection with Brandreth’s universal life-giving and life-healing Pills, no one need despair of a speedy restoration to good sound health. Mrs. E. Tompkis*. He is most to blame who breaks the law—no matter under what provoca tion be acts. Monroe, Mich., Sept. 25, 1875. Sirs —l have been taking Hop Bitters for inflammation of kidneys and bladder. It has done for me what fonr doctors failed to do. The effect of Hop Bitters seemed like magic to me. W. L. Carter. Fortune lost, nothing lost; courage lost, much lost; honor lost, more lost; soul lost, all lost. Ayer’s Ague Cure acts direct ly on the liver and biliary apparatus, and drives out the malarial poison which induces liver complaints and bil ious disorders. Warranted to cure, or money refunded. It is easier to do something some one else is at, than to perform your own allotted task. On Thirty Day’s Trial. The Voltaic Belt Cos., Marshall, Mich, will send Dr. Dye’s Celebrated Electro, Voltaic Belts and Electric Appliances on trial for thirty days to men (young or old) who are afflicted with Nervous Debility.

ELECTRICITY. —Of all the known Electro-Galvanic Appliances of the present day it is now conceded by the Medical Fra ternity and Electricians generally, that the American Galvanic Co.’sHowardShields are the best, possessing intrinsic Electrical merits, as one shield or appliance can be fit ted to any part of the body, which is not true of any other. See adve tisement in another column of this paper.— -Electric Gazette. HALL’S Vegetable Sicilian HAIR RENEWER was tlio first preparation perfectly adapted to cure diseases of the scalp, and the first suc cessful restorer of faded or gray hair to it* natural color, growth, and youthful beauty. It has had many imitators, but none have so fully met all the requirements needful for the proper treatment of the hair and scalp. Hall’s Hair Renewer has steadily grown in favor, and spread its famo and usefulness to every quarter of the globe. Its unparal leled success can bo attributed to but one cause: the entire fulfilment of its pivmises. Tho proprietors have often been surprised at the receipt of orders from remote coun tries, whero they had never made an effort for its introduction. The use for a short time of Hall’s Hair Renewer wonderfully improves the per sonal appearauco. It cleanses the scalp from all impurities, cures all humors, fever, and dryness, and thus prevents baldness. It stimulates tho weakened glands, and enables them to push forward anew and vigorous growth. The effects of this article are not transient, like those of alcoholic prepara tions, but remain a long time, which makes its use a matter of economy. BUCKINGHAM’S DYE FOR THE WHISKERS Will change the heard to a natural brown, or black, ns desired. It produces a permanent color that will not wash away.
