CCItRESFQOTEN’CE. sstsyion. Mu. Eli i’tok: —Superstition is a strange •.•oncer;!: Webster says that Friday is just as lucky a day as any other. But .'pffiQ folks shudder to begin a piece of work on Friday, It is bad luck they say. Some say if a rabbit cross your path, change your course orpull a thread of your clothes or something ill or unpleas¬ ant will happen to you. When one cross¬ es our path and we fail to kill him, somc thiug unpleasant has already happened to us. A few clays ago a man walking along the toad behind us. picked up au old rusty horse shoe and ‘'Yes,” said he, “I have been needing' this a good while.” •id lie was going to nail it up over his or fo keep the witches away, that ho L 1 : pt one nailed up over his door for five years and bad good health all the time, but. since he has been here has been sick i! the time. We thought that health and sickness was the result of the condi¬ tion of the system. Is ignorance the pa¬ rent of superstition? It seems to us that such is the case. Wo attended tho service of Rev. Dr. Baynes last Sunday. In time of liis dis¬ course he paused to call some young folks in the assembly to halt talking and laugh ;>i., in time of service: and after service 1:0 S3A l to thorn that ho was engaged to preach at that place for a year and lie wanted all of the people old and young to attend as much as possible and he want¬ ed t he young people to behave themselves. Thgn be said, “I must be understood, I win be understood, young people, if after this admonition you continue to behave as bad as you have today, I will reprove you for it mildly a few limes, and if it does no good, and comes to that extroam ity, I will leave you to tho mercy of the powers that be.” Wc might write a lengthy paper on Behavior at church, but refrain at presant, ■Simon Cord wood.

Gentlemen—I have suffered for years with a kind of a Tetter, or breaking out all over my body, and at times these small pimples would terminate in boils. While traveling iu the South last year I had occasion to try a bottle of I’. P.

Ben Franklin once made the .-.-.atment, “Schools teach us the rudiments of lam guage, but books teach us how h> think; therefore, no man is truly edue; tu 1 un oss he is a reader of books.” B n right, but ho lived in an age, when hooka were so scarce, comparatively speaking, that but little of the pernicious hi liter. 1 turn was tolerated. But in there day s it is different. Your boys thirst for knowledge of the world, and if yon give them some wholesome reading to slake that thirst, they will get hold of cheap, sensational stories that ’.V! 11 son their minds and do them terrible in¬ jury. There is such a vast amount of this trashy staff being poured into the market at tho present time, that it is a relief to pick up a new book that is at once thrill¬ ing, romantic, wholesome, and true. Such a work is “Frootprints of tic 1 1 rj World’s History,” the latest and great*, si work of the two celebrated histor::' ;•>, John Clark Rid path- and Wm. S. Bryan, These distinguished gentlemen, havi won their laurels by independent wi ings, have, co-opcrated on this work, and produced a gem “of the purest ray 30 rene.” It, is not a dry, unin j.Bx j-i statement of the plain facts, but rather each of the most important events of his¬ tory has been taken up and described by a master of language, who holds the read¬ er en traced as ho wends Iiis way along tho path of history, following carefully in the footprints of progress. We are delighted with this superb vol¬ ume. Perfect' in thought, superb in style, and magnificent in execution. The binding are sumptuous, as are also the many illustrations and colored plates. The publishers have rightly concluded that such a gem should have a rich Bet ting. It is a valuable addition to literature. It is a book for the old as well as the young; the married as well as the single; the gay as well as the grave. Everybody will read it with equal eagerness and profit. It is sold only through agents, and the Publisher’s advertisement ap¬ pears m another column. Corns.

Being tho most ancient, it is tho most general of all diseases or affections, for very few persons are entirely free from it.
