Sadness and Literature. One
of the anomalies of literary history is
that it has often been the lot of those
men who have contributed largely to
the mirth or recreations of others to en
dure a more than ordinary share of mis
ery and want in their own lives, 'j he
most entertaining portions of literature
have been written by men whose hearts
have been bowed down by sorrow, and
at moments when that sorrow has been
heaviest. It was in the gloom of a
mother's death, deepened by his own
poverty, that Johnson penned the
charming tale ot “Hasctlas it was in
the chill desolation of a bare and fireless
garret that poor Goldsmith, the beloved
vagrant of literature, sketched the
brightest picture of domestic happiness
the world has ever had; it was from a
sickbed, in sore distress, and inane*
cessitotis exile, that Tom Hood shook
a l England with laughter. The en
chantment of Scott, the satire of Jer
rold, halt ot the gems of English wit
and humor, have been thrown out by
genius in its most sorrowful moments. '

PERRY DAYIS’
? VEGETABLE
: PAII KiLLEE
STILL TRIUMPHANT !
\ ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL
XX. by in numerable living witnesses, has
proved itself to be
THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE.
Although there have been many mcd:ci
nal preparations brought before the public
since the first introduction of Perry Davis'
Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts
expended in their introduction, tbe Pain
Killer has continued steadily to advance in
the estimation of the world as the best
family medicine ever introduced. As an
internal and external remedy, it is truly a
source of
Joy to tie World!
One positive proof of irs efficacy is, that
the sales have constantly increased, and
upon its own merits, as the proprietors have
not resorted to advertising to gain for it the
rank it, now holds among the great number
of preparations of the present time. The
rfect of the Pain Killer upon the patient,
when taken internally in cases of Colds,
Ccughs, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dys
entery, and other affections of the system,
has been ’ruly wonderful, and has won for
it a name among medicinal preparations
that can never be forgotten. Its success in
removing pains, as an external remedy, in
cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains,
Cuts, Stings of insects, and other causes of
suffering, has secured for it such a host of
testimony, as an almost infallible remedy,
that it will be hauded down to posterity as
ione of the greatest medical discoveries of
the nineteenth century. Tho magical ef
fects of the Pain Killer, when taken or used
according to directions, are certain. You
have only to be sure that you buy the
genuine article and adhere to the directions
in its use, and you will admit its wonderful
medicinal properties.
The genuine Perry Davis' Pain Killer is
now put up in panel bottles, with the words
Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the
glass; and with two steel engraved labels
on each bottle—one an excellent likeness of
Perry Davis, the origiual inventor of the
medicine, the other a steel engraved note of
hand. None others can be relied upon as
genuine. Prices of bottles 12*1 cents, 25
cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively.
Valuable Iledicite —We presume no
medical preparation ever offered to the pub
lic bus been more thoroughly tested than
PERRY DAVIS' PAIN KILLER. Thou
sands of persons, were they called upon to
do so, would cheerfully testify that they
have used it for various ills, with the most
satisfactory success. It is within our own
knowledge that an immeuse amount of suf
fering has been relieved by it. Its pro
prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis A Son, save
no pains or expense in order to satisfy the
fublie. Being strictly honorable men, they
observe the utmost uniformity in tho man
ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer.
The materials of which it is composed arc
carefully selected—none but tbe best quality
being used. 13y these means the high repu
tation. which the Pain Killer has long‘since
acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus
tained. In view of these facts, we are by
no means surprised to learn that Messrs.
Davis A Son's sales are constantly and
rapidly increasing. While we congratulate
our friends generally that so valuable a
preparation as the Paifi Killer is placed
within their reach, we must be permitted to
rejoice at the well-merited success of its
liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provx
