TWO EVENINGS TWO YEARS
APART. t!
“ Christine, will you go out on tho l ike (his
evening? Its o splendid night for a sail ?” .
Tho young lady thus intcrrogate.l sat by one
of the front windows of a large and’handsome
country residence. Her feet rested on au otto
man, and she was surveying the rosettes which
mounted a pair of daintily'embroidered slip
pers, with a. languid air and an absent, ball dis
satisfied expression. At her brother’s ques- >
tion, she turned aqt) looked out of the window,
and the summer evening revealed its beauty
5.,,1 on y byes of Christine .fin-vyr- -<■■■■
The hon e was situated on an eminence,
which commanded a view of the country for
miles around. The moon had just come over
the distant hills, and from her urn of gold was
poured out that crystal river of light whose
waves overflowed the landscape, and lent a
grace and beauty to every object they touched.
About a mile off, beyond the meadows, lay T the
lake, its silver seam flashing between the green
shores, and losing itself in a trend of the valley.
The wind shook out sweet perfumes from the
garden beneath; and -the stars overhead were
bright. Such was the summer evening which
Christine Jarvys beheld.
Her eyes did not brighten much in loving re
cognition of its beauty. There was a shadow
still on the young and sweet face which site
Turned to her brother.
“I don’t feel much inclined for going on the
water tills evening, Alfred,” she replied, and
the listless tones suited the shadowy in her face.
“ Who is to go besides you ?”
“ Nobody except Frank Reynolds and Ben.
Grant to manage the boat,” he. replied.—
“ You’d better go with us, instead of staying
here, and moping through the evening alone,”
the young man added, as he threw his sight
graceful limbs into the chair opposite his
sister.
“ 1 think I shall be able to stand it some
how,” said the young lady, with a resigned ex
pression of lone and face, which plainly indica
ted that she regarded martyrdom as her pecu
liar destiny, and intended to meet her fate with
becoming fortitude.
Alfred Jarvys leaned forward, rested one
hand on his sister’s knee, and looked in her
face.
“ What’s gone wrong now, Christie, that
you’re down in - the dumps like this ?’’ said he.
“Come, don’t act so, but brighten up and tell a
fellow wluit’s the matter.”
Thus adjured, the young lady condescended
to explain the causes which had produced her
present gloomy views of human nature, and of
•the world in general.
“ The truth is, Alfred,” said she, “you’re a
man and won’t understand auythiug about it;
but my bonnet came home this afternoon, and
its a perfect fright—a great bunch of poppies
on the outside, and purj le mignonette scatter
ed through the inside trimming—when pur
ple is so unbecoming; it always made me look
so hideous.”
Allred Jnrvvs was a generous, good natured
young man ; moreover, he loved his pretty sis
ter dearly; so he put on a deeply sympathetic
voice and face, much such a one as a father
•would over a decapitated plaster of Paris dog,
wbieh his child might hold up to him.
“ Well,” said lie, “ its too bad about the bon
net, Christie, that’s a fact.” *
“Bat that isn’t all, Alfred,” sne continued.
“My dress maker has just sent me word that
she forgot the blue trimmings lor my dove
colored silk, and so I shan’t have it ready to
wear at Colonel Hamlin’s to-morrow evening.”
“ The victim of a milliner and mantua ma
ker!” said her brother. “On the whole, Chris
tie, you are an amiable girl, but I don’t sup
pose that the most exemplary of your sex
could stand such a conjunction of trials and
sufferings. A ruined bonnet and an unfinished
dress? It’s too much. I stand appalled be
fore such miseries!”
A loud, hearty laugh concluded, as was most
fitting, the mock sympathy of Alfred Jarvys’
speech; though, to tell the truth, he com
menced it with a benevolent intention of en
tering fully into his sister’s feelings a\td disap
pointments. But his sense of the ludicrous
was keen, and his relish of a joke intense, and
the latter carried the day.
Christine Jarvys drew bade; with au unusual
display of dignity.
“ 1 see bow it is, Alfred,” said she ; “ you’re
making fun ot my troubles, after all ; I
don’t want any more of your pretended sym
pathy.”
“ Well, now, it is really too bad,” said he.
“ I’m just as sorry lor the little girl- as I can
be,” he added, leaning forward once more and
seizing her small wrists. But as though his
sister’s cup of afflictions was not yet filled to
the brim, a jet bracelet, exquisitely mounted
with carved ivory, snapped under the, young
man’s hand. Christine gave a laud shriek, as
the beautiful, fragile toy fell to the lioor, scat
tering on the carpet its fragments of daiuty
workmanship.
This was too much. Christine Jarvys fell
back in her chair and burst into tears. Her
brother saw this was no time tor joking, and
with real concern on his lace, he put.his arm
round his sister.
“ I’m so sorry, Christie,” said he, “1 really
wouldn’t have done it for all the world. Come
now, kiss me and make it up, and you shall
have anOiher bracelet, handsomer than this.”
“ I don’t want another,” sobbed the petted
girl. “ Uncle Robert gave me that on my last
birthday, and I wouldn’t have had it broken
for all the world. I know what your sympa
thy is good lor. and that yon are lnugbiug at
me all the time.”
Look up, and see if I am,” said the youug
man. “ Come, Christie,” he added, “ dou’t
pout any more. Forget all about your troubles
and go out and have a sail, and a song with
jne ; it’s high time we were off.”
£ r i-tU cckli) (Constitutionalist.

“I can’t with you, Alfred. Don’t
for me ” she said, hugging the luxnry of her
grief.
1 “ Well, then, good by; when! came back,
i two I ours hence, I hope I shall find a better
i d.sposed little sister,” said the yotmg man as
, lie rose up, a little annoyed that his attempts
to appease the girl met with no better success.
1 He kissed her forehead, for her cheeks were
hidden in her hands, and then he went out.
Christine Jarvys sat still in the moonlight,
and listened for her brother’s steps. She heard
them go swiftly down the long gravel walk and
pause at the front gate, while he talked with
the gardener. She look her hands from her
eyes and looked out, and the silence and bennty
of the night reproved her. The batter part of
her nature rose up, and showed her that she
had been unjust hud irritable. Despite all the
faults of her education, lit had fine instinct,
and a generous, exuberant nature. She sprang
up and ran down stairs, and out into the gar
den. Her brother had gone some distance down
the road,but her voice reached him and brought
him back.
“Alfred,” said she, putting her arras about
her neck, “I’m very sorry I was so cross to you
just now, but I was so fretted, you know.
Tisn’t any matter about the bracelet; and
I’ve come out to kiss you good-by for two
hours.”
“Whatl are you not going with us ?” he said.
“Run back and get your bonnet.”
I “ I can’t, dear Alfred,” she replied. “ Mrs.
Melvyn sent me a message that she would pass
an hour with me tills evening, and I promised
to be at home. But I hope you’ll have a nice
sail.”
She put up her rosy lips, and her brother
kissed them warmly.
“Good-bye, Christie,” said he. “Be a good
girk, and I shall be back in a couple of hours.”
And so they parted at she garden gate ; and
the last chapter of Alfred and Christine Jar
vys’ life togelher was closed without sign or
warning. Its pages had been made up with
the pleasant years of their childhood and youth,
and all the lines had been written in light and
gladness. But in after years those last words
and that last kiss were to the heart of Chris
tine Jarvys like golden blossoms covering the
tendrils of memory, which took their deep
root in that last hour of her brother’s life.
Alfred and Christine Jarvys were orphans?
They had, however, been adopted by their
father’s brother and his wife. The gentleman
was a wealthy banker, and as lie had no chil
dren of liis own, he and his wife had lavished
their agection on their nephew and neice.
No wealth had been spared—no luxury it
could purchase forgotten in the training of the
young orphan boy and girl. Their uncle and
aunt made earthly idols of the children who
had. fallen to them, and they grew up with no
idea of the sorrow, and trial, and discipline,
which are the heritage of the sons and daught
ers of men. They boy, with his dark, hand
some face and fl shing eyes, in which spirit
and mirth were forever at strife, was a perfect
antithesis to Christine, whose fair countenance
was the bequest of iier mother.
Alfred had graduated with high honors at
college. Christine, who was two years young
er, was accomplished after her age and social
standard; but though her life of ease and
luxury had weakened and warped her heart and
soul, still the good seed waited in the warm
soil, which would quicken it into life and
blossoming.
Mr. and Mrs. Jarvys resided in town; but as
they grew older their annual visits to watering
places became irksome, and they at last pur
chased a handsome country house in the lake
district, and thither the family repaired every
summer. — t
It was a beautiful spot, locked up in rare
shrubberies, with gardens and groves; and, as
the master am’ mistress ware extremely hos
pitable, their country home was frequently
crowded with company, and so the brother and
sister spoi led and dreamed away the summer
in the midst of scenery that was a constant
picture and poem to the head that could re
ceive it.
Mr. and Mrs. Jarvys had been suddenly sum
moned from borne on some busiuess, at the
time of which I write, and it changed that the
brother and sister were left alone, as the guests
they were expecting did not arrive until a week
later.

Christine Jarvys went slowly up to the house
in the pale moonlight. The shadow had gone
off from her face. She had quite forgotten her
spoiled bonnet, her unfinished dress, her bro
ken bracelet. She gathered a few sprays of
mignonette, and some carnations—for flowers
Hanked each side of the front walk—and then,
.after a long pause-on the front steps, in which
she did true and loving reverence to the night,
she went into the parlor. A gentleman rose up
from -wb* -hr formed her tb.'iVshT»"had i
brought her a message from Mrs. Melvyn. The
lady had been surprised that evening by the un
expected arrival ol her parents, and would not
be able to fulfill her engagement with Miss
Jcrvys.
The bright eyes of the young heiress searched
the speaker’s face, as he delivered his message.
It was a fine one, with a thin delicacy of out
line, and a thoughtful, earnest expression, like
the Hash and change of Alfred’s ; and the lips
had a smile not frequent nor mirthful, but full
of grave sweetness, which matched the eyes.
“ Will yon take a seat?” said Christine, as
the gentleman concluded his errand.
“ Thank you. I fear I shall detain you,” said
the young man, taking his lint, evidently sup
posing tjje invitation merely conventional.
“ Oh, no,” she said. “ I am quite alone, ns
my brother has gone, out on the lake for an
hour or two.”
The gentleman looked in the girl’s face for
a moment. It was a steady, searching gaze,
yet by no mennS'iustructive. He was satisfied
that her invitation was a sincere one, and re
sumed liifs •seat;!’ * 1
“ You are a friend of Mrs. Melvyu’s, I con
clude ?” said Christine.
“ My older brother, who is dead, was a friend
oi her husband’s,” he replied. “ I am, for the
next six months, a tutor of her two sons.”
Somehow, the better instincts of the flattered
heiress recognized the true manliness of her
guest in her brief, candid answer. There was
no question that the tutor was a gentleman, in
the truest meaning of the word ; a meaning
that comprehends certain indigenous qualities
of the heart and soul which no social grafting
can confer.
“ Well, 1 am a woman, you know,” said
Christine, smiling the bright, frank smile which
filled her face with light and sweetness, “and
have my legacy of curiosity; but I will not ex
ercise the prerogative of my sex further than
ro aslt-vou one question more, What is vour
name ?" *
“ Charles Winthrop,” he replied. “It is
known neither in camps nor councils, nor iu
tho world of letters; it is famous nowhere;
and in the wide world its best merit is, I
believe, that it is precious to a very lew
hearts.’ l
“ You arc a-very strange man,” thought.
Christine Jarvys. Her guest smiled quietly to
himself. “Did he guess what I was thinking ?”
wondered Christine. ~ -
After this, she could not tell how they glided
°ff into an animated conversation on various
matters. Christine was glad enough to find a
man who led her out of herself, and whose
speech had some nerve and force in it; who
never availed himself of an opportnnitv to
turn a pretty compliment to herself, but who
stimulated her own thoughts, who was full of
suggestion mid appreciation ol meu-, books,
and the world in general.
At last, in a pause of the conversation, they
heard a sudden grasp, and rush of the wind
outside.
“Dear me! what does it mean?” said Chris
tine, as she and her guests rose and hurried to
the window.
It was it strange sight, the great cloud com
ing up from the East., and shutting out the
stars. The grace and beauty of the night sud
denly vanished. •
“Oh, how dreadful!” exclaimed Christine,
and she shuddered, standing by the tutor of the
young Melvyns.
“ That depends upon the eyes with which we
look at it,” said tiic young man, with his
grave, sweet smile ; and it was evident that to
his eyes the cloud had no dreadful voice or
language.
This thought came into Christine’s mind as
she stood by the window. It was followed by
another, which struck all the color from her
cheeks.
“ Oh! what will become of Alfred, if this high
wind should overtake him !”
“ Does be know how to manage a boat ?”
asked Mr. Winthrop, with a good deal of inter
est.
“ Not in a storm,” she replied"; “ but Ben
Grant, who has charge of the boat, is an old
sailor; still I can’t help fceliug alarmed.”
“ I thiuk there is no cause for alarm,” said
he; “nu 3 then, there is no thought to calm
our fears like the blessed one that God is over
us in all danger.”
Christine’s eyes, lifted to her guests, grew
lull of a strange awe and wonder. Truly this
man was unlike any she ever met.
Theu the storm broke with a wild cry. The
great branches rocked and wrenched under it.
The thunder fairly shook the foundations of
the great house, and Christine’s heart filled
with fear for her brother.
But the storm did Dot last long. Swift as the
wind arose it fell. The black wlugs of the
cloud dropped slowly away ; and there was a
great calm. The st irs looked out again.
“It is time Alfred was here,” said Christine.
At that moment the front gate opened sharp
ly, and a youth of about sixteen burst into the
parlor. His hung in draggled locks about his
paleface; his clothes were dripping, and he
stammered out. iu an agony of fright and ter
ror, “ The boat’s gone down ! The wind up
set her. Won’t anybody go to their help ?”
If you had Iteard poor Christine’s shriek
then! Mr. Wintnrop caught her, or she would
have fallen. But# ere was no time to be lost.
He laid her on the'tofe ; and he did not know
that his lips uttered the prayer which was in
his heart, and that Christine heard it: “ Heaven
have mercy upon yon!”
Then th e youg man rushed out of the room ;
but his hostess sprang up, and swift as a deer
overtook him at the lront door.
“ Oh, you'will save my brother !” she cried
imploringly.
“Heaven be witness that I will try!” said
he; and he was gone, and the boy followed
him.
Mr. Winthrop was an excellent swimmer,
and though the lake was some way off, he was
only a few minntes reaching it, for his feet
seemed scarcely to touch the ground on his
way. He paused ortce duly, to ask the boy,
who had followed, but could not keep up with
him, a few necessary questions. He ascertained
that he was the son of the boatman, Ben Grant.
Isis father had been suddenly summoned from
home that evening, and "the two young men
had persuaded him to go out on the lake with
the sail-boat, which he was not accustomed to
manage alone. They would, however, have
been safe enough, if it had not been for the
sudden squall of wind which overtook them
before they could reach the shore, and, in at
tempting to turn the boat around, she upset.
The boy swam to the shore, and hnrricd to
Mr. Jarvys' for help, as that gentleman’s iiouse
was nearest to the lake. He fancied botli the
young men could keep their heads above water
until assistance could be procured. And with
prayer that it might "be so, Charles Winthrop
rushed toward the lake at the point the boy in
dicated.
The moon sailed out from the frayed edges of
the clouds, and looked down upon- the fretted
waters. In the distance the young man
thought he discerned a head sinking and rising;
he plunged in, and was not Jong in reaching it;
and with great difficulty conveyed the nearly
drowned man to the shore.
Ben Grant had just arrived there. The
honest-hearted old man was full of alarm and
grief at what had occurred, lie looked eagerly
at the pale, unconcious face which Mr. Wiu
llirop laid down on the sands.
“ I’ts Mr. Reynolds,” said he.
And where was Christine’s brother ? The
small sail-boat was drifting ttf and fro on the
lake. The two men swam out to it, after con
signing Mr. Reynolds to the care of Grant’s
son.
By t’nis time all trace of that wild cloud was
wiped off front the face of the skv. The stars
and the moon looked down bright and calm on
the pale face of the men. They searched for
an hour in silence ; and then they found Mr.
Jarvys. They drew him up tenderly and laid
him in the boat; and as they thought of his
sister at home, Doth the young man and the
old one felt that they would gladly lay down
their own lives if they could restore him.
The young dead face had in it no trace of
pain or struggle. No wonder the strong
men -wept as they laid the body dowu in the
boat.
For nearly two hours, that seemed longer
than the rest of her life, Christine had watched
and waited. The servants all gone out, with
the exception of her own maid, who tried to
comfort her mistress as she sometimes sank
down into stolid despair, and then rose up and
wrung her hands, and wandered through the
rooms, full’ of agony. At last her ear caught
the sound of footsteps outside. They were
bringing their burden up the walk.
“ Carry him in by the side door, and f will
go up and try and break the truth to her,’? said
Mr. Winthrop, in a low voice, to the men ; but
at that moment a slight figure ran down the
steps, and rushed toward the lifeless form. The
light of the moon fell brightly on the dead face.
Christine staggered back.
“ Is lie drowned?” she said, looking up in so
pitiful away that the men could not speak; but
she looked in each face, and read her answer
there ; and then Christine lay on the ground as
unconscious as her brother.
Mr. Winthrop lifted the poor girl up and car
ried her into the house. Jle bathed her tem
ples, and assisted the frightened maid to restore
her to consciousness. The youth in Christine’s
veins at length triumphed, and she opened her
eyes.
The young man saw that she knew all. She
was of! in a moment, and when he would have
held her back, she sti nek aside his arm, rush
ing out of the room, seemed led by some in
stinct to the one where her brother lav. She
knelt down by him, exclaiming :
“Look up at me,; speak to me, darling ! You
said you’d come back to me in an hour or two,
wheifyou kissed me at the garden gate. Your
d ter e-vn’t ’-V wttfcw*yswD
she loved you better than her own lire. 1 can’t
live without you, darling brother. I must have
you back again. I must hear your voice call
ing sweetly after me, ‘Christie ! Christie!’ as it
used to do. I can’t believe it’s, silent forever !
Oil! Alfred, my heart will break—my heart will
break ! Open your eyes anil smile at me once
more.”
She put down her warm cheek to the cold
pale one, and shuddered as the chill went
through her. When she looked up, Mr. Win
throp was standing by her side.
“Can’t you help me?” she said, as a lost
frightened child that hiul sobbed itself into ex
haustion would have spoken.
“My child,” replied the young tutor, in a
voice husky and broken, “it is God only who
can Help yon now.”
Christine’s broken heart went out, for the
first time, with a new call and yearning after
Ilil, whom in her happiness she had scarcely
remembered, but who, she felt in the hour of
her great sorrow, from which all human -aid
shrank appalled and unavailing, eould alone
give her helpj ind consolation.
“God have pity on me!” she sobbed, and
then the tears fell over her lace, and Mr. Win
throp led her faint steps from the room. Boor
Christine! «
All that night he did not leave her; and oh,
what sweet, and strong and blessed words lie
said to her !—words of faith and trust, and
submission; and for the first time Christine
Jarvys’ eyes were opened, and she saw some
thing of the great Eternal Love ; aud from the
lost earthly love her heart went, as so many
have done, to the heavenly.
When the first gray Hikes of dawn were seen
in the East, Christine Jarvys fell asleep,
strengthened arid comforted.
The next day a telegram brought back Mr.
and Mrs. Jarvys to their broken household.
There was no one to heboid the meeting of the
uncle aud auut with tho nephew who had been
the pride and the joy of their hearts, lie lav
there so lifelike, with something of the old
smile coming back to bis pale lips ; but, alas!
for thy beauty laid low in the morning, Alfred
Jarvys.
* * * # *
Two years Lave passed. It is once more the
time of blossomiug roses, and Christine Jarvys
came out of the front door of her country
home, and again looked upon the fair land
scape.
Somehow those two years had changed Chris
tine, but the chauge was that which comes not
of years, but of character. Something more
thoughtful, more spiritual, had come to the
sweet taco. The memory of that night came
back to Christine Jarvys as she gazed.
“It was just such an evcuiug as this, and
there in that white belt of moonlight by the
gate you kissed me for the last time—oh,
Alfred !” she murmured.
“Miss Christine!” fell upon her ear, and she
started, for the speaker had entered the grounds
by the side gate, and come round to the front
steps so lightly that she had not heard him.
Her face flushed into glad surprise, as she gave
the speaker her hand with the cordiality of a
long friendship.
“ I am glad to see you back once more, Miv
Winfhrop.”
“ Thank you,” said he. “ The three long
months since I left seemed a long time to me,
though they’ve been fully occupied with hard
study. I’ve passed my examination, and have
run down to meet-you and the Melvyn’s .con
gratulations.”
“ You would have had mine without the ask
ing,” said Christine.
“ That is more than I expected,” said the
young man. “It is a night wonderful for
beauty, Miss Christine,” he added.
“ Wonderful for beauty!” 6be repeated ; but
there was something in her sweet voice which
made one think of the tolling of bells. Mr.
Winthrop glanced at her face, and knew what
night her memory associated with this one.
“ I don’t know what I should have done with
out you then,” said the young girl, drawing a
little nearer to the gentleman.
“ It was not I, Miss Christine, it was God
who helped you,” said he.
“ I never could have borne it otherwise,” she
said. “I wonder if I needed that terfible les
son— if without it my life would always have
gone in the old channels of frivolity and self
seeking, with no real aim, or purpose, or
hope!”
Looking on the girl as she spoke, a grave,
sweet smile went over Charles Winthrop’s
lace, but something flickered along the smile,
and up into his eye, which Christine did not
see. He drew nearer, and took, her haud in
his.
“ Christine,” said he—and his voice had lost
a little of its steady poise—“ I must speak what
I have to say in a few words. That sweet ideal
of womanhood which my heart lias so Jong
lingered after has been revealed to me. I do
not believe that I should ever have found it if
it had not been for that night two -fears ago.
Christine,” he continued, “you are rich, and I
am poor. I have nothing to ofler you but a
love that has twined itself so closely around
my life that it seems as though it would be
d«>th to tear it away. Yet, it would not be,

be • No,’ do not let it come from your lips, only
take the hand which now I hold away.”
The litflc trembling hand lay still in his own,
and Charles Winthrop had bis answer. Half
an hour later, walking up and down in the
clear moonlight, lie said to her, “ But, your
uncle and aunt, Christine! Ton know what
value they place on what I cannot give you—
wealth and position.”
The eyes of Christine Jarvys made answer
with her lips, “ They will value my heart more
than those when 1 tell them it is yours.”
And so the sorrow and the joy of two June
evenings were blended together in the heart
of Christine Jarvys ; and ever afteward they
lent a tender sacredness and significance to
each other.

Marsden’s Family Medicine*
Have become a household word in almost every family
from the extreme North to the tropics. It has surprised
many why they have proved so successful. The reason is
that they aro not cure-alls for every disease known to suf
fering humanity, but specific remedies for the various
complaints which they are recommended for. These pre
parations are compounded with great care from the active
principle of wdrugs long and favorably kut.wn for their
remedial eflects in the diseases whifh experience has
proved to he benefitted by their use. Being prepared in
large quantities, under my immediate supervision, guar
antees to the patient a uniformity in strength and a cer
tainty in effect—an advantage whieh the skillfurpharma
ceutist can readily appreciate.
Pectoral Balia
Has proved bo successful in alleviating and curing Coughs,
Colds, Influenza, Asthma, Croup, Consumption, and all
Bronchial Diseases, that it is now adopted by many of our
most eminent physicians as the'most valuable expecto
rant known.
Caißaya Tonic
In all cases of Debility, Loss of Appetite aud Dyspepsia,
will be found invaluable, giving tone and strength to the
system. A.s an Alterative it has proved very efficacious,
removing Blotches, Eruptions, Scrofula, and ail impuri
ties of the blood.
Car initial Ive Syrup
is now recognized by all who have tried it, as the most
reliable preparation that can be used in cases of Diarrhoea,
Dysentery, Flux or Cholera. The past season has added
additional testimony to ts already established reputa
tion-it never having failed to relieve and cure all the
above diseases. '
Sanative I*lll* %r
Have become so well known to all sufferers from Consti
pation, Billious Disorders, Nervous or Sick Headache,
Gout, Rheumatism, Dyspepsia, &c., that comment on
their virtues would seem superfluous.
]3xlract CHuger
Is nothing more than a pure and concentrated extract ot
the choicest Jamaica Ginger Root, prepared by a process
which extracts all the medicinal virtues retaining its aro
ma. It will be found efficacious in Dyspepsia, Langour,
Nervousness, and Indigestion.
Pure Cod Liver Oil.
The great difficulty in obtaining a pure and reliable Oil
has induced me to select and offer this as being strictly
pure, not a fictitious or manufactured article. Physicians
and patients will find this article" can be relied on in all
m*.
cases of Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, and Scroful
ous Diseases.
Insist upon getting Marsdbn's Preparations from
your druggist, and do not allow them to foist on you arti
cles upon which they may make a better profit.

THE EUREKA LEG,

HARVEY L. BYRD/M. D.,
T J ATE PROFESSOR in two of the Medical Col
leges of Georgia, and Surgeon in the late Confederate
Army. This Leg possesses advantages over all others
in use in the Ventilation which its affords the stump,
thereby preserving its health —a matter of 'he fret im
portance to the wearer— and the lessening of friction in
walking, and thus e' abling it to be worn with greater
ease and more continuously. The movements ot its
joints approximate, nioro nearly the natural ones, than
aDy other artificial Leg; anti from the materials of
which they are formed, and the mode of their eon
struction, they are more durable, and 1 ss likely to get

Blue Mass, or any other Minerals, they will cure the
most obstinate eases of CHILLS and FEVER, DUMB
