A STRIKING SMILE.
THE HEALING wATERT.

Our readers will doubtless remember the
magic properties assigned to the River
Lethe in the Mythology of ancient Greece
In those dark ages superstition held pre-
dominant sway, and usurped the minds Of
men. Immersion in its waters was bellev-
ed to cause forgetfulness of past and pres
eut woes-the afflicted mind and diseased
body could alike throw off the trammels
that bound them, and being thus no longer
the slaves of mental or bodily entertainments
finish the rest of their days with indlfer-
encs to the past, and unalloyed anticipa-
ton for the future.
But start not attentive reader when
we tell you with less fable, but far sterner
fact, that ICE have Lethe near our homes
and hearths, whose waters not occasionally
but at all times flow in one continuous
stream of healing benefcence
Whether the afllictiJn emanate from the
deep. seated core Of long neglected disease,
or from the ravages Of malignant epidemic,
or again from long protracted habits Of
dissipation and vice, there is at hand, within
the easy grasp of the poor sufferer, be he
high or lows remedy for his woes to which
be can look for succor.
We allude in the above remarks, to the
vastly spread and mighty influence of the
remedies which bear the name Of the world
famed and renownod p'.fo'sor Holloway:
Countless thousands of every tongue and
cline, daily hymn his praises, as having
lifted them from bed of suffering and sor-
row to new life and terminated vigor.
BE the malady hidden in the inmost vi
tails Of the human frame, or evlnced BY su.
perfcial sores, by sure, but gentle means,
be eradicates the secret evil, and disperses
the winds the chronic renom that has for
wears deGed the Physicians skill
These are not idle words We utter, nor
the visionary imaginings of fevered brain,
but the stern realities Of long-tried prac'
tice and unfail,ng issues.
The .uffrages of universal acclamation
stamp Hoilowoy as the man, and his med
icines as the means that administer to the
healing of the natsons from the "Orient'
to the Occidental" sun!
The printer heralds it from pole to pole,
and leaves to all and each but "tr'aFs
