HOME SONG. fltay^tny at home, inv heart, and rest; Home-keeping hearts are happiest, For those that wander they know not where Are full of trouble and full of care, To stay at home is best. Weary and homesick and distressed, They wander east, they wander west, And are baffled and beaten and blown about By the winds of the wilderness of doubt; To stay at home is best. Then stay at home, my heart, and rest; The bird is safest in its nest; O’er all that flutter their wings and fly, A hawk is hovering in the sky ; To stay at Ik me is best. LoXCiFKM.nW. Home Influence. If a mother does not lay aside her courtesy with her company dress, i( a father is refined in speech when the door has closed after the guest, the child will learn to be habitually polite and modest—for good manners are better taught by example than by precept. It is often noticed that girls who have grown up in retirement and simplicity have shown such elegant tact and behavior as to astonish high bred ladies. “Where has the little one learned it ?” exclaims some one of them. “She behaves like a queen; and my daughter, who has been edu cated in Paris—only just look at her! There she stands and turns her hack to that lady! IIow improper!” Tho mother does not reflect that her daughter has been taught man)’ rules of behavior, but retains very few. But “the little one” has imbibed cour tesy with the air of her home. Her mother has taught her few rules of politeness, but has set an example of high bred courtesy. Tho girl has acquired so unconsciously the art of polite behavior that she feels what is and what is not “good form.” In her home she has never known a word, a look, an act that differs from the words, looks, and acts used iu polite society. When she first stepped from her father’s house into an assembly- room where well-bred people had gathered, she simply transferred her self to a larger hut not different sphere.—Ex. A man went into a druggist’s shop and asked for something to cure a headache. The druggist held a bot tle of hartshorn to bis nose, and lie was nearly overpowerd by its pungen cy, As soon as lie recovered he be gan to rail nt tho druggist, and threat ened tc^punch his head. “But didn’t it help your headache ?” asked the apothecary. “Help my headache!’’ gasped the man; “I haven’t any head ache; its my wife that’s got the head ache!” Petition for Charter.

Most women naturally look forward to matrimony as their proper sphere in life, but they should constantly boor in mind that a fair, rosy face, bright eyes, and a healthy, well-developed form, are the best passports to a happy marriage. All those wasting dis orders, weaknesses, and functional irregulari ties peculiar to their sex, destroy beauty and attractiveness and make life miserable. An unfailing specific for these maladies is to be found in Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It is the only medicine for women, 6old by druggists, under a positive guarantee from the manufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money will be re funded. This guarantee lias been printed on the bottle-wrappers, and faithfully carried out for many years. §1.00 per Bottle, or Six Bottles for §5.00. Copyright, less, by world’s Dis. Med. Ass’n. DR.
