This test satisfied me that the Rock Rose possessed
specific powers for Scrofuous humors. then tested
it in cases of Cutaneous Eruptons. In Measles
Chicken Pox. Canker. Sore Mouth. Erysipeas. salt
Rheum. Piles. &c. In all these cases with perfect
success. After testing this syrup for more than

able remedy in Cutaneous Eruptions. Erysipelas

opinion of its value for the aboye-namod diseases
remain unchanged. and the same as when wrote Mr.
Myers in Oct. 1850. I do not recommend IL for al
the ills of our suffering humanity but unhcsitat

head drawn side. and unable to labor. advised
him to try the Rock Rose regularly. which he did
for four weeks. The ulcers broke discharged and
healed, and his head resumed its natural position,

The value of the Rock Rose has also been set fourth
by DR.. Tyler. of New Haven in dsserion ayowedly
prepared for that purpose which afterwards at the
reqest of several Of his medical brethren was publish

PADDLE YOUR OWN CANOE Young

1t is, on the whole, better that you

in canoe bought. with the money Of his
parents or his friends. When the vessel
is launched, he must have it padded by
hired hands, while he lolls back, and
perhaps sees nothing but an unsubstan-
tial shadow ,of .hmSslf in the smooth
waters. BY and by the canoe, through
carelessness and presumptious steering,
is dashed among the rapids, and he goes
down. Should he come up again, he
finds that he is abandoned by all, and
that he has made wreck, where he
should have made a fortune.
Young man or woman paddle your
own canoe. Even if you are favored
with parents and friends who can give
you one,!be. sure you earn it by the
wortliness Of your lives, In high pur-
poses, in noble resolves, in generous
deeds, in purity and vrtuous endurance,
and blameless conversation, let your
endeavors to paddle your own canoe be
seen by all. Pull away! If the paddle
breaks while pulling against the rapids
have. another ready. If you have but
one, pull with the stump of the old
Don't relax one effort. One stroke lost
it may be the fatal one. Pull away
your canoe, if you have built it, like
friends Of the right material in you
character, will hold as long as yoursel
will. Pull away, and before long 20,
may find yourself in as fair haven a
the man that paddles his own canoe.

Let the Heart be Beautiful.

So the heart, the heart is beautiful,
care not for the face;
ask not what the form may lack
OF dignity or grace;
Hthe mind be filled with glowing thoughts
And the soul with sympathy,
What matter though the cheek be pale,
Or the eye lack brilliancy.
Though tie cheek, the cheek be beautiful,
II soon may lose its bloom,
And the lustre of the eye be quenched
In the darkness Of the tomb;
But the glory of the mind will live
Though the bloom Of life depart;
And oh the charm can never die
Of true and noble heart
The lips that utter kindly thoughts
Have beauty all their own
For gentle words are sweeter far
Than music's softest tone;
And though the voice be harsh or shrill
That bids the oppressed 60 free,
And soothes the woes of the sorrowing one
That voice is sweet TO me.
