You will have to do this probably not more than three times. Lt will fly among your aquaintances on the wings of the gossips, and persons who come to talk against other persons In your presence will begin to feel as uf they were testify ing under oath,

But you ask, “W ill it not oo to go olf and detail conversation © 4 ot at all, when your interlocutor under- stands that he must not talk against an absen| person in your presence without expecting you to convey the words to the absent one, and the name ol the speaker. Moreover, what right has any man or woman to approach you and bind you to secrecy, and then poison your mind ayainst another? tt there be avy diiference in your obligations, are you hove bound more to the man who is absent than the man who is pre- | sent? If you can thus help to kill gossip, it will not matter if you lose a f-iend or two; such frieads as these, who talk against others to you, are the very persons to talk against you to them. i :

avy our rule. We know it to be good. We useit. Itis known in the caurch of which we are pastor, that if any one speaks disparagingly of an ab- s‘nt member, we hold it our duty to go t) the absent member immediately and report the conversation and the names ; ©: still better, to make the party dis-

yaraging face the party disparaged.

Ve have alinost none of this to do. Amid the many annoyances which ne- c2ssarily come ‘to the pastor ofa large ec urch, and still larger congregation, we think we are as free from the annoy- ance of gossips as it is possible for a min who lives among his fellow-men.

{vy our rule, try it faithfully, with meekness and charity, and if it does not work well, let us know it.—fev.

(CAPSICUM)

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. M@LViN’s Capsicum Porous PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried. and that one of these plasters will do more rea) service than a hundred of the ordinary kind, All other plasters are slow of action. and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested an well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELvINn’s Capsicum Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescer them, in their practice, for such diseases rheumatisin, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want acertain cure, ask -your druggist for

IR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM Porous PLASTER, You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Alihongh powerfn) and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety foi the most delicate —e to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for DR. MELVIN’s CAPSI- cumM Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, te any address in the United States or Canadas,
