The proprietor of this ce!rbrst«<l medicine justly
claim, for it a superiority over all remedies ever offer
ed to the pa’.llc for the safe. certain speedy and per
manent cure of Ague and fever .or Chills and Fever
whether of abort or lone standing. lie refers to the
eo'lre Western and Southwestern country to bear him
testimony to the truth of .he insertion, that in no case
whatever will it fall to cure, if the directions are strict
ly followed and ca ried out. In a great many eases a
single dose lias been sufficient for a cure, and whole
families have been cured hy a single bottle, with a per
fect restoration of the general health It- is, however,
prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if its
use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two af
ter the disease has been checked, more especially in
difficult and long standing cases. Usually, this medi
cine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in
good order; should the patient, however, require a
cathartic medicine, after having t -ken three or four
doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL’ I } VEGETA
BLE PAM’LY PII»LS will be sufficient.

To my United States and World-wide Read

The following from a highly educated and popular
phpsiciau in Georgia, is certainly one of the most sen

wonderfully efficacious. I; has not failed in a single
Instance, to have the wished-for effect. lam doing a
pretty large country practice, and have daily use for
some article of the kind. lam free to confess that I
know of no remedy recommended by the ablest authors
that is so certain and speedy in its effects. On the con
trary they are uncertain in the extreme. My object
in writing you is to find out upon what terms I can
get the medicine directly from you. If I can get it
upon easy terms, I shall use a great deal of it. lan
aware that the use of such articles is contrary to the
teachings and practice of a great majority of the reg
ular l*ne of M. D.’s, but I see no just cause or good
sense tn discarding a remedy which we know to be ef
ficient, simply because we may be ignorant of its com
bination. For my part, I shall make it a rule to use all
and any means to alleviate suffering hum .nity which
I may be able to command— not hesitating because
someone more ingenious than myself may have iearn
d its effects first, and secured the sole right to secure
hat knowledge. However, lamby no m.ans an ad

qualities it possesses, I send you the following state
ment of my case:
1 was wounded about two years ago—wag taken
prisoner and confined for sixteen months. Being
moved so often, my wounds have not healed yet. I
have not sat up a moment since 1 was wounded I
am shot through the hips. My general health is Im

have more faith in your Sarsaparilla than in any thing

half a dozen bottles, and oblige

DR. BULL—Dear Sir: My husband. Dr. O. 8. John

New York, where be died, leaving the above C. P.
Johnson to my care. At thirteen years of age he had
a chronic diarrhoea and scrofula, for which I gave
him your Sarsaparilla. IT CURED HIM. I have for
ten years recommended it to many in New York, Ohio,
and lowa, for scrofula, feve* sores, and general debili
ty. Perfect success has attended it. The otiren effect
ed in some cases of scrofula and fever sores were
almost miraculous lam very anxious for my son to
again have recourse to your Sarsaparilla. He is fear
ful of getting a spurious article, hence lit* writing to
you for it. His wounds were terrible, but I believe he
will recover. Respectfully, JENNIE JOHNSON

THE BACHELOR AND BABY.
1 here was no one at home except
the baby's motlier, the bithy aud I--
ihiby had just </o:ie to sleep, when ba
-le\ s motiier remembered a tritlincr
commission which sue bad promised
to execute for me in the village. With
an injunction to touch the cradle if
baby woke, she departed, leaving me
proud of my new employment, and
lulled by past immunity Into a state
of fatal security.
With one eye on inv boot, and the
other on the cradle, like, a faithful
watch-dog, I listened to the retreating
footfall that should have warned me.
but did not, ‘to look out for squalls.”
I had no idea of the awful responsi
bility which I had taken upon myself,
or I should have shrunk from it as a
cat does from water, or mastiff from a
churning machine. In fact, rather sus
pect I felt a trifling degree ambitious
that baby should open one eye, only
one, that I might have the pleasure of
shutting it again. Unweary mortal!
How litt’e do we know when we are
well off! My ambition was but too
soon to be gratified; I had yet to learn
by bitter experience how weary is the
lot of those who —tend on babies.
I wonder whether infants are con
scious of their mothers’ absence, and
know that an opportunity has arrived
for “cutting up didoes!”
The Baby over whose slumbers I
had become the guardian genius—how
the flies pitched into its uose!—was as
sound asleep as any baby could be
when its mother departed; but no
sooner had her shadow faded from the
room than symptoms of weakfulness
began to appear. First came a sigh,
then a chuckle, that said as plain as
chuckle could say, ‘Now for some fun;’
then one eye opened and shut, aud
then both began peeping about, till
the head seemed inclined to bob off the
pillow. I felt a little nervous at these
symptoms—only a little.—‘Poll,’ said
I to myself, ‘a roll of the cradle will
soou settle your business, youngster.’
But it did not—baby was bound to
have a spree. It knew that its moth
er was out. The big, bothersome,
blue-1; ottle tly, too, tired of watching
for the ship over the clock face, start
ed on a voyage of discovery on its own
account, and the first promontory
which it reached was the nose of the
baby, a tempting spot, upon which it
landed for refreshments, buzzing most
villiauously as it did so. It was a
ticklish landing, however, and baby
Hr/ivz. it off with n. sauinzn .that, utlaii.
ished its nerves, and mine to, more
than the fly’s, for the fly was accustom
ed to ticklish situations, which I was
not. Baby was thoroughly aroused.
Up went its round, chubby arm; but a
rock of the cradle soon sent that back
to its place. I did rock that cradle
beautifully! The little head rolled to
and fro as easily as if it had been fas
tened on by a toy mandarin’s neck.
I could not help admiring myself
for the way in which I did it, and I am
sure that any reasonable baby would
have gone to sleep again, if onty for
compliment’s sake; but the baby in the
cradle didn’t. The moment the rock
ing ceased, up popped the little head
like Judy’s in the show, *,vith a small
peevish cry. That cry ! It was like
the ‘fizzing of the fuse” of a powder
magazine, sure to end in an explosion.
Were you ever aroused in the mid
dle of the night by the maid of all
work, coming in her slippers to inform
you that the house was on fire ? Did
you ever stand by a Dutchman who
was weighing gunpowder with a light
ed cigar in his mouth ? Did you ever
stand over the boiler of a Mississippi
steamboat, and expect every moment
to be landed on the tree tops of a half
a mile island ? If not, you cannot con
ceive my horror when I heard that cry.
I was in cold perspiration from head
to foot. I have no doubt that hail
stones as big as peas might have been
picked off my face.
I rocked for dear life, and baby
bounced about like a ball of India
rubber. But it w ? as useless. I sang
all the songs I could think of, from
‘Husb-a-baby,’ to ‘Cease, rude Boreas.’
I tried teuor and I tried base, but the
baby did not know the difference. It
seemed to think it all base. The loud
er I sang, the louder be cried. It was
ball and squall, and squall and ball.—
The cry peevish became the cry indig
nant, and the cry indignant became
the squall imperative. Blue-bottle
buzzed with delight, and danced a
hornpipe on the window, while the
clock kept up a tantalizing ‘Go if! go
it!’
In an unlucky moment I lifted the
little tempest out of the cradle. Never
will I commit such on act of thought
less imprudence again. Before I did
so, I could have truly sung, with the
poet, ‘the white squall raves,’ but af
terward the fiercest blast of Boreas
seemed belching from the little throat.
In the hope of quieting the tornado,
I took it in my arms, waddled it to
and fro the room, tossed it up and
down till my shoulders ached, dandled
it on my knees—now the right one,
now the left, but nothing would do.
Like an easterly gale, that multiplied
squalls, seemed to be endless. I felt
really alarmed. I was completely ter
rified. I saw visions of convulsions
and such like ills that in.ant ‘flesh is
heix to.’ If I had been in the city, I
am sure that a crowd would have col
lected. I might have been taken up
and accused of an attempt at infanti
cide, and been published iu the papers
as a wretch, guilty of cruelty to dumb
animals. Dumb! How I wish that
dear family organ had been dumb! I
even envied the deaf men that pick up
cinders in the streets!
I looked at the clock, and exclaimed
in despair, “When will the mother re
turn ?” and the clock answered, w*ith
mocking monotony, “Not yet! not
yet!” Blue-hot tie had ceased its buz
ziiii*. an 1 returned to its old quarters
o\ <r tne diai-plate, to watch the reap
pearance of the ship, p rhap-5 asking
i B-s impatiently as I did, the question.
I “When viil she returnV” while the
clock continued to repeat unceasingly.
‘Not yet! not yet !”
I know not what to do, and rushed
a dozen times to tho door, hoping to
i see the coming relief. But the walls
;of the distant church aud the houses
beyond were tniek, and I could not
see through them. The brook was
! laughing in the sunshine, and mur
muring joyously as it glided over the
stones; I felt a strong temptation to
pop the piping part of the b iby into
it. lam sure the clock cried mock
iugly, “Do it, doit! Bat the thought
of a coroner’s jury restrained me—a
country jury of Dutch boors, with
sho -t pipes in their mouths, and skulls
two layers of brick thick!
There was a rooster upon the fence,
llappiug his wings and crowing like a
Trojan—l do believe it was over my
perplexity—the pigs were grinding iu
their sty, pulling each other’s ears for
amusements; and a cew was giving
nourishment to her calf in a distant
field. Suddenly a bright idea struck
me. I seized an old tobacco-pipe that
had been stowed away upon the rnau
tlepiece, and immersing the bulb in a
tumbler of water, thrust the stem in
the baby’s mouth. Baby whs no gen
ius. I became satisfied of that iu a
minute. It is an attribute of genius
to accomplish its desire with imperfect
instruments. There was no stoppage
in the pipe : I tried it myself.
I was at my wit’s end, and laid the
baby on the floor, cramming my fing
ers into my ears. It was of no use : I
could not shut out the sound. It was
like a thousand “ear-piercing fifes,”
drilling me through and through. I
was riddled with screams that touch
ed, like galvanic wires, every nerve.— j
The clatter of a three-story cotton
mill, with a hundred girls, talking of
new bonnets through the din, was
nothing to it. All the locomotives in
the Union would alone compare with
it. Mill and locomotive might be
stopped, but baby-couhl not be quiet
ed, even for a moment. Anything but
a baby’s lungs would have been worn
out bysuch an abuse of power; but their
strength only increased, seeming to
acquire new pipes at every blast.
\\ hat would I not have given for
the sight of a petticoat bearing down
to my relief ? Never did Kobinson
Crusoe, on his desert islands, gaze
more longingly over theoceau iu search
£ >IN -v** -X + Ltu if Ji LUG il/UU
for a bonnet and curls. I could have
smiled lovingly on tho fattest dowager
that every sweltered in the West In
dies, or the thinnest scrub that pays
her devotions to the door-steps. But
the feminines, like other useful com
moditi -s, had all vanished when most
wanted. Even tho cat, accustomed
to nursing as site was—even the cat,
sensible creature, had disappeared.
Like the distressed hero of a novel, j
I was left to my own resources, and
had no resources left. There w T as a;
baby flopping about on the floor, Lke
a porpoise on a ship’s deck, as if lying
on its beam-ends was its natural posi
tion. I righted it a dozen times, but
over it went again, as if its ballast had
shifted to the head. I brought the
shovel and tongs and bellows from the
fireplace, but baby wouldn’t look ut
them, not a bit of it, although I took
the trouble to blow the bellows in the
blue bottle’s face, and sent the threads
on carpet flying about the room. Even
the clothes-brush and nutmeg-grater :
proved no attraction, and I broke a
suspender-button bopping about like
a frog on all fours. If I had stood on
my head, aud shook the pennies out of
my pockets, it would have had no ef
iect. Even a lump of sugar would not
bribe it to be quiet. It made wry fa
ces at the mirror, and pitched savage
ly into the pillow, turned indignantly
from the tea-kettle, and squared off at
the rolling-pin. If I had given it the
carving knife, Ido verily believe it
would have cut its own bead off, and
made two squalls instead of one; but
I forbore. Give me credit for my mag
namity, I forbore!
For nealry a mortal hour, an age,
was I thus kept in a state of frenzy.
M} r hair stood up “like quills upon the
fretful porcupine. ’ They have always
stubbornly refused to lie down smooth
ly since. If my trial had listed much
longer, I should certainly have had a
“giay head upon young shoulders.”—
Perhaps I should have sunk into the
grave with a nervous fever, and had
“Died of baby nursing” for an epitaph
upon my tombstone. Fortunately for
the public in general and me in partic
ular, I was spared such a catastrophe
by the return of the mother, who burst
into the room at the critical moment
when my Job-like patience had perish
ed—by degrees, as the water leaks
from a hroken-liooped bucket. With
what a feeling of relief did I look up
at the old clock, as it announced to
me; in its most cheerful tone-*, “She’s
come! come!”
Would you believe it ? —but I’m sure
you can't; the fact seems too great an
enormity—that little piece of preversi
ty was as quiet as a l imb in a min- j
ute! Why, the mother was so decoiv- j
ed that she actually called it her “pre- i
cious lamb !” I heard her, and was j
astounded. I wonder she did’t feel j
sheepish; I know I did. Lamb, in-!
deed! If that being was a lamb, \
what would it be when it became milt- |
ton? Why, it was fast asleep again ]
in no time, and laughing in its dreams
over the fun it had enjoyed. Didn’t
I vow never to be caught alone with a |
baby again ? If I never am, may Ii
be—served in the same manner again.
