"Ross, the Express man, who
paid $3.50 for the first ticket to Jenny
Lind's concert, in Providence, must
be an odd genius. The Troy Bud
get says his oddities are well known
10 everybody within fifty miles OF
Providence. Anything he does will
be sure TO be done in a different way
from what any other person would
do ii. For instance, in his house
hold matters, he carpets the ceiling
and whitewashes the floor. The
door of his house, instead of swing
ing upon hinges, open by dropping
into the cellar. The roof OF his
dwelling is also inverted. the gutter
being in the centre, and the water
carried off at the end. In his dress
he is equally bizarre. His boots are
several inches longer than his feet,
running 10 point, and curling up
like a pigs tail; his coat is buttoned
behind; although we are not positive
on this point, believe that in Dress
ing he puts his pantaloons on over
his head. He drives a smart little
pony, attached to a low wheeled
buggy, Of which the larger wheels
are in front. He is eccentric in
everything that he does, and has got
the rocks.

mobcn.ncI.,. Worm syrup.

MO MEDICINE has ever obtained
lN higher or more deserved reputa
ton than HoBENsAcK'S WORM SYRUP
it is daily efecting some of the mos
astonishing ard wonderful cures tina
have ever been recorded in the annal
of Medicine.
We would that the public should
know that a remedy is at hand that car

ses where worms are the primary cause
Of their suffering. And those that are
pining away a miserable existence, un.
der the supposition that they are dys.
peptic, when Worms are actually prev.
ing upon the very Vitals of their life,
should use Hobensack's Worm Syrup
ere it is too late.
Evidence certifying to the wonderful
efficacy of Hobensack's Worm Syrup
in expelling worms, and a Mothers
grief changed to jog By its use:
This is to certify, that two or three
weeks past, two Of my children were at
tackled with worms. | used every reme-
dy knew, but without effect, they vet

an alarmingly fatal character, that and
all who saw them, felt assured that death

not soon obtained. One Of them presen-
ted fearful picture of suffering; she was
literally alive with worms, her couute-
nance had a pallid. deaih-like hue, her
breath extremely offensive, her frame
wore down to mere skeleton, and all the
symptoms attendant upon worms Of
highly aggravated state. To such fear
ful extent did the disease arrive, that she
passed worms from her nose, followed BY
copious bleeding. At this time obtained
a bottle of your Worm Syrup, and gave
il with bu. little hope. but wonderful to
say, after a few doses. great change
was perceptible, and in a few DAYS to nv
great Joy and wonder, the two children
passed large wash basin foil Of worms.
Since that time they rapidly recovered,
and are now perfectly cured.
