YELLOW Sk1N.-As the ladies are interes-

tons on the cause Of sallowness of complex
ion, from the Philadelphia Ledger;
II our western friends can in any way
teach their wives, daughters or cooks to keep
the pearlash out of their brea'--all the yell
low people-especialiy the yellow children,
who are supposed to be turned yellow by
| the fever and ague, and bilious fevers--will
soon be returned white. 1t is great mis-
| take to suppose that the yellow countenan-
ces OF the West come from bile, when it is
only the enormous quantities of pearlash
eaten in the bread that is reflected through
the skin. Bread is the staff of life, it is
said-and so it is-but it is the staff of death
| too, in this country. Bad bread kills about
as many people here as bad rum. So many
people eat poisonous rearlash for bread that
they die by inches. Dyspepsia--that great
monster disease Of our country, that derang-
es the liver, brings on cositiveness, and thus
| finally kills the human victim-is half the
time 'pearlas." Here in the East---out oI
New EnglaL aLd-we have nearly driven of
the pearash-saleratus cooks, but not alto
gether. pearlash lives here yet in bread
but in cities and towns we have nearly whip.
ped out the murderers. In the distant ives.
tern towns, hey ond the good hotels Of the
lakes and rivers--pearlash, under the name
of saleratus, is king. 1t is pearlash fol
breakfast, pearlash for dinner, and pearlasl1
for supper. 1t is not any wonder, then
the people Of the East turn yellow West
and sicken; notsof fever and ague, bilious
and congestive fever~, but Of pearlash three
times day.
