Man.
There is a time, we know not when,
A point, we know not where,
That marks the destiny of men,
To glory or despair.
There is a line by us unseen
That crosses every path;
The hidden boundary between
God's patience and His wrath.
To pass that limit is to die,
To die as if by stealth—
It does not quench the beaming eye.
Or pale the glow' of health.
The conscience may be still at ease,
The spirits light and gay;
That which is pleasing still may please,
And care be thrust away.
But on that forehead God has set
Indellibly a mark—
Unseen by man, for inan as yet,
is blind and in the dark.
And yet the doomed man’s path below
Like Eden may have bloomed—
He did not, does not, will not know
Or feel that he is doomed.
He know3, he feels that all is well,
And every fear is calmed;
He lives, he dies, he wakes in hell,
Not only doomed, but damned. *
O 1 where is this mysterious bourne,
By which our path is crossed,
Beyond which, God Himself hath sworn
~'J£liat he who goes is lost V
How far may we go on in sin?
How long will God forbear ?
Where does hope end, and where begin
The confines of despair?
An answer from the skies is sent—
Ve that from God depart,
While it is called to-day. repcut,
And harden not your heart.

The Novel of the Ages.
Thackeray once said that there was noth
ing now under and including the sun. King
Solomon made a similar remark. A novel
lately published illustrates the saying, who
ever originated it. It is called by various
names, and is familiar to every novel reader.
The principal characters are our time
honored young friends, Charles and Angeli
na, formerly Lubiu and Chloe, once Gory
don and Phillis, alias Romeo and Juliet, and
so on to the remotest antiquity.
Their principal speeches are as follows :
f/g—“Adorable creature! will you be
mine ? I oiler you my heart and hand, to
gether with superior inducements for accept
ing the same, consisting of a brown stone
front, an unincumbered real estate and first
class securities.”
She —Object of my affections ! Your terms
are entirely satisfactory to me, and no doubt
will be equally so to my papa, to wlmm I
beg leave to refer you.” (Falling inW> his
arms.)
These are plagiarisms more or less direct
from the same old story, published at any
timo during the world’s history between this
and the invention of letters, which is not
due to Professor Cadmus, by-the-by, but
to Aam-Ah-Kim-lio, twenty thousand years
before his time. He published the first edi
tion of the story in China, even then a ven
erable tradition.
In the editition of 1500 it appears as fol
lows ;
Hee —“Sweet lady ! I prithee reward with
thy love thy lover trae, who pledges thee his
uand and heart. Certes I offer thee no un
equal dower. These goodly towers and these
broad domains shall call thee mistress, and
gold shall fill thy coffers.”
She —“By bosom’s lord, thy nobleness is
well deserving my poor love, and well I
trow, will win my sire’s consent. Good faith,
in heaven’s name seek him.” (Let’s down
tier bach hair and swoons. J
Similarly in A. D, 1000, they courted thus :
Hee —“Payre Ladye, bend thine eyne on
thy true knight and reward his devoir with
thy love. By’r Ladye ! hee layes at thy feet
guerdon meete for prize so high. My cas
tle’s strength shall bid defiance to ye caytiffe
foe, and gallant knights on yonder broad
desmense lay lance in rest to winne thy
„ smyles, while churlish boors and misbeliev
tngTtfewes shall furnish theyre broad pieces
for thy largesse.”
Shee— “Alack, Sir Knight. I yield me
true captive to thy wordes, succour or noe
succour. My ransomo is thy dowrie rich.
Hie thee from my bourre to ye Kuight my
sire, and bid him greet the Sonne. (Shee
■amines inn the knight hgs armes.)
And in like manner through the early Sax
on and ancient British dialects—which would
be more auintelligible than lovers’ speeches
generally are, —the Latin and Greek, up to
tlie original Chinese as aforesaid.
The Irish version is :
“Musha darlint, it’s dyin’ I am for ye this
blessed mini t, glory be to God! The she
bang is lonely widout you, Judy; come
tieushla, there’s an illigant patch of two dirty
acres or so, with praties aud pighs galore,
and maybe a pound or two in his riverance’s
hands, waitin’to call you misthress.”
“Be aisy, Pat, ye’*e the divil’s own boy
lor blarney, God knewns ; sure the onld
man’Abeyant, aud when ye’re decent and so
ber you might ax him.”
The Scotch version reads thus :
“Eh lassie ! will ye talc me for your ain
joa ? There’s nae luck about the house til
y e bide in’t ; and tlio bonnie farm and the
wee bit siller is uae sic bad investment.”
“Hoot awa, mau ! dinna sash me wi your
speerin. I doot ye mean wee], sae bid awa
man, bide awa ; the auld man’s by, and ye
may e’en settle the caso wi’ him.”
The display of emotion is omitted by the
last two ladies, but their sentiments are the
same as the others, and fortunes of the gen
tlemen not different. Charles goes to Par
liament and Pat to the Common Council,
Hir Reginald is elected to the Round Table
and Romeo to the Council of Ten—or would
have been if he hadn’t poisoned himself, —
while Donald sits with the elders in the kirk,
and is as fat, respectable, and uninteresting
us any of them.
The chapters from which the foregoing
specimens are taken wind up with these
words : “To be continued’ ’—which is true
iu every sense of the word. The rising gen
eration will please take notice.—AT. Y. Even

Revival oi’ Lotteries.
It is with unspeakable anxiety and sorrow
that wo witness the increasing efforts to re
vive the lottery system in our land. Its
principle is that of all gambling, aud cannot
be discriminated from that of winning mon
ey at the card table. In both cases it is the
risking, on chance, of smaller sums, in hope
to win much larger sums. In both cases the
evil effect is the same: to discourage steady
" industry aud patient virtue, to create a de
sire and hope of suddeii wealth gained with
out labor, to stimulate a passion for the
excitement of chance risks, to render certain
the disappointment aud impoverishment of
the many for the enrichment of the few, to
demoralize our youth, and to occasion re
salts fatal to individual and family prosperi
tyvand even to life itself.
Nothing of this is altered because the
profits may be given, in whole or in part,
to some religious or benevolent object. The
evil principle abides, and the injury to pri
vate and public morals is not prevented.
Nay, the injury is increased by the sanction
given in the sacred uame of religion or
charity. At the same time the cause of re
ligion and beuevolence is injured by the
comtempt induced in many minds as they
see its representatives stooping to the evil
devices of a corrupt world. This is the more
certain, because such hasjbeen the sad expe
rience of communities where lotteries have
been tolerated, that laws have been passed in
nearly or quite all of our States for their
prohibition, and in some cases the subject
has even been introduced into the State
Constitutions. What a double descent into
sin it is, therefore, when those who claim to
represent virtue, education and piety, violate
the spirit and letter of the civil law, as well
as the precepts of ordinary morality!
This revival of lotteries is largely due to
the example set in the charitable fairs, fes
tivals and bazars of the last ten years. The
grab-bags, ring cakes and raffles at such
places have been naturally followed by the
gift concerts, Chicago Opera House drawing,
and San Francisco Library lottery. The
latter produced in California the universal
fever of excitement, followed by the chill of
disappointment, in some eases fatal, which
may be witnessed iu Cuba, Spain, Italy and
other countries which are still cursed with
the lottery system. Years will pass before
the evil influence of that one act will cease,
especially as the legislature was induced to
sanction it by an enabling bill, in direct de
fiance of the State Constitution! That good
mxn were so blinded as to participate in that
transaction, makes the crime worse; for to
the immorality of the lottery is added the
prostitution of goodness!— Advance.
Every Teacher a Pastor.
Every teacher should keep watch over his
pupils. If one is absent be should be first
to discover it, notice it in the class, inquire
the reason, go and sae the absentee, if sick,
comfort and help him. Every teacher should
carefully learn the spiritual condition of
every pupil. It can be done in the class,
and in a way that will make the scholar
grateful for the interest there manifested.
It can be dono at a pupil’s home, where
every teacher should go and see each mem
ber of his little flock, and that several times
a year. Sometimes the call can be social,
sometimes spiritual chiefly, and often or al
ways the two can be united, blended.
Sometimes the teacher can find his scholar
alone or can take a walk with him alone,
and thus have good opportunity to draw out
the scholar’s state of mind, lie can mani
fest and have an interest in the secular af
fairs of the pupil, and sometimes engage
with him in them, even in suitable recrea
tions, and thus get the deeper hold on his
attention and affections. The teacher can
and should often or daily pray for liis pu
pils, that they may be saved, that the Sun
day-school instruction may be blessed to
that end. Such earnest prayer that forgets
not to persevere, will be heard. In these
ways the teacher will become a Pastor of his
scholars. They will become his little parish.
Every teacher who becomes truly such, and
so continues, will have souls as the crown of
his rejoicing in the day of account.—Chris
tian Worker.

Why are You so Kind?
A FAIRY STORY.
>
* The sun was going down upon Floreu .e V,
she sat with her mother upon the verandah,
and her face was sad, though the sunlight
fell upon it.
“Mother, I am sorry that I ever had any
thing to do with Mary Arlington.”
“Why so, my child?"
“Because she only uses my kindness for
her own selfishness. I have helped her iu
her lessons, and I got her off when she was
in trouble with her teacher, Miss Atkins, and
you kuow that I let Miss Atkins think that
I had broken the rules, rather than she
should be exposed. And she has never
thanked me. And I know that she says
hateful things about me behind my back.
1 am tired of being kind to her, and getting
nothing but her selfishness for it.”
“Well, my dear, did you act kiudly for
the sake of getting something back? Ought
we not to act generously for our own sake,
even more than for other’s sake?”
“I don’t see any use in being generous,
when it only makes people worse.”
“But our Master says, ‘if ye love them
that love you, what reward (or merit) have
ye? Do not even the publicans the same?’
It is very pleasant to receive kindness for
kindness. But no one is acting as a Chris
tian that is not willing to show kindness and
self-denial to those who are ungrateful aud
selfish.”
Nothing more was said at this time.
Florence had the matter upon her heart
all the evening, and was glad when lied
time came that she might sleep off all
troubles.
She soou fell asleep, aud began to dream.
Now Dreamland is Fairyland. All manner
of queer people are moving about Dream
laud, and very remarkable tilings happen
there. Florence had gone to sleep without
shutting her chamber window, and the wind
must have beeu a little cool; for she dreamed
that the snow lay upon the ground. And
she saw a man with a large bag slung diago
nally across his breast sowing some kind of
seed. It seemed very strange to her to see
him casting seed on snow, and so she dream
ed that she asked him, “Will the seed come
up in the snow?”
When ho heard her lie turned his face,
and.she thought she never saw a farmer with
so noble a countenance. His eyes were large
and sad, and yet there was aiso a look in
them of calm hopefulness.
“We sow our upseed grass on the snow,
in hopes that by-and-by the snow will melt,
and then the seed, sprouted by its moisture,
will come up.” And fixing liis eyes gently
upon her, as if be would mark the effect of
his words, he said, “They who iu this world
would Sow the st-eds of goodness, must* do
as the farmers do, and often sow upon the
bosom of the snow. ”
She awoke—so plainly did his voice sound
in her ears. Rising, she dosed the window
and again fell asleep.
In a short time she began dreaming more
strangely than before.
She thought that she was a woman,
who was living upon a piece of very hard
and rocky ground, trying to plant thereon
some flower seeds. Blit every time she
opened her hand the wind seemed to puff
them away. At last, when her seed were
almost gone, Florence thought that what
had seemed to wind began to look
like birds, and little by little they clianggd
to beautiful spirits; and she saw that they
caught iu their hands the seed that would
have falleu on the rock, and threw it up
ward; and the seed seemed to fly up and up,
till it was gone out of sight.
"While die stood looking up, she thought
that the skies opened ; and she looked
through, anil saw those beautiful spirits
planting the very seed that had been cast
forth out of the palsied hand of tho poor
old woman. No sooner did they touch the
ground than they sprang up again into all
manner of beautiful flowers—more beautiful
a hundred times than auy lilies or roses, or
jessamines, that she had ever seen on earth.
As she stood admiring the wonderful sight,
she turned and saw the very same person by
her side that had been sowing grass seed on
the snow. But now he was clothed radiant
ly, as if the brightest clouds had been made
into garments; and his face, that was beau
tiful before, seemed to her more beautiful
than all tho flowers. Then he looked very
kindly upon her, aud said, “My dear child,
do you not see that only here* and there it
seed fell on tho ground and came up, but
that all the rest went through and were
planted iu heaven? So it is with kindness
among men. The earth catches a few, only,
of the seeds of kindness sown, but all the
rest go through and are planted in heaven.”
At this he laid his hand upon her head,
and such a thrill ran through her body that
she sprung and awoke. Her mother it was
who had touched her, saying, “Come, Flor
ence, it is moruiug. The birds are calling
you. Come.”

James Calhoun Love, only son of Mrs. Caro
line L. Flcwellen, of Columbus, Ga., and grand
son of Hon. Jas. S. Calhoun, died in Montgomery,
Ala., Jan. 20, aged 19 years 0 months.
J ames was a youth of unusual promise. He W'as
gifted by nature, with many excellences and vir
tues of heart and life. Great amiability and affec
tion! of disposition, with a large fund of sprightly
good humor, made him a general favorite among
his companions and friends. His uniform devo
tion to hi3 mother and sister, and his cheerful
obedience and good behavior, together with his
being an ouly son and brother, all made him the
object of unusually tender and deep affection and
solicitude. A few months ago he went to Mont
gomery, and obtained a position with a prominent
business lirm there. And such were his attention
to duty—his business habits and qualifications,
and his manly and consistent bearing and behavior,
that he quickly gained the esteem and confidence
of all who knew him, and also of his employers,
to such an extent, that they voluntarily and with
out his knowledge, more than doubled his salary,
raising it to a very large one, for such a youth.
The last year of his connection with St. Paul Sun
day-school, he obtained the highest award of merit
for Bible reading and general [attention to duty.
A most remarkable occurrence and coincidence
took place, in connection with his death. Three
weeks before his sickness, two of his intimate
companions, about his own age, and himself, at
his suggestion and persuasion, entered into a sol
emn covenant together, that they would from that
day, until death, each of them, read a certain por
tion of the Bible every day, engage in prayer to
God, never taste any intoxicating liquors, live
better than ever before, and try to be consistent
Christians. The night he was taken with “eerebro
spinalj menengitis” lie read live chapters in his
Bible, prayed fervently to God, aDd went to bed,
never to rise from it again, hut died in 7 days.
Another of the two young men who covenanted
with him, was taken with the same feaiful disease
after he was, and died two days before he did.
The remaining young man came with his corpse
to Columbus for interment, thus following to their
graves, both of his dear friends, in so short a time,
after they had all given themselves fnlly to God.
Oh, how wonderfully and graciously does God
deal with his children. His mother, sister and
step-father. Dr. W. W. Flewellen, were alt per
mitted to; be with him, and minister to him, in
his last illness. They thought him convalescing,
and out of danger, when he suddenly grew worse,
and in one hour, was dead; which only aggravated
their grief, aud intensified their sorrow. But they
sorrow in hope, and with chastened, submissive
hearts, looking up through their tears, kies the
hand that smote them, and adore and praise the
love and goodness of their Heavenly Father, for
giving them such a son. May his life and death
he most graciously sanctified to the spiritual profit
of his dear family and all who knew him. W.
Doctor T. F. Duncan, died in Abbeville, S. C’.,
Jan. 13, 1871.
He connected himself with the M. E. Church,
South, in 1857, and after a useful and
life, he died in that communion, leaving satisfacto
ry evidence to his kindred and friends, that he had
E xchanged a world of iaU’nse suffering and care,
for a home of joy aud endless peace. He was a
surgeon in the army during the late war, aud for
many years was busy in the practice of his pro
fession, evincing a desire to excel, that he might
accomplish more good to his fellow-mau—and his
life was a practical illustration of the golden rule.
His body was racked with pain, for years prior to
ids decease, and tills, together with the fact that
wife aud child were severely afflicted, caused him
for a season to he tempted to murmur at the Pro
vidence of God, but the conflict past, faith tri
umphed, and he could sty with one of old:
"Though He slay me yet will I trust in Him.”
Dr. McTyeire, when stationed in Montgomery,
Ala., was his esteemed pa6tor and personal friend,
and should he read this brief memorial of a de
parted brother, will feel that pang which ever
follows friendship severed by death. Much might
be said concerning the virtues of the deceased,
hut while living he often expressed a dislike to
fulsome eulogies of the dead, and we forbear to
say more. May God mercifully bless and console
the stricken househould, doubly smitten with grief
and disease, aud unite all at last on that shore,
where sickness and sorrow, pain and death, are
felt and feared no more. G. F. R.

Mrs. Susan Capers, wife of Capt. J. T. Cloud,
of La Place, Ala., died on Feb. sth, 1871, of apo
plexy.
She was born in Sumter Dist., S. C., Jau. 2d,
1833, and lived to be 49 years of age. Her father
was the Rev. Thomas D. Glenn, a distinguished
minister of the M. E. Church. Her mother was a
favorite Bister of that great and good man, Bishop
Capers, of Soutli Carolina. When she was quite
a child, both her parents died, and left her an
orphan. But her uncle, Bishop Capers, took her to
his family, and brought her up as one of his own
children. When she was nearly grown, she came
to Alabama, and made a permanent home in the
family of Rev. Noah Laney, who was husband of
an older sister. Here she continued to live—lov
ing and being loved by every one—a perfect “house
hold angel,” until Aug. 23,1844, when she was
married by her nncle, Rev. James Glenn, to Capt.
J. T. Cloud. A happier and more agreeable mar
ried life was never experienced by husband and
wife. They lavished upon each other the over
flowing affections of their hearts. To her children,
she was the dearest and most loving, of all the
mothers of earth. We have sustained a loss that
nothing but heaven can restore. Farewell, dear
mother, we will never see thy like again, until we
meet above. She was a faithful, devoted member
of the La Place Baptist Church, Ala., and died
very suddenly of apoplexy, living only five short
hours. ’ John J. Cloud.
Maj. Moses Gutton, was born in S. C.,Sept. 4th,
1799, and died in Lanrens co., Ga., Dec. 13th, 1870,
in the 72d year of his age.
He came to Dublin in early youth and soon es
tablished himself as a young man of fine character
and great energy. He was married to Miss Mary
A. Love, of this county, Oct. 1829, who still sur
vives him. He joined the Methodist Church in
1835, living a faithful and acceptable member until
he was called hence. He suffered with rheuma
tism for about 40 years, much of the time unable
to leave his room. I only had two years’ acquain
tance with him, visiting him often, talkiDg and
praying with him. He was a sincere and devoted
Christian. His faith triumphing through great
suffering. He loved very much to talk of faith,
hope, grace and eternal rest beyond the grave.
His great hufflor and affability made it a great
pleasure to visit him. The weary itinerant preach
er always found a hearty welcome and happy
home with him. During his last illness his faith
and trust in God increased steadily. In our last
conversation he said he, knew nothing else but God
worthy of his trust and faith, and looked for a rest
sweet, enduring and eternal. He fell like a hero
with his armor on. God bless his memory and help
us all to meet him in the promised land.

.John S. Matthews, long a citizen of Oak Bow
ery, Ala., was born Aug. 25, 1800, anil died Feb.
4tli, 1871, in the city of Opelika, where he had
but recently settled.
He professed religion forty-four years ago, and
became a member of the M. E. Church, in Georgia,
in which he lived approved and greatly esteemed,
till death released him from labor and suflering.
lie was a timid man in public, but under.a sense
of religious duty, he reared an altar in his house,
and continued to offer thereon acceptable sacri
fices to God. He served the Oak Bowery Church,
as Sunday-school Superintendent for a length of
time, and the circuit, as steward for a number of
years; which office, onerous and arduous as it is
regarded, he filled successfully and admirably. In
deed, he was a model steward, systematic, diligent,
industrious, punctual, always in his place, and
largely generous and liberal. His seat in the
church was very seldom vacant, whether the meet
ing was for class, prayer or preaching. His house
was one of those pleasant homes, where the ser
vants of God received suitable hospitalities, which
will be kindly remembered by them. He was a
man of great integrity, honesty, and veracity,
whose virtues and general traits of character were
worthy of imitation. Hi3 end was peace and tri
umph, his faith took firmer grasp on the blessed
cross, as life ebbed out; and his farewell words to
children and friends should reconcile them to their
loss. He lived and died well, and his works do
follow him. Thos. J. Williamson.
George L. Price, son of L. Price, formerly of
Oxford, Ga., was born in Newton eo , July, 1836,
and was reared under the sacred influences of
Christianity.
He moved with his father to East Florida before
he had completed his collegiate course, where he
remained until the commencement of the war.
He went with the first regiment of Florida volun
teers to Pensacola. Here, while performing all
the duties of a soldier, he embraced religion,
joined the Methodist Church, sent home his cer
tificate to the Flemington Church, where his mem
bership continued until his death. He remained
in the army a faithful soldier and, better, a consis
tent Christian, till near the close of the war, when
he wos wounded at Missionary Ridge, and sent
home, where he remained until Dec. sth, 1870,
when he closed his life at his residence in Marion
county. He was a successful planter, an intelli
gent citizen, being universally respected. His
last illness precluded the possibility of a dying
testimony, as he was speechless soon after attacked,
yet we trust the messenger found him prepared.
“Be ye also ready.” Jno. C. Ley.
James W. Brandon, was born Oct. 22d, 1846,
and joined the Methodist Church, South, in 1866,
and died the 31st Jan. 1871.
Many friends mourn Mb departure, but they are
•omforted by the thought that he sleeps in Christ.
For some years past he has been the only protector
of a widowed mother, who preceded him to the
grave only a few months. Since his connection
with the church he has always been a true and
consistent member, being another example of the
training of Sabbath-school, having attended the
school from almost infancy. He was also Btrongly
attached to the temperance enterprise, having been
a member of the Sons of Temperance since he
was fourteen years old. He had diligently worked
his way to the Grand Division of which he had
been a member some three months. We all deeply
regret his loss, but are comforted by the assurance
that he has gone to the land of eternal bliss.

X rtivered—the usual Winter, commencing in

Course. The

will commence WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23d,
and continue four months.
The Lectures will he delivered juiutly liy the

Special Courses, aud the whole affording a com
plete ciiriculum of medical instruction, elemen
tary and practical.
CLINICS: a Medical, a Surgical, a Woman’s
and a Children’s Clinic, and a Clinic for the Eye
and Ear.
Opportunities for Exercises in Diagnosis and
Prescribing, in Operative and Minor Surgery, and
in Practical Chemistry, afforded ttie student under
careful supervision.
Attention is called to the advantages presented
in this Course for acquiring a practical knowledge
of the Diseases of Warm Seasons and Climates,
constituting the larger proportion of all the dis
eases requiring the care of the practitioner in the
Middle aud Southern States.
The Faculty, thou not exacting attendance on
this Coarse as a condition for the Degree, are bo
impressed with its importance to thorough pro
fessional training, that they eueourage it by cred
iting the Fees on the Tickets of the Winter Ses
sion, and by employing the facilities for board
under their control, so as practically to enable the
student to enjoy its advantages with a trifling ad
dition to tiie cost of tt.r Winter Lectures alone.
Aud in slew of Did proifcioiis made iu it for ele
mentary instruction, they dispense with the re

ceptor, either for admission to this Course, or
for candidacy for the Degree, to those who have

It will perhaps be sufficient to say of these teachers
that they were educated at the Wesleyan Female

in their several brandies. We propose to make the
Atlanta Literary Female Institute a First Class
Boarding and Day School for girls and young la
dies. Wc intend to merit success. The Course
of Study will he that, substantially, of the Wes
leyan Female College, through the Sophomore
Class, aud the method of instruction will be
thorough—thereby enabling young ladies, who
may so desire, to enter the Junior Class of that
deservedly renowned Institution. At the same
time a list of studies and method of instruction
will be selected, adapted to the advancement of
those who cannot take a systematic Course. The
buildings, erected in 18(15, hut newly painted and
fitted up, are sufficiently ample to accommodate
sixteen hoarding pupils, and to that end the rooms
will be supplied witli new walnut bed steads, wash
stands, bureaus and new mattresses, etc., etc., every
tiling necessary to comfort, except bed clothing,
which young ladies must furnish according to
their wants.
The Superintendent, with his family, the teach
ers and the hoarding pupils will reside ill the In
stitute—thus coraposiug one family, not so large
but that the wants and interests of all may be
specifically looked after. Application for hoard
should he made Immediately to the Superintendent.

SIMMONS' Liver Regulator
n —r pin 1 1 MEDICINE, for Dys
pepsia, Headache, Jaundice, Coslivencss, Camp
Dysentery, Sick Headache, Chronic Diarrhea, Af
fections of the Bladder aud Kidneys, Fever, Ner
veousness, Chills, Diseases of the Skin, impurity
of the Blood, Melancholy or Depression of Spir
its, etc.
Most of the ailments here enumerated have their
origin in a diseased liver, which is the most preva
lent affection in this country, and as in many eases
the patient is not within reach of a physician, it
requires that some remedy should beprovided that
would not in the least Impair the constitution, and
yet be active and safe. That such is the character
"df'i!,j eifp t»j
no doubt, the testimony of hundreds will establish.
SYMPTOMS OF A DISEASED
Pain in tho side. Sometimes
j .rip . . the pain is felt under the shoul
-1,1 Y ILK der blade; is sometimes mis
t lnil taken for rheumatism in the
aaHHMi arm. The stomach is affected
with loss of appetite and sickness, bowels iu gen
eral are costive, sometimes alternating with lax ;
the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with
a dull, heavy sensation. There is generally con
siderable loss of memory, accompanied with a pain
ful sensation of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. A slight dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient
complains of weariness aud debility ; lie is easily
startled, liis feet are cold or burning, and lie com
plains of a prickly sensation of tin- ultin ; liis spir
its are low; and although satisfied that, exercise
would be beneficial to liim, yet lie can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact be
distrusts every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend tiie disease, lint eases have oc
curred when few of them existed, yet examination
of tlio body after death, has shown the Liver to
have been extensively deranged.
It should be used by all persons, old and youug,
whenever any of the foregoing symptoms appear.
It is a purely vegetable compound, is not injurious
to tho most delicate constitutions, and will keep
the liver in healthy action if used properly.
Persons living in unhealthy localities may avoid
all billious attacks by taking a dose occasionally to
keep the liver in healthy action.
■■■■■■■■■■*■<■■ For children complain
ing of colic, headache, or
Drpill JITfID sick stomach, a teaspoon
tirhlll H I 11 11. ful or more will give relief.
IILUULn I Ulll Children, os well asadolts,
cat sometimes too much
supper? or eat something which does not digest
well, producing sour stomach, heartburn, or rest
lessness; a good dose will give relief. This ap
plies to persons of all ages.
Many persons, from eating too much, are rest
less at night, or in day time are tigety, wool gath
ering, can’t understand what they read, can’t keep
their thoughts on any oue subject so as to reason
well, or become fretful. One on, two tablespoon
fuis will give relief.
Jaundice.— Take enough Regulator after eating
each ineai, to produce one full action from tiie
bowels every day.
Pregnant ladies will find sure relief from their
headache, costiveness, swimming in the head, col
ic, sour stomach, restlessness, etc., etc.
