DISCIPLIN &.

‘ Hear ye the rod and whe hath appoint- ed it.”—-Micah vi. 9.

Loving correction, Lord, we humbly seek,

For we are sinful, wandering, and weak ;

Left to ourselves, our feet would go astray

From heavenly Wisdom’s straight and nar- row way.

But Thon art holy, patient, wise, and just, Knowing our frame ; rememb’ring we are : dust ;

Help us to ‘* hear,” and rightly understand The “ rod,” as held by Thine Almighty hand.

It smote the ‘‘ Man of Sorrows,” whom we see

Led to Gethsemane and Calvary,

\ great example ho come down to give,

And by His death upon the cross, we live.

Some secret purpose has to be fulfilled,

Some lesson to be tought, or murmuring stilled ;

The purpose may be long, the mystery great,

But while the Father works, the child must wait.

To rise uncalled ; to flee when unpursned ;)

Ofttimes ensures lasting disquietude ;-

Just as the willow-twig, at rest before,

Touches the running stream, and rests no more.

All God’s designs hold blessings in suspense,

Which, falling, turn-the wheel of Provi- dence, ’

And thus things hidden long are brought to light,

And many who have suffered wrong get right.

The hill of Zion shall be reached at last, When through the vale of Baca we have passed ; Our harps will be attuned, and many a lay Learnt in the night be sung in endless day. London Guardian.

How a Man Does It.

Did you ever watch a man trying on a hat? He takes one from the counter and) looks carefully at the lining. Then he steps cautiously to the looking glass and takes off his old tile. He holds it care. fully in his left hand as though fearful of losing it. Theo he places the new one on his head, frent side behind, and sur- veys himself in the glass. He gives his lread a shake to see if the hat will fall off and then settles it more firmly on his head, looking all the while as though hehad beea sheepstealing. He looks profound- ly ashamed of himseif. Then he sudden- ly perceives that the hat is reversed and as suddenly takes it off, and replaces his old one. On pretext of examining the texture be turns the hat about and again removing his old one, and replaces it on his head. Another shake, and a supreme effort not to look fvolish. He steps back a step, gives his head another shake and another pull at the brim ; looks sidewise, takes the hat off, putting on the old one and looks at the crown. Puts it on again, all the time clinging tightly to\

muap~antee:

‘the old hat and gives still another shake, tells the keeper what kind of a hat hisj .

wife told him to get. After a dozen mancurres of this kind he at length sur- renders his old hat to be rolled up while a bland smile and a sigh of relief escapes him as he steps out wondering if anybody is looking at him.

Tom's Gortp Dust.—‘That boy khows how to take care of his gold dust,” said Tom’s uncle often to himself, and sometimes : loud.

Tom went to college, and every acconnt they heard of him he was going ahead, laying a foundation for the future.

“Certainly,” said his unele, “certainly ; that boy I tell you, knows how to take care of his gold-dust.”

“Gold-dust.’”” Where did Tom get gold-dnst ? He wasapoor boy. He had never been to Calliforaia: He never was a miner. Where did he get the gold-dust ? Ah?! he has seconds and minutes, and these are the gold-dust of time which people are apt to waste and throw away. Tom knew their valuc. His father had taught him that every particle of time was worth its weight in gold; and his son took care of them as if they were.

A Sunday school teacher, who was ac- eustomed to giving her scholars a verse to learn each week, varied her usage one Sunday, by allotting to each ot her schol- ars three names to commit to memory. One little five-year old boy, who had ‘for his lesson the names “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego,”’ when asked to repeat it it on the following Sunday, scratehed his head, threw up his eyes, and timidly re- plied, “Stake the bed, Make the bed, an-i To bed we go.”

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

There nover has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has deen caused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of tho globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

DR. MELVIN’s CApsicuM Porovs 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 real 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.

Physiciansin all ages hayo thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or Jess used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in @ porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful cures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CarsicUM Porous Prasters, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, po in the side and back, and all such ecasesas have required the use of plasters or liniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and

you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for yR. MELVIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerful and . quick im its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate porran 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 sell hundreds re To friends.

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