The Vegetable Pile Electuary,

Invented by DIR. A. Upham, u distinguished
physician of New York city Is the only really
successful remedy for that dangerous and dis
tressing complaint, the Piles, ever offered TO the
American public.
Mark this: il is an INTERNAL REMEDY
not an external application, and will cure any
case of Piles either Bleeding or Blind, lnierna
or External; and probably the only thing tina
will. There is no mistake about IT, II is pos
Iilive cure-speedy and permanent. 1t is also 4
convenient medicine to take, and improves the
general health in a remarkable manner.
Each Box contains twelve doses, al 3 l'3 Cts
per dose. It's very mild 10 its operation. anC
! NAV be taken in cases of the most acute milan
nation without danger All external applica
tions are IN The highest degree dlsagrecabIe, IN
convenient and offensive; and from the very
nature OF the disease, temporary in their effects
This Medicine attacks the disease at MS source
and remoping The cause, renders the cure GER
TAIN and PERMANENT.
LNFLlMyM4TORY DISEASES.
Although the ELECTUARY was originally
prepared for the cure of Piles, yet it has proved
itself To be a medicine far superior to all others
in all diseases of an Inlammaiory character, with
a determination of blood to any particular part
or organ. In Inflammation and Congestion oI
the Liver and Spleen; Inflammation, Soreness
and liberation of the Stomach, Bowels, Kid
news, and Bladder in lnilImmatory and Mer.
curial Rheumatism il is the BEST Medicine ever
discovered.
IMPURITIES or THE MOOD.
For all Impurities of the Blood, arising from
theimprudcnl use of Mercury, or other causes
for all Diseases OF the Skin and Scroiulous Ar
fections IN all cases where the blood is power
fully determined TO the Head, producing dizzi-
ness and distress, DR.. UPHAM's ELEC-
TUARl is entncly unrvaed.

to that painful and injurious disease, the PILES,
with consequent Inflammation of the stomach
Bowels aud Spine. weakness of the Back, flow
of Blood to the Head &c. The Electuary is

| This extract of Sarsaparilla has been express
ly prepared in reference to female complaints.
No female who has reason 10 suppose she Is ap-
proachlng that. critical period, The turn of
lIle," should neglect to take it, aS it is Gel
tain preventative for any OF the numerous and
horrible diseases To which females are subject
at this time Of life. This period may be de-
Iayed for several years by using this medicine.
Nor l., it less valuable 10 those who are ap-
preaching womanhood, as it is calculated to
assist nature by quickenlng the blood and in
Ivlgoratlng the system Indeed this medicine
is invaluable for all of the delicate di,oosea tn
which women are subject.
IL braces the whole system, renews perma
nently tie natural energes-by removing the
impurities Of the body, not so iar stimulating
the system as to produce subsequent relaxa-
ton, which is the case OF most medicines taken
for female weakness and disease.
Great Female Medicine.
DIR. Townsend SarSaparllla Is sovereign
and speedy cure for incipient Consumption,
i1arrennesS, Leucorrhpa, or Whites, obslrucl-
ed or difficult Menstruarion, lnconlinance of
Urine, or involuntary discharge thereof, and
for the general proSlration OF the sySlem-no
matter whether the result Of inherent cause or
causes, produced by Irregularily, illness or ac-
cident.
Nothing can be more surprising than Its in
Ivigorating effects on the human frame. Per-
sons subject 10 weakness and asSltude, from
taking ii, at once become robust and full of en-
crgy under lis influence. Ii Immediately cour-
netactS the nerveleSSneSS Of the female frame,
which is the great cause of barrenneSs.
twill not be expected OF us, in cases of so
delicate nature, to exhibit certificates of cures
performed, but we can assure the afflicted that
hundreds Of cases have beeu reported to u.s.
Several cases where families have been with.
out children, after using few bottles of this
invaluable medicine, have been blest with a
healthy offspring.
DR.. Townsend: My wife being greatly dis.
tresSed by weakness and general debility, and
suffering continually by pain and sensation
of bearing down. falling Of the womb, and with
other difficulties and having known cases
where your medicine has affected great cures ;
and also hearing it recommended for such
cases as have described, | obtained a bottle OF
your Extract o. Sarsaparilla, and followed the
directions you gave me. In a short period it
removed her complaints and restored her
health. Being grateful for the benefits she re-
ceived, take pleasure in thus acknowledging
ii, and recommending it to the public.

THE MIS- L r.

An old man sal by 6reless hearth
Though the night was dark and chll,
Aud mournluI over the frozen earth
The wind sobbed lone and shrih,
III, locks were white, his eyes were grey
And dim. but moi with tears
And his Skeleton form had wasted away
With penuIy more than years.
A rushicht was casting its iIiu glare
Ger The damp and dingy walls,
Where The lizard has made his Shiny lair,
And The yenomouS spider craws;
But The meanest thing in this loathsome room
Was that mSer all worn and bare,
Where he sat like ghost in an empty tomb,
On The broken and only chair.
lie had bolted The window and barred the door,
And every nook he had scanned
And felt their fastenings DER and DER
With his cold and skinny hand
And yet he sat gazing intenlly around,
And lrembed with silent fear
And startled and Shuddered at every sound
That fell on his coward ear.
IIa ha laughed the miser-lm safe at last
From this night so cold aud drear,
From the drenchng rain and the driving blast
with my gold and my treasures here:
am cold and wei with the icy rain,
And my health is bad, Ills true,
Yet if | should light that fire again
II would cost me Il cent or two.
But I'll take sip Of this precious wine,
1t will Danish my cold and fears.
Il was given long since by a friend of mine,
| have kept it for many years;
So he drew mask from n moudy nook
And drank lis ruby tide
And his eyes grew bright with each draught he
took,
And his bosom swcIIed with pride.
..st me sce-le me SEQ, said the miSer then, 4,
- ''ris some sixty years or more
Since The happy hour when began
70 heap mp the slitering store;
And wei have sped in my anxious toll,
A. my crowded chests will show
I've more than would ransom Kingdoms spoil
Or an emperor could beslow.
From the orient realms | have rubics bright
And gold from the famed Peru;
Prc diamonds 'woud shame the stars fnighr,
Aud pearls like the morning dew
And more III have, ere the morrow'S sun
His rays from the west shall fling :.
That widow. TO free her prisoncd son,
Shall bring me hcr bridal ring
lie turned TO an old worm-eaten chest
And cautiously raised the lid,
And then it Shone like the clouds of the West,
With the Sun in their splendor hid
And gem after gem Of lis precious store
Are raised with exultng smile,
And he counted aud counted them DER and DER.
In many a glittcring pile.
Why comes the flush to his pallid brow,
While his eyes like diamonds shine
Why writheS he thus in such torture now
Whal was there in the wine :
Ills lonely seat he slrove to regain
To crawl to his nest he tried
But finding his efforts were all in vain,
lie cln>pcd his gold and-dicd.
