THE DEAD.

How little do we think ofthe dead! Their
bones lie entombed in all our towns, villages,
and neighborhoods. The lands they Guilt
waited, the houses they built the works of
their hands, are always before our eyes! we
travel the same road, walk the same path, sit
at the sume freside, sleep in the same rooms,
ride in the same carriage, and dine at the
same table, yet seldom remember that those
that once occupied these places are now
gone-aas! for ever. Strange that the living
should so soon forget the dead, when the
world is full ofthe momentos ottheir lives.
Strange that the fleeing cares oflife should
so soon rush in aud fill the breast, to the ex-
-clusion of those so near. To day man stands
ana weeps over the grave of his departed
friend; to morrow he passes that grave with
cold indifference. To day his heart is wrnng
with all the bitterness ofanguish for the loss
of one he so much loved; to morrow the inn
age of that friend is effaced from his heart
and almost forgotten.
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1847-01-02

1T is now about 10 years since this medicine
IL has been introduced to the public, and il
stands unrivallcd in its effects, bearing the Sc
we're scrutiny of all classes, both friendly and
unfrendly. II is but for one purpose; for the
use of mothers who have to pass through a sea
of affliction in giving birth to mankind not to
be described. 1t is to you we make an appeal
Is is for your especial and general good that you
should make use of one bottle of the Mothers
Relief before confinement, then you APP
proach the parturient chamber without feeling
as if you were going to the chamber of death
You may rest assured it will still all febrle and
nervous affection 1t smoothes and shields from
irritation, and by its peculiar properties it de-
stroys the cause ofhemorrhagc or inflammation
that so often attend and follow the hour of par
turtion. IL causes sweet and natural rest, and
ut last facilitates the birth so taht mothers have
not to pass through such eXcruciatng pain and
distress. The Mothers Relief may be depended
upon in all cases of threatening abortion where
it is possible to be prcvented;n case of spasms,
&c, causing frequent alarm, from two to three
doses will give immediate relief.
AS the subject is one that cannot with propri-
ETY. be fully discussed in this public manner,
we invite all who feel interested to call on our
agents (most of the respectable Druggists in
the United States,) or on the manufacturer,
and they will be furnished with n complete
pamphlet in which they will find all the facts
to form n correct opinion of its merits, and al
so the opinion of many physicians ofeminence
and of persons who have become acquainted
with it's beneficial effects.

rious articles of Mothers Relief are put up by

Smith of New York; his bottles and cut with
the directions that are pasted on the bottle, is

was an agent of ours and has the genuine
pamphlet. Consequently it is well calculated
to deceive the public. Ask for Barth0lick' s
Mothers Relief None is genuine unless our
signatures are found within the wreath of the
direction that is pasted on the bottle, signed
with our own hand, and over the neck Of the
bottle is fac simiae of our hand writing also
