services are no longer required by the govern
ment and that Eli Moore is to succeed him.
MIR. Craig has always been most abject fol-

the Agrarian and Fanny Wright party, he
must have the preference, his views of things
being more in accordance with those of the

TO MOTHERS.

Messrs. E. Chase e. Co.-Gents.-Hearlng
much said about the extraordinary effects of the
Resurrection or Persian Pills, upon those about to
become mothers, we were induced to make trial Of
them. My wife was at that time the mother of five
children, and had suffered the most tedious and ex-
cruciating pains during and after her confinement
Of each. She had tried every means and taken
much medicine, but found little or no relief She
commenced taking the Persian Pills about three
months before her confinement cher health being
y poor about this length of time previous) and in
short time she enabled by their use to attend to
the cares of mother to family until her con-
fnement. At the time she commenced takng the
Persian Pills. and for several weeks p evious, she
was afflicted with d'y hard cough, and frequent
severe cramps, which the use of the Pills entirely
removed before using half box. 1t is with the
greatest confidence that we advise all those about to
become mothers to make use Of the Persian Pills.
All those that have taken them in our neighbor-
hood have got along in the same easy manner, and
are about the house in a few days. There does not
appear to be half the danger Of other dangers setting
in after confinement, where these Pills are tsken.
We untedly say,let none neglect taking them, for
they in the reach of the poor we'll as the rich
We are truly thankful that there is q remedy which
females easily procure which tends to lessen the
world of suffering, which many of them have to bear
and perhaps save the lives of thousands which would
otherwise be lost.

The Resurrection. or Persian Pills.

The name of these pills originated from the cir
cumstance of the medicine being found only in the
cemetares of Persia. This vegetable production
being of peculiar kind, led to experiments as to
ita medicinal qualities and virtues In half a cen
tury 1t became established medicine for the dis
eases of that country. The extract of this singu-
Reproduction introduced into some parts of Eu-
rope in the year l7s3 and used by many celebrated
Physicians in curing certain diseases, where all 9TH
er medicine has been used in vain. Early in the
year 1892, the extract combined with certain
vegetable medicine imported from Dura Baca, in
the East Indies, and formed into Pills. The admir-
able effect of this compound upon the human sys-
TEN, led physicians and families into its general
use. Their long established character their unver-
sal and healing writes the detergent and cleansing
qualities Of their specific action upon the glandular
part of the system such as will sustain their re-
Putation and general use in the American Repub-
lie.
