Poor Farmers.

The poor farmer will always be a
poor man. He cannot help it. A
poor business man is poor; he loses
more than he makes and the thou
sands of bankrupt traders are the
poorbusiness men who are careless, ir-
regular, wasteful, and always behind
hand in time and opportunity. The
most frequent cause of farmers fail
ure to 90 well-he can scarcely fail
completely-is his dilatory way OF
doing things.

Don't Despair.

How many yield to the pitiful OBJ
stacles andpetty glooms. How many
whose instincts are to dependency
while there are sources of cheer left
how many, who despair without an
appeal to hope. Do these know the
proverbs founded in wisdom-"it is
always darkest just before day.
"Therei is no night without morning."
there's silver lining to every
ud,"-"wait and the storm will
pass,"-"trust in God doing your
duty, and fear not the worstw 1t is
not only cowardly, it is wicked, to
despair. While there is life there is
hope, and woe unto him who plucks
out his life as a refuge from despair.

Little Sins.

A little hole in ship will sink it {;
a small breach in a sea-bank carries
all away before it; little stab in the
heart kills man; and a little sin, as
it is often improperly called, tends to
his final destruction. Whatever sin
the heart is prone to, that the devil
will help forward. a little drop has
been many a mans ruin every

saving the lives of the third generation
who have come into being since it was
first offered to the public.
There is not household in which this
invaluable remedy has once been in

who has ever given it . proper trial
for any throat or lung disease suscep-
tible Of cure, who has not been made

AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has,
I'm numberless instances, cured obstinate
cases of chronic Bronchitis, Laryngitis,
and even acute Pneumonia, and has
saved many patients in the earlier stages
of Pulmonary Consumption. 1t is a
medicine that only requires to be taken in
small doses, is pleasant TO the taste, and is
needed in every house where there are
children, as there is nothing so good as.

1t is not to be expected that the class Of
people who shout the meaningless slang,
chestnut or still more silly, dingle a toy
bell which they carry with them whenever
they hear a remark which they imagine is not
brand new, will pay much heed to a quotation
from Goethe. But there are Others of intelli
gencc who are affected by the incessant cry
for novelty that may read with profit the fol-
lowing reflections by the great philosopher:
People are always talking about originality;
but what do they meant As soon as we are
born the world begins TO work upon us, and
this goes OIL TO the end. And after all, what
can We call our own, except energy, strength
ard willf If l could give an account of all

Evarts, but without that persuasive, intense
style which makes Mr.. Evarts power before
a jury. He is somewhat quick tempered,
and a number Of good stories are told at his
expense. Once he went into a lawyers Office
in New York and borrowed new legal work
for reference, but finding several advertising
passages inserted at the end where the index
should have been, he torethem out in disgust,
saying: They amt law, and no man has a
right to force his wares upon you"
On another occasion, when he was going
from Newark to Trenton to argue case,
his wife stopped him at the door and begged
him to go up stairs and put on a new pair Of
pantaloons in place of the old ones which he
had OIL He reluctantly did so, but when he
hurried to the depot be was a moment or two
late for the train Returning TO his house,
he went up stairs, put on his old pantaloons
again, and taking the new ones which had
caused the trouble he tore them into half q
dozen pieces without saying uord.-Ben:
