STANLEY. ; Tlie Chicago Journal- preaches this sermon to girls on the danger .of flirtatien: A young girl flirts witii a stranger upon me street. The result is something disagree able, and straightway conies the excuse: "Why, I meant no harm. I never thought of doing anything wrong! I simply wanted to have a little fun!" " Now, look me straight in the eye, young gossamer-head, wlnle I tell you what I know. The girl who will indulge in flirtation with strange young men in public places, however harmless and innocent it may ap pear, places herself in ilia" estimation upon a level with the most abandoned of her sex, and courts the same vile regard. Strong language for a mild-mannered Amber to make use of, but, I become a furious old grandmother the moment I see a blessed j'oung girl tiptoeing her thoughtless way upon this road that leads to death and destruction! The boat that dances like a feath er on the tide a few miles above the commencement of Niagara rapids is jnst as much lost as when it enters the swirling, swinging water of waters, unless a strong hand keeps it up stream and out of danger. A flirtation to-day is a ripple merely, but to morrow it will be a breaker, and then a whirl pool, and after that comes hope less loss of character. TESTIMONY OF A PAISTKK.

S tillering from severe pains in my side and chest, contracted through "a severe cold. I applied a couple of Allcoek's Porous Plasters upon going to bed at night. The result was, that in eight hours after applying them I could get up and walk about with very little pain or ache, when the night previous I could neither get up nor down without help, nor stoop to remove my shoes. I have since used them in my family for various ailments, and " have never known them to fail to give almost immediate relief. T. II, Backus.
