WI ALL-HEALING OINTMENT.

THINK OF THE FOLLOULNG E3CTS -
LIST. That fve-eighths of all we receive into the
stomach pass off through the pores of the skin, in
msensible Precipitation.
Cd. That the Skin evacuaes more matter than
the Lungs, Kidneys and Bowels put together.
Sd. That the slim discharges more matter in
twenty-four hours, than the Bowels do IN IA days.
and that by severe exercise, man will lose three,
four and even five pounds in one hour.
4th. That the Creator pierced the human cutIcle
With pores small opening to the almost incredible
number of 500 MILLION making this the GRAND
ouT-LEr of all the redundant matter of the body.
9Th. That through these pores are constantly
exudng the DID, altered and tro,no particles of the
Blood the huors of the body and the araste of the
system.
9Th. That TO stop up the pores, twenty-four hours
would cause instant death.
It'll That Sudden changes of weather and expo
sure to cold, close these pores in part and hence the
long catalogue of diseases over the land
Sth. That as the skin is the medium for evacuat-
ing all the humors Of the body, see the profound
folly and absurdity of resorting to pills. drugs and
other mixtures, to cure the great majority OF diseases
produced by checked perspiratiol:
9th That until September, 1914 there was no
medicine before the public that had power to restore
the sensibe Precipitation, by imparting vitality and
nervous energy to the skin.
10th. That McALISTER'S ALL-HEALING
OINTMENT is that medicine, and which, by pos
sessing this power, is ctiecing more good than any
FIVE or even ten remedies in this country, Price %

DIED,--In New Paris, Ohio, on Saturday eve
ming last, Mrs. NANCY REED. wife of Mr..
Jonx REED. aged about % years and 9 months.
The hand Of God had stricken her with death;
The awful fiat had been pronounced;
But re she yielded up her breath,
Her last, her dying " isi,, she had announced.
Remember, oh. remember, friends, she said,
That twas for thee the sweet R.deeiurr died
Then try, oh. try, to initiate the holy life lie led,
And in glory meet me in the skies!
Departed friend, the dark tomb has enfolded thee
In its cold and dreary embrace;
Thy form is forever shut from me,-
In thy cherries, thy last resting place!
But thy &c ntle spirit, unfettered shall rise,
And receive thy blest 5avior's command:
Come, blessed saint, who sin did despIse,
Take Il seat at thy Fathers right hand.
Thy last, thy parting words. are with me,
Pure and oly,-they shall not forgotten be;
And when from this earthly tepinient, the spirit :
flown,
In the SIX les I'll meet thee and worship before
Gods throne. l. ~
