DR.. Phelps's SternutatOru.

TEHHE great efficacy of this SNUFF consists,
IL in speedily removing Headache, Dizziness
and Distractions Of the Nose or Nasal OrifceS,
produced by sudden changes of atmosphere.
For the removal of Potypus, it is exceedingly
useful, and when it fails of cure, it greatly i'm
pedes the progress of the disease. Experience
and observation have proved the fact that this
Sternutatory or Snuff is vastly superior to any
thing of the kind heretofore in use.

FENHE CHILD'S GUIDE: Comprising Fa

From annals Of Education and Instruction.
The Fourth Glass Book-- The CsiLds Guide
Comprising Familiar Lessons. DESIGNED TO AID
ia Correct Reading, Spelling, Defining, Think.
ing, and Acting. The title of the last work
points out the objects which we think should
be kept in view in forming reading books for
children; and we have seldom seen books so
we'll adapted to them. They describe subjects
which children can comprehend, in Langua pe
which they can underStand,-an can scarcely
fail to interest and instruct, and what is more
important, to exert a happy moral influence.
The Fourth Class Book we have known used
with success. The Chlds Guide we think OBJ.
Viously superior in its plan and execution
From the u S. Literary .4drertiser.
This is one of those little works of which we
might speak highly with clear conscience ;
and, peradventure, without mourning the peril
OF dlspleasing any envious competitor in the art
and mystery of manufacturing school books !;
Tor it seems admirably adapted to fill an exist
ing space in the regular line of infant reading
books. 1t is judiciously made up of concise
simple, and attractive lessons, suited to the
comprehension and tastes Of children between
the ages of six and nine or ten. The subjects
are we'll chosen.
