If any desires to live wisely and happily, let
him take the Journal OF Health and follow It's pre-
cepts.
4 Above all qudekery, in the planest language-it is
filled with words of wisdom. Every mother ought
TO read it Buy pound less of tea, and take 1t.
From the Western Monthly Review, CINCINNATI (Ohro)
We have seen some numbers OF. this periodical
The writing is generally chaste, simple, intellgble,
perspicuous. OF all earthly physical interests,
it touches infinitely the most important. The max
inns of wisdom and experience treasured on the sub
ject, are impaired in words, which he who may
read and understand. There IS no family IN the
Union, That would not be benefited many times the
price OF its publication, by reading, aud perpendmg
its contents.
We are clear, that, as far it goes, have read
no similar work, so calculated to subserve tho inter
ests and wel-being Of the community, in relation to
health, in equal degrees, and we wish that the
prudence and good sense Of the community, may
cord to this work liberal patronage.
From the New York Evening Post.
I The Journal Of Health is periodical which we al
ways announce with pleasure to our readers on the
Appearance Of each successive number. Its object ~
good, and It's articles good, containing not only
an abundance Of excellent precepts, but those so
ogreeaby set forth and illustrated, and so various in
their character, that they connot fail to accomplish
what have been pronounced the two great ends of nu-
thorship, instruction and amusement The editors
know how to seize hold of attention, ond win men to
kheir SIDE. They do not attempt to drive them by
long and tedious dlsqusition abstract points of
medicine; but deal out, instead short practical hints,
and plain rules Of conduct which all can appreciate

Journal of Misunderstanding on tho merry sons Of
EscuapIus WHO conduct this pleasant and useful
hebdorneda! IL is one Of the most entertaining pc-
hodicaIs we have ever met with; and there is tone
,f sincerity and visible adherence of quackery in
Is spirited essays which cannot fail to recommend it
all classes of readers The style Of its writers is
burc and classical yet perfectly adapted to the I'M
herstandng Of all The object is the prevention of
liseuse rather than prescription for its actual exs
encc. -rt.
The Journal OF Health, No. 10, says the New
York American, is before U.S. and It's character as an
Imuslng and instructive miscellany, written without
,cdantry and free from anecston Of science is well
