A Universal Moral Panacea.

A reader of the Hebrew Leader proposes the following remedy for the ills of the flesh and spirit, composed of leaves, plants, and roots, which, if taken without a wry face, will make any man respectable and happy:— Leave off drinking. Leave off smoking. Leave off chewing. Leave off snuffing. Leave off swearing. Plant your pleasure in the home circle. Plant your business in some honorable employment. Plant your faith in Truth. Root your habits in industry. Root your feelings in benevolence. Root your affections in God. For directions, see the holy Scriptures, and beware of counterfeit creeds and quack theologians.
