It is the bubbling spring that flows

day and night by the farmhouse, that
is useful, rather than the swollen food
Of the roaring cataract. Niagara excites
our wonder, aud we stand amazed at
the power and greatness of God there,
as he "pours il from the hollow Of His
hand" But one Niagara is enough for
the continent and the world, while the
same world requires thousands and tens
Of thousands of silver fountains and
gently-howing rivulets that water every
farm and meadow, and every garden,
and that shall flow every day and every
night with their gentle, quiet beauty.
SO with the acts of our lives. 1t is not
by great deeds, like those of the martyrs,
that good is to be done. 1t is by the
daily and quiet virtues of life, the
Christian temper, the good qualities of
relatives and friends, and all, that it is
to be done.

common of these complaints is Leucorrh@a OF
Whites, which brought either by the presence
of Scrofua in the system, or by some affection of the
womb. or even by general debility. For all these
complaints, and when danger begins to threaten
woman at the turn of life VEGETINE can be COM
mended without qualification. The great prevalence
of these disorders, and their by VEGETISE has
amply shown that the allevating agent remains

Busy Man.

A Milwaukee man while in Chicago
recently sent a bouquet of flowers to
relative in a Wisconsin town, and when
he heard from them they had arrived
four days after being shipped, wilted
and dead. He was mad, and in talking
it over with railroad man, the rail-
roader said: "You must not expect too
much OF an express agent. Now that
bouquet has to pass - Junction, and /
know the express agent there. He is
the depot agent, express agent, keeps
restaurant, is postmaster, acts as switch
man, helps unload freight, checks bag
gage, keeps a store, works team on the
road, drives passengers to adjoining
towns, is sexton in a church, buys coun-
try produce, keeps the hay scales, runs
the caucuses of both political parties,
goes out shooting chickens with bum
mers. keeps pool table, has mill for
grinding sugar cane, and runs a hop
yard, besides helping his wife run a
millinery store. Now, a man that has
as much business as that ought to be
excused for letting bouquet remain in
the express Office week or ten days"
The man who sent the bouquet said,
come to think of it, they were
mighty lucky to get the flowers at all,
and he would apologize for any words
he might have spoken in the heat Of
debate. What the country wants is a
diversity of Industries. .-Psck's Sun.
