than any thing else which she tried. have
given 1t TO my children under almost every circum

marked benefit. have taken it myself with such
great benefit that cannot find words to express my
unqualified appreciation ofits goodness
While performing my duties a post officer IN

deal of sickness. / unhestatingy recommend VEGE-
TINE, and never knew where it did not prove
all that claimed oft. Particularly in of
debtated or impoverished state of the blood its Ell

arising from impure state of the blood it appears
to work like a charm and do not believe there are
any circumstances under which VEGETINE be used
with injurious results ard it will always afford me
pleasure to give any further information as to what
know about VEGETISE.

The Men that are Wanted.

The great want of this age is men. Men
who are not for sale. Men who are hon.
est, sound from center to circumference,
true to the hearts core Men who will
condemn wrong in friend or foe, in them
selves as we'll as in others. Men whose
consciences are as steady as the needle to
the pole. Men who will stand for the
right if the heavens totter and the earth
reels. Men who can tell the truth and
look the truth, and look the world and
the devil right in the eye. Men that
neither brag nor run. Men that neither
flag nor finch. Men who can have cour-
age without whistling for it, and joy with
out shouting to bring it. Men in whom
the current of everlasting life runs still,
deep and strong. Men too large for sec
tartan bands. Men who do not strive,
nor cry, nor cause their voices to be
heard in the streets, but who will not
fail or be discouraged till judgment be
set on the earth. Men who know their
message and tell it. Men who know
their duty and do it. Men who know
their place and fill it. Men who mind
their own business. Men who are not
too Lazy to work nor too proud to be
poor. Men who are willing to eat what
they earn, and wear what they have paid
for. Yes, young man, these are the kind
of men demanded by the present times.
But where shall we look for them2 Do
our colleges send them forth2 Are the
professions filed with them7 Do they
guide the plow, push the plane, or strike
the anvil7 The Spirit of Progress bids
them to come forth and take their places
in the front rank Of Reform and CiViliza-
ton.
