THE WHITE PINE COMPOUND CURES.

"It was early in the spring of1S55 that this Com
pound was originated. A member ofmy family was
afflicted with an irritation of the throat attended
with disagreeable cough. had for some months
previous thought that q preparation, having for
its basis the inside bark of white pine, might be so
compounded as to be very useful in the case ofthe
throat and lungs. To test the value of it in the
case alluded to. / compounded small quantity Of
the medicine that / had been planning and gave
it in teaspoonful doses. The result was exceed
lngly gratifying. Within two days the irritation
Jfthe throat was removed, the cough subsidized. and
speedy cure was effected. Soon after this sent
some to a lady in Londonderry. n. H., who had
oecn suffering for some weeks from a bad cough,
,ceasioned by sudden cold and had raised mucus
streaked with blood. She soon found relief. and
sent for more. She took about ten ounces Of it.
and got well. j. b. Clark. ESD. editor fthe Man

preparation in the case of severe cold, and was
cured Immediately. He was so highly pleased
with the results. and confident ofsuceess attend

MANY suppose that the labor of
editing and carrying on newspaper is
easy and attended with little or no wear
and tear upon the muscle and brain of
those who make that profession the
means whereby to clothe the outer and
feed the inner man. The editor of the
Burlington Standard uttered more truth
than poetry, when he wrote:
1t is one of the hardships of our pro-
fession than its working wheels-brains
and heart--are not allowed to drag for
sickness. or to stop for calamity or sor-
row. The Judge may adjourn his court,
the school and workshop may veil their
features and turn friend and stranger
from their door; but journalists must for
get before tomorrow the sorrow of to-
day, must write gaily and freshly, as a
newsmonger on the trifie of the hour,
whatsoever burden has been laid upon
that hour by Providence, or his brains
as a man. It sometimes tries aud mocks
at the world who reads what is thus
written, as we would never dream of.

THE DyISG NEVER WEEP.-It IS a
striking fact that the dying never weep.
The circle of salbing, agonlzlng hearts
around produces not tear. Is 1T that
he is insensibIe and stiff already in the
chill Of dissolution! That cannot be:
for he asks for his fathers hands, as IT
to gain strength in the mental struggle,
and leans on the breast of n mother,
brother, or sister, with still conscious at
fiction; and JUS: before expiring, Mt eve
after long days converse with the an
gels of summer be says, 10 his oldest
brother the last audible good night OF
earth-"Kiss me, kiss"
1t must be because tho dying have
reached a point too deep for our earthly
cry and weeping. They are face to
face with higher and holier thngs-wilh
the Father in Heaven and his angel
throng, led on by the Son himself, aud
what are griefs of mourning, teais OF a
dying farwell, be It that they arc sled
by the dearest on earth, in that vision
bright of immortal life and everlasting
reunion.

= We never read more coolly dia-
boIical paragraph than the following
1t is from HAMILToN's Memoirs of Count
c.. bis reputed father. The more
one studies its perfect diction, its calm.
dispassiopate statement, tho more fright

man who believes that his honor de

who torments himself and drives her to
despair; but he, who being naturally
jealous, has the additional misfortune of
loving his wife, and who expects she
should only live for him, is a perfect
mailman, whom the torments of hell
have actually taken hold Of in this world,
and whom nobody pi;ies. All reasoning

TRUE LOVE

I think true love is never blind.
But rather brings an added light;
An inner vision quick to find
The beauties hid from common sight.
No soul can ever clearly see
Another's highest, noblest part;
Save through the sweet philosophy
And loving wisdom of the heart.
Your unanointed eyes shall fail
On him who fills my soul with light;
You do not see my friend at all.
You see what hides him from your sight.
see the feet that fain would climb.
You, but the steps that turn astray;
see the soul unframed. sublime;
You, but the garment, and the clay.
You see a mortal, weak, misled,
Dwaried ever by the earthly clod;
see how manhood. perfected.
May reach the stature ola god.
Blinded l stood, as now yor stand,
Till on mine eyes, with touches sweet,
Love, the deliverer, laid his hand.
And loi worshiped at his feetl

translated from the Germa
of HEINE, by LELAND:
With their small gold feet the planets
Step on tiptoe. soft and light,
Lest they wake the earth below them,
Sleeping on the breast Of night
Listening stand the silent forests.
Every leaf a soft green ear.

- GROWING OLp.-We are all grow
ing old, but the fact brings different
thoughts to different people. Some
grudgingly release their hold upon the
passing years, and others view the ap-
preaching end with complacency, il not
with JOY. There is much of beauty and
truth in these paragraphs, which we clip
from tho Cincinnati Enquirer.
We do not feel that it isa. sad thing
TO grow old.
As we 60 forward and meet the years
each is messenger that tells us n pleas
ant story of the land to which we have
taken up our pilgrimage, and though we
may not lay hands upon them and do
tain them, yet they embue us with happy
thoughts and pleasant memories. that
clothe each coming messenger in halo
like garments of smiles and beauty. The
Journey cf life is but short. but it is long
enough TO teach us the idleneSs and lit
tleness of things earthly, and that our
eaittly tabernacle is far too narrow to
hold in thrail that invisible fire of NOR
tally that pulses through our being. or
even permit it to slime forth in that
briliancy that it SO much longs for,
Life is beautiful, but il is only bcauti
ful rs a panorama that moves on TO the
final climax when the curtains of eterni-
ty are drawn, and the marvellous beauty
of the universe opens with its endless
vistas Of glory upon our enlarged sight,
and the dreams of the past are paIed
from view in the blaze of the never end
ing Present. The sword and the toy
make up the sum of our existence, for
the old and young are nearest heaven.
Praltling childhood and silver age walk
hand in hand, and laugh at the gambol
ing lambs, an make pretty speeches to
the bright birds and butterflies, for the
veil of Time is but mist to the right
and to the left Of them, and Love and in
nocence stand like cherubs by the cradle
and the grave.
1t is only when we are among the
tropical clouds of the Middle Passage of
life that we utterly forget the emblems
Of innocence and turn the edge OF the
sword against the unwarring armies of
Beauty. And this we do out of very
blindness, for when we pass the noun

plain toward the gold and amethyst pill

- HERE is the end of life tragedy
not ,olored picture glowing on a

fuI girl, Is years of age, poisoned her
self in Chicago, few days ago. On her
dead body was found the following:
Ny DAZZLING PERcY.-The dark clouds are
gathering around the little girl you once
loved, and who still cliugs to you in hope
that your heart will soften: but oh, dear one,
to suffer the agony of this suspense is worse
than death. You trified with my susceptible
heart, but forgive you. l court death; and
yet If there seemed shadow of hope to re-
gain your love. once so true and tender.
would TO longer suffer the agony you have
thrown SO ruthlessly upon me. O. come.
come; press me to your heart again. and let
me die. Lovingly and true. AUGUSTA.
That is nothing mere trifle--only
a hell ofagony-a broken heart-ihat is
all. They are breaking every day, but
the great busy world does not pause TO
hear their dying throbs.

Deeply buried from human eyes,
