Live and Let Live.

A FARM BALLAD.

Well ! Farmer Smith has lost his wheat his shed and mammoth barn ;

His little boy, with one small match, burnt up the whole concern ;

I'll tell you wife, he'll feel it sore a man on money bent,

Can’t stand up under such a load when not insured a cent.

I don’t know as I pity him ; I call ita great sin

To hoard the harvest of three years in spacious barn and bin ;

I can’t feel pity for a man who doubly locks his door,

And stops his ears to all the cries that come up from the poor.

I like to see economy ; I like to see men save,

And lay up something for their kin when they are in the grave ;

But you and I know very well, from what we both have seen,

There is a line which, when ’tis crossed, a man gets to be mean.

When wheat was sixteen shillings—a « price that paid us well— Smith said [Jl wait for twenty, 1 vow before VU sell. Then when it reached that figure, he said to me one noon, ‘I guess I'll hold it longer, ’twill be three

dullars soon.’

He held it and he run in debt for things to wear and eat ;

When merchants dunned him, he would say, ‘ Wait till I sell my wheat.’

Soon that old tune got fiddled out and men

began to sue, And he began to borrow to pay accounts

long due.

When Smith goes off to by a thing he spins around the town,

And tries with all his might and main the price to banter down ;

When he has anything to sell ‘tis priceless in his eyes,

And he must have the highest price—the lowest when he buys.

‘ Live and let live’ are golden words ; the other motto, too,

‘Do unto others as you'd wish that they would do to you.’

If Smith had done as they command he would not have to-day

The ashes of three harvests to load and draw away.

Wife, if you take a berry and dry it in the sun,

‘Twill shrivel up till it takes two to make the size of one ;

So many a man in grasping gain, so shrivels up his soul

That will ne’er expand again while life’s years over him roll.

God bless the farmers of our land! They are not all like him,

Who walks around the smouldering pile now in the twilight dim ;

Living on God’s broad acres, their souls ex- pand and grow,

Their ears are ever open to tales of want and woe.

God bless the men, where’er they are, in country cr in town,

Who do not think it’s life’s great work to crowd their neighbors down ;

This world would be better, this life would pleasure give,

If every man who toils to live would let his brother live.

Starting a Boy.

A lonesome-looking boy was yesterday hanging around a wood-yard in the northern part of the city, when the owner of the yard, having both charity and phil- anthrophy for boys with tears in their eyes, asked the lad why he didn’t peddle apples or do something to earn a few shillings. The boy replied that he had no capital, and the wood-yard man took out a nickel and said:

“Now, my boy I’m going to start you in life. Take this nickel and go and make a purchase of something or other.’ lll buy it of you for ten cents, no mat- ter what it is. Come, now, let’s see what sort of a business head you have on

ou,”

The boy took the nickel and went off, but in ten mioutes was back with a galloa jug which he had purchased with the nickel.

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 ihe globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. MELVIN’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 thése plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. Al) 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 ‘nsiant oue is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and 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 cures effected by Dr. MeLvin’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTreRS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, 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 a certain cure, ask your druggist for

R. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM PoROUS PLASTER,

?

“Well. you are-a keener,” replied the! man. “I never saw one of those sold for: less than fifteen cents to any one. I want such a jug and here’s its fair price. | Go now and lay out your fifteen cents in’ apples and I'll buy half your stock.”

The boy did not return. Perhaps he fell into a sewer somewhere; but you can’t make the wood-yard man believe so. When he lifted up the jug from! under the table where the boy had care- fully placed it he found a hole in the bottem large enough to let ina black and. tan terrior.— Detroit Free Press.

You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person 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 gli hundreds to your friends.
