heart accomplishcs nothing by n show of
affection. We must give up our idolatry.
We must bo prepared for a true solt-sur-

the earlier, indistinct and somewhat dccciv-

when the heart feels it. Tho voice never
brcathcs it, but the face becomes radiant
with 10y and the eye sparllcs with delight.
Every cord vibratcs with indispensable
pleasure, as its music falls upon the car
long waiting in anxious expectation.
1t has history of its own, written in
tho mingled experiences OF sorrow and Joy
of many u soul. Few thero are who have
no! uttered it in moro or less of its meaning,
through whose soul it has not sent thrill
Of delight, filling it too full for utterancc.

ALL VIRTUES IL LOVE- or Gop.--ln the
early ages OF Christianity, thcro was little
care taken to analyse character. One mo,
montous question was heard all over the
world, Dost thou believe in the Lord with
all thine heart? There was but ono division
among mCn--the great unatoueablo division
between the disciple and tho adversary
The love of Christ was all and all and in
proportion 10 the nearness ol their memory
of his person and teaching, mon UNDERSTOOD
the inhuity of the requirements of the moral
law, and the manner in which alone il
could bc fulfilled. In thoir pure, early and
practical picty, the early Christians saw
that there was ~ mood for codes of moral
ity or systcms of metaphysics, Their vir-
tue comprehenlcd everything cntorcd into
everything; it was too vast and too spiritual
to ho dchuod but there was no nood of
its definition. And therefore, when any OF
the Apostles have occasion to describe OF
ouumoratc any forms of vice or virtue by
name, there is no attempt at systom in their
work. So, also, speaking of virtue, st
Paul gives up all attempt at definition he
leaves tho dcGuition to every mans heart
though he writes So as to mark the overflow
ing uluess of his own vision Of virtue

How To DREss SKINS WIN THE FrR on
There arc many ways cf preparing furs for
use as articles OF dress or ornament.
way tho writer used successfully with
Bluall pcts, rs those of muskrats, mink
cats, rabbits, foxes &c, is as follows =
After stretching and drying, scrape Off all
the bits of flesh and Jumps of fat which
may adhere, then wet thoroughly on the
flesh side, with solution of salt and alum;
fold one-half upon tho other with tho fur
out, and roll up or pack tho skins away FOR
n woek or ten DAYS. After this, the polts
are shaken out, each il spread with layer
OF bran or saw dust, and thuB they arc pilod
ono upon another, or again rolled up to lie
for day or two. Tho moisture is absorb,
ed, and after this, repeated vigorous rub
bings and workings by the hands finish
them. Thick skins need to be treated q sec
ond time with alum and salt, which is best
applied finely pulvcrizcd and rubbed in.
Tall6w or other grease rubbed upon tho

On this principle the Indians tan skins OF
buffalo, bears and smaller animals-for the
nicor operations, using brains. which are on
this account very highly valued Tie fur.
dressers in tho cities used rancid butter
smearing the skins with it, then put them
into tubs, and tread and work them with
TIE feet very thoroughly; after this saw
dust is thrown in among the skins, aud they
are repeatedly worked over in contact with
it, to remove all excess of grease. SubSo-
qnont manipulation, rubbing tho skin side
with chalk or potter's clay, and whipping
and brushing. the fur, finishes them. Al
these operations depend for the success
upon tho thorough rubbing U0d working

NOTHING that is not wholesome, genial and restGr-
atyC in its nature enters into the composition of HO-
sTETrER's STONACn BIrrEEs. This popular prcpa-
ration contains no mineral of any Kind, no deadly
botanical element, no fiery excant but il is com
bnatiun of the extracts of rare balsamc herbs and
plants. with the purest and mildcst Of all diiusive
stimulants.
1t is well to be forcarmcd against disease, and, so
far as the human system can be protected by human
means against maladies engcndered by an unwholc-
some atmosphere, impure water and other external
causes, llosTETTER's BITTEEs may be relied on a
safeguard.
In districts infested with Fever and Aguc, it has
been found nallbc as preventive and irresistible
as II remedy, and thousands who resort to it under
apprehension of an attack, escape the scOurge; and
thousands who neglect to avail themselves of its
protective qualities in advance, are cured by very
brief course of this marvellous medicine Fever and
Aguc patients, after being piled with quinine for
months in vain, until fairly saturated with that dan
gerOus alkaloid, are not unfrcquently restored Ia
health within few days by the use Of lIosTETTER's
BITTERs.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigoratcd and the
appetite restored by this agreeable Tonic and hence
it works wonders in cases of Dyspepsia and in less
confirmed forms of Indigestion. Acting as gentle
and painless apcrent, as well as upon the liver, il
also invariably relieves the Constipation supcrin-
duced by irregular action Of the digestive and sccrc
tive organs.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Nervous Attacks
LOwncss Of Spirits, and Fits of AnguOr find prompt
mony on this point is most conclusive, and from both
sexes.
The agony of Bilious Collie is Immediately as
suaged bv single dose of the stmuan, and by oc-
casioually rcsortng 10 IT, the return of the complaint
may be prevented.
As General Tonic, IIosTETTER's BITTERs pro-
duce effects which must be experienced witnessed
before they can be fully appreciated. In cases Of
Constitutional Weakness, Premature Decay, and
Debility and Decrcpitudc arising from Old Age, il
exercises the electric influence. In the GONZALES
cent stages of all diseases it operates delightful
invigorant. When the powers otna turc relaxed
it operates to reinforce and re-csablsh them.
Last, but not least, it is THE ONLY SAFE STiMr.
