stage which looked as it had been built be-
fore any locomotive. Still it rolled along
easily over an excellent limestone turn
pike. This road passes through the poor

the land is yellow shale, but there is a
strip of white clay land in the centre OF
this belt which is as level rs floor, and
which seems to promise a fine reward for
the labor of the farmer. Ii is, however, a
cold, wet soil, with very scant deposit of
mould upon the surface, and incapable of
any great improvement except after being
thoroughly undertlrained. Quite num-

their lack ofjudgment.. Had they bought

Celebrated
Blood Cleanser or Panacea

AS q medicine for children, the Pana-
cea is, in evosy way, calculated to take
the place of the endless variety of drugs
which are annually sold for that purpose,
and which are often very injurious. A
medicine which possesses the qualities Of
a cathartlc as well as u mill Alternative,
and which is capable of arresting disease
without the least injury to the child, Is OF
incalculable value to every mother. AS
a ~cathartic, it is very effective, yet il does
not, If given in proper quantities, cause
nausea or distress in the stomach or bow
els. 1t is it very pleasant to the taste,
which is q very important feature rs a
medicine for children. As u preventive
of disease it is unprecedented, as it acts
directly upon the digestive organs and
the blood. In all ~scrofulous diseases, it
is the most effective medicine ever offered
to the public; and, if given regularly and
perseveringly, those eruptive diseases
so common to children may be entirely
eradicated.

A Hint TO the Foolish.

In these days of revenue discussions

ciers may borrow a hint from q deputy in
the French Assembly, who, being a hus.

en- children, thinks of demanding that a
0apitation>tax be placed on bachelors.
Starting with the mournfal assertion hat
there are in his country at least two
million men who are not married, and
are yet arrived at mans estate, he pros
poses that these diiatory or reluctant
members Of society shall annually pay
eight dollars q head for their privilege of
single b~lessedness. This tax would FRO.
produce . revenue Of about sixteen anil.
lion dollars. Now. the question that will
arise in the readers mind is as to when
this culpahlc state of celibacy begins.

might be only too glad to do SO. On the
other hand, it is equally clear that the
line must be drawn somewhere. With a
commendable moderation, and even with
a degree of mercy, the French deputy
fixes the age Of thirty>fve as the one be-
yond which a disposition to celibacy may
be suspected as already confirmed. There
could be many arguments pro and con re-
garding the justice of drawing the line at
five and .thirty-and in fact the question
may be confidently commended to the no.
tice of debating societies Of mixed aca6e>
mics-but meanwhile it would at least
give an official date for taxable bachelor.

II Don't Care What People Say


"IDon't Care What People Say"
This is a very common expression, and
an untrue one also, for the very people
who say this oftenest, are all the time
careing and careing very much too, what
people say about them but strong in their
determination to do what they please,
they dare and brave public opinion, no,
pibg that their unwiso steps may be for
gotten as overlooked, and that they will
Econ be reinsta.ed 10 public favor.
Charity is one of the most abundant
of all the qualities Of human nature,
We have never realized to the full, how
much Of this sweet, joyous, noble and
generous possession We actually do own.
Because we bear so much SANDER, fault
finding, derislon, scorn, contempt and rid
icule uttered by one against another in
the world, we are too often led to think
there is very little charity abiding with
US. But let us pause amomout, and con-
slider every hard word or thought which
We utter or cherish in our hearts against
any person F.; do VIC not have numberlcss
gentle, loving, kind appreciative ones
towards others, aud do we not desire their
Love and approximations, and strive hard to
win it? Very rare and very few are tho
individuals who prefer a hermit life-cut
of from the sympathy and companionship
of all their kind. True some few do
live very much within themselves, as re-
CARDS tho real presence of others; but
these have their books, papers, and mag,
azines, thus keeping up a mind>commun-
ion which serve as q substitute for the
real living presence. Is it not evident
that We so love our kind and seek to be
with them, and SO value their spoken
and written words, that this is proof suf-
fcient that We must also prize their ap>
probation and good will? Indeed the
love of appreciation is the strongest and
most deeply rooted of all the qualities
which we possess. Few things hurt us
more than to be faulted, especially if we
feel that re ore really deserving of on
demnation, and that our W hearts en-
dorsc the uttered rebuke. Is it true that
unmerited and undeserved blame, SANDER
or contumcly affect the mind of true Phil
osophers but comparatively little, for they
feel that they can live il down! And
also the secret consciousness Of their hearts
that they have done only what seemed
to them right, will bear them up in spite
the reproach and rebuke Of their fellows.
But even these can never say-with en-.
tire truthfulness, that they don't care
what is said of tbem," for as we have be-
fore said, more free from this love of
praise and the desire to stand well in com.
munity! And may we not hope the
time will come when this public appre-
citation, this universal judgement, this
criticism Of our thoughts, words and deeds
will be all this incentive that we shall
need to induce us to do right, to keep in
the"straight and narrow way?" Will not
these do away with the gallows, jails,
and State prison, and all manner of con-
inemeut aud punishment
Then will come the Millennium of
peace on earth, and good will to man?"
and all shall be love, harmony and hap,
piness.
