THE METHODIST ADVOCATE, JULY 17, 1872.
IMPORTANT DECISION.
To Travelers.
We clip the following from an exchange:
In the Superior Court, in Boston, recently, a
case of interest to the traveling public was de
cided. In 1868 Mr. A. J. Coleman, of Boston,
attempted to ride from New York to New Ha
ven, on a coupon ticket, which was rejected by
the conductor on the ground that, although it
was good from New Haven to New York, it
did not pass the holder in the opposite direc
tion. Mr. Coleman insisted that the company
was compelled to receive the ticket, as it rep
resented money paid for a passage between
those points, and he w r as put off the train by
force, receiving such injury as to affect his
health. He sued the New York and New Ha
ven Railroad Company and recovered. The
railroad obtained anew trial, and were beaten
again. On exception to the ruling of the Judge
the defendant obtained a third trial, which ter
minated in a verdict for Mr. Coleman for $3,200.

Beware. —The public in general are cautioned to
look out for the spurious articles put up in imitation

Fathers and Mothers.
If you occupy these relations now, or are about to
do so, study well your constitution. If you hav£ ac
quired or inherited Scorfula or any disease which may
be transmitted to your offspring, it is your solemn
duty to eradicate it. Thousands of children are now
suffering from the effects of poisonous disease trans
mitted to them from their parents. The thought is
terrible. You can save yourselves much sadness and
solicitude and your dear little ones much pain and
unhappiness by the timely use of Dr. Tutt’s Sarsapa
rilla and Queen’s Delight. It will surely eradicate
the taint from your system, or if it has already been
entailed upon your child, give it at once this valua
ble preparation and its system will be renovated and
restored to soundness.
Montgomery Cos., N. C., Sept. 11, 1869.
Dr. Wm. H. Tutt :
Sir —Please accept the heartfelt thanks of a mother
who was well nigh driven to despair by the sad con
dition of an only child. My little boy has been af
flicted with Scorfula ever since his birth, and after
trying every remedy that was recommended, and sev
eral physicians had pronounced him past all hope, I
accidently heard of your Sarsaparilla and Queen’s
Delight. It was so highly recommended that I con
cluded to try it, but I must confess with very little
faith. He has taken nine of the bottles you sent me,
and I am happy in being able to say that he is al
most well; and I believe by the time he takes the
dozen he will be perfectly restored to health. He has
gained flesh, has a fine appetite, and now walks two
miles to school. I shall always remember you with
gratitude. ANN MURRAY.

That Favorite Home Remedy,
PAIN-KILLER,
Has been before the public over thirty years, and probably
has a wider and better reputation than any other proprietary
medicine of the present day. At this period there are but
few unacquainted with the merits of the Pain-Killer; but,
while some extol it as a liniment, they know but little of its
power in easing pain when taken internally; while others
use it Internally with great success, but are equally ignorant
of its healing virtues when applied externally. We therefore
wish to say to all, that it is equally successful, whether used
internally or externally. It is sufficient evidence of its vir
tues as a standard medicine to know that it is now used in
all parts of the world, and that its sale is constantly increas
ing. No curative agent has had such a wide-spread sale or
given such universal satisfaction.
Davis' Pain-Killer Is a purely vegetable compound, pre
pared from the best and purest materials, and with a care
that insures the most perfect uniformity in the medicine;
and while it is a most effective remedy for pain, it isw per
fectly safe medicine, even in the most unskillful hands.
It is eminently a Family Medicine; and by being kept
ready for immediate resort, will Bave many an hour of suf
fering, and many a dollar in time and doctor’s bills.
After over thirty years’ trial, it is still receiving the most
unqualified testimonials to its virtues, from persons of the
highest character and responsibility. Eminent Physicians
commend it as a most effectual preparation for the extinc
tion of pain. It Is not only the best remedy ever known
for Braises, Cuts, Barns, Ac., but for Dysentery or Cholera,
or any sort of bowel complaint, it is a remedy unsurpassed
for efficiency, and rapidity of action. In the great cities of
India, and other hot climates, it has become the standard
medicine for all such complaints, as well as for Dyspepsia,
Liver Complaints, and all other kindred disorders. For
Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma, and Rheumatic difficul
ties, it has been proved by the most abundant and convinc
ing testimony to be an invaluable medicine.
We would caution the public against all imitations of our
preparation, either in name or style of putting up.
