Never attempt to pro- | duce anything without a thorough | understanding of that which you! undertake, and destroy as little as} possible. Pardon everybody before- hand, to be on the safe side. Do! not despise men; do not hate them, and do not ier at them beyond | measure.

Try to become useful, to remain free, and before denying God wait until somebody proves to you that He does not exist. “For a man and for a woman there is a succession of duties to be ful- filled which enables them to look always ahead and to become accus- tomed to the absence of the objects of their most dear affections. The world would finish too quiekly if the firet child was not able te survive the death of the first mother. “Misfortunes and trials attack noble souls without hurting them They are like rocks of granite that sea covers in time of tempest with its furious waves, fancying that it is drowning them, while it is merely washing them, so they reappear again in the sunlight more polished and more shining than ever. Ad- versity embellishes those that it can not cast down. By the laws of na- | ture a man should have many chil- dren. He should raise them well, so they may be useful; and he should love them, so that they may be happy. To get married when a man is young is healthy; to choose in girl; to love her with all his heart its virtue, its sincerity and its com- munion in universal progress. Glory | for glory’s sake is a shameful specu lation. “The men who rejoice in their celebrity are simpletons; the men who are proud of their genius are fools. “There is one thing that is especi- ally beautiful in great and pure af- | fections, and that is that, after the pleasure which they afford has pas sed away, there remains the happi ness of their recollection. “Very often an unexpected grief or an unmerited misfortune gives to &man an energy and perseverance which he could never find in happi ness. And after such trials a man often becomes superior who would have remained simple and yulgar if he had always been happy. He who is without energy when young will never have it. Grit is not a winter fruit; it never grows in the snow. “One may expect everything from a man of energy to whom misfortune has given covrage and ambitien. “ALEXANDRE Dumas, fils.” It is a big thing to say but never- theless true, that a great multitude of people have crowned Simmons Liver Regulator, the “King of Liver Medicines.” There is nothing like it for Malaria, Rheumatism, Chills and Fever, Constipation, Biliousness, Sick Headache, Indigestion and all troubles arising from a sluggish or diseased liver.
