church. Never go, except when you can
manufacture no good excuse to stay at
home.
9. When at church be either asleep or
staring about. Do not listen to the SER
mon.
3. When you go home complain of the
sermon as light and chaffy, Or dry and un-
interesting.
d. Treat your pastor with cold and un-
inviting civilty, and then complain of him
because he does not visit YOU
5. Neglect to pray for blessing upon
him and his labors, and then complain of
him because the church does not prosper.
6. Be always finding fault with your pas
tor, and yet regret that he is not more pop
ular with the people.
Z. BE very lukewarm and worldlymind-
ed, and yet complain of him for want of
zeal.
8. Neglect to provide for his necessary
wants, and then complain of him because
he wants his salary.
Do all these things, and you will never
fail to have poor pastor.

this head which often aches with WEAKNESS
shall be encircled with the crown of glory.
Think of the time when our hands are worn
with toll shall grasp the palm branch, and
the feet that are weary with this pilgrim

our constant occupation shall be to glorify
him who has uplifted us from the miry class
and set our feet upon a rock, and estab-
lished our goings for ever.

Letter to Carl SchurZ.

The speech delivered by Carl Schurz We'd
nesday has created profound impression in
political circles. The most significant thing
connected with it is the following letter
formally addressed to Schurz and signed by
several hundred confederate soldiers, en-
bracing every grade and rank of the late
rebel serving from privates and non commits
stoned officers up the Major Generals. The
signers generally are representatives and
men of influence in the community.
Nashville, Sept. 81. Hon. Carl Schurz,
Dear Sir We the undersigned formerly
confederate soldiers, wish to express to you
our high regard and admiration of the un-
selfish, non-partisan, cultured, and patriotic
address delivered by you in this city. We
admire your manly, independent spirit which
refuses obedience to party when in conflict
with ones convictions of duty and right. We
pledge you that we are no partisans, but we
have faith that our words can express in sub
lime significance of mission and destiny of
the American republic, that we honor the ma
tional flag, as an assured herald of that day
when races of men of all ranks and condi-
tons will be redeemed and delivered from all
species of political and mental thraldom. We
wish to turn our backs on all sectional par
ties, and all parties CROPPING in the moonlight
of the past, and ally ourselves with any party
that shall be animated with the spirit of civil
and religious federation and brood, and ele-
waited patriotism, and not bound by State
lines, but inspired with an abiding faith, the
genius of free institutions.

greeting. and assuring the audience he was

dent of the whole people. After again re-
turning thanks for the reception he retired to

several hundred persons.

This is an age of inquiry and people are
beginning to realize the magnitude of the
Evil caused by the use of injurious compounds
for the hair, which are prepared and forced
into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware of the
injury they are producing. These prepara-
lions have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous SUBJ
stances, causing Nervousness, Headache, Par.
alysis, and often fatal results.
In contrast with such injurious articles, we
call attention to the Hair Restorer prepared
by DR.. r. Greene, Superintendent of the Bos-
ton Medical Institute, who has been a sue
cessful physician in Boston for more than o
quarter of century. DR.. Greene uses Veg
etable Remedies only, and can assure the pub
lie that this Hair Restorer will do oil that is
claimed for it, without possibility Of injury.
81 have tested sample Of DR.. Greenes Hair
Restorer, and find that no poisonous metals or
Injurious matters exist IN ii.
The use of this Hair Restorer for twenty
five years has tested its superiority as dress
ing, and its power to preserve the hair and
scalp in healthy condition. 1t removes
dandruff, prevents the hair from falling off,
preserves its natural color, restores it when
prematurely gray, renders it soft and glossy,
promotes its healthy growth, and is the best
dressing ever discovered. While other prep
arations are sold at almost any price, DR..
ureene's Hair Restorer has sustained its good
qualities, Its price, and its reputation. 1t is
prepared by DR.. r. Greene at the Medical In
stitute, "a Temple Place, Boston, and sold al
Sl per bottle, or six for IS, or sent by ex-
press to any part Of the country. Pamphlet
sent free. Address DR.. II. Greene, "a Tenn,
