In view of the fact the following is timely. Read it if you are a father or mother: The paradise of childhood. What, and where is it? To rnswer the last question iirsH we would answer, "In every intelligent community whero its benefits and blessings are understood." To the secood query we would reply, "That it is, as its nsme indicates, a place where children are always happy and therefore good," because"" good child is always a happy one.- l-et us pause a moment and tind out right here the cause of the so called naughtiness in children. Is it not that restless activity caused by ihe awakening faculties of the 1 mind reaching out for something to lay i ho!a oil When the "we" one is hungry, : we seo to it that it has its proper nour ishment. What of the hungry mind and soul? This place then fills the wants of the awakening mind and soul, and hence the contentc ent of the children. How stupid we are wiiJi all our boast ed wisdom. W furnish the tanner with every needed implement to cultivate the soil and all manner of seeds to plan', after the ground has been thoroughly tilled But what say you to such a man who, after having been thus provided, takes a handful of seeds and throws them over the land not having first prepared the soil? Could he expect much of a har vest'.' Would not the general verdict be that he lacked in common sense as well as a knowledge of his busintss. Per haps someone laughs at this picture '; What better are we tiian this foolish husbandman, if we expect from tiie man I grown a sound body together with a 1 logical, well balanced mind and a grand i soul, if we have not first thoroughly t II ! ed that wonderfully fertile soil, the I child's mind. What a susceptible thing it is. So plastic; taking ii all sorts of impressions 'hat afterwards harden into character. The age from three to seven is the period when the greatest care should be exercised. One has said. "Give m the child the state can have the man." This is the time to arouse the curiosity, to guide the im agination, to direct observation to things outside of itself to the great book of na ture, for it is this volume the child shoud study before studying the abstract page: also to train the mind to be logical, to . .

In ' short, to prepare tbe mind for all sorts of ! educational seed, to say nothing of the training ol the tody and the soul wh'ch must go on at the same lime in order to form a well rounded chara-ter. When , a little one has tree n thus prepared all i study ever alter become a delightful de-! velopment instead of the druugery it so often is.

The question which Mr A J (Jarothers wi-iies to have discussetl as to whether the soul of man sleep from the day of death till the resurrection does not appear to ths ordinary man as an important one. If the bible teiches such a doctrine it must Ire in a very obscure manner, or the doctrine cotiid not have been lost, in a liook so constantly studied, and thus required a reward of 500.or any other sum for further search to find it. It would appear also that tii- question can not be settled by any amount of discussion owing to the absence of any possible absolute demonstration. Again, admitting th- dor-trine, for the sake of argument, of what interest i it? If a man's spirit falls asleep at death and awakes only at the ri.siurrw-ticn, the inter mediate ti me will lie to him an if it Kn.i never existed. It seems a useless arrangement for tbe : I)rd to (lertnit billions of souls to be created, I live on the earth a few short years and then j stow them away iu cold storage works for' an indefinite time. It is not like his work in other lines j when a piece of his creation has done its work in one line lie has fixed hU laws, so ! that it is very sure to be used in some other -line. We desire to speak reverently, for we ' believe an earnestly in a future life as any ' soul sleeper but me think such a doctrine impugns the wisdom of tbe Almighty, by j assuming such a waste of time and material, by lumbering up space for ages with a lot I slumbering souls, when they might be do. i ing some work somewhere. Also, it might be ased, of what benefit is this slumbering process going to lie to the son! itself ? If th? answers to the questions cannot Ire found in the Bible.tbey may find a response in the minds of thought-; ful men.

No other plasters ttave '..crn produced which gain so many testimonial ol hih value as those continuously accorded :o Alcock's Porous Piaaicis. and the onlv motive tor these exceptional tributes lies in fact of their being a medicinal and pharmaceuti cal preparation of superior value. Addi tional proof of the true value ot Alcock's Porou Plasters lies In the fact lhat they are being largely imitated by ursctupu lous persons, who seek to deceive the pub lic by offering plasters which they claim to be the 'same,' -equal,' 'a good, 'better,' best porous piasiev etc, while it Is In general appearencc only that they resem bieAllcock'.
