CURE FOR A TERRIBLE DIS,

CURE FOR A TERRIBLE DIS
ORDER OF THE MOUTH COM
MONTY CALLED SLANDER.-
Take of good nature one ounce,
and of an herb called by the
Indians mind your-own-busi-
ness, an ounce-mix these with
a little charity for failings, and
two or three sprigs of keep
your tongue between your
teeth, simmer them together in
a vessel called circumspection
for a short time, and the mix
ture will be fit for use. The
symptoms are a violent itching
in the roof the mouth, which
invariably takes place when
you are with a kind of animal
called gossips. When you feel
a turn of it coming on, take a
teaspoonful of the above, and
hold it in your mouth, which
you will keep closely shut until
you get home.

Be Kind to Your Wife.

Be kind to your wife. Think
how in the first blush of maid
en- beauty she turned aside from
the haunts of pleasure and the
cares of fond parents and
brothers and sisters, to follow
your fortunes through the
world. Think with what blend
ed hope and agony you follow
ed her from place to place,
watching her every look, and
bordering the meaning of her
most careless tones, until, won
by your importantly she placed
her hand all trustfully in yours
and said, II am all your own"
Think of the cares and ankle
ties, and the physical suffering
she has incurred for you, and
donot desert her now, when
her cheek has faded, her step
has lost its elasticity and she
sits an accomplishing watcher
over yonr best interests, a self
incarcerated prisoner in her
own home.

Not only the wealth, but the
independence and security of a
country appearto be materially
connected with the prosperity

with a view to these great OBJ
jeets, ought to endeavor to pos

tails of national supply. These
comprise the means of subsis-

mand an influence, whether it
be in the work shop, the count
ing house, the mart, or the sem

intellect; but something more
is necessary before you will

Russell once observed in a SEN

nature of party in England to
ask the assistance of men of
genius, but to follow the gui-

in the career of the late Francis

says Lord Cockburn, " which
his history is calculated to teach
every right-minded youth, is
this: He died at. the age of
thirty-eight, possessed of great

1t is not great ealamities that
embitter existence, it is the
petty vexations, the small jeal-
ousies, the little disappoint-
ments, the minor miseries, that
make the heart heavy and the
temper sour. Don't let them.
Anger is a pure waste of vital
ity; it is always foolish, and
always disgraeeful, except in
some very rare cases, when it
is kindled by seeing wrong
done to another; and even that
noble rage seldom mends the
matter.

- No man becomes a vii
lain in a day. Congenial as sin
is to the natural heart, and in
clined as the wicked may be to
the pursuits of vice, there is a
first step in the path of crime.
At that point in the career of
guilt, the man has shuddered at
the thought of deeds which he
afterwards performed without
.remorse. He never dreamed of
the extremity to which one
transgression will lead.

About Money.

Great SAKE has sung about how money
But how it comes-who knows?
Why, every Western mothers son
Can tell you how the thing is done:
re comes by honest toll and trade, t
BY welding sledge and driving spade,
And building ships, balloons, and drums
And that's the way the money comes.
How does it come? The way is plain:
By raising cotton, corn, and cane;
By guiding ships across the main; 5es
BY selling groceries so low
That not rival dareS to crow,
While customers, q steady fiow,E sg3
Come pouring in, and, as they go, r
They take bargain to their homes
And that's the way the money comes.
HOW does it come? Why, as 1t goes:
BY spinning, weaving, knitting hose;
BY stitching shirts and coats for Jews
Erecting churches renting peWs,
fIIasd 6bepts aagaIhR 466s choose
Of selling groceries so cheap that those
thumbs
May save their money as 1t comes.
How's money saved? Why, don't you
BY visiting Main Street, ~,
Where Teas and Sugars, and Coffees too,
Are sold so cheap that all who go
May receive the benefit of the late decline
In all kinds of goods in the grocery line;
And that's the way the moneys saved.
