TRUTHFULNESS.

To children as to us all, hut to
children especially, is example better
than precept. What a good thing
for both ourselves and them if we
could always bear this in mind, and
order our actions and our lives as we
would have them order theirs
Their eyes are ever on their parents,
not to criticise, not to censure or
blame, bnt to try to initiate. To
child whatever is, is right, if father
or mother does it; and he will grow
up, not acting as you have told him to
act, but in very great measure, the
same as he has seen you act. What
q beautiful trait in child's character
for instance, is candor and truth
fulness! How poor figure sneaky
child, who has made some excuse,
or even told lie, to hide fault,
looks beside the bold little fellow
who at once admits wrong action
And yet the child is just what the
mother makes him. Can she expect
her child to be truthful if she herself
be not so-if she is heard to lie be-
fore him, even in little matters, or to
force into a breach lame excuse,
where the truth would have acted bet
ter and more Dol dly? Women Them
selves do not nor cannot be expected
to know the amount of misery and
Indebtedness that untruthfulness and
want of candor causes in this world.
But men could tell them. Among
the poorer classes, | am sorry to say
truth does not shine as a virtue but
in middle class life, that life with
which we have the most to do, it
ought to and does, and man who
has been found untruthful cannot,
if he possesses a spark of feeling,
hold his face up before the sun of
society. Untruthfulness has blighted
many life, and broken many a
friendship 'twixt man and man.
Now, we should not only be most
truthful IN our conversation before
children, but we should be truthful
towards them. We should never
on any account, deceive them,' MOI
make promises to them which we dc
not mean sacredly to fulfl-even i
it be the promise of punishment
This latter is some times necessary
though but seldom yet the habit o
threatening child with no intention
of fulfilling such threat is greatly Il
be deprecated. ....

SUNDAY LAWS.

Are our Sabbath laws to be en-
forced, or are they not? is a question
that confronts the Christian masses
of America. Everywhere there is
tendency to wink at all delinquencies
in that direction on the part of the
law. if not openly, boldly trampled
under foot. In Cleveland, a few
days since, meetings were held adj
dressed by English and German
speakers, not only to denounce the
Sunday laws in general, but in par
ticular those prohibiting the sale of
intoxicating liquors on that day. We
trust this country will ever be the
asylum of the oppressed of all nations,
but those oppressed who have come
to our shores, to share the blessings
of civil and religious freedom be-
queathed to US by the fathers of the
revolution, should learn that the cit
liens of this country do not propose
to tamely sit by and see their land
become, through their acts, as those
from whence they have emigrated.
That while America is for more than
Americans, it is to be by the bless
ing of God, as thoroughly and truly
American in sentiment and action as
when it successfully declared itself
to he free and independent state.
This is nation of American citizens
with American ideas, aims and pur-
poses, and not petty off-shoot of
Ireland, France, Germany, Italy,
with Irish, French, German and Ital-
ian ideas of self government. Emf
grants from these and all other lands
must conform to the laws of this land
and not the people of this country t(
) those from whence they came.-Pres

May prove to be n GOdsend and a BJessim;

Last year Lieut.. Moxie and some friends acct
dentaly discovered harmless, tasteless plant, in
the South American Province of "Mateo Crosse"
that had been generally used fodder. Some of
the women there used it do catnip tea. 1t
had such a remarkable effect some of the weakly
members of the party, they brought large bale to
the United States. 1t tested by leading physi-
clans who find it the best nerve food yet
discovered. 1t made nervous, exhausted people
strong and hearty at once, without showing the
least stimulating effect reaction and recovered a
number of old cases of helpless paraly and even
insanity, caused by nervous exhaustion. But its
most remarkable characteristic is it takes away the
appetite for liquor at once and completely. In Low
ell, Mass, where it first tested, hundreds of old
drunkards have been cured by it, and they say it
leaves solid, pleasurable effect the ner-
vOus system, and no reaction. 1t is very popular
with weakly, overworked people, who say they can
endure twice their usual labor when taking it, with
less fatigue 1t brings sweet, refreshing sleep and
good appetite. Its reputation is spreading like
| wildfre. 1t stopped half the liquor trade in Lowell
the first six months. The rum dealers at first fought
it, but selling it, getting good profit a.
on liquor. The church and clergy advocating
| its to fight the rum trade. 100000 bottles were
| used in Lowell the first six months, and they arr
| still taking it than ever. 1t is cropping on
| here in the drug stores. 1t is called ''Moxie Nerv
| Food"
