DISEASES OF THE SKIN yCURE1l
From Mrs. Sisome formerly Mrs, James
lofPhiladelphia.
Bristol, Pa, Jan 10, ls47, =,
Messrs. Editor I'll. write to inform you
and the public, that my son was under the
treatment Of our family doctor for more
than a year, for a very troublesome disease
Iof the skin, without obtaining any relief.
then applied to several other physicians,
who gave him so much medicine, and diet
ed him 50 low, that I thought he would die
from its effects: One physician told me
that it was a disease to which some families
were subject, and could not be cured
Some called it scrofuia, and others letter,
Salt Rheum. Eczema, Leprosy, &c. After
trying every means for nearley five years
without effect, I was advised to give him
tDr. Jayn's Alternative. At this time he was
literally sore from his head to his feet, some
times it would dry up and scurf of, and
then break out again as bad as ever, and
itch and burn so intolerably as to drive him
almost to distraction. He had not taken
the Alternative, however, two weeks before
there was a change for the better. He
went to school all the time while taking the
medicine, and partook Of the same kink Of
food as the rest of the family and run about
through thick and thin, the same as the
other boys of the school, until he was per-
Ifectly cured, and became fat and hearth,
and though now over Ave weary ago, yet
not a symptom Of the disease has ever made
its appearance. He took altogether TWEEN
ty-six bottles of the Alternative, and no 9TH
er medicine while using it. Yours respect
fully. MARY ANN SIsoME.

Duty Of a Citizen to his Government

DR.. L.elber, in his celebrated work
on ethics, thus lays down the duty OF
the citizen to his government. 1t was
not written for any special period or
crisis, or for any particular people, bu,
it applies now with the most signal
force to the American citizen:
"Remember that it is your State.
your Nation, that declares and fights
out the war, not this or that minister;
remember that the honor and history
Of your country are engaged; that how.
ever conscientious you be in your op.
position, you may err after all; that
you cannot oppose the administration
without strengthening the enemy who
has unsheathed his sword against your
kindred. A TRAITOR is he who will
not gladly defend his own county,
If an opposition feels really and con,
scientiously convinced that the war is
i%nexpedient, let them follow the old
Roman rule; "Hreat after victory, but
fight until Men.'"
The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1848-02-05
Household Education.

A chiId's heart responds to the tones
Of its mothers voice like a harp to the
wind, and its only hope for peace and
courage is in hearing nothing but gen.
tleuess from her, and experiencing no.
thing but unremitling love, whatever
may be its troubles else where. Sup
posing this to be all right, the mother
will feel herself, from the first, the de-
pository of its confdence--a conf
dence as sacred as any other, though
tacit, and about matters which may ap-
pear to all but itself and her, infinitely
small. Entering by sympathy into its
fears, she will necessarily charm them
away, till the child becomes open to
reason, and even afterwards, for the
most terrible fears are those which
have to do with reason. She will
bring it acquainted with every object
in the room or house, letting it handle
in merry play everything which could
look mysterious to its fearful eyes, and
render it familiar with every household
sound. Some of the worst tears in in.
fancy are from lights and shadows
