Inconsistent Teeth.

The inconsistent teeth are small and even, often brilliantly white, but wide 1y separated. Each tooth has a we'll de- fined space between it and it's neighbor. Usually in men small, straight nose and weak chin are seen with these teeth. The lips may be well formed, but will frequently be thin, and the mouth, in smiling, forms an oblique line, showing the glittering white teeth. The possess or is by nature treacherous, inconsistent in his affections, will turn on woman or attack a weaker man. He will never meet a man of his own size in an en- counter and will stab in the dark or work through third party. Henry Irv- ing makes his mouth up after this type for his wonderful Mephisto and accen- tuates the cruelty of its lines by the wicked arch to his eyebrows. | CiEv Times

John Thomas.

'He was perfect servant to very imperfect master" wrote an English sportsman of his negro henchman, John Thomas, who had been his right hand man during five years wandering in South Africa.
 When Dr. Livingstone and MT. Os- well, the hunter, made their journey in search of Lake Ngami, they held out the inducement to their followers that if they were successful they would not at tempt to press on farther. But success bred ill the explorers the wish to do more, and though they were bound to stand to their agreement they called a meeting of their servants and put the case before them.
 No one would be asked to accompany the two white men, who had decided to push on farther, but if any one was will ing to do so they would be very glad. Those who wished to return home would be supplied for the journey. For few mtHutes there was silence. Then out stepped John and said:
 sWhat you eat can eat; where you sleep l can sleep; where you go will go. will come with you. :"
 The effect was instantaneous. "We will all go!' was the cry. "Do you think, after that, ,' writes Mr. Oswell in telling the incident, "it was much matter to us whether our brother was black or white?'

 There is one medicine which every fam fly should be provided with. We refer to Chamberlain's Pain Balm. When it is kept at hand the severe pain of burn or scald may be promptly relieved and the sore healed in much less time than when medicine has to be sent for A sprain may be promptly treated before inflamma- tion sets in, which insures cure in about one-third the time otherwise required. Cuts and bruises should receive immedi- ate attention, before the parts become swollen, and when Chamberlain's Pain Balm is applied it will heal them without matter being formed, and without leaving a scar. A sore throat may be cured: in one night. A piece of flannel dampened with this liniment and bound on over the seat of pain, will cure lame back or pain in the side or chest in twenty-fouI hours. It is the most valuable, however, for rheumatism. Persons afflicted with this disease will be delighted with the prompt relief from pain which it affords, and it can be depended upon to effect complete cure. For sale by W. w. Lathrop, Staf- ford Springs; c. L. Phillips, South Gov entry.

Il. A pastor once said to me, 1T can. not oppose the saloons actively, for if ] did l could no longer enter them freely in evangelistic work as am now accustom- ed to do to invite young men to the Say jour-"
 He liked to do evangelistic work better than he liked.to make it easy for young men to do right; to snatch few from the burning rather than to put out the confiagration.
 12. II am so undecided as to what are the best methods for this reform, am studying the subject"
 And meantime every year the thousands are perishing. All the rummies desire is that we maintain 8 splendid inactivity They don't care for our opinions or our quiescent studying, if that is all.
 13. believe in temperance, of course, but the church is all that have time for''
 That is the saddest excuse of all. The saddest thing we mortals can do is to cru cify the Master in the name of the Master. It is as if we said, "I am to busy praying to obey. I'm too much engaged in wOr- ship to help the needs of my suffering fellow man who perishes beside me-"
 IA. 'I would be glad to have something done to stop this saloon iniquity, but am too busily occupied with my business to give it any time."
 And that is all that the devil asks of the best of us-iust to attend to our own pri- vate affairs, and he will attend to the in- iquities of the world-that is his business. That is all the liquor traffic asks of us. And until we have time that we will spare from our business to attend to this work things will be as they are, and worse.

 No mystery about it. When the Shak- CTS offered some time ago to give away a bottle of their Digestive Cordial to any one who might call at their New York office, there was a great rush, and 8 great many people thought they were crazy.
 Subsequent events prove it to have been a very clever advertising transac- tion, for, although they gave away thous- ands of bottles, it was in the end prof1ta- able nearly every one that took free bottle came back for more and paid for it with pleasure, saying they had derived better results from it's use than from any other medicine they had ever used.
 There is nothing so uniformly success ful in the treatment of stomach troubles as the Shakers Digestive Cordial, and
