These chains were FIRST introduced in the
city o. New York less than one year since, and
a ter being subjected to thorough trials in ev-
cry hospital in the city, and applied by Drs.
Valentine Mott, Carnochan, Van Buren, and
others, it was discovered that they possess
strange and wonderful power in The relief and
cure OF the above class of diseases, and their
sale, and the success that has attended their
use Is unparalleled.
Previous TO their Introduction into this conn
try, they were used in every hospital in Eu-
rope, and are secured by pat antS in France,
Germany, iuStria. Prussia, 4 ! 4 England; and
also in the United States.
"THINK CLOSE AND PONDER WELL"
The principles upon which it is claimed that
the Chains produce their marvellous cures are,
first--that all nervous diseases are attended
and produced by deficient supply of nervous
fluid, and an agent that resembles closely cleo
trlcity, or electro magnetism; and second
thatthe electro magnetic chains, by being worn
over n nd upon the part and organ diseased,
furnished to the exhausted nervous fluid which
is required to produce healthy action through
the entire system. No disgusting noStrum is
allowed 10 be taken while using the chains,
but a rigid observance of the general laws of
health are required. Brisk friction upon the
part diseased adds much TO the effects of the
chains, byincreasing their magnetic power

How do you like tie magnetic plan--tha's

short weights and measures, bit fair exchange

p. S. Please take notice that every matter
and thing in the above, rs to paying and being

More than one hundred permanent cures
of Prolapsus Uteri, have been effected
within the last year BY the use Of these
chains. BY applying one end of the chain
over the region OF the abdomen, and the
other upon the spine just above the hip,

EYES AND Cold WArER.-The aquatic
Juror has become SO general, that for the
simple reason that cold water is a pure, nat.
u,ral product, it is claimed to be a universal
and beneficial application. Arsenic is a
pure, natural, and simple product; so is
prussic acid, as obtained from peach ker.
mel. A single drop Of tobacco oil will kill
Cat or dog in five minutes.
Many persons are daily running their eyes
by opening them in cold water of mornings.
Cold water will harden or roughen the hands,
and much more will it do so to the inany.fold
more delicate covering Of the eye, or, the
eve will, in self.defence, become scaly in
the manner of fish; that is, the coats of
the eve will thcken, constituting species
of cataract which must impair the sight
That water, cold and harsh as it is, should
be applied to the eye for curative purposes,
| in place of that soft, warm, llubrcating fluid
which nature manufactures for just such
purposes, indicates great thoughtless or great
mental obliquity. Nothing stronger than
luke warm water should ever be applied't to
the, eye, except by special medical advice
and under special medical supervision; fo'
we have only one pair to lose. Even warm
water should be applied only by closing the
eye and Tapping it against the lid with hane
patiently, scarcely letting the fingers touct

than cold waterdoes, and without the shock

or of Patents:
or the ornamental trees propagated
among US, either foreign or native, there is
none, in my judgment, more desirable than
the tamarind. Its growth is rapid, its form
symmetrical, its foliage beautifully delicate,
and it is altogether highly ornamental /; be:
sides, it is perfectly free from blight, as well
as from the depredations of insects. Ifcul:
tivated on our western prairies, it You'd
doubtless form a valuable acquisition
From the growth of some tamarihd seeds
which.I obtaine ] some eight years since, |
have tree standing in my yard eighteen
inches in circumference. The past season
it perfected its fruit, which in quality, was
equally as good as that imported. The
seed may be sown in drills about four inches
apart, and covered from two to three inches
deep with light rich soil. They may be
sown either in the fall or spring. lin the
latter, they should be exposed to the wealth.
er during the winter previous, in order that
their hulls or coverings may be acted upon
by the frost. When grown to a height:oi
three or four feet, the young. trees may be
transplanted in the sites where they are per.
manently to remain.
