Knocked About in the World.

1t is good thing for young men to be
knocked about in the world,' though
his soft-hearted parents may not think so.
All youths, or if not all, certainly nine
teen-twentieths of the SUN total, enter
life with surplusnge of self-conceit. If
in measuring themselves with wiser and
older men than they are, they discover
that it is unwarranted, and get rid of it
gracefully of their own accord, we'll and
good if not it is desirable for their own
sakes that it be Knocked out of them. ,er
The boy who is sent to large school
soon finds his level His will may have
been paramount at home; but school boys
are democratic in their ideas, and if arro-
CANT. are sure to be thrashed into Ie-
cognition of the golden rule. The world
is great public school, and it soon teach
es new pupil his proper place. If he
has the attributes that belong to a leader,
he will be installed in the position of a
leader; if not, whatever his own opinion
of his own abilities may be, he will be
compelled to fall in with the rank and file.
If not destined to greatness, the next
best thing to which he can aspire is res
reliability. But no man can either be
truly great or respectable who is vain,
pompous and overbearing.
Bv this time the novice has found his
legitimate social position, be the same high
or low, the probability is that the disa-
greeable traits of his character will be
softened down or washed away. Most
likely the process of abrasion will be
rough, perhaps very rough; but when it
is all over and he begins to see himself as
others see him, and not reflected in the
mirror of self-conceit, he will be thank
full that he has run the gauntlet, and ar
rived, though by a rough road, at self
knowledge. Upon the whole, whatever
loving mothers may think tothe contrary
it is good thing for youths to be knock
ed ABOUT in the world-it makes men of
them.

JOHN WooLsfAN's RELIGIeN.-In the
seast I, of harvest it was customary among
farmers to kill calf or sheep for the la
borers. John Woolman, unwilling that
the animal should be slowly bled to death,
as the custom had been, and to spare it
unnecessary suffering, had q smooth block
of wood prepared TO receive the, neck of
the creature, when a single blow termina-
ted its existence. Nothing was more re-
markable in the character of Woolman
than his concern for the weN-being and
comfort of the brute creation. "What is
religion % asks the old Hindoo writer Of
the yishnu Sarmnn. Tenderness toward
all creatures" Or, as Woolman expresses
il, "where the love of God is verify per-
feeted,. tenderness towardsan creatures

and a care that we do not lessen that

NEARLY all diseases originate from Indi-
gestion and Torpidity of the Liver, and

If the Liver is Regulated in its action,
health is almost invariably secured Want
of action in the Liver causes Headache,
Constipation, Jaundice, Pain in the
Shoulders, Cough, Chills. Dizziness Sour
Stomach, bad taste in the mouth, bilious
attacks, palpitation of the heart, depfes-
sion of spirits, or the blues, and hun
dred other symptoms, for which Simmons,
Liver Regulator is the best remedy that
has ever been discovered. 1t acts mildly,
effectually, and being a simple vegetable
compound, can do no injury in any
quantities that it may be taken. 1t is
harmless in every way; it has been used
for 40 years, and hundreds of the good
and great from all parts of the country
will vouch for its being the purest and
best.
The Symptoms of Liver Complaint are
uneasiness and pain in the side, some
times the pain is in the shoulder, ard is
mistaken for rheumatism. The stomach
is affected with loss ofappetite and sick
ness, bowels in general costive, sometimes
alternating with lax. Tile head is troubled
with pain, and duh, heavy sensation, con-
siderable loss of memory, accom- panied
with rainful sensation of having left un-
done something which ought to have
been done. Often complaining of weak
ness, debility, and low spirits. Some.
times many of the above symptoms at
tend the disease, and as other times very
few of them; but the Liver is generally
the organ most Involved.

a strange disposition is that which leads
people to say .hatefuP things for the
merespleasure of saying them, When
you have done your best to please, and

out will pop some underhand stab which
you alone can comprehend-a sneer
which is masked, but which is too. well
aimed to be misunderstood. .. just half a
dozen words, only for the pleasure.of see
ing a cheek flush and an eye lose its
brightness only spoken because he is
afraid you are too happy or too conceited.
Yet they are worse than somapy blows.

Tho relaxation Of nervous energy which ere
ates an indlsposltion to physical or mental CT
fort, so strong - almost to amount to positive
inability, and which w term lassitude, proceeds
from . variety OF causes. The principal ofthesC
are constitutional debility, heat Of the atmos
phere, coupled with humidity, climatic changes
and the physical prostration consequent upon
long illness. But whatever the cause, It must
be perfectly clear that II the nervous system IL
unduly relaxed, something is required to brace
itup. That something Is Hostetter's Bltters,
which 10 universally recognized as the most
complete and speedy recuperant OF the physical
forces In existence. It has been 10 thoroughly
and widely demonstrated as to be q matter OF
positive certainty and familiar knowledge. that
the Bitters will not only rehabilitate the
physique, when shattered and wasted by dis
ease, but win also. II taken systematically, ae'
tually compensate the constitutionally feeble
frame for Its deficiency Of strength, and by In
fusing new life into o weak system, endow II
with the health and vigor which Nature has de-

sist the snerysting influences of heat, humidity
