Putty and Varnish.
We think the following among the
best of the productions of Artemus
Ward ;
When a man cums to the konklnsion
that he would like to kill sum boddy si
thirty paces, he imagines that he haz
bin wronged, and sends hiz best friend
a challenge to site a dewell ; tha meet;
an elegant murder is committed; the
cracks in this trausaktion are puttye.l
up, and then varnished over, bi beiug
called “an affair ov honor.”
When a man robs a saving bank, or
goes tew ur.jpe on the last steamer, with
the stolen receipts ova sanitary kon -
niittee in his pocket, a komuiittee ov
investigation are got together to exam
ine the stait of affairs and unanimously
report a “diskrepansy in his account.” i
yung men hire a horse and buggy at a
livri stable, and go into the kuntry on
Sunda. They stop at the first tavern
they meet, and invest in some ardent
speerits. The more tha hiate iu the
more tha drive, till bi and hi a devilish
bridge tips them over into a devilish
gutter that Bumbody bus lef hi the sice
ov the road, and they are all killed in
cluding the horse and the buggy. This
is called a “fatal aksidetit.”
A man and his wife are living in the
middle of joy and consolashun, tha are
surrounded on awl aides by a yung and
interesting familee, their bread is cut
thin, and buttered on both sides and the
edges, but the destroyer enters the
family, the wife wants a nu silk gown,
the mail eaz he “be d—d if she duz,"
and she “be d—d if she don’t.” One
word brings on another till tha site, both
of them lose all the hair in their heds,
and 2 full sets of false teeth, the thing
ends in a divorce, the man runs awa
tew Australia by the overland route, the
woman marrys a eirkus rider at 40
dollars a month, the children are
adopted bi suiu Sunday school, and are
brought up oil homopnthy. This fur
nishes a collum and a half in the news
paper, under the head ov “Disturbance
ov the married relation.”
A youth of 21 summers begins life
with 36 thousand dollars. Several hos
ses belong tew him, there are several
fast wimmen that he belongs tew, all
the tavern keepers are hiz patrons,-faro
banks are built for his amusement, con
solidated lotteryes are chartered on pur
pos tew make him feel good. He wakes
up about the 25th of next May, without
a dollar in his pocket, and a host of
warm friends on hiz hands, without any
visible means ov supporting them. He"
takes an akount ov sto< k, he buys a pint
ot rum and 4 yards ov bed cord', the one
makes him limber while the other makes
mm stiff. The putty and varnish in tins
kase is: “Driven to desperashun on
account ot fin&nshul pressure.”
A ralerode trane stans snorting in
front ov the depoe, the last bel iz ring
ing, the kars are full ov souls that be
long tew different individuals, the kon
ductor iz full of Bourbon, that belongs
tew the devil, the engineer labors under
an attack ov Jamaka tor the bronkclis
the switchman likes a leetle good old
rye, the kars diskount 45 miles a hour,
2 traines tri to pass each other on the
same track, it kant be did suckcessfuily:

place, the community iz satisfied, be

Ip—,., TERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
KILLER
STILL TRIUMPHANT !
A ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL
jtX by innumerable living witnesses, has
proved itself to he
THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE.
Although there have been many medici
nal preparations br6iight before the public
since the first introduction of Perry Davis’
Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts
expended in their introduction, the 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 the World!
One positive proof of its 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
eftect of the Pain Killer upon the patient,
when taken internally in cases of Colds,
Ccughs, Bowel Complaints, Choletn, Dys
entery, and other aftectiohs of the system,
has been iruly wonderful, and has won for
it a, name among medicinal preparations
that can never be forgotten. Its success in
removing pains, as an external remody, in
cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains,
Cnts, Stings of insects, aud other causes of
suffering, has secured for it such a host of
testimony, as an almost infallible remedy,
that it will be handed down to posterity as
one of tho greatest medical discoveries of
the nineteenth century. The 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 aud adhere to the directions
in its use, and you will admit its wonderful
medicinal properties.
The gennino 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 ot
Perry Davis, the original in von tor of the
racdicino, the other a steel engraved note of
hand. None others can be relied upon as
genuino. Prices of bottles 12£ cents, 25
cents, 50 cents, and* sl, respectively.
Valuable Medicine —We presumo no
medical preparation ever offered to the pnb
lio has been more thoroughly tested than
PEBRY DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER. Thou
sands of persons, wero 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 immense amount of suf
fering has been relieved by it. Its pro
prietors, Messrs. Porry Davis A Son, save
no pains or oxponse in order to satisfy the
public. Being striotly houorable men, they
observe the utmost uniformity in the man
olaclure of their celebrated Pain Killer.
The materials of which it is composed ate
carefully selected—none but the best quality
being used. By these menus 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 meuns 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 tho Pain Eiltor is placed
within their reach, we must be permitted to
