So stop and think before you speak ; Just cogitate a minute ; It makes all the differenee in the world If you're not in it.

It makes all the difierence in the world ' If you're not in it. A funeral went by to -day ; ' Tbu called the dead "a sinner ;" I wonder what the world will say ..

'There's not a thing upon the earth, Or oyer youin heaven', But you must weigh its little worth, Insert the gossip's leaven. 'T wonder when you view the Throne What flaw you'll find within it?

The Nostrum Craze. It is surprising that the American people still retain their faith in patent medicines. Rather than pay an educat- ed physician a fee of two dollars, some people will spend that amount for a bottle orbox of patent medicine. They will try one nostrum after another until they are killed or cured. The -'supersti- tion is not confined to the common folk. alone. People who should know better are ' ,among the best customers of the nostrum - „vender. The steady purchasers of•patent medicines are the poor andignorant. To be ignorant is to be credulous, and it is to the credulity of our people that our nostrum-vender,appeals so strongly. The farmers and their families aro afraid of the doctor, but they make friends with the quack. A. correspondent of the New York Sun, in describing the peculiarities of the western farmers, says : "If one patent medicine fails, it is because it is not the right patent medicine, and they try another. They perfer patent medi. cine, partly becauese there is a certain mystery about the ingredients and they are put up in an attractive form." It is riot easy to calculate how many millions of dollars are spent by American people on patent medicine every year. Think of the enormous expense required to keep a preparation before the public eye— calendars, almanacs, cook -books, cards, high-priced articles in all the daily papers. Of course, the money to pay for this comes from only one source -- from people . who buy the stuff. The sale of a certain . "vegetable" compound is said to have amounted in one year to three million dollars, and one-third of that went the nest year to advertising. Now to yeld three millions at least six million bottles }oust have , been sold. That gives one some idea of the number of people who use . such preparations.— .Popular Seien a fllo,ie ty, `�a"CITY RESTNVRRNI' for PINE APPLES, ORANGES, • LEMONS, BALANAS,' TO til ATOES, FRUIT OF ALL KINDS, CONFECTIONERY, ALL KINDS, ' ALMOND NUTS, WALNUTS, PEA NUTS. ?LEV? fld'YS.
