WHAT MAKES THE MAN.-Many people
seem to forget that character grows-that it
is not something to put on, ready-made, with
manhood; but day by day, here q little and
there little, grows and strengthens with the
strength, until, good or bad, it becomes al
most coat of mail. Look at man of busi.
ness--prompt, reliable, conscientious. yet
clearheaded and energetic. When do you
suppose he developed all these admirable
qualities? When be was little boy.
Let us sec the way in which boy of ten
years gets up in the morning, works, plays,
studies, and We will tell you Just what kind
of man he will make. The boy who is late
at breakfast, and late at school, stands poor
chance to be prompt man. The boy who
neglects his duties, be they ever so small, and
then excuses himself by saying, "forgot! I
didn't thinkp' will never be reliable man.
And the boy who finds pleasure in the suffer-
ing Of weaker things will never be noble,
kindly man.

"That fine estate! what pity" exclaimed
Mrs. Crofton. "What misfortune for young
Frank Coventry; he seems to be such tai
ented, gifted young man."
"I thought the Coventrys were so rich,
said Alice.
"They have always been we'll off" rejoined
her father, 'though not one of the richest
county families. The property has always
been remarkably we'll managed. l can't i'm
agine why it should come to grief"
And then some question concerning the all
absorbing topic of the ball had arisen, and
that of the Coventrys and their difficulties
been put aside; but it was one Of painful in
terest to, at least, one of Mr.. Crofton's hear
ers, and by her, was not so easily forgotten.
The idea that Frank was unhappy, was in
trouble, had never occurred to her. She had
always connected his memory with everything
bright and careless and joyful, as he had al
ways seemed to her to be. But this new idea,
so unexpectedly presented to her, not only
awoke her anxiety in his behalf, but suggested
an explanation to some things in his behavior,
which had puzzled her before. She longed to
be able to help him, to be of some use to him.
It was so natural to her to hel lp any one IN
trouble, even those in whom she felt no par
ticular interest. But, alas how could she,
so far away, and with no means at her com.
mand, be to him what she desired? And
then, besides-and the thought gave her
pang-what right had she to help him, even
if she had not been without the power? What

would be folly, absolute folly in any case, for
Frank to persist in such an idea. He couldn't
afford to marry girl like that, if she was
ready and waiting for him; and the idea Of
casting aside his prospects of reasonable,
rational settlement in life to run after shad-
ow, a chimera, is unbearable. Of course the
girl is dead. She has been made away with
by some villain, or she would have been
heard of long ago; but were she as alive as
1 am, it would be equally impossible for her
to marry Frank"

RADICAL CURE
- For n
u CATARRH y

This may certify that have been a subject
Of that terrible disease, Catarrh of the Head
and Throat, for some 50 years, caused by tax
Ing cold in the month OF June, 1875. The at
tack at that time was SO severe that the doctor
and my friends thought must die. For years
and years have been SO sick that life has
been burden to myself and friends. 1t Is
useless for me to say how many doctors have
tried, how much medicine have taken, dur
ing all these years of endless suffering, but
those who suffer as I have suffered win know
that never ceased to look for relief, and to
try every remedy that promised 1t. IS
In September, 1876, began the use of SAN
FoRDS RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH. No
sooner did begin TO use II than my symptoms
changed. 1t cleared my throat, It cleared my
head, 1t cleared my mind. 1t operated on my
system in way that nothing ever before given
me by doctors had done. How rapidly i'm
proved under the influence of this wonderful
medicine those who have known me for years
can testify. And now, sirs, to make long
story short will say would not exchange
the good 1t has done me for the whole world
and all it contains. My memory, which was
nearly all gone, has returned again, and I
could tell of Affections have endured too
great for some people to credit. 1 can with a
clear conscience and the strongest faith yttest
to this on the Holy Bible. Gcd bless the man
that found out this remedy.

The vitality OF seeds may be tested by
