and that virtue is simply a name,

looks With charitable eyes upon the
weakness and defects of his neigh>
Dor, remembering that he is partak~
or of the same nature, and liable to
the same moral cslamnities. 1t is
within the range of possibility for
every man to become q Guiteau.
The cultivation of every upright,
generous and pure principle is the
only safeguard with which young
men can hedge themselves in.
1t is the old saying that "every
man has his weak point" One
man is easily Aattered concerning
bis shrewdness; another on his en-
terprising tact f; another on the ami
able qualities Of bis personal chsrac

category of mems susceptibilities
10 almost every man there is an
equipoise, an obvious leaning to the
weak side, an irregularity Of balance
which may become a mighty factor
of evil and incalculable misery
Human nature is a curious com.
pound of evil and good, with strong
tendency 10 the increase of the for
mer. For young man to become
stable in that which conduces to his
welfare, he must energise the growth
of good and excellent qualities snd
learn to discriminate between the
effects which shall enrich the pro-
ductive ground of virtue, or that
which shall SOW yielding

CHOLERA COMING
Philadelphia Record.

A prediction is made by Mr.. B.
G. jenkins, F. R. A. S, that next
year there will be a great attack of
cholera throughout the world. He
basis his opinion on the periodicity
of the disease, which reaches it's
maximum virulence every sixteenth
or seventeenth year. He says that
cholera was rife throughout the
world in 18l7,1633, 1850 and 1866,
and therefore it will again reach its
highest fatality 10 1888. He fur>
Their shows that, as the first appear
ance of cholera in England took
place in October, 1881, and that it
has returned in epidemic form with
unfailing accuracy every seven>
teeth year since year since then,
there is reason to expect ii next
year, especially as it is known to
be raging in India. Forewarned
ought to be forearmed.
