eases accompanying these fevers, such as Liver

at any stage of the disease, as well in the cold
stage as in the hot. These pills not only stop
the Chills and Fever, but they remove from the
system all secondary Affections which remain
after the use of other remedies to reproduce
the disease again. In this respect we claim
superiority over every other remedy which has
been offered to the public. There is paper

A Mothers Death.

We yesterday received from friend note,
one paragraph of which is as follows:
'.Iyesterday evening received the news Of the
death OF my mother-a good woman. need
not tell you that my heart is full OF sorrow"
No, you need not. For who, that has not lost
his manhood as well as his youth, could hear of
the death OF her upon whose kind bosom his
young aud helpless head was pillowed when he
was most helpless, from the fountain Of whose
heart his life was drawn-without feeling with
in him the unspoken anguish which such an an
nouncement must produce. The memories of
ones dearest and happiest days are bleeding,
and the heart is sad and lonely.
A Mother How many sweet and tender
recollections are wakened by that grateful word!
How many thoughts Of the past are associated
member thousand instances of her affection.
How tenderly, when the young heart was
grieved by the troubles of childhood, did her
voice soothe, her affectionate touch heal. her
soft kiss make it wel'' And who does not re-
member how empty seemed the home of child
hood when she was not there. How her solici-
tude followed US step by step, from the cradle to
the ocean, from her own bosom to The great bat
tie of life. Her wishes went with US, her
prayers went up to Heaven, when ear but
Gods heard her petitions for our safety and hap
piness.
And she is dead She who wore us in her
heart. and lulled our sorrows to sleep upon her
BOSOM There never come TO again
love like hers. Never again that proud, hopeful.
patient affection, that untring, loving devotion
can be ours, when existing i'll mothers
heart. And when the announcement comes that
she will smile upon us, and pray for us no more,
who is there that does not bitterly regret that
he ever. through intent or carelessness, grieved

have felt this sorrow since they left the scenes
OF childhood for their new Pacific home.
