MY CHILDREN.
BY MBS. AUGUSTA EVANS INGE.
Life is opening real before you;
Shrink not from the coming strife,
Though reverses may be many,
Overcome them—such is life.
Look ! the field is wide before you—
Meet the world's confronting band.
And with Faith and Truth for armor,
Enter bravely—take yom stand.
Fortune is a fickle goddess—
She may come to you unsought,
After years of ease and pleasure,
Turn and view the misery wrought.
Or for waiting and for watching.
From her wheel no prize may fall—
To a life of idle hoping,
She may never come at all.
Fame and pleasure are delusive—
Luring with betraying smile—
Leading through enchanted regions,
All your youth-time to beguile.
But in duty, active duty,
With the hand, the head and heart—
Keeping pace with the world's workers,
In its great and busy mart.
This alone can give contentment.
And your hearts with joy shall thrill,
That in doing your whole duty.
You have wrought vonr Master’s will.
Jngehkim, Cokinth, Miss., July, 1876.

And should any case prove unusually obstinate,
it should be sent from the city to the country,
which will generally be followed by a speedy
improvement in all the symptoms. This change
is not so urgently demanded here in Atlanta as
in New York, and other cities less favorably sit

much facilitated by sending children to the

“On the floors, propped up in chairs, in bed,

of these mothers have been reared in poverty
and filth themselves, hardly knowing what it is
to take a single sniff of pure, health-giving air;
and, therefore, knowing nothing of its virtues,
either practically or theoretically. How can
they be expected to appreciate properly this
great restorative when they know nothing of it
from experience, and when they do not even
know the meaning of such words as hygiene,
physiology, chemistry, or any other term con
nected with the science of health ? But this is
not the only difficulty. There is not only an
absepce of all knowledge of the true science of
dorsing what others say, aspire to give the pub

NO CHILDREN.
A home without children is like a heaven with
out angels. We often hear landlords prefer some
of their tenants because they have no children.
Advertisements, and houses to let or board, are
qualified by the words, “without children.” Chil
dren are an incumbrance, a nuisance, and are not
wanted. Supposing they change the order, and
say. “Select circles and classes of society, and
single persons and childless parents,” houses
and homes where no little lips prattle, no little

Morphine and

Discovered and manufactured by W. T.

dotes. The great demand for it in the last twelve months
without much advertising, and its efficiency, as testified
to by hundreds of patients in all sections of the Union,
verify the statement. Dr. Park has not only ferreted out
the contents, combinations and effects of ahe Collins'
Opium Antidote, but has by his own knowledge, skill and
experience, discovered and jnodveed a permanent cure for
the opium habit and its causes, superior to any other be
