Farewell, Flowers !

WITn lingering sorrow We bid the bright
flowers Of the season adieu. Through the
spring and summer they have greeted us
wherever we went until we loved them all.
And who so stoical as not to love the sweet har-
Gingers Of the growing year? Who has not
hfe's busy cares turned to the flower of the
field and forest to sooth the wounds inflicted
by the thorns Of earth But the time is at
hand when oil must bid a lingering adieu to
the flowers. Farewell, howers-sweet flow

buds the bleak snow will soon be the wind

eg DERANGEMENTs OF THE LIVER,

Is one of the most common, as the most formi-
dable of diseases known to American physicians.
1t had for years attracted the closest attention Of
the medical faculty in all parts of the United
States, and Jet up to the time of the discovery Of
DR.. MLane's great Specific, it was almost beyond
the reach of medical skill. Thousands had perish
ed without even a hope of relief, and although
thousands may yet be destined to feel the direful
effects of this most complicated disease, it is now,
thanks to the research of DR.. M'Lane's, most COM
pletely brought within the scope of medical control.
The proprietors of the Liver Pills feel confident
that they offer a remedy which has been fully tes-
ted by time, and which has never failed of success
when fairly tried.
~ Purchasers will be careful to ask for DR..
M'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge, manufactured by
Fleming Bros. of Pittsburg, Pa. All other Vermi-
fuge, in comparison are worthless. Dr.. M'Lane's
genuine Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills,
can now be had at all respectable drug stores.
None genuine without the signature of
FLEMING BROS.
