Every man who has much to do with stock knows that every animal used for riding or driving has its own gait, and if pushed out of that gait will break down sooner. Il is the same way with the in ternal machinery of the human body. It is fitted for going at a certain rate ol speed. If you quicken the circ'ilatior. by stimulants, the organs will wear ou' sooner. There is no avoiding it. Dis ease may make the circulation so sluggish that a stimulant is beneficial, but a healthy man who habitually stimulates s always it jured by it. He may not feet it for some time; but when the decay.of physical powers would naturally coir, mence, his strength will fail far more lapidly than if be had let the machinery of life take its own gait.

On all sides of us we see the shoals and quick-sands on which our friends drifted and were wrecked: wrecks of manhood and womanhood, of tender ycarsand hoary age, drifting away; wrecks of tender ineffable loves, whose shallops were wrecked an shore, under the very glow of the isles of hope, drift ing away; mor»L>vrec!ca, physical wrecks, financial wrecks, kgaj>wrecks, literary wrecks, drifiirif jway. In tise- bygone vears they launched out frrAi rural homo, quiet village, chgpujJ’cWp, and classic shade, as proukjiA-Mwr^ft2'(u l | ot prom sc. as a neauQuilt s'eamer for her trial rip. J/iy-oari. in each face, hope hung her cx>J:iyl«pn each brow, love danced t^tTclilTe, music, with softest ca- Jence, warmed each soul. They sailed ' ff eo-se'ear smo th watets. but had uaicely passed out of sight till the winds ro-e, the. chuds blackened, (he stoim* •athered. the sun of hope rrew dim. th* ■tars (>f promise withdrew their shining, he heavens receded farther and fartl.ei and they are drifting away. Becalmm under a hot and copper sky, sails and pennons idly flipping the masts, scam opening under the fierce heat, and side •reaking to the s'uggish swell of the se ■. 'bey arc drifting away. Wrecks as ful of contagion as a plagueship, as full of horrors ns an arctic craft with famished and fnz n crow, drifting away. Some ill-omened albatross scattered disease and death from her wings. ‘■Ami Bllniy things did crawl with leg-’ Upon the slimy sea." No beacon light on shore, no bitoybell above the waves, n > fire in engine, no man at the wheel, no commander in fore castle, no seaman in the rigging,’ all drifting away. •‘That fatal, that perfidious bark Was built in an eclipse. And rigged with curses dark." Intemperance was in stem an 1 stern, in sails, masts, and rigging, and now, upon a shoreless uceanjof troubles an I confu sion, without a guide, without a compass, without a chart, drilling away. Wrecks that once sailed so buo/nnlly out of port for some Utopia of promise, sotne tropic of ambition, some beauteous isle of love, for the cargo that promised fame, honor, happiness, only repeated the st rv of the -ibyl, and whisky was the Roman king, drifting away. Wrecks whose characters, fortunes, and hopes, have gone overboard in a storm of dissipation, who, having en gulfed honor, pare purpose, and high resolve, in the dismal sunless sea of in temperance, lie on beams’end, drifting away. Wrecks going down in ti e fiery, flaming, syren voiced sea of Intemper nice, going asunder with tbe eternal roar of the breakers, and giving to the mock ing waves only the wailing* of paron', the agon.zing cry of wife and children, the wild lamentations of loving maidens, drifting away. Those ships never return. You may go down to the shore under the fierce light of day, or the solemn stillness of the stars, and lovingly look over the great blue expanse; but you see no sign of ship, no glistening of sails; you hear no voice of happy crew.no rattling of an chor ch-til*-: all imve drifted away, and lie entombed 'ne*th the high crested, ever surging waves ot Intemperance, ‘‘Oh, could spirit* bear shut spirits tell, Wb»t a holiday iu hell.” When v. e see our friends drilling away, let us whisper a note of warning, and uoint them to the wreck-strewn shore. When we see a fellow mortal drifting away from home, friends, and honor, mock him not, but whisper a kind word, and remember that somebody loves him. Remember that some tun ler heart will swell with anguish at his fall; some lov ing mother wiil weep oe’r her onoesinless boy; some devoted wife will grieve as she views her fallen prince; some loved ami loving woman will drop a tear, and whis per a silent piuyt r for her idol over thrown; or perhaps seme loving sister, "Who lie* with a tress of his balr. Dark ou her bi cast—where the death shadows are’’ is pleading hi* causa within the etuttur pled wall* of the dental courts. Mock him not, but Help him to mount above the voiceless waves cf death and hell. —“Tar Hekl,” in Acicorth Neves «fc Parmer “Oh, I can’t sing.” pleaded a young man, who femininely wanted to be coaxed before gratifying his auditors. ‘•Yes, you can. I’ve heart! two or three of your friends say so,” persist e<l a pretty girl to whom be bail been talking. “No I can’t,’’ he repeated, getting up tog<> to the piano. “Yes vou can. Go on now and sing, pleas'?,” she urged. []e said be couldn’t two or three times more, but he went ahead, and for half an hour his voice was the most prominent thing in tlie room. Then be came back smiling to the young lady. “Ah,’’ she said, wearily, “thanks. You were quite right about the singing.’’ His face clouded, and he never spoke again to the girl who agreed with him.— Merchant Traveler. That Dirty Dandruff. Dandruff is dirty and disagreeable in everyway. It soils the clothing contin ually, and is accompanied by a hardly less annoying sensation of itching- The scalp is diseased. There is nothing in tbe world so thoroughly adipted to this trouble as Parker's Hair Balsam, li cleanses and heals the scalp, stops the falling hair and restores its original soft ness, gloss and color. Is not oily, high! ■ perlumed, an elegant dressing. X cry economical, as only a small occasional application keeps the hair in perfect ; condition. THAT NICE GIRL. Very particular people may object to the adjective, but it expresses ex actly what is needed, and as no other word can. Although she is bright, nobody has to excuse a bit of sarcasm by saying, ‘she is so clever.’ Although she is well dressed, her costtime is never so conspicuous that she is invited out because she will dis play the latest fashions. Although she rides, drives, and plays outdoor games, she does not talk so continuously of these accom plishments, as to have it said that ‘Miss Bertie is just like one of us you know.’ Although she is a fine musician, she has not become so excessively cultur "<l that if a person asks for a funny piece she declines to play, on tbe ground that it is not classical. Although she likes to walk, and enjoys a sea bath, she does not nuke herself a wnlki ig pamphlet of'How to be healthy.’ Although she rends a good tletil, an evening spent in her company does not mean that you are so fed with criticisms upon authors that you won der if she ever read a funny poem called ‘The Temple of Bosh,’ anil re. aliges what an ardent worshipper she is therein. Nq, the nice girl does none of these iliing*. She may or may not be ac e.omplbhed in nvmi , literature, frock making, or tak’ng care of herself; l.ut she <lo< s thoroughly understand the respect and consideration due to other peoples’weal ne-.-es, opinions, or pres ence. She has learned that her con duct in lif? is not the most interest ing thing in the world to them, and that a craving for the comfort of one’s neighbor usually results in a lovirg memory well worth having, and she need n t be an insane soul, without likes and dislikes; but she must per force be careful to whom she expresses them. A woman without an cpinion of her own compares with potatoes without salt. The nice girl has faults, else she would not be liked, ns we seldom care for entirely irreproachable souls: they make the contrasts too violent, and so wound our self-pride. The nice girl is like other girls in most respects, but she possesses tact in a special degree, has cultivated it, and is most decidedly, looked at only from a worldly standpoint, the gainer by it. , It is not bard to be a nice girl if yon start out with a willingness, nnt neces sarily to make a Uriah Heep of j our self, but to make self secondary and the thanks of others your richest re ward.

Metal Polson. 1 atu a coppersmith by trade, and du ring a series of years my anus (being bare when at work) have absorbed a wonder ful amount of metal poison. Having a a scrofulous tendency from my youth, the small particles of copper nnd brass would get into the sore*, and bythis process the poiam was conveyed into my bleod till my whole system became infected. I wa treated w ith tbe old remedies of mercury and iodide of pota.-siutn.

Others dis couraged me, but I secured a fe v bottles, and have now taken two dozen buttles. The fi st effect of the medicine was to bring the poison to the surface, an l 1 broke out all over io running sores. They soon disappeared, and my skin cleared off. My knees, which had become twice their natural size, bare resumed their ; usual size, and are snpple as of yore My aims and hands are all right again, nnd I can use them without pain. The entire disease has left all parrs el the body save two ulcers on my wrists, which are heal ing rapidly. lam weak from long con finement but I have the use of all my limbs.
