Poetry.
So Goes the World.


Our varied days pass on and ON,
Our hopes fade unfulflled away,
And things which seem the life of life,
Are taken from Us day by day;
And yet through all the busy streets
the crowd of pleasure-seekers throng,
The puppets play, the showman's calls,
And gossips chat the whole day long,
And so the world goes on.
Our little dramas come to naught;
Our lives may fail, our darling plan
May crumble into nothingness,
Our firmest castle fall to sand;
And yet the children sing and dance,
The money-makers laugh and shout,
The stars unmindful, still shine bright;
Unconscious that our light is out,
And SO the world goes on.
The house grows sad that once was gay,
The dear ones seek their Blessed Home,
And we may watch and wait in vain
To hear their well-known footsteps come
And yet the sunlight checks the floor,
And makes the summer shadows long,
The rose-buds at the easement bloom,
The bird pours forth his cheerful song,
And SO the world goes on.
And God goes on, and with our woe,
Weaves golden threads of Joy and peace,
Guarding with His heart of hearts,
Our days of pain, our days of ease
He marks them all-the seed, the sheaves,
The danger smile, the mourner's tears,
A IND keeps them safe-His children all
Through all the great eternal years,
And so, thank God, the world goes on.

Buy HoME.-We fully endorse the
opinion of the Knoxville Wing, that every
laboring man should buy himself town lot,
get that paid for, and then work to make
the necessary improvements. A little here
and a little there will in due time produce
you home of your own, and place you out
Of the landlords grasp. Remember that
fifty dollars year saved in rent, will in
very few years pay for your home, and the
money it costs you to move aad shift, about
without any loss Of furniture and time, will
pay the interest on few hundred dollars
Judgment against your property, until you
can gradually reduce it to nothing You
can all buy that way-why do you not risk
it ? If you fail you are no worse Off you
succeed, as any careful man is sure to dc,
you have made home and established a
basis equal to many another's which will
start you in business

IDLE GIRLs.-It is painful spectacle in
families, where mother is the drudge, to
see the daughters, elegantly dressed, re-
clining at their ease with their drawing,
their music, their fancy work, and their
reading, beguiling themselves of the lapse
of hours, days and weeks: and never dream
ing Of their responsibilities but as nsces-
sary consequence Of neglect of the duty,
growing weary of their useless lives. laying
hold of every newly invented stimulant to
arouse their dropping energy, and blaming
their fate when they dare not blame their
God for having placed them where they are.
These individuals will often tell you with
an air of affected compassion (fsr who ca
believe it really that poor dear mama is work
ing herself tc death, yet no sooner do you
propose that they should assist her that they
declare she is quite in her element, in short,
that she would never be happy if she had
only half so much to do.

MARRIAGE MAxM1Ms good wife is
the greatest earthly blessing.
A man is what his wife makes him
1t is the mother who moulds the character
and destiny Of the child
Make marriage matter of moral judg-
ment
Marry into different blood and temper
ament from your own
Marry into family which you have long
known.
Never both manifest anger at once.
Never speak loud to one another, unless
the house is on fire.
Never reject On a pact action which was
done with good motive and with the best
juegdmsnt at the time.
Let each one try to yield oftensst to the
other.
Let self abnegation be tho daily aim and
effort 70 each.
The very nearest approach to domestic
felicity on earth is mutual cultivation of an
absolute unselGshness
Never find fault unless it is perfectly GER
tain that fault has been committed, and
even then prelude it with kiss, and loving
ly.
Never allow request to be repeated -
81 forget" is never an acceptable excuse.
Never make remark at the expense OF
the other it is meanness

Your influence.

There are two or three thoughts
about your influence, that would
like to bring to your mind.
The first is, that you are exercis-
ing it unconsciously. What your
life says, affects others more than
what your lips say. The whole ten
dency of yoQr living must be Christ
ward and heavenward, if you wish
tolead souls to Christ and to heaven.
If any selfish motive, any low ambi
tion, anything of the earth, earthly,
is the handspring of your life, it
will be in vain for you to talk of the
higher ideal, of the lofty abnegation
of self, of the riches laid up above.
The second is that your influence
is wide-spreading and far-reaching.
sIt is not for now and to- day alone,
it is for the age. The train you set
in motion will never stop till it
reaches eternity. The pebble thrown
on the lake that produces ripples
from wave to wave, till every one is
stirred, is but faint illustration of
the influence of one conscientious
action, of one word fifty spoken.
The third is that regarding life
and its responsibilities as gift of
God, nothing connected with your
influence is trivial. Nothing is small.
The most secret and silent thought,
the most quiet word, the least act of
your life, is as important as the act,
or word, or thought of some one
else who lives in public, and whose
deeds are proclaimed from the
housetops.
Use your influence for Jesus.

The Rising Tide.

A little vessel, with Goals on
board, was once being repaired at
Solway Firth. By some accident it
commenced to keel over, and one
man did not succeed in escaping.
The vessel pinned him to the ground
Instantly efforts were made to res
cue him from the distressing posi-
ton. Great hawsers were attached
to the masts and strong arms
wrought like giants, but all in vain.
Not an inch could the vessel be
moved.
Soon the rising tide would float
it off, but alas! before that,it would
float over him.
When they saw that their labors
were all in vain, they ceased their
exertions, and minister was sent
for. In the agony of body and de-
spair of mind, he was in a poor
frame to prepare for eternity. But
there was no delaying, no smore
convenient season" to which he
might put it of. He listened and
prayed as best he could. while the
cruel waves kept creeping higher and
higher.
They reached at last his lips,and
asking for handkerchief to cover
his face that he might not see his
destroyer, he perished in full sight
of hundreds who would gladly have
helped him if they could.
1t must be agonizing to see a fel-
low creature perish thus, when there
is no possibility of aiding him. .
But what should we think of the
inhumanity of those who could, but
would not, reach out a hand to save
him?
Apply this spiritually, and let us
see if none of us are guilty of like
unkindness to perishing souls.
The tide of eternity will soon
float over them.
Whittier then, will they be watt
ed?
Thus life or death may depend on
our faithfulness.-S. s. Times.

EOf Dlbce@SCS VI Tie LArOt-t hflo A01Rsz
such as Coughs, Colds Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has any thing won so widely and so
deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through long series of years, and among most
of the races of men it has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, it has become better known.
Its uniform character and power to cure the va
rious affections Of the lungs and throat, have
made 1t known as a reliable protector against
them. While adapted to mlder forms Of disease
and to young children, it is at the same time the
most e1ectual remedy that can be given for ncip-
lent consumption, and the dangerous affections
sudden attacks of Crots2, it should be kept on
hand In every family, and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and coughs, all should be
provided with this antidote for them
Although settled Consumption is thought in
durable, still great numbers of cases where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry Pecforaf. So complete is its
mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and
Throat that the most obstinate of them yield to it,
When nothing else could reach them, under the
Cherry PectoraI they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great
protection from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PICTORIAL in small and frequent doses
So generally are its virtues known, that we
need not publish the certificates Of them here, or
do more than assure the public that its qualities
are fully maintained.
