These unrvalled pills having now acquired
a celebrity and popularity unequalled in the
ANNALS of medicine, and also having obtained
the entire confidence and being used in the
private practice of almost the whole body of
the medical faculty, in the U S Europe, Asia,
South America, the West Indies, and a great
part of Africa, it is unnecessary to advertise
them at length, or to say anything further of
their merits than by stating the complaints
which they are most effective in the cure of,
which are as follows--yellow and bilious fe-
vers, ague, dyspepsia, Group, liver complaint:
rheumatism, enlargement of the spleen, disten
ton ofthe stomach and bowels, incipient diar-
rhGa, habitual costiveness, loss of appetite
and in all cases of torpor of the bowels, where
cathartic or an appetite is needed. They are
mild in their operation, producing neither nau
STA, gripping nor debility.

SHER.M.A.N'S COUGH LOZENZES

coughs, colds, consumptions, whooping cough,

prietor has never known an instance where
they did not give perfect satisfaction. Severa!

year, restoring to health persons in almost eve

have been saved from an untimely grave and
restored to perfect health by using them.
SHERM.A.N'S WORM LOZENZES
Proved in more than 4C0,0OC cases to be infa

occasion long suffering andeven death; grown
persons are very often afflicted with them and

ANY benefit; when one dose of these lozenzes
would speedily cure them.

FEMALE LABOR.

The meetings of journeymen tallors
and tailoresses which have recently ia
ken place in Boston have elected some
remarkable facts respecting the COM
pensation of the latter for their work.
The shirt-makers, it seems, have been
working for SIX CENTS for making a
garment. The following is an extract
from the proceedings of the meeting at
Faneuil Hall on Friday:
One widow lady, by request of the
president, stated her case as specimen
of what all had to submit to who work
ed for her employer. Since January
last she had made pantaloons, with
Straps, for twenty five cents pair, and
had been obliged to take her pay in or
ders. One dollar in cash was all she
had received since January.
Another said that she did not take
orders, because she always wanted to
lay her money out just as she pleased,
but she worked for less than those of
her companions who took orders.
The president asked her how much
deduction she made for cash?
The speaker replied: "I have con-
siderable pride about some things, and,
to tell you the truth, | do not like to
tell in public what get.''
The president then said he hoped the
pride of no member would prevent her
from stating facts which it would be
useful to have disclosed.
/ Well, then, y answered the relator,
'fffor pantaloons, with two pockets and
i watch fob, get only TEN CENTS"
a contemporary pronounces this
monstrous, and with good reason
Can we wonder at combinations among
working people, weak poor women,
when heir employers grind them down
to standard of wages which cannot,
by any possibility, yield the necessaries
'of mere existence?

TIE SPIDER.

Ry WIN. E. CLAIMING.
IIabitant of castle gray,
Creeping thing in sober way,
Visible sage mechanician,
Skillullest arithmetician,
Aged animal at birth,
Without Joy Or idle mirth,
Clothed in famous tunic old,
Vestments black, of many fold,
Spotted nightly with gold;
Weaving, spinning in the sun
Since the world its course has run,
Creation beautiful in art,
Of Gods providence part
What if none will look at thee,
Signing for the humming bee,
Or great moth with heavenly wings
Or the nightingale who sings p
Curious spider, thou'rt to me
Ola mighty family.
Tender of a mystic loom,
Weaving in silent room
Canopy, that happy yies
With-the mortal fabric wise;
Adam wondered at thy skill,
And thy persevering will,
That continueth to spin,
Caring not yellow pin,
For the mortals' dire confusion
Sadder in profound conclusion
Than astronomer at night
When he brings new worlds to light
Heaven has furnished thee with tools
Such as meier heap of fools
Have by dint Of sweat and pain
Made for use, and made in vain.
When mild breezes hither straying,
Sweetest music kindly playing,
Raise on high the whispering leaves
And the covering of the sheaves,
Thou art rocking, airy thing,
Like proud exalted king;
Conquerer thou surely art,
And majestical of heart.
There are times of loneliness
When a living thing we bless;
Times of miserable sin,
Cold without and dark within;
Then, old spider, happily l
Seek thy busy factory;
Always finding thee at home,
More forecasting e'er to roam;
So we sit and spin together,
In gayest, gloomiest weather.
