does thia expression that We hear - BO
often meen?* ? asked a yoong . lady
and her answer waa, ? Oh, one that can
Slat, and sing, and draw, and make
erself generally agreeable."> Good
things all ol them, I thought; but ara
they; what David means when he says,
"Oar daughter . shall be like. corner?
stones, polished Sf ter the similitude of
a palaoel" We are living in a time
when external accomplishments am easi?
ly obtained... Valuable they are indeed,
in many ways, but but may we not,
while giving them foll creon, for the
good they may do if rightly used, ask
ourselves, . 'Arethere not accomplish?
ments of the heart for which we should
strive with greater zeaL" Aoorner-stone
gives us cn idea, ot something upon
which the whole depends, that keeps it
together ss it were. . . Now, no poliah that
polite ?*oMety or artificial sooompliah
ment can give will tend to keep our
homes together, and make ns worthy
to be depended upon as having ? heart
gtven to the Lord, that seeks thehap
piness and pleasure of others, ?'rom
snob, a heart will come octa that cannot
fail to win more sincere love and admi?
ration thun any external graoe or eul
ture.
The besetting evil of our age is the
temptation to squander and dilute
thought on a thousand different lines of

rlonsly preval?a in all parts , of the United

for twenty years, and it ia still extending. It
is not the result of credulity; it has not been
engendered by any human device, but lt is
the spontaneous and natural oonsequenee of
experieneo. What people BOB daily going on
under their own eyea they cannot question.
When families in unhealthy diatriets, that re?
sort to this wholesome vegetable tonio as a
preventive, escape periodical fevers, and
their immodiate neighbors, who neglect that
Erooaution, are prostrated by the disease,
ow is it possible that the phenomenon should
be without ita lesson. In like manner, when
it ls seen that obstinate cases of dyspepsia,
of liver complaint, of constipation, of nervous
weakness, and uf general debility, yield io ?he
operation of the famous remedy, how oma
even incredulity itself withhold its endorse?
ment? Eye-witnosaes of the salutary effects
of the Bitters, are to be found in every civil?
ized settlement on this oontiuont. The thou?
sands upon thousands who owe their restora?
tion to health and strength, or their preserva?
tion from sickness to its extraordinary medi?
cinal properties, are enthusingtio in its praiae.
The multitudes who reoommend it in a neigh?
borly way to their friends and aoqaaintanoes,
as well aa thoso who make public their esti?
mate of its virtues, are always ready to state
their reaeons for the faith that is in them.

vent dandruff; to promote the growth of the
Bair and stop its falling oat. I* is EnnBjrj/r
rTfrMft.sss and perfectly free from any poison?

place of all the dirty and unpleasant prepara?
tions now in nee. Numerous testimonials
have' been sent ns from many of our' most
Srominent citizens. In everything in which
lie articles now io ase ore objectionable.
Crystal Discovery is perfect. It la warranted
to oontain neither Sugar of Lead. Sulphur or
Nitrate of Silver. It does not soil the olothes
or scalp, is agreeably perfumed and makes
one of the best dressings for the Hair In use.
It restores the oolor oz the Hair "more per
feot and uniformly than any other prepara?
tion," and always does so in from threo to ten
days, virtually feeding the roots of the Hair
with all the nourishing qualities necessary to
its growth and healthy condition; it restores
the deoayed and induces a new growth of tho
Hair more positively than anything else. The
I aoolleation of this wonderful discovery also
' produces a pleasant and cooling effect on the
scalp, and gives the Hair a pleasing and ele?
gant appearance.
We call especial attention to tho fact that a
limited number of small trial bottles can be
bad by those wishing to try it. You will no?
tice that in pursuing this course, oar sim is

AFEW reasons why they should have the
preference over all others:
1. Wheeler A Wilson's Sewing Machine is
much simpler thad any of the others; re?
quiring loss than half the amount of ma?
chinery.
2. As the result of this simplicity, this ma?
chino is much loss liable than tbe others to
get out of repair.
3. Another result of this simplicity is
greater dnrability.
4. Another result is less friction and, con?
sequently, greater ease and rapidity of mo?
tion, with lesB noise.
5. And greatest of all, that it usos no Shut?
tle, and makes the look stitch.
It is the oheapest to bny the beat. Buy the
machino that has justly,fairly and honora?
bly won a reputation and independence
against a strong and bitter competition. For
more than twenty years has tbe Wheeler A
Wilson not only stood first and foremost, but
now stands the unrivalled Sewing Machine ot
the enlightened civilized world, buy the ma
ohino thal ha6 b6on thus tested and proved,
and then yon are sure to got the best. For
