Carefully and accurately compounded at all hours, day or night.. Bainbridge; Q-a., Feb. 20th, 1869. Jfahy year£ ago, the writer of these lines and an invalid physician, while visiting the Island of St. Croix for their health, experienced and witnessed many surprising and beneficial effects of the Bum there produced upon many of the invalids who were (like ourselves) seeking health; and, upon influiry tod investigation, obtained a full history of its medicinal virtues. He was delighted and surprised, and after his own which soon Occurred, determined, if possible, to procure the sole light to manufacture and sell it in the United States. ‘ , r , „ ~ The result of his labors was .a gldricus success for himself tod suffering humanity for the celebrated PLANTATION BITTEBS was thus made known to the world. PLAN TATION BITTEBS being an article of real merit, founded upon new principles, and relying wholly Upon ihe vegetable world for its medicinal effects, worked a rapid wrote? tion in the history of medicine, and became as a household .tford all over the civmzed' world. The cabalistic S. T.-1860-i was a talisman of health, and the demand for the PLANTATION BITTEBS soon far exceeded the abilities of the proprietors to supply. Notwithstanding the large importation of St. Croix Burn, made expressly for the com pounding of these Bitters, the quantity was inadequate. It therefore became necessary that arrangements upon an extensive scale abroad should at once be made, and an agent was dispatched to St. Thomas fbr that'purpose. He was fortunate in securing tod testing several plantations on some of the largest and most productive estates^ on the island. Houses, stills and presses were erected as if by magic, which utterly l aston ished the natives. ” The services of experienced men and natives of the island werejpro cured, and very soon the proprietors of the PLANTATION BITTEBS were in a position to supply their laboratory with all the perfectly pure St. Croix Bum needed m manufac turing the GBEAT DYSPEPTIC TONIC AND INYICCBATOB. . The above cut repre^ts As an antidote to Fever and Ague, Intermittent and Malarious Fevers, Dyspepsia, and other kindred diseases, the use of the PLANTATION BITTEBS is unsurpassed in the history of the world. Over five million bottle *?e disposed of annually. They are adapted to old and young, male and female. They are agreeable in taste, and always produce an immediate beneficial result, 1 Dcccmbci 9, 1868 Se ~ ly ' BACHELOR’S HALL. *ROSt THE HUSH OF BILL* o’rOUBKB. ilaohelor’s Hall What a, queer looking place It is! Kajid me ftom'Bucli ail the days of my life; Sure but I think what a burning disgrace it is, Never at all to be getting a wife. fflH&e old bachelor, glootriy a,nd sad enough, Placing hfs tea-kettle over tile fire; Soon it slips over; Saint Patrick! he’s mad enottgn, (If he were present) to fight with the squire. Noto like a hog in a mortar bed wallowing, (Awliwatci enough) see him kneadiug his dough, Troth! if the bread he could ate without swallowing, How it would favor his palate you kri ow. The dish-cloth is missing* the pigs are devouring it, In the pursuit he has battered his shin; A plate wanted washing, grimalkin is scouring it, Thunder and turf what a pickle he’s in! Pots, dishes and pans, and crazy commodities, Ashes and pratie skins kiver the floor; His cupboard’s a storehouse of commical oddities, Things that had never been neighbors before. His metil being o’er the table left sitting so, Dishes take care of yourselves if you CEtri! But hunger returns; then he’s fuming and fretting so Och! let him alone for the baste 01 a man! Late in the night he goes to bed shiverin’, Never the bit is the bed made at all; . He creeps like a terrapin under hi 3 kiverin’— Bad luck to the picture of Bachelor’s Hall!
