Golden Words.

He who swears distrusts his own words, A man can borrow trouble without giving security

Be great in act, as you have been in thought.—[SbaKspe re" The cleaner oujr lives the lnoregaugels will visit us —[Brick Pomeroy.

Were saints their own carvers, taey would soon cut their own Sogers, The man who never alters his opinion ts like standing water and breeas rep tiles in the mind.

If we look upon life as a gift of days one at a time, all .its duties can be done, all its burdens borne.

It is sweeter and nobler to forgive an hundred wrongs thaii to commit 0110. [Brick Fomoroy.'

It you intend t'o'do a m«'an thing, wait till to-morrow. If you are to*do a noble thing, do it now.

As daylight can be seen through very small hiles, so little things will illustrate a person's character.

All that poets 'sinfe and grief hath known or hopes laid waste, knells in that word "alone.'VtBulwer Lytton.

I know of two beautiful things—the starry heavens above my head, and the sense ol duty within my heart.—[Kant.

Joining a church no4more saves a soul than joining a tire company extinguish es a lire.—[Brick Pouieroy.

The sunshine we throw into the lives of others lights the ^way direct to the gardens of Got!.—[Brick Pomeroy.

The person who pufs the most temptations under his feet lifts'himself nearest the augels.—[Brick Pemeroy.

Death is no more than going from one room to another—in to »dirt or neatness, according as we liavp lived.—[Brick Pomeroy.

A lovely countenance |s the fairest of all sights, and the sweetest harmony is the sound of the voice of her whom we love.—[Bruyoro.

Never was a sincere wefd utterly lost, nover a magnanimity fell to thi ground there is some heart alwavd to greet and accept it unexpectedly.

There are four good mothers who have four bad daughters: Truth hath ha tred prosperity hath pride security hath peril, and familiarity hath contempt.

I look upon an able statesman out of business like a huge whale, that will endeavor to overturn the ship unless he has an empty cask to ilay with.— [Steele.

Virtue is a service a man owes himself, and though there were no heaven nor nny God to rule the world, it were not less the binding law of life. It is a man's privilege to know thi right and follow it.—[The Hindu Scripturcs. -4.

To bles'God for mercies, is the way to increase them to bless him for miseries, is the way to remove therii. No good lives so long as that which is thankfully improved no evil dies so ?aon as that which is patiently endured.

Christians should live in the world, but not be tilled with it.

ship lives

in the water,but,if tlie water gets in to the ship, she goes to the bottom. So Christians may livo in the world but if the world gets into them, they sink.—

Moody I Reasoning against a prejudice is like tlghting against a shadoow it exhausts the reasoner without visibly affecting the prejudice. Argument cannot do the work of instruction any more than blows can take the place of sunlight.— [Chns. Mild may, I. 1).

The Christian maxim, to do as you would be done by, requires a great deal of imagination to carry it out thoroughly for the difficulty is, not so much in subduing seltlshticss, as in imagining

If?'

the circumstances In which yonr neigh pnr he would wish and might fairly ask of

reciating what

bor is placed, and so a uld wish and you.—(Arthur Helps.

LOOK OUT, YOUNG MEN. When it is said of a man, "He drinks," and it can be proven, what store wants him for a clerk What church wants him for a member? Who will trust him? What dying man will appoint him his executor? He may have been forty years In building bis reputation— It dowrn. 1 am tors of recommend* lion, the backing of business firms, a brilliant ancestry cannot save him. The world shiesorf. Why? It is whispered all through the community, "Ho drinks, he drinks." When a young man looses his reputation for sobriety, he might as well be at the bottom of the sea. There aro young men who havo their good name as their only capital. Yonr father has started you out in city llf». He could not give you an education. He started you, however, under Christian influences. You havo come to the city. You are now achieving yonr own fortuno under God, by your own right arm. Now look out, young man, that there is no doubt of your sobriety. Do not create any suspicion by going in and out of liquor establisnments, or by any odor of your breath, or by any glare of your eyes, or by any unnatural flush of your cheek. You cannot afford to do it, your good name is yonr only capital, and when that is blasted with the reputation of taking strong drink all is gone.

CURE FOR COCKROA CHES.

A Suggestion for the Indianapolis City Librarian.

The disagreeable odor which the cockroach emits, and which soon permeates all places that it inhabits, proceeds from a dark colored fluid which it dischaages from the mouth. The cockroach loves warmth and moisture hence its popu iousness in kitchens where tire ana wi ter are almost ever present. It is a night

fairs

rowler,

and swarms out from its secret on the departure of daylight. For the destruction of the cockroach we recommend a mixture containing a tablespoonful of red lead, the same amount of Indian meal with molasses enough to make a thick batter. Set this on a plate at night in places frequented by the insects, and all that eat of it will be poisoned. Another preparation is composed of one teaspoonful of powdered arsenic, with a tablespoonful of mashed potato. Crumble this evorv night at bed time where he insects will find it, and it is said to be an effectual poison. Great care should be exeroised jn the use of such dangerous agents. An iiiHocent method »f destroying cockroaches is to place a bowl or basin containing a little molasses on the floor at night. A bit of wood, resting one end ou tho floor and the other on "the edge of the vessel, serves as a bridge to conduct the insects to the sweet deposit. Once in the trap its slippery sides prevent retreat, and thus cockroaches may be caught by the thousand. »,

A KIND OLD LADY?"

THE LAST WORD.

The last word is the most dangerous of infernal machines. Husband and wife should no more fight to get it than they would struggle for the possession of a bombshell. Married people should study each other's weak points, as skaters look out for weak parts of the ice, in order to keep off them. The wife is tho sun of the social system. Unless she attracts, there is nothing to Jceep heavy bodies, like husbands^ from fly ing into space. Sugar is the substance most universally diffused through the natural products. Let married people take a hint from this provision of nature and act accordingly.—[Baltimore Gazette.

LAST Sunday two girls pupils of an Illinois seminary, were about leaving their room for church, when a dispute ar seas to which had occupied the most time in dressing. The discussion waxing warm, a bet was made, to be decided on the spot, and three eirls were called in as judges. The contestants removed all their clothing and at the call of "time" sprang to the contest. For a few moments the air seemed filled with flying bits of feminine drapery—shoes, stockings, garters, etc.—and the winner was all "hooked up" and bad her bon net on in seven minutes and thirteen seconds, the other girl coming out less than half a minute behind.

FINI out what your specialty is and stick to it like wax. Not one man in a million can do more than one thing well, provided he can do anything well.

Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy Is no patent medicine bumbag, got up to dupe the ignorant and credulous, nor is represented as being "composed of rare and precious substance* brought fn»m the four corners of the earth, carried seven times across the great*des?rt of Sahara on the backs of fourteen camels, and brought across the Atlantic ocean on two ships." It in a simple, mild soothing remedy, a perfect specific for Catarrh and "cold in the head also for offensive breath, losa or impairment of the sense of smell, taote, or hearing, watery or weak eyes, pain or pressure in the head, when caused, as they all not onfrequently are by the violence of Catarrh.

There is a kind-hearted o.d lady who lives in Louisville, and she passes her time in the street-son the lookout for ladies whoso skirts are coming down. Sometimes her anxiety leads her astray, and she sees in imagination skirts falling which are really perfectly secure. But she sweetly says all the same, "My dear, your &kirt is fallinig if you will step into this doorway I will pin it up for you." Ladies in "general object to falling skirts in the streets the very theughtia a terror, and, when so approached, are very apt to go into the doorway without looking as to tho truth. When tnere the kind old woman tells the woman she is so kind aprotty story of her nico home, #ives a suggestion that she is well off in this world's goods, and that she wanted to fix the skirts brcause the' lady's beautiful face reminded her of her own daughter. During the fixing process the dress is necessarily handlea, and though the work is awkward it would not of course do to oftor money to the nice, well-at-tired, kind-hearted old lady, who talks so glibly of her property. So the other lady leaves with gratitude, which is changed to a somewhat ditterent feeling when she finds her pocket has been cut, and has gone away with her purse.

Puriffug the Blood. This compound of the vegetn ble alter atives, Sarsaparilla,

Dock, StilliHeia and Afandrake with the Iodides of Potassiim andiron makes a most etfeptual cure of a series of complaints which are very prevalent and afflicting. It ipurifles the blood, purg

Eruptions of the skin are tho appearance on the surface of humors that should be expelled from the blood. Internal derangements are the determination of these same humors to some Internal organ, or organs, whose action they derange, and wliov substance they disease and destroy. Aykit's SAKHAi'AIUI.A expels these humors from the blood. When they are gone, the disorders they produce disappear, such as Ulccrrltion* of the Liver, Stomach, Kulnryx, Lnnus, Eruption* and Kruptive ftixeanc* of the Skin, St. Anthony'» Fire, Jione or JSrwtipcla* Pimple*, Puxtiiles, Jilotchet, /toil*.
