Harry afflicted where permanent relief of tLeir
suferings may be obtained, feels 1t his duty
to thus publicly express his most sincere grat.
itude to Dr.. L. J. C1aPkay, for the permanent
recovery OF his health. Borne down by the
distressing symptoms incident to the vicious
practices OF uncomfortable passion in youth.
depressed in body and mind, unable to perform
even the moettrihing duty imposed by the daily
avocations Of life, sought the advice of many
physi- clans, who at first regarded nv disease
as OF trlhlng Importance; but, alas, after few
weeks, and In several instances, months. of
taeIr treatment, l found to my unutterable
horror, that instead of relief, my symptoms be-
came more al armiDg in their torture, and be-
ing told by one that my disease being principally
connned to the brain, medicine would be Of lit.
tie consequence, despaired Of ever regaining
my health, strength and energy and - . last
resort called on DR.. Czapkay, who after ex-
aiming my case prescribed some medicine,
pain and dizziness In my head. Encouraged by
the result, resolved to place myself under
his care, and by strict obedience to- all his di.
rections and advice my head became clear, nv
ideas collected, the constant pain In my back
and groins, the weakness Of my pimbs, the nen,-
youS reaction Of my whole body on the slightsg
alarm or excitement, the misanthropy and e,H
fmbcdIngs, the self-distrust and want Of cons
fdence In Others, the incapability to study, and
want Of resolution, the frightful, exciting,
and at times, pleasurable dreams by nigh fel.
lowed BY involuntary discharges, have an dis
appeared, and,in fact. In two months sfter
having consulted the Doctor. feltas II ipSpir.
ed By new lifs-that life which, short time
ago, Contemplated to end With my own hand.
With view to guard the unfortunate from
falling into the snareS Of incompetent quacks,
deem it ny duty to offer thistestimouy to
the merit! and skill Of Dr.. CIapkay.

Fast.

What a mighty word IT'S the motto
of the present age. IT'S the watchword
of the world. How inventions follow
fast on each others heels and the his
tory of humanity, as well as Of horses, IS
all written in that one wOrd-faSt.
Why, nowadays, fast and fashion
land fools, l might say, to make the allt-
Grafton completely, are all members OF the
same family; and everybody seems to think
that fast is only another name for fash
ionable, and that fashionable necessarily
implies fast. If people go travelling, they
are sure to patronize the conveyance that
has the reputation of being fast. Ii they
wish to shine in society, their dress and
manner are only limitations of some fast
acquaintance. If their income suddenly
becomes greater than their necessary ex-
pcnseS,
"Thev scatter the chink,
And make every one think
they have discovered an inexhaustible
mine of gold. Late breakfasts and later
suppers, gavety and dissipation, and a
constant endeavor to turn night into day
(ah what if the last great day should be
turned into night y become the regular
order of life. Everything is done on the
high-prcs,rc principle, and the conse-
ouencc is, some terrible explosion. With
lightning velocity, they hurry themselves
TO the gates of death, leaving those that
walk far in the rear, too proud to stop,
vet knowing that the end is nigh. At
last, the water becomes low they have
forgotten the Safety-valve; there is ter
rife explosion, and cloud of steam
floats into the air. That is all. Is it pos
sible: Yes; all this propelling power
all this noise, and glitter, and glory, is
only a thin cloud fyapor!
There was a beautiful boat on the river.
She walked the waters like thing OF
life" and the newspapers gave her the
best possible compliment, by calling her
the fastest boat on the river.
But, one day. another boat tried to
carry off her laurels, and her owners
swore he would run her to Hudson or
- in four hours He did. For, Just
as she was turning a bend in the river, her
boiler burst, and sent her fast owner t o
eternity rather faster than was desired.
There was a downtown merchant who
failed the other day. How every one
wondered! He had lived in the grandeSt
style. lie had supported his horses and
carriage, and his creditors had supported
him.
They say he was once poor boy; but,
in n moment of prosperity, he forgot the
golden maxim that little boats should
keep near shore - and hung out too much
sail. And now, when he meets his for
mer friends, who were once so kind and
cordial. they haven't got on their specs;
in other words, they "can't see him y
(Ah why do we make so many efforts
to please the world, when the world

calm that always precedes storm.

as the instrument of their redemption

and so they persisted; their light went
out in darkness, and they were not re-

Two young men from the Gland of
Paddles" one of whom possessed a toler-
,ble education, were one day speaking
about bad writing. Teddy thought he
could read any writing that he ever saw.
Faith, an I'll bet you horse that can
write so that YOU can't read it, said Pat.
Teddy gave him pen and paper, and
told him to write. "An' what shall l
write" asked Patrick. "Oh, anything
We wish" answered Teddy. "Shure an
wish We, d tell me what to write" in
sisted Pat, scratching his head. "WeL,
says Teddy, seeing old Tiger walk before
the door. "s'posin' We write. The dog is
walkin' in the yard an III give you
horse if I can't read it." "Done! But
l don't know whether it's meself that can
spell it right at all, at all and Teddy
spelled word after word while Pat wrote.
When done, Pat, with triumphant -four
ish, handed him the paper, saying, "Now,
if you read that the pony's yours, for
shure." Teddy took the paper and read
it right of, much to the surprise of Pat
rick, who acknowledged that the bet was
fairly won.
