STARTLING FACTS.
HUNDREDS of children and adults are los
1lyearly with worms when some other cause

HUNDREDS of children and adults are los
1lyearly with worms, when some other cause
has been supposed 10 be the true one.
1t is admitted by all doctors that scarce man,
woman or child exist but what are sooner or later
troubled with worms, and in hundreds of cases,
and sad to relate, supposed fever, scarlatlna,
cold, or some other aing carries off the flowers
of the human family-while in truth they die OF
Worms! and these could have been eradIcaed in
day, by the use of bottle OF KOLMSTOCK'S
VERMIFUGE, at the cost of quarter of dol
lar!
How slckenine the thought that these thing
should be-and who can ever forgive themselve
for not trying this WORM EXTERMINA1 OR
when they knOto that even if the case was no
worms, this remedy could not by any possibility
do hurt-but always good as purgatIve-et the
disease be what it may. How important then to
use it, and who will dare take the responsibility
to do without it? Let every parent that is not a
brute, ask themselves this question in truth and
soberness.
Mr.. J. C. RINGOLD, had child very sick,
for two weeks, and attended by physician,
without relief, wher KOLMSTOCK'S VERMI-
FUGE was given, ard next day more than forty
worms were passed, when the child recovered ra,
pidly.
A CHILD of a widow woman, living near the
Manhattan Water Works, had dwndIed for
month, Till near skeleton, with great drynessof
the mouth, and itching of the nose. A humane
Lady, who cal ed TO provide for the family, sent
immediately for KOLMSTOCK'S VERMi-
FUGE, which brought away great qantites OF
worms for two or three days, and the child grew
better at once, and regained its full strength in
less than a month.

have "Dr. KoImstock's Vermifuge" handsomely
engraved on the outside LABEL and the fac smis

LETTER FROM PATRICK OWNS AUNT

DEAR NEPHEw:-I have not written
10 you since my last before now, because
as we have moved from our former place
of living, l did not know where letter
would fad you; out | now with pleasure
take my pen 10 inform you of the melan-
choIy news of the sudden death of your
only living uncle xii patrick, who died very
suddenly last week, after lingering ILL.,
ness of five months. The poor man was
in violent commissions the whole time Of
his sickness, lying perfectly quiet and
speeches., talking incohereally and call
ing for water. | had no opportunity of
informing you of his death sooner, except
had wrote by last post, which went off
two days before he died, and then you'd
had the postage to pay. I'm at loss to
tell you what his death was occasioned by,
but | fear it was brought on by his last
sickness, for he was never we'll ten DAYS
together during the whole tine of his con-
finement; but be that as it will, as soon
as he breahed his last, the doctors gave
over all hopes Of his recovery. need
not tell you any thing about his age, for
you know that in December next he would
have been twenty-five years old lacking
ten months, and had he lived till then he
would have been just six months dead
His property now devolves to his next kin,
who all died some time ago, so that ex-
pect il will be divided between u.s. and
you know his property was something
considerable, for he had fine estate which
was sold to pay his debts, aud the remain
der he lost on horse race; but it was the
opinion of every body at the time, that
he would have won the race had not the
horse he run against been TOO fast for him.
never saw man land the doctors all
said SOY that observed directions and took
medicine better than he did he said he
had as lief drink water Cruel as wine if it
had the same taste. But, poor soul he
will never eat or drink more,and now you
have not single living relation in the
world, except myself, and your two cous-
ms who were killed during the last war.
