Castoria is Dr. Samuel Pitcher’s prescription for Infants
and. Children. It contains neither Opium, Morphine nor
other JTarcotic substance. It is a harmless substitute
for Paregoric, Drops, Soothing Syrups, and Castor Oil.
It is Pleasant. Its guarantee is thirty years’ use by
Millions of Mothers. Castoria destroys Worms and allays
feverishness. Castoria prevents vomiting Sour Curd,
cures Diarrhoea and Wind Colic. Castoria relievos
teething troubles, cures constipation and flatulency.
Castoria assimilates the food, regulates the stomach
and bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. Cas¬
toria is the Children’s Panacea—the Mother’s Friend.
Castoria.
“Castoria is an excellent medicine for chil¬
dren. Mothers have repeatedly told me of its
good effect upon their children.”
Dr. G. C. Osgood,
Dowell. Mass.
_
“ Castoria is the best remedy for children of
v.-liich T am acquainted. 1 hope the day is not
far distant when mothers will consider the
real interest of their children, and use Castoria
instead of the various quack nostrums which
are destroying their loved ones, by forcing
opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other
hurtful agents down their throats, thereby
sending them to premature graves.”

tory, institutions and people. In
speaking of the Exposition he
says ho Liberty Bell was
taken from the dome of the Cap¬
itol in Washington and carried
to Atlantic City. The bell is a
relic of the freedom of the slaves
in the late war. The speech on
the occasion was made by Col.
Washington, a direct descend¬
ant from the first president of
the United States, and that the
lamented George F. Grady, the
great orator, was one of the first i

A gentleman was dashing
along the highway gay and hap¬
py, in a handsome turnout. He
halted and asked us to take a
seat, and we did so. Nearing a
deep cut and embankment he
said, “Now we come to a river
and will have to cross iu a flat
boat. J ) A deep, muddy and
wide stream lay before us. We
drove info the boat, which at
once began to sink. We grap¬
pled the rope, pulled up and
then caught the limbs hanging
over from the steep banks. Fi

a dream, however, which illus¬
trates the career of him who
thoughtlessly falls in with the
gay and giddy ad own the path*
way of life, and is rushed into
the depths of sin and sorrow, re¬
covering only after a hard strug¬
gle for life, sometimes sinking
beneath the cesspools of vice—
lost, and lost forever.
