They are the GREAT ISLOOB PUltl FIEII and A LIFE GIVING PRINCIPLE, a perfect Reno vator and Invigorator of the System, carrying off all poisonous matter and restoring the blood to a healthy con dition. No person can take these Bitters according to directions and remain long umvcil,provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poi.on or other means, and the vital organa wasted beyond tho point of repair. They arc a Gentle Purgative as well nN a Tonic, possessing, also, the peculiar merit of acting as a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver, and all the Visceral Organs. FOR FEMALE COMPLAINTS, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood or at the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters have no equal. For Inflammatory ami Chronic Rlicunm t ism ami Gout, Dyspepsia or Imligcstiou, Bil ious, Remittent ami Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have been most successful. Such Diseases arc caused by Vitiated Blood, which is generally produced by derangement of the Di gestive Organs. DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGESTION, Headache, Pain in the Shoulders. Coughs, Tightness of the Chest. Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks. Palpitation of tho Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the regions of the Kidneys, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia.

Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its im purities bursting through tho skin in Pimples, Erup tions or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, ami the health of the svstem will follow. l*in, Tape, ami other Worms* lurking In the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. Says a distinguished physiologist, there is scarcely an individual upon tho face of the earth whose body is exempt from the presence of worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the body that worms exist, but upon the diseased humors and slimy di-posits that breed these living monsters of disease.

G. II Hand. Hlisctllancous. Just for Fun. BY S. ANNIE FROST. It was rather a lavorite excuse with Willie Goodwin, whenever he was deep in ntischiri, or had lo plead guilty when accused of sou e boy ish scrope, that it was done just for fun. Many a time he resolved lotry to he more orderly and let boyish pranks alone, bui the next prospect of Inn would banish all his good res olutions, unlil the penally iccalled them again. He was nearly fifteen when the tragedy I am about lo tell you sobered him lor life. He was a middle-aged man when he told me the story, hut even then he could not speak without emotion of his last piece of “fun.” “We had neen out for a walk,” he told me, “Frankie Ford, Tom Lee, and I, and were coming home at twilight, when we met Sammy Wil lets, who was rather a favorite but for teasing, with all the boys. He was a very timid, rather sickly boy, of about fourteen, peevish and easi ly irritated, and the rougher, strong er bovs said, a coward. As soon as we saw him coming, the spirit of mischief seemed to possess us all, and each one planed how to tease the poor timid boy. “Let’s hide and jump at him,” one suggestc and. “Lei’s tell him his house is on fire, and see him run,” cried anoth er. “i’ll tell you what we’ll do,” 1 said. ‘We’ll coax him down to Ruthland’s barn (or a game of romps, and shut him up!’ Kuthlatid’s barn was a large barn standing alone, at some distance from any other building. The farm house to which it had belonged had been destroyed Ly fire, and the great barn had been left standing when lluihland deserted the place and went West. It was a favorits play room lor all the village boys who spent long Saturday afternoons m it, making it a gymnasium and recitation hall, as occasion required. “Although it was twilight, the summer evenings were long, and Sammy was not surprised to be told we were going to Rulhland’s ham for an hour of play before bed-lime. He was quite willing to join us, and we were soon in the old barn, making it ring with our shouts and laughter. “The hour passed rapidly, and it was getting quite dark, when we sent Sammy imo the hay-loft on some errand, ran out ourselves and drew the big doors after us. It was harder work to fasten them with the rusty iron latch, hut we aacomplished this, 100, and then ran off “Just as we were at the edge ol the field, we heard one fearful scream, but we only hurried on, laughing at the thought of Sammy’s discomfiture. “1 must say in our defence, that passing one night in the old barn would have been no great misfortune to any of us. We were all hearty, country boys, full oflife and health ; free from superstition or morbid fears, and we could none of us real ize what the dark loneliness was to a timid, sickly hoy with rather a weak mind. “It must have been nil* r midnight when wc we re roused at home by a a violent knocking at the door. My father spoke from the window, ask iug what was wanted, and I hcaid our neighbor, Mr. Wdieis, asking anxiously : “Is Sammy here ?’’ “No. Is lie lot at home I “He has not been home since sun set. lam very much umncil, be ciuse he is not well.” “I'll ask Willie it he inis seen him.” “In another moment fin her was by mv be,l, and I told him where they would find Sammy. Never shail I target the father’s cry ol hor ror : “it will kill him ! M v poor, timid boy. He is afraid of the dark, and the doctor has told us we must hu mor him, because he is not strong enough to hear fright. Will you come with me, Mr. Goodwin ?” “I was dressing as rapidly as I could, and was by my father’s side when lie lighted a lantern anil joined Mr. Willets. “Let me go!” 1 begged. “I nev er meant to hurt him. 1 wouldn’t mind staying there all night a bit. and 1 did not think it would really hurt him. Oh ! sir do you think it will kill him ! h was all a joke, just fur fun.” “God forgive you boy,” he an swered me in a choked voice. “I am afraid it will Ire he dear fun fai ns all. Sammy, my poor hoy ! Who will tell his mother if harm h is come to him? Our only one—our poor, sickly boy!” “So he lamented as he hurried across the field, every word increas ing my terror and remorse. It was m\ proposal, and I felt inysell the only guilty one, though the others had helped me to carry out the cruel joke that seemed anything hut fu now. We reached the barn at last, and undid the heavy fastenings at the door. Mr. Willets called his bov by name ever)’ moment, but no answer came, li seemed to me hours Indore the heavy doors swung back. One ot them would not open wide, and looking in lo sec to see the cause, we found poor Sammy, white and sense less, lying on the floor behind it. His father lifted him. “ He is not dead ! ” ho said, “Can we get water ?” “1 hurried to the well and brought waler, but the boy was 100 far gone for that. Oh 1 the long distance it seemed to Mr. Willets’, and beyond that to the doctor’s, where 1 ran at once. Never shall A’brgct the lace ol Sammy’s mother as she look the boy’s lace in her hands, and look ed into it. It was so white and still, 1 dared scarcely believe he really lived as I hurried to the doc tor’s. He did live, recovering his health after a long, dangerous ill ness; hut his mind was gone forever. Some fright in those lonely hours of darkness gave a shock to the weak mind that was never cured, and he lived only to he an idiot. “It is some years now since we laid him in his quiet grave, the vic tim of a boyish prank. I tell you it was the last piece of mischief l ever did ‘just for ia\\."—-Methndisl. To Disappointed Ticket-Holders. Gentlemen, we congratulate you.

[('harieslou News. An infidel was lecturing on his favorite topic, against the Bible ai,<l C/instiiiiiih/, in one ol die large lowns in the north of England. He wns peculiarly hitter against the word of God. At the conclusion of die lec ture, feeling much delighted with his effort, he said, “It any one wish es to reply, let him come forward and speak.” Alter a brief pause, a middle aged woman came tip to the stand and said, Sir, l wish to ask you a tiues tion?” “Well, mv good woman, what is die question?” “I'en years ago,” said .-lie, -‘I was left a widow with eight small children; my husband died poor; h left me not much except a Bible. That book has b-en read daiiv, and I’ve found swet t com oil and great support in its gracious tiuths. God has blessed me and mv eliildn n and has mercifully . applied m, wants and theirs. I have a good hope in Jesus Christ, and expeci when I die to dwell with him forev er. Now, sir, what has your be lief done for you?” Rather confused, die infidel re plied: “My good woman, I’ve no de sire to interfere with jour enjoy ment.” “That is not the question. What has your way of thinking done lor you?” Much confounded, the man heat a retreat amid the laughter of a large congregation, who felt the willow had surely and effectively silenced the infidel. LIFE’S PICTURES. A story is told of a ricli landlord who once oppressed a poor widow, who was unlorlunate enough to he his tenant, finally turning her out into the street on a cold day in Win ter. Her son, a mere child, les_- than a dozen years old, remembered the cruel scene, and in alter years became an artist, and painted the scene in a vivid manner, placing the picture where the landlord could see it, who turned pale at having his for mer infamy brought to mind so forci bly, and offered large sums of money for the picture, that he might hide it from his own and other people’s gaze. But all in vain ; he could not buy the picture, and lor a long time it remained at his very threshold, as it were, a silent evidence ot his for mer infamy. So has each human being an in visible painter at his elbow, painting on the soul’s canvas a record of the acts and scenes oflife, depicting the passions of his career with an inten sity that at some future day will haunt with their truthful denuncia tions and biting rebukes. Happy lo: us, then, if such dark, sombre scenes are few, and their smouldering fires are eclipsed by fairer and more holy scenes, when we gaze hack on the panorama of our [last lives, and review our ca reer before entering upon another one of greater capabilities! Happy for us, then, if our race after happi ness, has not been a mere scramble after riches, anil il we had nut grov eled so long in the earth benealli our leet that we have lost sight of the beautiful skies above us. Yes, hap py indeed if we had no haunting picture of glaring misdeed, or pei verted aspiration to point its ghoul ish finger ever at us, or gieet us with its sickly grin or malicious torment, as we turn ibis way and that in a vain endeavor to escape its upbraid ings. An Amherst Sophomore has de vised anew way of telling bad news. He writes home to his lather, “I came near losing thirty-seven dol lars last week.” Anxious parent writes hack that lie is thankful the money was not lost, and wains to know “how near.” By return maih “came within one of it—less thiriy six.” No. 43 Humorous. A cynic remarks that ;Sit* only lime a woman forgets to be vain is when she is sea-sick. Josh Billings says: “Knowing how to sit square on a bile, without hurting, is one of the lost arts.” A cemetary seubunr lately pub lished this card: “As ihe holidays are approaching, and the time lor presents is nearing, I beg to call at teniion to my stock of tombstones.” An experienced boy says he re gards hunger and the chastening rod as about the same thing. They both make him holier. Brisko advertises as follows : “Will the fellow who stole mv hat at a college sociable oblige me by weaiing the same i:i broad daylight.” It is said that if you take two let ters from money, there will he but oue left. We have heard of am m who took money from two letters, and tlieie wasn't any left. W hen a man and a woman are made one, the question is, which one? S rnelimes then- is a long si rug gle between them before die mailer is settled. An Indiana cooper put his son in side a cask he was finishing, to hold the head up. At last accounts he was trying to find some wav lo get him out through the bung bole. “How would you like to sit on a ju ry?” asked a gentleman of a strong minded old maid. “I'd as soon sit on a haiehet,” said the spmsier, with a shake of her bombazine skirt. A gentleman traveling in Ireland, said to a very importunate beggar, “You have lost all your teeih.” The beggar quickly answered, “An it’s time I parted with um, w hen I’d nothing for um to do.” “You can’t do 100 much for your employers, man,” said somebody to a big listed, strong backed man-of ull-work, on ihe wharf the other day. “Arndt,” replied Put, with emplia sis, “neither will J.” A little girl not far from Schenec tady, after noticing lor some time the glittering gold-filling ui her aunt’s front teeth, exclaimed, Aunt Mary, I wish I had copper-toefd teeth like yours.” A past >r was leaving us at tea o’clock on Saturday night, remark ing: “I have hall of my sermon to write yet; don’t you pity me?” To which we responded : “6, no ! Not you, but the people.” This was fair. “Would you be lieve it,” said Rev. Mr. Ulihmngue, to one of his elders, “1 never thought of that subject till I got into the pul pit.” To which his elder replied : “That’s just what wife and l were saying on our way from church. At the late Ply mouth church pie uic, Mr. Beecher was askr-d why he did not dance. “There is but one reason,” he replied, “I don’t know how. The only dancing lever did, was when my father furnished the music, and used me as a fiddle, I look all the steps then.” A Pennsylvania editor, in ac knowledging the gift of a peek of potatoes, says: “It is such kind nesses as these that bring lears to our eyes. One peck of potatoes makes the whole world kin. We trusted in Providence, and this is our reward. We would like a little wood and some turnips, but that would be asking too much, so we wili try lo do without them.'" At an annual examination recent ly of a certain school not more than fifteen miles from Boston, the mas ter asked one of the scholars, “ Wiiat the Pilgrims came over to America in,” and had his equanimity some what disturbed by the reply: “Two steamers.” Turning to another scholar, he endeavored to set mut ters right hy asking“ When the Pil grims landed,” and was again floor ed by the answer: “1S60!” A celebraied preacher of the 17th century, in a sermon to a crowded audience, described the terrors of the last judgment with such elo quence, pathos and force of action, that some of his audience not only burst into tears, but sent forth pierc ing cries, as if the Judge himself had been present, and was about to pa-s upon them their final sentence. In the height of this excitement the preacher called upon them lo dry their tears and cease their cries, as he was about lo add something still more awful and astonishing ihan any thing he had yet brought before them Silence being restored, he with an agitated countenance and solemn voice addressed them thns: “In one quarter of an hour from this time the emotions which you have just now exhibited will be stifled; the remem brance of the fearful truths which excited them will vanish; you will return to your carnal occupations or sinful pleasures with your usual avidity, and you will treat all you have }ieard ‘as a tale that is told J ” «
