There Is scarcely branch OF human indus
try in which India Rubber has not in some
form found its way. Althoug', widely known
and used, but few are aware OF its medicinal
virtues and great curative properties. Prac-
tical experiment has pru1en that it is natur-
al reservoir OF electricity, containing more
than any known substance or compound
Owing to this fact 1t has been used with sue
cess in curing Nervous complaints and Rheu-
matism that were invulnerable to drugs.
1t has also been discovered that India Rub
Der possesses all the properties valuable as
aspe ihc for Pulmonary complaints and cures
many forms OF Consumption and Lung dis
eases. Combined with Capcine it is unparal-
leled as Pain Reliever, whether external
or internal. Nearly all the Surgeons have
adopted 1t ON account OF its great healing
properties.
The most effectual way Of using the article
is in the form OF a perforated plaster. The
extensive use OF ordinary PerfoI ated or Por-
Gus Plasters, is a testimony to its merit.

She quieted the dog and tainted away.
But the noise made by the dog had a.

three men standing by his side, each

Mr.. Mccoy handed them $40, his

The Shower Of Gold.

1t was bright afternoon in midsummer.
and the ieweler who lives in the sun was
showering everything with gold. Did you
never hear of the jeweler who lives in the
sun 1t is he who in the morning turns
the dew-drops into sparkling diamonds, and
at MONDAY makes rainbow bridges of the
seven precious stones, and when sunset
comes, builds castles Of ruby with gates of
pearl 4 wonderful workman is he, and
now he was emptying great bushel.baskets
full of gold-dust out of his shop windows,
and the lake was all smooth gold as far as
eyes could see, and the green trees were all
covered, and go We're the blue mountains,
and one could see it coming softly down
through the air from beyond the white clouds.
-Four men were in boat on the lake and
one said TO the others Look at the gold ~
One was poet, who sang TO hearts of the
golden age; and one was miser who
boarded the yellow gold so that no one but
him could see it, or use it, and it could do no
good aud the third was barterer who
bought and sold it, and thought of it only
and the last was an artist, who had golden
visions, and painted pictures that made folks
joyful with longing.

one thought to himself What may do

Cold Gray Stones.

Two cold gray stones, cousins of mine
live in great tiresome city.
The wind brought the story to me, and SO
you may be sure it is all true.
These cousins We're part Of the backward
of a wretched little house, and in the wretched
little house lived pale, blue-eyed child.
The poor child had never seen ANYTHING
growing but the struggling grass, that tried
to force its way up here and there in the
dirty streets.
80 dearl" said one of my cousins to the
other, one day, show | wish she could see a
flower when along came the Wind in a
great hurry, as he almost always is.
puff puff said he, show hot You are
here. How do you do Z"
Same as ever" said my cousin; but
what are you carrying
A few seeds" answered the Wind, al
picked up miles from here, and I'm looking
for some good, rich earth TO drop them on. y
" Dear Wind" said my cousins do drop
some here"
q" Here " said the Wind, and he laughed
until the wretched little house shook. "What
good would they do here | see plenty of
dirt-ha ha no no but no eaith-ho
no ha ha !"
- u 'itNl 't bfAMNtll us, Ndlu my
cousin, "where there is little earth do
stop for moment and look, dear Wind)
and we think flower might grow there.
Please give us one seed, and we will hide il
from the birds, and watch it carefully until
it grows to gladden. the heart of the pale
blue-eyed child"
" All right" said the Wind, and he blew
a seed in the crack, between the Z" two cold
gray stones, and then fled, laughing, around
the corner
Aud the seed took root, and sent up two
bright green leaves, to tell the stones that
there was more on the way, and the blue,
eyed child, coming into the backyard Ia
look at the patch of sky, one morning, spied
them and clapped her hands with gladness.
And from that day as the plant grew and
grew, she became happier and happier; and
when fragrant purple and white flower
opened to the sun, her joy knew no bounds.
And with each succeeding blossom came
new joy, and so the child was happy all
summer long. And my cousins looked ON
and were well content
My sermon is finished. | suppose Won
know the greatest writer that ever lived said
we stones could preach
Yes, sir. lie said there were sermons in
u.s. You have got TO acknowledge that, II
you do call us " cold, gray nes."-Chri,,

well organized league between the working
men Of the city and the working.men Of the
farm. This is to be compassed yet, and It's
accomplishment will be q strong test Of the
power Of the laborer peacefully by his own
intelligence and energy, to right his wrongs.
All that the workingmen are seeking in
these matters, is directly in the line OF prac-
teal Christianity and practical republican
ism. II is sad that neither preachers nor
statesmen arc yet awake to the truth OF this.
But how can the farmer long ignore the facts
which our second quotation from Mr. How
els article set forth The greedy CONNER
cial spirit. the grasping eagerness Of capital
is the spirit Of this world, against which the
teaching Of Christ is a constant protest, and
against which, If His ministers fail continu-
ally to raise their voices, they are untrue to
their mission Being thus untrue, the com
mon people cease to hear them gladly, and,
finally, to hear them at all. II they allow
themselves to be invaded by the world
when the world has money" they need not
"weep sentimentally over the masses the
body Of workingpeople, among whom dwells
whatever of stalwart manhood remains
among us, whom they have alienated by
their fawning to wealth. We quote the
words from one Of their own number.
1t is truly among prosperous aud conteuted
workingpeople that religion has always had
her strongholds, "when mems minds turned
fervidly from the hard work days Of this
world to the Sabbaths of another the eternal
summer and glory, and fruition Of the New
Jerusalem" Gaudy temples, meretricious
music, " the generalzing Of the pulpit" and
a large salary--all at the cost of Spectators
and stock gamblers--s a sorry substitute for
the religion of our fathers, but it is the APP
propriate accompaniment of decaying indus
try and deserted farms.
Fortunately these evils, through the grace
of God, tend to work their own cure That
they have not yet attracted the attention of
our public men is perhaps because so few of
them are really statesmen" There is an
effort afoot to change this, and sooner or
later it will succeed. 1t must succeed for
the decay Of our industries means ruin, even
to those very cities now fattened with illegit-
innate profits won from the workmen. The
example of Rome and OF Spain is before us.
The modern nations Of Europe, save Swift
erland, all stand on the brink of the same
precipice over which they fell. America
still has the mastery Of her own destinies,
and it is by the hands Of her farmers and
working-men that she must be saved
