If they had been wise, the dire necessity of
opening the grave for one so lovely might have
been averted. Plantation Bitters, if timely
used, are sure to rescue the young and lovely,
the middle-aged, and the ailing, from con-

Almost all diseases have their beginning in
some slight difficulty of the stomach, which
would eventuate in dyspepsia, headache. liver

HONOR YOUR CALLING.--Wo
commend this paragraph, from the
London Economist, to all who have
a vocation"
It IS a good sign when man is
proud of his work or his Calling
let nothing is more common than
to hear men finding fault constantly
with their particular business, and
deeming themselves unfortunate be-
cause fastened to it by the necessi-
ty of gaining a livelihood. In this
spirit men fret and laloriously de-
stroy all their comfort in their work
or they change their business and
90 on niscrably, shifting from one
thlng to another, till the grave Or
the poor house gives them u fast
grip. But while occasionally a man
fails in life because he is not in the
plac g fitted for his peculiar talent,
it happens ten times ottener that
failure results from neglect and even
contempt Of an honest business. A
man should put heart into every
thing that he does. There is not %
profession that has not its peculiar
cares and ycx9 ons. No man will
escape annoyance by changing bus
mess.
No mechanical business is alto
gcther agreeable. Commerce, in its
endless varieties, is affected, like all
other human pursuits, with trials,
unwelcome duties, and spirit-tirng
/ necessities. IT ~ the very wantOn-
] ness of folly for man to search out
/ the frets and burdens Of his calling,
and give his mind every day to a
consideration of them. They belong
to human life. and they are all inev-
liable. Brooding over them only
gives them strength. On the other
hand, man has power given to
him to shed beauty and pleasure
upon the homeliest toll, If he is
wise. Let a man adopt his business
and identify it with his life, and
cover il with pleasant associations
for God has given Us imagination,
not alone to make some poets, but
to enable all men to beautify homcly
things. Heart yarnish will cover
up innumcrable evils and defects
Look at the good things. Accept
