IN THE SURROGATE COURT of the County of Huron. The First Drink. Two boys atopped in front of saloon, and an old man standing, near listen0 to - what they said. "Let's go in emd take. it drink," said one of `them. " don't think we'd better," said his companion, " my father's terribly opposed to saloon's. I don't know what he'd ssy if he knew I'd been in one, and drank liquor there." "Just for the fun of the thing, you. know," urged his friend, "of course, we'd stop with, one drink. There couldn't be any harm in that." "My boys," said the old man coming up to them, you don't know what you're talking about. if you go in there and take one drink, you are not sure of stopping then. The chances are that you won't, for I tell you—and I know what I'm talking about, by a bitter experience—there's a, fascination about liquor that it takes a strong will to resist after the first taste of it, sometimes. Take the &it drink, and the way of the drunkard is open before you. Only those who let liquor entirely alone are safe. I know, for I've been a drunkard a good many years. I expect to be one till I die. I began by taking b, drink just as you propose to—" for fun "—but I didn't stop there, you see. Take the advice of a poor old wreck—and that is, never take the first drink." "You're right," said the boy who had proposed to visit the saloon, "1 thank you for your good advice, sir, and say, Tom, let ns promise each other never to take the first drink." "All right," said Tom, and the boys clasped hands on their pledge. " That's a good temperance society to be- long to," said the old man. "'I _wish I'd joined one like it when I was a boy."

Well, my boy was about twenty-one months old when I began to give him your System Renovator Improved and your Protein Resurgam. I gave him the medicine for about five in,onths aud then he was cured, and to -day I have as strong, and as good looking a bey as you would Wish to see, now three Years old. He was very troublesome from the time he was born, and nearly all the time, and !slept very little, and that -never soundly, not until he had taken your medicine for a short time. He used to go into convulsions three or four times a day from the time he was floe days old and then his head began to grow large, increasing in size all the time until the med- icine took effect. We sought medical aid from different doctors without any benefit, (one only relieved him some.) The size of the heaollbegan to diminish gradually, as he was getting cured of dropsy and of the water in the head. No other medicine was used but yours only, with the above men- tioned results. I trust other mothers will benefit from my boy's cure. The bottle of Renovator which I took myself has done me a great deal of good. From my very heart and that of a grateful mother, you will have my good wishes, wherever you may be, as long as you live. I remain, • Your true friend, MRS. ANDREW SMITH'. For sale by J. S.

He got ate quainted last year with a she -bear, who used to come to his house every day and walk into the kitchen for food for herself and her two eubs. The cubs never came. The keeper got on very intimate terms with the bear, who was always civil and well behaved, and would take food frorn his hand (without taking the hand). One day towards sunset the bear came to the ki(;chen, and having received her portion, she went out of the back door to carry it to her cubs. To her surprise and anger the cubs were there waiting for her. She laid down the food, and rushed at her infants and gave them a rousing spanking. "She did not cuff them; she spanked them," and then she drove them back into the woods, cuffing them and knocking them at every step. Wheu she reaohed the spot where she bad told them to wait, she left them there and returned to the house. And there she remained in the kitchen for two whole hours making the disobedient children wait for their food, simply to discipline them and teach them obedience. The explan- ation is very natural. When the bear leaves her young in a particular Place and goea in search of food for them, if they stray away, in her absence she haw great difficulty', in finding them. The mother knew thatlthe safety of her cubs and her own peace of mind depended upon strict discipline in the fam- ily. Oh that we had more such mothers in the United States.—Harper's Magazine. 4 Latighter. There ought to be societies formed for the encouragement of laughter. A real laugh is not common, for it must be remem- bered that a Snicker is net a laugh: For- eigners travelling in this country have more than once commented upon the singular gravity)of Americans as a race. The Puritans were inclined to frown upon laughter as frivolous, and therefore. wicked. Life was a• very grave affair. to them, an almost continual struggle for ex- istence, and they had no time to make merry. The first two centuries of our na- tional life were busy years. Privations were many, and the Indians were almost continually on the warpath, It is no won- der our forefathers enjoyed a hearty laugh. Then. came the Revolution, which was cer- tainly no laughing matter. Perhaps all these wars, troubles, and pri- vations may haen flied gravity in their na- tional heart. Thep it may be that the iden was widely entertained that it was undignified to laugh. We know that the eyes of the world are upon us, and it would never do to act like children. Philosophers and cynics sneer at laughter. Goldsmith, (who was always laughing) tells us of "the laugh that spoke the vacant mind" and the scornful Byron says : "And if I laugh at any moral thing, 'tie that I may not weep." Many people are afraid to laugh because they think it common; so they repress their merriment with a smile. They do wrong. Nature evidently in- tended us to laugh, or children would not know how. Laughter is healthful, and pro- vocatious of good morals as well as of good health. Hamlet says that "one noay smile, and smile, and be a villain," and so one might; but no one could laugh and laugh, and be a villain. To smirk; grin, guffaw, or smile, is not to laugh. A good, whole-souled, hearty laugh is a panacea for many ills, and worth a doe. ter's prescription.—Golden Days. • Varieties. A Man of no Principal—A bankrupt. —The Most Likely Thing to Become a.

For Five Months he was Helpless and En- dured Agonizing Pains—could neither Rise up nor Sit Down without Aid—He Tells how he Found a Cure. From the Tilsonburg Observer. The Rev. C. H. Backhue is a resident of Bayham township, Elgin county, Ontario, and there is probably no person in the county who is better known or more highly esteemed. He is a minister of the United Brethren Church. He also farms . quite ex- tensively, superintending the work and do- ing quite a share of it himself despite his advanced age. But he was not always able to exert himself as he can to -day, as a few years ago he urrderwent an illness that many feared would terminate his life. To a re- porter who recently had a conversation with him, the Rev. gentleurian gave the par- ticulars of his illness and cure with per- mission to make the statement public. The story as told by Rev. Mr. Backhus is sub- stantially as follows: About three years 'ago he was taken ill and the doctor who was called in pronounced his trouble an at- tack of lo. grippe. He did not appear to get any better and a, second doctor was called in, but with no more satisfac- tory results, so far as a renewal of health was concerned. Following the la grippe pains of an excruciating nature lo- cated themselves in his body. He grew weaker and weaker until at last he was perfectly helplese. - He could not sit down nor rise from a sitting posture without as- sistance and when with this assistance he gained his feet he could hobble but a few steps when he was obliged to be put in a chair again. For five months these agon- izing pains were endured. But at last re- lief so long delayed came. A friend urged him to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He yielded to the advice and had not been taking them long when the longed for re- lief was noticed coming. He could ' move more easily, and the stiffness and pains be- gan to leave his joints.. He continued the use of the pills for some time longer and the pure was ,complete. Seeing Mr.Baekhus now it would be difficult to think of him as the crippled and helpless man of those painful days.' Mr. Backhus is now past his 80th year, but a.s he said, "by the aid of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I am as able as those ten years younger. You can readily judge of this when I tell you I laid forty rods of rail fence this year. I am glad to add my testim, ony in favor of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Dr:Williams' Pink Pills strike at the root of the disease, driving it from the system and restoring the patientto health and strength. In cases of paralysis, Spinal troubles, locornotor ataxia, sciatica, rheum- atism, erysipelas, scrofulous troubles, ete., these pills are superior to all other treat- Inente They are also a specific for the troubles which make the lives of so many women a burden and speedily restore the rich glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. Men broken down by overwork, worry or excesses, will find in Pink Pills a certain cure.

Speaking of law and the enforcement of discipline in Yellowstone Park, I heard the story of a bear there; which I consider exceedingly important, not only as a com- ment on the discipline of the Park, but as a moral lesson to parents in domestic obedi- ence. The -story is literally true, and if it were not I should not repeat it, for it would have no valuee Mr. Kipling says "the law of the jungle is—Obey." This been taken up *Rh enthusiasm by the press, and the Daily Telegreph's shilling fund in less than one week amounted to 160,000 shillings,: and is increasing daily by about -5,000 shillings.

My boy, you came in late last night, and this morning when your mother asked where you were, you said "down street," write*. Robert G. Burdette. Then When she asked whereabouts, you said, "Oh, just a little ways." Here is your home, this bright little spot like a star on the map. The sweetest, purest, safest place this side of heaven; the home where, from father to baby, they love you better than all the rest of the big, wide world. Now, when you start from here and go down street, some- how the street always has a down grade from home when you sneak out after night. See how far you get from respectability and self respect when you reach this corner, "just a little ways down," where you loit- ered last night. Yell hato meet them here because you could never meet them in your home, for two reasons. In the first place, your father wouldn't permit one of them to come into . his house, and in the second place yon would be ruiliamedeto invite them them there, whether your father forbade it or not. It is a long way from your respect- able home, from your mother's friends and. your father's guests to this corner down street, isn't it? Then—look on the map, my boy—see how far it is from manliness? Don't you know your mind will never again be as pure andinnodent as it was before you went "jut a little ways down street" last night? While you were listening to stories, punctuated with profanity, Ithe dear ones at home gathered in the sitting -room, your father opened the -Book and read. They knelt at the family altar and commended themselves to the keeping of the Heavenly Father, and tenderly remembered the boy who was " just a little.way down street." Then the lights went .out one by one, the house was still, and only the loving mother waited anxieusly and sleeplessly for the boy who wee down' street. It was more than ten million miles away from the sweet old chapter that your father read, down to the stories you heard, my boy. And what a steep grade all the way down! Keep off the street after night, my boy. Other peo- ple will think better t of you, and what is a far more important thing, you will think much better of yourself. o A TEA -GROWING PARADISE."

English statesman, particularly noticeable for his massive proportions, spent a holiday by the seaside, and among other marine amenities paid a visit to a man-of-war lying off the Hampshire coast. After dinner, as the weather turned rather dirty, the cap- tain, an unusually small and clapper man, suggested that his guest should sleep on board, and thoughtfully gave up his own cabin to him. The next morning the cap- tain's servant, unaware of the recent change came to the master's door with a cup of coffee, and knocked a couple of times with- out receiving an answer.
