he was a kind-hearted man, abounding with eccentricities;
by nature a lover of the fine arts ; and on his instrument'

duced from his unwieldy instrument were wonderful, and t°
this he added great and rapid execution. The ends of bps
fingers had become by practice broad, covered with Wl's'
and almost without form. Take him out of his profession:
he was a mere child, given to the greatest frivolities. Se led
a single life, and occupied one lodging for years ; wbicb
lodging consisted of a bedroom, sitting-room, and a vacant
apartment,which contained his collection of paintings,engr,,a.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] Helloway's pills are the most
gentle, yet most effective aperients, and therefore better
calculated for a family medicine than any other drug. They
always set the stomach right, rouse the liver, stimulate the
kidneys, and thoroughly cleanse the whole system. Hollo-

stomach induced by luxurious living, sedentary habits, or
other causes. They have restored the emaciated to health
after every ether means had failed. While they are purify-
ing they are strengthening, while regulating they are in,
creasing net vous and muscular power, These pills do not
