Dear Sir This is to certify that had been sur

grew very rapidly, and all my friends had given me
up to die, when heard OF your medicine, Vegetine,
recommended for Cancer and Cancerous H1mors.

ginning to feel better my health and spirits both felt
the benign influence which it exerted, and in a few
months from the time commenced the use of the
Vegetine, the Cancer came out almost bodily

restoring the patient TO perfect Health after trying
different physicians, many remedies suffering for
years. is it not conclusive proof, if you are snfer
en- you can be cured? Why is this medicine perfor-
ming such great cures? 1t works in the blood in the
circulating fluid. 1t can truly be called the Great
Blood purifier. The great source of disease origi-
mates in Il e blood and no medicine that does not
act directly upon it, to purify and renovate has any

Good Society.

Many parents who have sons and daugh-
tiers growing UP are anxious for them to
get into good society. This is an honora-
BILE anxiety, if it interprets good society
after some proper fashion. Parents, your
daughter is III good society when she is
with girls who are sweet and pure and
true-hearted; who are not vain or frivo-
lous; who think of something besides dresss
or flirting. or marriage ; between whom
and their parents there is condolences; who
are useful as well as ornamental in the
house; who cultivate their minds, and
train their hands to skillful workmanship.
If society of this sort is not to be had;
then none at all is preferable to worth
less article. See to it that you impress
this On your children, and above all, that
you do not encourage them to think that
good society is a matter of fine clothes, Or
wealth, or Boosting to be somebody. AS
you value your child's soul, guard her
against these miserable counterfeits and
simplicity, and modesty, and goodness, are
the only legal coin.
The same rule holds for boys as we'll as
for girls. You would have these enter in
to good society. DO not imagine that you
have accomplished it wien you have got in
with set of boys whose parents are veal
thier than you, who dress better than your
boy can afford to, and who pride them
selves upon their social position. Good So
ciety for boy, is the society of boys who
are honest and straightforward, who have
no bad habits, who are earnest and ambi-
tious. They are not in a hurry to be men.
They are not ambitious for the company
Of shallow, heartfess women, old enough
to be their mothers, and are not envious
Of their friends who fancy there is some
thing grand in dulling the edge of their
hearts hope upon such jaded favorites.
There is nothing sadder than to see eth
Ell young men or women priding themselves
upon the society which they enjoy, when
verify it is Dead Sea apple that will choke
them with it's dust, when they need some
generous, juicy fruit to cool their lips and
stay the hunger of their souls Christian

UNTIL DEATH.

Make me no VOWS of constancy, dear friend,
To love me, tho die, thy whole life long,
And love no other till the days shall end;
Nay, it were rash and wrong.
If thou cans't love another, be it so;
would not reach out of my quiet grave
To bind thy heart, if it should choose to go;
Love should not be a slave.
My placid ghost, trust will wake serene,
In clearer light than gilds these earthly mcrns
Above the jealollsies and envies keen,
Which sow this life with thorns.
Thou wouldst not feel my shadowy caress,
If after death, my soul should lnger here,
Mans heart Graves tangible, close tenderness,
Loves presence, warm and near.
1t would not make me sleep more peacefully
If thou vert wasting all thy life in woe,
For my poor sake; what love thou hast for me,
Bestow it ere go.
Carve not upon stOne when I am dead,
The praises which remOrseful m0urners give,
To women's graves; tardy recompense--
But speak them while live.
Heap not the heavy marble on my head,
To shut away the sunshine and the dew;
Let flowers bloom there, and let grasses wave
And rain drops filter through,
Thou wilt meet many farer and more gay
Than I but trust me, thou canst never find
One who will love and serve thee night and day
With more single mind

How TO TREAT STRAW MATTING,-If
white straw mating is washed twice dur
ing the summer in salt and water-a pint
of salt to half pale full of warm, soft
water-and dried quickly with soft cloth,
it will be long before it will turn yellow.
A thin coat of varnish applied to straw
mating will make it much more durable,
and keeps the mating looking fresh and
new. White varnish should be used on
white mating. If thus vanished, it will
not need to be washed. Be sure and have
the varnish thin, or the mating will
crack. ...

the dogs soon after freed. Hall went up to
finish him, succeeding in shooting HIM ont,

the bear close after him, bent on mischief
just as Hall went to jump big log the bear
took him in the rear administering severe
spanking which took nearly all his clothing

him oil about which time the other two men
came up and joined in with several shots
which finally discouraged the brute unto
death. Hall was badly scratched ami Some
