Yes,- What is the Matter. _
What is the matter with the human
race? What obliquity is it that induces -
people to tell lies out of which they
can get no possible bone t? Are „the
naajerity of people- Conacionsly mixerseions, or are they really the dupes Of
their senses! " I said in my wrath all
men are liars." Perhaps he might have
said it coolly and witn seienutie pre-
cision. Peruaps it is a question of phy-
siology rather than of morals. The
human. frame is acknowledged to be a"
wonderful ptece of mechanism. The
Psalmist admired inbut it puazIed.him.
If he heti been, a scientist he would
have been able to give physiological'
reasons for the opinion that there is _not
one perfect mara—no, not one. Scarcely
& perfect woman. It is known that
two people do not see the same thing
alike, and consequently they deacribe it
differently. They do not bean the same
statement alike, and they always repeat
with variations. Of all witnesses the
eye is the least traetworthy. It appears
to be the most subject to delueions.
There is a reason for this. No two
persons have eyes alike. The two eyes
in one head are seldom alike; if they
match in color, they are differeat in
form, different in focus. Not one ,eye
in ten millions is in a normal, perfect
condition. The focus is either bobbed
the retina or itt front of it, and. the -eye
is either near-sighted or far-sighted.
What can be expected of such an im-
perfect organ in the way of correct cb-
eervistion ? It appeara to be still worse
with, the ear. It is at best a crooked
organ, and nearly everything that
passes through it gets a twist. And
these two defective machines are allied
.with piobably the most deceitful little
member that ever was—the tongue;
The effort of the tongue to put into
f ound and speech the so-called impres;
agons obtained through the complicated
ruechanism of the eye and the ear is a
Inclierone failure. Any one who is
familiar with a court of justice or neigh-
borhood talk knowg that, And owing
to the sympathy of one part of the body
with another; the thinnb and the fore
and middle fingers (which hold the pen)
become infected. Bat thin obstacle in
the way of writing dbes not cheek the
tendency to prevarieate any more than
stutternag does iu the case of the ton-
gue ; and it is just as difficult for a
sibutterer to speak the truth as for a
glib -tongued persou. The consequence
of this infection of the pan fingers is
that what is not strictly true now, arid
then creeps into priut. People are be-
ginning to find oat this physical -defect,
and many persoas now will not believe
what they read in the newspapers any
more than if it were told them by an
intimate friend. But they read it and
repeat it; and owing to the eye defects
before spoken of, they scarcely ever re-
peat it at; it is printed. So we will al
become involved in a congeries of nais-
representation. Sisters and brothers,
why are we made thus? You remember
the story told years ago about Henry
Ward Beecher. More than o,ne person,
atteadante upon. Mr. Beecher's churott,
known to- be person,' of character and
veracity, told the writer of this para-
graph, and deelared they told the exact
truth, that one hot Snuday morning
Mr. Beecher ascended hie pulpit, wip-
ing his fage, and when he stood up to
reach began with this sentence: " It
as as hot as h -1. --was the remark I
heard comiag in at the door.". This
was vouched for by. several trustworthy
persons who heard Mr. Beecher say it.
And yet Mr. Beecher never made any
-remark in the pulpit like that. He as.
nured the writer of this paragraph that
he never said anything like it; and his
denial was unnecessary. for the story is
a very old one, and is -related of Robert_
Hall, among others. It might have
1?eeri told of a priest of Jupiter, who
made that remark on ascending the
*taps of the temple of Rome, if the
pOpular notion of the temperature of
Hades had. been in Rama what it is in
Brooklyn of h-1. Sistere.and brothers,
what induced you to tell that stury'
&boat Beecher
Take another case. There is a story
is.bout a wedding trip that has been
knookirig about the country for some
time. It was first told by a clergymen
of strict temperance principles and high
chexanter —in. fact, a total abstainer—
who had it from a friend cd his, first
hand, who had just returned from the
West. This friend, mind youasaw and
heard what he related., and he was a
• person of undoubted veracity, though
perhaps as an abstainer, when travel-
ling, not so total as the clergyman. It,
was, in brief, to this effeet. In the car
011 a train from Toledo to Chicago was
a man who sat alone, looking abaently
out of the window, and appearing de-
jected. During the passage an accident
happened to a newsboy, and the gener-
ous passengers passed round the hat
for him. The solitary man alone of all
the careful refused to contribute aay-
thing, not even a .quarter. Somebody
remarked audibly upon his stinginess,
when he turned round and said;" Gen-
tlemen, it may appear strange to you
that I givenothhag ; but I havn't a cent
0 Money. The fact is, I was married
yesterday, and I am on my wedding
trip, and I hadn't money enongh to
bring my wife along."—,Harper's Mag-
azine.
Color of Horses an& Cattle.
Long experience in Ennland has
proved that brown colored. horses, snd
especially those of a tanned muzzle,
prove the hardiest. Next to these come
the darker shades orf bay. The same
has been found to be the case iu Ameri-
ca, and then follow the clear ',dapple -
gray. Other colors seem to be about
equally hardy, although pure white and
red roan are considered the least so.
But we know horses of these two colors,
as well_ as others varying from the
first three above mentioned, to be per-
fectly hardy and enduring. As a rule,
it is the breed, coupled with the soil
and the food on which they are reared,
which make the difference in hardiness
and eudurance of horses, and the beg
of these should always be sought after
by breeder e and rearers.
• That was good seuse on Oat of the
judges on Jersey cattle exhibited at the
late show of the English Agricultural
Society, in paying particular attention
to the yellow poluts," as they, were
termed. A yellow skin and yellow in -
[Bide the ears, denotes, they said highly
colored cream," which is equal to
flaying rich, milk. Th(3 "black points,"
as so strenuously contended for by a
email party of English and American
breedersthey say denote nothing at all,
neither do- solid colors ; and it is an db
aardity to aseert that the animals thrif3
marked possess any superiority in the
dairy or otherwise. There are al ko
good and indifferent of all shade and
colors, whether these are solid or br k-
en, as is daily proved among the nu
erous herds of Jerseys, bred in their
own native island or in foreign co n•
tries —Philadelphia Press.,
• No Cause for Alarra.
Of course, any young mother ho
came across a newspaper paragra h,
headed n. New Facts About Babie "
would read it attentively. Equally of
course, she would be utterly puzzled on
coming to the end to imagine why so e
nevaaliscoveries itt connection with y.
drophobia should be so headed. "Wh re.
lies the connection," she would natur-
ally and indignantly ask herself' "e -

the editor of the provincial pape in
which the paragraph appeared has Not

most of them far-fetched, are addu ed,

If his novels 'sill not buy him chops nd

there is no financial encouragement in
this country for any man or woman to

Novels are, at present, the most pp-
ular form of literature, and when ti ey

Mistakes in Punctuation.
• Mistakes impunctuation, such as the
omission or misplacing ofa comriaa,
may cause serious alteration to the
sense of a passage. The contract made
for lighting the town of Liverpool by
wick lamps, during the year 1819 was
rendered void by the misplacing of a
comma in the advertisement, thus:
" The lamps at present are about 4050,
and have in general two spouts eabb,
composed of not less than twenty
thread t of cotton." The contractOrs
would have proceeded to furnish each
lamp with the said twenty threads ; bat
this beiug only- half the usual quantity,
.the cora wiesioners discovered that the
difference arose loom the comma fel:
lowing, iustead of preceding, the word
"each." In the foliowing inatance it
was no doubt a bachelor compositor who,
in settiug up the toast," Woman, with-
out her, man would be a savage I" got
the comma in the wrong place, and
made the sentence read, "Woman,
without her man, would be a savagl !"

Catarrh—a Ne4\Treatment
Perhaps the most extraordinary a c-
oma that has been achieved in mod rn
medicine has been attained by he
Dixon treatment for Catarrh. Out of
2,000 patients treated during the past
six months, fully ninety per cent. have
been cured of this stubborn malady.
This is none the less startling when it
is remembered that no five per cent.' of
patients presenting theraselves to the
regular practitioner are benefitted, while
the patent medicines and other adver-
tised cures never record a cure at all.
Starting with the claim now generally
believed by the most scientific men that
the disease i3 due to the presence of
living parasites in the tissue. Mr. Dixon
at Once adapted his caire to their exterm-
ivation—this accomplished, be claims
the Catarrh is practically cured, and
the permaneacy is unquestioned, as
cures effected by him four years ago
are cares still. No one else has ever ,
attempted te cure Catarrh in this man -
nen and no other treatment has ever
cured Catarrh, The application of the'l
remedy is simple, and can be doie at
home, and the Present seitS071 0 Abe'
year is the most favorable for a sp edy
and permanept cure, the majori yt of
cases oeing cured at one treat mit.

Trials of a Poor Scotch Laddie
• Our hero was born in Edinburgh in the year 1825, and his father, who was
in some way connected in Her Majesty's Navy, died, leaning him with no earth-
ly friend alone in the great metropolis of Scotland, a barefooted, penniless boy.
Nothing daunted, he still preserved a kind father's advice to be honest and in-
dustrious, and through time, by reading signs on .shop dOors and during nights
from pieces of newspapers picked up amongst his acquaintance, he acquired a
taste for study, and, as he, was dependent upon his own resources, he had to
accept work in a livery stable, but being saving, in a few years was able to pur-
chase a cart and horse. 'Ibis was his first step to fortune. He amassed in a
few years a considerable sum of money, with which he emigrated to America,
but exposure in his previous Vocation as cab driver, brought on an affection of
the luogs, baffling the best 'medical aid both in the Old Country and America;
Hits spirits were drooping, and • his wealth was beginn. g to dwindle down by
expenses in travelling fromi place to place after the best nedica1 aid. After ex-
hausting money on medicines he was in despair, when at old friend adviied him
to go to Canada, and try O. Dancan's Cough Syrup, w ich is a sure cure for
Colds, Coughs, Sore Throat, Hoarseness, Bronchitis and roup. He did as ad-
vised, was cured, and is now happy and prosperous. Suoli is life, and. if any one
thus afflicted 41nes life, procure the best Cough Syrup, viz.: C. Duncan's, at
