Indian Vegetable Pills
OF the NORTH American College of Health.

OF the Nort4 American College Of Heath
This extraordinary medicine is founded upon
,he principle that the human frame is subject to
ONLY ONE DISEASE, viz: Corrupt Humors,
or in other words Impurity of the Blood, and moth
inp save vegetable cleansing, is wanted in order
to drive disease of every description from the bo-
dy.
If the channels of our mighty rivers should be-
come choked up, would not the accumulated wa
ters find new outlets, or the country be inundated!
Just so with the human body; if the natural drains
become closed the accumulated impurities will
most assuredlv find vent in some form of disease,
or death will be certain consequence.
WRIGHTS INDIAN VEGETABLEPLLLS
are eminently calculated for carrying out this
GRAND PURIFYING PRINCIPLE, because
they are purgative medicine so justly balanced
and withal so natural to the human constitution,
that they cannot possibly njure the most delicate;
At the same time if used in such a manner as to
produce free evacuat!ons by the bowels, and re-
heated a few times, it will be absolutely imposs-
ble for pain or distress of any kind to continue in
the body. A single twenty-five cent box OF the
above named Indian Vegetable Pills will. In all
cases, give relief, sometimes even beyond the
power of words to describe, and if persevered IN
for short time, there is not malady IN the
whole course of human ills that can possibly with
stand their astonishing and wonderful influence.

be seen to the greatest advantage, when his
attention. became engrossed by an object Of
exceeding interest Near was a Young man
employed in endeavoring to collect some
drift wood. He had stretched forth his arm
to seize floating log, wien, the place be-
ing slippery, he lost his balance, aud fell in
TO the water. At first, the stranger thought
him Justly punished for his temerity, and
felt inclined to smile at what he deemed his
fool-hardiness but soon other feelings pre-
dominated The river was very high, and
the current, running strong, soon brought
the rash youth towards the rapids '1f'.i

the unfortunate youth had made for aid, was
to him, and sick at heart he returned to the
hotel.
When the melancholy fact became spread

uEMLocK Browse FOR SHEEP.-Sheep,
as well as other domestic animals, like green
food in the winter, and indeed the more
they can have of heavy and succulent ma
ture, the better they will come out in the
spring. 1t is maxim with one of our old
est and most experienced wool-growers, that
sheep should be filled once per day with
something that they VW eat. They are
rather capricious in their appetites. This
capriciousness depends very much upon the
weather. When it is severely cold, they
will eat almost any thing with avidity.-
Common bog hay is then greedily sought
after But when the weather is more mod
crate and thawy, they are more dainty, and
will turn from the same kind of fodder
which they were fond of, perhaps the day
before Hemlock boughs, we believe are
never refused by them, until they become
somewhat tough in the spring of the year.
They are green, succulent, heavy, and no
doubt quite nutritive Those who can OBJ
tain the boughs of the pitch pine, will find
them as good or better than the hemlock.-
Perhaps some of the other evergreens of the
turpentine order are good, but we have new
er tried them, and cannot speak, therefore,
from any experience of our own. Those
who have small supply of hay will do well
to furnish good supply of browse, and
those who have plenty of hay should also
furnish them with good supply of browse

Alarming Statistics for adoaneed Maiden

900; at II years $3.50; at Is years 5,sl6;
at 10 years 6,957; at 30 years 76I0;at 81

5000: and "a or 25 upwards of 5000; but
at 26, 81 and %, they scarcely exceed s.

PANTALooN STRAPs.-The editor of the
Boston Medical and Surgical Journal calls
the attention of the public to the injurious
effects of wearing pantaloons tightly strap
ped He says he has known instances in
which lameness of the knees has been pro-
duced by the pressure on the knee-pan
forcing it into the knee joint, which could
be relieved only by removing the exciting
cause. The great muscles which extend
the leg on the thigh, are connected with the
knee-pan, and require freedom of motion
for the proper and easy performance of their
functions. Freedom is essential to grace,
and fashion ought to give way TO utility and
health, Besides the fashion has lasted long
enough, and having had its day, let it retire
and be numbered with the things that were.
