HOBENSACR.S LIVER PILLS

No part Of the system is more liable 10
disease than the LIVER, it serving as n
tilterer to purify the blood or giving the
proper secretion to the bile 80 that any
wrong action of the Liver affects the other
important parts OF the system, and results
variously in Liver Complaint, Jaundice, Dys-
pepsia, &c. We-should therefore watch
every symptom that might indicate wrong
action of the liver. These Pills being com.
posed of Roots and Plants furnished by na-
turc to heal the sick, viz: lst. An EXPEC-
TORANT. which argments the secretion
from the pulmonary mucus membrane, or
promotes the discharge of secreted matter.
ID An ALTERNATIVE. (which changes in
some inexplicablc and inscnsiLle manner the
certain morbid action of the system. Sd A
TONIC, which gives tone and strength to
the nervous system, renewing health and
vlgor to all parts of the body. 4th. A CA
THARTiC, which acts in perfect harmony
with the other ingredients, and operating on
the bowels, and expelling the whole mass of
corrupt and vitiatcd matter, and purifying
the blood which destroys disease and restores
health.

The PRNTER.-" ] pity the printer" said
Uncle Toby.

The PRISTER.-" pity the printer" said
Uncle Toby.
He'sa poor creature" reioined Trim.
How so |" said my uncle.
Because in the first place" continued thc
corporal, looking full upon uncle, "because
he must endeavor TO please everybody. In
the negligence Of n moment, perhaps small
paragraph pops upon him; he hastily throws
1t to the composition, it is inserted, and he il
ruihed to all intents and purposes"
Too much the case, Trim" said my I'M.
clcr with n deep sigh. "Too much the
case"
And please your honor" continued Trim,
" this is not the whole"
Go on, Trim," said my uncle, fcelinoly.
"Thc printer, sometimes" pursued the
corporal, hits upon piece which plcascs
hiEl nightly; and he thinks it cannot but
go down with his subscribers. But alas
sir, who can calculate the human mind! He
inserts it, and il is all over with him. They
forgive others, but they cannot forgive the
printer. He has host TO print for. and
every ohe sets up for critic. The pretty
Miss exclaims, "Why don't you give us more
poetry, marriages, and bon nois away with
these stale pieces" The politician clans
his specs over his nose, and reads it over in
search Of violent invective; he finds none,
takes them of, folds them up, sticks them in
his pocket, and declares the paper is good
for nothing but TO burn. So il goes. Every
one thinks it ought to be printed expressly
for himself, as he is a subscriber; and vet.
after all this complaining, sir, would you be.
lieve IL, sir r said the corporal, beseechinV
ly," would you believe it, sir. there are some
subscribers who do not hesitate to cheat the
printer out Of his! Our army swore terribly
at Flanders, but we never did anything so
bad "a that !"
"Ncver!' said my uncle Toby, with the
strongest kind Of emphasis.

LEoNARD'S FLAvORING EX.
TRACTS, namely, Lemon, Vanilla, Rose,
Peach, Orange, for Cakes, Puddings,
Pies, Custards, Creams, Ices, Sc, are
very choice, and exceedingly convenient.
Housekeepers should never be without
them. Those who delight in the de-
Gcious flavor and exquisite perfume of
Fruits and Flowers, will find in these
flavoring Extracts all that they can
desire.
LEONARDS LEMON SYRUP, being
made from FRUIT instead of from Acids,
as are all the ordinary kinds, is not only
tar more pleasant, but also more health
ful and wholesome, and makes the most
agreeable Of summer drinks.
LEONARD'S MUSTARD.-Those de-
sirous of using Mustard that is not half
rice Hour, and wish it perfectly PURE,
should try Leouards Pure Mustard, and
they will enjoy an article very different
from what is usually called Mustard.

INDUSTRY EssENTIAL.-Ifyo you are not pos
sessed Of brilliant talents, you can at least
be industrious; and this, with steady pcrse-
verance, will compensate for many intelcc-
tuai gifts. The history of almosts every
rcaiiy eminent man, no matter in what pur-
SUIT nc has signalizcd himself and served
mankind, aboun Is with proofs that to indus
Try, iuily as much rs to genius, have all real
~ great human achievements been attribu-
table. Great scholars, for instance, have
always been not merely lnborious, but they
have also studied both mcthodically and
regularly; they have had for every portion
OF the day lis proper and allotted study, and
IN no"lse would they allow any one portion
OF time to be encroached upon by the study
10 whleh another portion was especially APP
propriatcd in their fixed plan of action.

The Trysting.
BY N. b. C. sLApr.

WE were young sisters,--we We're four,
That passed from out the cottage door,
And danced with linked hands, merrly,
Down to the maple trysting-tree.
The rough, brown bark We smootcd away,
And wrote, Here, on the next May.day,
Well come the morning star to see,
Beneath the maple trysting-trcc'
First !Alicc--she was eldcst--came
Then Mary fccbly wrote her name,
And, smiling, gave the style TO me,
To write upon the trysting-trec.
Then Lillian, so tall and fair,
Threw back her curls Of golden hair,
And high above the other three,
She wrote upon the trysting-trcc
"The youngest ain l." then she said
But highest is my little head;
My name stands first, and you shall see,
first will seek the trysting tree"
a year passed by,-Oh, year of pain!
When, slowly, hand in hand again,
Mary. and Alice went with me,
On MNy-day,to to the trysting-tree.
The stars were shining, calm and still,
The maple shade was on the hill;
And not a bird awake to see
Our weeping meath the trysting-trce.
But low, and still, and sweet, we heard
The sleeping leaves all gently stirred -
We bowed our heads, we knew that she
Was 'caiting at the trysting.trce!
Then came the breeze, so soft and bland,
And kissed each check and touched eac
hand;
And Lilan's spirit, heavenly free,
Was with us at the trysting-trcc!

HOBENSACKS WORM SYRUP
An article founded upon scientific princi.
pies, compounded with purely vegetable sub
stances, being perfectly safe when taken, and
can be given to the most tender infant with
decided beneficial effect Where Bowel
Complaints and Diarrh9a have made them
weak and debilitated, the tonic properties of
my Worm Syrup are such, that it stands
wothout an equal in the catalogue of medi-
cines in giving tone and strength to the stom.
ach, which makes it an infallblc remedy for
those afflicted with Dyspepsia. The aston.
ishing cures performed by this syrup, after
physicians have failed, is the best evidence
of its superior efficacy over all others.
THE TAPE WORM
This is the most difficult worm to DESTROY
ofali that infest the human system, 1t grows
to an almost indefinite length, becoming SO
coiled and fastened in the intcstines and
stomach, affecting the health so sadly, as ia
canse St Vitus' Dance, Fits, &c, that those
afflicted seldom If ever suspect that it is Tape
Worm liasteRing them 10 an early grave. In
order to destroy this worm very energetic
trcatmentmu be pursued. 1t would, there.
fore, be proper to take 6 to of my Liver
Pills, so as to remove all distractions, that
the Worm Syrup may act direct upon the
worm, which must be taken in doses of y
tablcspeonfuls 3 times day. These dircc.
tions followed have never been known to fail
in curing the tnost obstinate case of Tape
Worm.
