provided their bones aro not destroyed by mineral

beyond the point of repair.
They are a Gentle Puraratlvo an well n» a
Tonic, possessing also, tho peculiar merit of acting
as a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Iniium
mation of the Liver, and all tho Visceral Organs.
FOR FEMALE COMPLAINTS, whether in
young or old, married or single, at the dawn of woman
hood or at tho turn of life, these Tonic Bitters have no
equal.
For Inflammatory and Chronic IShcnma

symptoms nrc the offsprings of Dyspepsia.
They invigorate the Stomach and stimulate the torpid

Diseases of the Skin, of whatever name or nature are
literally dug up and carried out of tho system in n short
time by tho use of these Bitters. One bottle in such
cases will convince the most incredulous of their cura

Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever vou find its im
purities bursting through the skin in Pimple*, Erup

and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when It is foul,
and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood
pure, and tho health of the system will follow.
Pin, Tape ami other Worm«, lurking In the
system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed
and removed. Says a distinguished physiologist,
there is scarcely an individual upon the face of the
earth whose body is exempt from tho presence ot
worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the
body that worms exist, hut upon tho diseased humors
and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of
disease. No system of Medicine, no vermifuges, no
anthelmintics, will free the system from worms like
these Bitters.

Management of Maniacs.
One of the oldest inhabitants of
Boston has furnished the following
anecdote of old Governor Levered,
as an illustration of the force o;
courage and ingenuity upon a mad
man:
One morning, in tny years ago, a
-toot, burly liuifi maniac ill a parox
ysm oi insanity. burst out of the
asylum, and on hi- way, a musket,
heti'i’.x loaded, lei! into his hands
With this formidub e weapon, mount
ed with die teirible bayonet, thr
madman rushed oui into the city,
and pteuy efli*ciually cleared toe
stieets as he wts n.iaiching along.—
Turning a corner, he suddenly came
upon Goo riior Levered, and was
on the point of making a point blank
charge upon the vitals of die old
governor, who comprehending his
danger, in a single glance at die old
fellow, and di .wiug liiuisi If up
square and firmly before his dread
ful antagonist he hailed him thus.
“Ho! brouter soldier, have you
learned your exercise ?”
“Yes, 1 have!” said the fellow
with a terrible oath.
“The- , broiher -.aid du Govern
or, ‘stand !o your arms, like a vigi
lant soldier, wink- 1 give ihe word
of command.”
The madtii'ii seemed pleased
and stood holt up-igtii, wilh liis mus

The anecdote reo ind- us of u
similai one. mat imppene t., he ta
irrous Di. Physic, an . a.ineni medi
cal man, now dead and gone, of
Philadelphia. the doctor v.us a
.isuiiig physician at the lunauc asy
lum, near tiiat ci'y ; nod one morn
ing alter going his rounds among lln
patients of the institution, the doctor
strolled upstairs into the top g dir
ty of the large rotunda of the ouild
ing, to view the city and surround
ing country While absorbed in
the view from his high elevation, a
robust madman, who Lad eluded
his keepeis, came sudd, nly upon iht
duch-r, to his no little asioui-hm nl
and bodily tear. But keeping tier
feel ly coo!, hr- bid ihe iiiaui.-i, “good
day,” and was turning about to g
down stairs.
“No, you ilon’i,” said die man,
clutching the doctor firm y .s a
vice, * I want you o> show nr- some
thing ; tfiev say you do exervth 'm :

and I know you can, too, but I want
you jusi to jump down tins hole, (the
opening of the rotunda, surrounded
by the long spiral stairway,) away
on the pavement. Com-- on— do it
you must!” And ihe fellow exerted
nim-eii i.o brut* the do n>r up to the
railing, to which the poor doctor
clung with the tenac.tv of a nek.— I
The moment w as one of peril to die
doctor, but bis presence ot mind com
pletely floored tiis antagonist.
“It would not b>- v-ry hard tor
me to jump down there, sir,” said
the doctor; “nui lean do a greater
feat than that for you, if you wish lo
see me try.”
“Can you, rh. old fellow ? Well,

A Fish Story.
The last fish story comes from
New Jersey. Lately, in the interior
ot that Siate, a mild looking coun
tryman entered a railway car, bear
ing a bundle tied up in a handker
chief, winch he placed under the
seat at the end of the car. After
traveling along for about half an
hour, a lady sitting in fr at of the
countryman was observed to move
uneasily on her seat, and to cast
savage glances at a seemingly res
pectable man sitting by her side. In
a few minnteß another lady, still fur
ther to the frunt, “became uneasy,’’
•md at last, rising in her seat, re
quested some gent letr.ii :Id pro
tect her Irom an elde- y io.J.mggen
tleman by her si.Je, and whom she
slated had insulted her. A dozen
persons offered their assistance, and
before die accused could speak in
bis own ilefeucv, bis h tired
over bis eyes, an.i he was “tagged
to the tear of tie ■.-■••. While there.,

They know not wbat it is to n noWe
