its invigoratng effects on the human frame.
Persons all weakness and lasstude, from TAX
ing it, at once become robust and full of on
ergy under its influence. 1t Immediately
countera cts the neryelessness of the female
| frame, which is the great cause Of baroness.
1t will not he expected of us, in cases of SO
delicate q nature, to exhibit certificates of

Great Blessing to Mothers and Children.
1t is the safest and most ef1ectual medicine
for purifying the system, and relieving the
suferings attendant upon childbirth ever dis

used it, think it is Indispensable. 1t is highly
useful both before and after confinement, as
it prevents diseases attendant upon childbirth.

Where this Plaster is Applied
PAIN CANNOT EXIST.

PAIN CANNOT EXIST.
A gentleman in the South of Europe and
Pales inc, in 1880, heard so much said in the
latter place in favor Of JEW DAVID'S PLAS-
TER. and of the (as he considered) miraculous
cures he had performed, that lie was induced
to try it on his own person, for Long and
Liver Affection, the removal of which had been
the chief object of his journey, but which had
resisted the genial and delicious cline.
He accordingly applied plaster on the right
Of his chest where ihe pain was seated, anslEer
between the shoulders, and one oyer the region
Of the liver. In the mean time he drank freely
Of an herb tea Of Laxative qualities. He soon
found his hea sh improving, and in few weeks
his cough left him; the sall0wness of his skin
disappeared, his pnin was rerfuved, and hiS
health became permanently reiterated.
The following Is from MIR. Wors,el, editor
Of the Massillion Gazette, Ohio.
"Genilcmcn-During last winter and spring,
