Gaiter Boots.
BY ROBIN RATTLEBRAIN, A. M.
O'! dainty foot!
O! gaiter boot!;
To piety you’re shocking!
I only know
Os one thing worse,
And that’s a snoWrWbite stocking.
So neat and clean,
Together seen,
E’en Stoic’s must agree,
To you to vote
What Gray once wrote,
A handsome L-E-G!
The lasting theme
Os midnight dream,
The very soul of sough
Man wants you little
Here below,
And never wants you long I
By Plato ne’er
Sent tripping here;
By Pluto rather given,
TO lead poor man
(An easy plan)
To any place but Heaven!
Yet still I vow
There’s magic now
About a woman's foot,
And cunning was
The wizard hand
That made a gaiter boot!
For while the knave
The gaiters gave,
To mortals to ensnare them,
Mankind he hoaxed,
And even coaxed,
The angels down to wear theml

Gyncli Law iu Parkville, Mo.
The Kansas correspondent of the Missouri
Democrat writes a long letter from Parkville,
M0.,0n the 18th of October. On walking
through that town on the previous day, he saw
a crowd at a magistrate's office, and was told that
there was an item for him. He was told that
an Englishman named Joseph Atkinson, had
been arrested by order of his Honor, Judge
Lynch, charged with attempting of run off a ne
gro girl. The crowd was awaiting the ar
rival of a witness. We quote the correspon
dent's graphic description of the scenes that fol
lawed :
I looked into the office to see the tar and
feather-doomed individual.-- There were at least
fifteen persons in the room, which had the or
dinary appearance of a justice office. I scru
tinized the faces of every one inside.
Atkinson was pointed out to me. He was
sitting on a low form, leaning slightly forward,
his legs apart, whirling his cap between them
round and round, in his hands. He kept up,
also, a very vigorous chewing and expectora
ting process. But no one would have suspect
ed the critical condition ho was placed in
from his countenance. I never saw a man more
apparently unconcerned.
I le was a lair-complexioned, blue-eyed, firmly
knit, rather stupid looking man, about twenty
five years of age. He is a rope-maker by trade,
aud had worked near Parkvile for five or six
weeks past.
It appears that he had tried to induce a ne
gro girl, said to be the property of Widow Hoy,
but employed by Mr. Dale of this place, to go
with him to Bt. Louis, where he proposed to
spend the winter with her and then take her to
a free State. The girl agreed to go but wished
him to take a colored couple, friends of her’s,
along with them. He did not seem to like the
proposition, but finally agreed to do so. The
day of flight was fixed. The colored trio’s
clothes, it is said, were already packed up.—
They intended to Start on Saturday. But the
secret came to the ears of a negro boy owned by
Mr. Hoy—to whom the colored couple also be
longed—and he divulged it to his boss, who im
mediately got a committee of investigation to
watch the white man and procure evidence
against him from the negroes implicated in the
affair. Atkinson’s mistress and two other to
whom tho secret was known—but who had
kept it from the “white folks”—were privately
whipped and questioned till they confessed all
they knew.
Tlie committee of investigation—consisting
of Messrs. J. Wallace, 8. Tolson, John Bird,
Patrick Cooper, M. Pemberton, 001. Summers,
Major Jesse Summers, William Hoy, Col. F.
Burns, J. Millar, J. Hughes, and E. Henshaw,
all men of property and high social standing, I
am told, in this community and in the country
—patroled the city for two nights keeping a
watch on Atkinson and the girl. They finally
arrested and sternly interrogated him. He
gave contradictory accounts of his connection
with the affair, but said enough in the judgment
of the committee, to prove Ins guilt.
Thus the matter stood when I came up.
After a private conversation between the
members of tho committee, tho crowd went, in
side, and seated themselves.
Col. Summers opened tho meeting, by allu
ding to the circumstances that had called them
together.
Mr. Starns called on the committee individ
ually to give their opinions as to the prisoner’s
guilt.
They each declared themselves satisfied that
he was guilty.
Mr. Starns then said that us this was an ex
tra-judicial case—not provided for in the statute
book—it devolved on the meeting to say what
punishment should be inflicted on the prisoner.
The president of the meeting had suggested
that lie bo tarred and feathered, and started out
of town.
The motion was seconded. Those approv
ing of it were requested to hold up their hands.
Every right hand in tho room, except those
of two persons, (of whom the prisoner was one)
were immediately held up.
Mr. Starns—The meeting has decided that
he be tarred and feathered.
Sir. Hughes—“ And lighted.’’
Another voice—“ Let's hang him ; it’s too good
for him."
Mr. Starns—"No, no, gentlemen; tar and
feather is enough on negro evidence.”
Some person in the room objected to this rea
son, aud seemed to think that negro evidence
in such cases was as good as gospel.
Capt. Wallace moved that he be given fifty
stripes, which another person amended by sub
mitting a hundred for fifty; but, by the oppo
sition of Mr. Starns, these motions were dis
agreed to.
A committee of execution was then appoint
ed, aud the meeting adjourned.
Some of the committee went for tar; others
for a bag of feathers; the rest stood guard be
fore the office door. Tur enough was brought
to lieemear the entire population of Parkville,
and feathers sufficient for at least a dozen
eoats.
“Now,” said Capt. Wallace to Atkinson.
“ now, stranger, to save trouble, off with your
shirt”
With imperturbable coolness, ami without
opening his lips, the prisoner doffed his linen aud
flannels. As he wore neither vest nor coat this
ceremony was soon concluded.
“He's obedient,” said one of the crowd, “It’s
best for him.”
“He’s off too d—d easy," said another.
“That's a fact,” said a third.
By this time the prisoner was naked from
the loins upward.
•• Come out here,” said Capt. Wallace, “we
don't want smear the floor with the tar.
biieutly and carelessly Atkinson followed
him.
Messrs. Bird aud Hughes then ent two pad
dles—sticks about a yard long, and broad at
one end—and proceeded slowly (amid the laugh
ter and jests of the crowd, which Atkinson
seemed neither to see nor care for) to “lav' it
on.” at least half an inch deep, from the crown of
his head to his waist; over his arms, hands
cheeks, brow, hair, arm-pits. ears, back, breast
and neck. As he was besmearing Atkinson’s
cheeks, one of tlie operators jocularly observed
that he was •• touching up his whiskers," which,
of course, produced great merriment in tlie
crowd. AU this while, the only outward sign
of Mutel Main that the priorw shiMtsd
was the extraordinary activity in chewing and
expectorating.
“Guess you’ve got enough on—put on tho
feathers,” said an idle member of the commit
tee.
“You are doing it up brown,” said a voice
to the operators flatteringly.
“Yes sur," said one of the operators, with a
laugh, as he took hold of the nag of feathers
and threw a handful on the prisoner’s back.
‘ Pour them on,” suggested a spectator.
“No, it’s better to put them on in handfuls,”
said a voice.
Messrs, Bird, Hughes, Boydou and Samuel
Johnson then took hold each of the end of two
long poles, which they placed so as to form an
extempore St. Andrew’s Cross.
“Sit on there,” said one of them, I forget
whom, to the tarred and feathered person.
“Why, they’re going to ride him on a rail,"
said a voice beside me.
“Serves the d—d scoundrel right,” replied
his companion.
"He ought to be hauged,” rejoined tlie first
voice.
“He's very right to do as he's bid,” said a
person near the prisoner, as Atkinson calmly
put his legs over the poles and sat on the part
where they joined.
The four citizens named then raised him in
the air—placing the end of tlie poles on their
shoulders—and carried him through the street,
which was thronged with people, down to the
wharf and back.
Just as the grotesque procession, amid shouts
of laughter, ironical remarks and other indica
tions of popular opinion, reached the wharf, tlie
steamer Martha Jewett arrived there. I board
ed her; and when I landed again found . that
tho procession had changed into several circles
of talkers, the poles had disappeared and tho
prisoner in his gratis habiliments with them.
He left Parkville that evening.
Tarring and feathering is such an exqmsitely
ludicrous ceremony, that one’s sense of humor
completely overpowers his feelings. A few
more such calmly conducted proceedings as the
one detailed above, will soon convince-outsidcrs
of the impropriety of intermeddling with slave
property in Missouri. J- R-
A Greek Robin Hood.
Tlie French paper haves the following ro
mantic account of the manner in which the vic
inity of Adrianople has been rid of some trouble
snme robbers: ,
The house of a widow residing there was en
tered and robbed of valuables amountng to
seven thousand piasters, her only wealth, by
seven men, who said they were members of the
band of Yani, a celebarted chief, who has gained
great renown in those part •; and the poor wo
man used his name in making her complaint.
This personage is a sort of Fra Diavolo, who
seems to have modeled himself after the brigand
heroes of romance. He is a Bulgarian by birth,
and robs no one but rich Turks, whom he hates,
and has been known frequently to give the pro
ceeds of such an expedition to any poor person
ho might meet.—ls: goes and comes in the vill
ages, where ho is well received aud treated like
a lord. It must be said that the rustic police
are not much protection, for they are too often
connected with the band tbemselvs. This M.
Yani goes through the country robbing the
rich and befriending the poor, protecting the
widow and orphan, and even watching over the
magistrates to see that justice is meted to the
rich and poor alike.
Now, Yani learned that ho had been implica
ted in the robbery, and fully equipped, paid
the lady a visit. Trembling, the poor woman
requested him to leave her the little that rem
ained.
“But I have never taken anything from you,”
said the brigand.
“Are you not, then, Yani?” said she.
“I am most certainly Yani, and I come to ob
tain the description of those who have abused
my name and robbed you.”
Re-assured, tho woman gave the required
description.
“Be content,” said Yani, departing, “you
shall obtain justice. No one stains my name
with impunity, I promise you."
Two days after, Yani brought back to the
widow all She had lost, aud with it the heads of
the seven robbers who had taken it. He had
followed his defamers with a few of his men,
and had avenged bis honor upon them him
solf.
Estate of Daniel Webster.
We extract the following from tho Washing
ton Star:
Mr. Webster has has now-been in Ms grave
very near three years, and his executors have
not yet thought proper to settle his estate.—
More than a year ago, and before they liad the
power to plead the act of limitation which they
now have, they informed those persons, who
had claims against the debts of Mr. Web
ster amounted to sl4o,ooo.but that his property
was valued at only $40,000. More than a year
ago they solemnly promised that iu a few days
they would’ make a dividend of the property
in their keeping, which they have not yet
done.
When they proclaimed that they had sold
Marshfield for the benefit of Mr. Webster's
creditors, they had done no such thing; but had
only sold a variety of lots of land lying on
tho ont skirts of Marshfiield, leaving the home
stead and some three hundred acres of land en
tirely untouched, and in the possession of a mem
ber of his family.
It is alleged that Marshfield cannot be sold
or the benefit of Mr. Webster’s creditors, be
cause his widow had a lien upon it for money
loaned to her husband; it is believed however,
that this allegation is wholly set aside even by
tlie will of the departed statesman. But allowing
this to be true, the debt alluded to never amoun
ted to more than $25,000, whilcjthe unsold prop
erty would probably bring 550.000.
The library at Marshfield contains some 6,000
volumes, and Mr. Choate once gave the opinion
that it was worth $-10,000; and yet this proper
ty, instead of being applied to the payment of
his debts, remains in the possession of his
son.
A few weeks after Mr, Websters death it
was currently reported in Boston and elsewhere
that his friends had raised the sum of $60,000,
which was to go towards paying his debts and
carrying the leading item of his will and yet
this fund baa not been’recognised by his execu
tors.
The promises which have been made cau be
counted by the hundred, and yet not one has ever
been kept. They first promised the creditors
forty, thenJ/iirfyand now twenty per crnLon the
amount of their claims, which latter amount is
as far off as the first
A pious old lady, who was too unwell to at
tend meeting, used toeend her thick-headed hus
band to church, to find out what text tlie
preacher selected as the (bundation of his dis
course. 'Fhe poor dunce was rarely fortunate
enough to remember the words of the text, or
even the chapter and verse where they could be
found; but one Sabbath ran home in hot haste,
and witli a smirk of self-satisfaction on his face,
informed his wife that he could repeat everv
word of the text without missing a single syl
lable. (The text was as follows: “An angel
eame down from Heaven, and took a live coal
from the altar.”)
“Well, let us hear the text," remarked the
good woman.
“Just get your big bible and I will say tlie
words, for 1 know them by heart. Why 1
said them a hundred times on my way ho me.
"Well, now, let’s hear them.

Madame Lagrange and the Pois-'
oned Boatiet.
The Courier des Etas Unis states that Mdme.
Lagrange was present at the last representation j
of Adrienne Lecouvreur, and in the scene where j
Adrienne receives the poisoned boquet, she was
so overcome by her feelings as almost to faint, j
The emotion, it is said, t?as occasioned by r. ,
terrible recollection of a similar situation in ;
which she was once placed, during the early'
part of her professional career. It appears,
that after achieving great success iu the music- j
al salons of Europe, she made a brilliant debut'
ut the theatre. Her second engagement was,
at Pavie, where her youthful talent entirely ;
eclipsed that of a rival Cantatrice. Each rep-1
resentation was for her a new triumph, and
each triumph a defeat for the previous Prima i
Donna. This circumstance created in the •
breast of the oilier a deadly jealousy, and .she;
determined to be avenged, no matter at what•
cost, or by what means. She was iui Italian,
with strong passions, and was not therefore to
be disappointed of her revenge. She was one
of those dangerous Syrens, whoso charms are
sure to fascinate youth ; and Pavie being a uni
versity town, it was not difficult to find an in
strument for her purpose among the students.
She fixed upon a young Venetian, of noble birth
aud of large fortune. By her blandishments
she fairly bewitched this young man, and hav
ing obtained an unbounded influence over him,
he agreed to carry out her design.
At every representation, Mdle. Lagrange re
ceived numerous boqueta, wreaths, &c.; aud
among the boquets that fell at her f|et, was in
variably one of small dimensions composed of
roses only, the perfume of which was delicious,
This homage was always paid after the andante
of the grand Cavatina in Nabucco, on opera
then highly popular. Mdle. Lagrauge always
placed this small bouquet in hgr girdle after
smelling the perfume, and proceeded with re
newed encouragement to the completion of the
song.
On one evening the bouquet was larger than
usual, and the size preventing her from placing
it in her girdle, she handed it to a figurante
who stood near her, to carry to her dressing
room. At the end of the act she quitted the
stage, and was surprised at seeing her dress
ing maid at the wing, and on opening the
door of her room, stared back with affright
on perceiving her lying on the floor, apparently
lifeless! Her cry speedily brought a large
number of persons, and the utmost astonishment
was expressed as to the cause of this dreadful
affair. After endeavoring for five br six min
utes to restore the girl from her death-like state,
a voice was heard, almost suffocated by emotion,
exclaiming, “ The bouquet, tho bouquet,” and
on recognizing Dr. Marozzi, tho physician of
Mdle. Lagrange, there was a general enquiry
what he meant. He, however, gave no expla
nation, but continued to repeat, “The bouquet,
the bouquet.” This mysterious exclamation
served to direct attention to a bouquet which
had fallen from the girl’s hand, and it was ea
gerlviseized.
“What great value do you attach to the bou
quet ?” demanded Mlle. Lagrange.
“That bouquet, unhappy! it is poisonedl”
said the doctor.
A thrill of horror ran through the company,
and the cantatrice escaped thus as by a miracle
the death which had been designed for her, had
scarcely time to recover from the shock, when
the signal was given- for raising the curtain.—
She re-appeared, pale, even under the rouge,
and with a heart wrung with inexpressible an
guish. She sang, however, and played as
though filled by inspiration, and the audience
were frantic with excitement—never had she
received such an ovation.
The doctor, who, it seems, had been in front
of the nouse during the evening, perceived in a
very private box the young Vonitian, and re
marked that his countenance wore a strange ex
pression. Tlie vanquished rival of Lagrange
had partly opened the door, and the doctor as
be passed heard the young man say—
“lt is done—she is dead.”
“Tlie bouquet?” said the Italian ; the young
man made an affirmative sign, aud liastily quit
ted the theatre.
The doctor’s suspicions were immediately
aroused, and he hastened behind the scenes,
where he found that some one had been pois
oned by a bouquet, but it was not Mdlle. La
grange.
The guilty party was arrested, but being re
lated to the nobility and the high dignitaries
of the Church, he was released after a brief im
prisonment ;' she who had conceived and in
spired the crime, was never even arrested.
It was no wonder, therefore, that Mdlle La
grange nearly fainted the other evening on see
ing Adrienne Lecouvrieur inhaling death from
a bouquet. She had forgotten the circumstance
at tlie time, but the power of Rachel has
brought before her that dreadful scene, with all
tlie force of reality.
Death of a Half Century Convict.
An aged colored man, known by the name of
“ Old Bob,’, who has been an inmate of the
Maryland Penitentiary, since 1810, died at that
institution on Wednesday. The history of this
man, aud the circumstances attending his con
viction and incarcerafian have frequently been
rehearsed to the public, and were the subject
of comment by Charles Dickens, in his “Notes
on America," a work published after the gen
tleman had returned from making the tour of
this country. He belonged to a planter of
Charles county, who was rather a severe master,
and in 1802 placed him on board a vessel, with
instructions to allow uo one, not even the son
of tlie master, to come on the vessel and if any
attempt was made to board the vessel lie
should strike them on the head with a hand
spike. In the evening following the issuing of
this ma date, the son of his master, iu company
with two of his associates, approached the ves
sel and attempted to head her; he was warned
not to come on board, by “Old Bob,” who re
peated tlie instructions of his master, aud added
that he would obey the orders he had received.
Tlie young man regarding the language of the
negro as a jest, rushed heedlessly forward, aud
gained u position on the vessel; but uo sooner
had he landed than Bob picked up the hadspike
aud knocked him in the head, killing him in
stantly. Bob was immediately arrested and
lodged in jail. He was tried for murder and
convicted. The circumstances of the case un
der which the deed had been perpetrated, so far
secured the clemency of the Court as to com
mute his sentence to imprisonment fur life.—
He was first p aced in the chain gang, where he
continued until the erection of the Penitentiary
when he was transferred to that institution,
where he remained until his death on Wednes
day.
The period of his confinement was about fif
ty-three years, and he was upwards of eno hun
dred year's old at the time of his death. For a
number of years past lie has l>cen spared all
laborious employment and passed his time in
amusing himself in various ways, such as culti
vating flowers, raising pigs, smoking herring.
&c. So strongly had the habits of a life in
prison grown upon him that on several occa
sions when be was liberated, to test what might
be his conduct, he refused to leave the institu
tion and when the gates were closed upon
him he would weep like a child until he.
was restored to his former position. His
department during the whole period of his
confinements as such that uo fault could be
found with him. He attracted the special at
tention of all who visited the prison, and has
gained, perhaps, a wider reputation bv being a
convict than lie would have done, had not the
calamity befallen him.
From the history of this venerable convict a
lesson may be learned by those who command
that which should not be performed. It is
right and proper that slaves should be obedient
nnto their masters. But in this instance an or
der was given aud performed, which caused the
death of a child, misery to a parent, and the
worst form of servitude to one who was eem
peled to obey the injunctions of his master.

JOHNSON STEWART ROSE, M. D., '
of the Royal Cullego <>f Pbyai-j
§ cions,-and for years Senior I’hy.iiciunaiii
the London Royal lufiiinavy for Dueafis of the
Lungs.
In this age of progrcHt, medical science baa ’
contributed her fuli shiirn to tin* general welfare,!
and that wh’cb shhics r<’«pkndcnt, the brightest'
jewel in her diadi n» ; L her last and greatest gift,

In the tru.itmeul ol C oiuumplivti and k :»di?d ,
idleciMns. The uhsur«i notions, h.wjv- i
miiidiil jncjydiiv contemptible and'
unblushing <|uackt ry, have !■ ng existed in the ;
ircatnr nt of Consumption. u *.f skill and re-'
putation ai» physicians have pr*‘,<'rUj. d uau^oU’i.
1 compounds to be taken into th” atuinach, to cure '
: disease of the lungs, while tho braztm fired quack ;
i held up hie nostrum as the only star of hope lor
I the consumptive—if only enough <?f it were swal-
i l-jwed. The stomach, where disease exists,!
! being the receptacle of all this, i» .4-x>n rendered
j unfit to perform its functions, and the health thus ’
i materially injured. Ail must see the absurdity, '■
• the positive injury ui such a course; the disease •
j i. 4 in tho lungs, not in the stomach; then why, in
• the name of common sem»e, do youftoA apply '
i medicine directly to the lungs! The tiuvanlnge i
i oi lnhalation in Consumption end Throat Difi-j
• eases is, that medicine* iu the {oimof vapor are ■
! applied directly to tho lur.gj where the disease ‘
• exists; the stomach is thus left free to aid in re- ’
’ st >rir.g health, by administering it to healthy, I
life rising ibod. ’There is no case so hopeless j
' that Inhalation will not reach! The means, t>.o, j
; are brought within therench of all, the manner !
of administering the Vapors beings* simple, that
1 the invalid is never inquired to leave home,
I where the baud of friendship and alTectiou I
j tends so much to aid tho physician’s efforts. ’
The Inhalating method is soothing, safe and
i speedy, and co sists in the administration of
! medicines in such a manner that tncy orc con
j into the lungs in the form of vapor, and
■ produce their action at-the seat of the disease. —
i its practical success is destined to revolutionize
l the opinions of the medic. I world, and establish |
i the entire curability of Consumption.
I earnestly appeal to the common seaso of all <
afilicted with lung diseases, to embrace at once i
: tho advantages of Inhalation; and no longer ap-i
I ply medicine to the unoffending stomach. 1
i claim for inhalation a place amongst the priceless
i gifts that nature and art hath given us, that *‘our
< days may be long iu the land/’ and and as tin
j only
Ark of Refuge f r ths Consumptive.
i A method not only rational, but simple, safe and
■ etlicicus.
I To many of my professional brethren through-,
j out the Union I ti nder my acknowledgements
J for thair frank and manly coutsc in testifying to
the merits of Inhalation. I shall bo pleased to
i co-uperftto with them in offering to the afflicted
j the blessings of medicated vapor uihakation in
I the treatment of Consumption.
One word for myself, in answer to those
I claiming tn have inupduQcd tho practice, and to
I the tiibcof imitators who, iv*th brazen impudence
' claliii it a.< their own. 1 both wrote in favor ot
Inhalation and practiced it 16 years ago. The
! apparatus then used, with the medical agents
' employed, achieved only a partial success; I there
fore did not claim for it then those miraculous
' powers which a long practice has since enabled
■mo to give to it. Proof of this maybe found in
'• my work publishcdln 1810.
I Applicants will please state if they have ever
bled from the lungs, if they have lost flesh,
: have a cough, night sweats and fever turns,
I what and how much they expectorate, what th?
! condition of their stomach nnd bowels. The nc-
I cessary medicines, apparatus, &c., will be for-
I warded to any part.

Recommedation ’ y Physicians
ft e the undersigned practitioners in medicine
• cheerfully and heartily recommend Dr. Rose’s
method of treating disease of the Lungs and
[ Throat, as the best aud most effectual cuer in
' troduced in the medical practice. Our convic
-1 tions arc based upon having several of our own
I patients, confirmed consumptives, restored to
' vigorous health, aftcrti few mouthy treatment by
■ Dr. Rose. In the above named diseases the
! application of medicated vapors, inhaled directly
; intothe Lungs, may be justly considered a great
I boon to suiiering humanity, rendering Uon-
I sumption a perlectly curable disease.
i Dr. Rose deserves well of the profession for
i his unwearied labors in bringing tho Inhalating
I method to such a degree of pcriection.

unprincipled men, we have been obliged, to ic. (
sort to very expeusivo measures to protect ourselves j
pocuni.iriiy, and tho public from great injury, by ;
buying and using their worthless counterh its. — j
The comparative pl<un and simple style in wi.ich !
our Pain Killer niu nccii put up, bus made it,
very cany for thoso disposed, to imitate it wry I
success!ully, aa far a* it# external appearance, in *
style es bottle, label, and color of Lie article; but •
ue need not «ay that the compound is a miscra-,
Ke, filthy production, and calculated to do great (
injury to those who might use it with tho c- oti- *
deuce that they have been accustomed to lue the •
genuine Pain Killer. Parties whose bu-bicfa it
is to counterfeit valuable preparations, <l6 it in such 1
a secret manner, that it is almost uscles- to
to punish thvmbylcgal irieaSures, as it !R<!ifli<mii.;
and wo might say Impossible to bring the prooij
lie trio to them.
Considering the great difficulty in protecting |
ourselves ar d the public by prosecuting parties,.
we have been tn a \ery great expense in getting
i up a finely executed
Steel HngTiived Label,
for our botfl?3. We also attach t > our buttles
Steel Eug. a/: 1 Note of Haul, which we issu- a i
our obligation, and to counterfeit’which i" held to |
bu forghry by.tr: laws of the United States, and j
which pu ties will not el ire oUompt to do. T.he j
gn at ex’ ‘.ending the getting up and print-,
ingot t aLb..'a will prevent the. attempt t‘>j
equate) L securing to the public that tie
article li. .. vliaso is the genuine I’errv Davis' I
Faju K-u -.- '..•..mfaetured by Perry Davis & SonJ'
Sqle Propt!-tors.
The Pain Killer will be put up in a new ttyle I
and panel bottle, with the words,
DttVis’ Ve;;csa’i>lo Paiu Killer,,
I blown in the glass. We have discontinued the
i 37A cent bottlesand now put up only four aizre, |
i viz.—12£ ceiits 25 cents, 50 cents, and sl, per ■
i bottle.
ft c have also a very fine Engraving on Stone,,
for the Box labels specifying the contents of the
box, where and by whom manufactured, &c.—
i Wo have also added to our Pamphlet of directions
and ccrtincatcs, a cover beautifully finished, pre
senting on the find.page a very excellent likenqiM
of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the Pain
Killer. The bottle labels, and one label on each»
box has also a correct likeness of Perry Davis,
which it will be impossildc to eouhterfeit succdgs
fwlly.
Wo have been to thtsi expense, that tho public
might have perfect confidence that they were get
ting tho genuine article when they buy a bottle
as above described. To those who have been so
long used and proved the merits of our article, We
would aay, that we shall continue to prepare our
