How MRS. WRIT RECLAIMED HER HUsBANp.-
There is an anecdote related of the early life Of
William Writ and his Wife, which is in itself
very beautiful, and exhibits in pleasing light
one of the noblest traits of true woman. In
his youth Writ was addicted to intemperance,
and passed whole days and nights in the society
of the low and degraded. His passion for drink
was constant, and the remonstrances of his
friends, as well as the promptings of q high and
generous nature, were disregarded He had
offered himself to this lady, but she was forced
to reject his suit because Of his great intempe-
rance. This refusal, no doubt served only 10
increase the intensity Of his appitite, and he
continued to sink in the scale Of humanity
without making one effort to regain his man
hood until one day becoming grossly intoxi-
Gated he had laid down by the road side and
fell asleep. The sun was burning hot and its
scorching rays fell full upon his uptuned face.
The object of Wirt's affections, happening to
pass by, observed his precarious situation in
view Of, the hot sun falling so directly upon
him, and actuated by feeling Of sympathy for
the unfortunate to which every .wonan's heart
i always so truly and keenly alive, she alight-
ed from her carriage and placed her handker-
chief over his face to protect him from the hot
sun. II may be remarked, that when she
aiighted she did not recognize him, so altered
and distorted were his features. She drove on,
and II was several hours ere Writ awoke.
When he did so, what was his establishment at
beholding the handkerchief Of lady placed
over his face, aud diyining its object picked IL
up and observed neatly worked in one corner
the initials Of his hearts idol Remorse and
contrition seized him He reformed, and be-
came once more ap honored member Of society.
Afterwards they were married, and enjoyed
long years of peace and happiness, in the affec-
ton and society Of Zach other.-ABany States

is this not positive evidence that proper remedies,
carefully prepared and judiciously administered
through the lungs should produce the happiest re-
sultsf During eighteen years practice many thou
sands suffering from diseases OF the lungs and throat
have been under my care, and have effected many
remarkable cures even after the sufferers had been
pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies
that consumption is no longer fatal disease MY
treatment Of consumption is original, and founded
on long experience and a thorough investigation,
My perfect acquaintance with the nature OF tubercles,
&C., enables to distinguish, readily, the various
forms of disease that simulate consumption and apr
plying proper remedies, rarely being mistaken even
in single case This familiarity, in connection with
certain pathological and microscopic discoveries, en-
ables me to relieve the lungs from the effects Of con-
tracted chests to enlarge the chest purify the blood
mpar to it renewed vitality giving energy and tone
TO the entire system.
Medicines With full directions sent TO any part Of
the United States and Canadas by patients commu
nicating their symptoms by letter But the cure
would be more certain if the patient should pay me
a visit which would give an opportunity to examine
the lungs, and enable me TO prescribe with much
greater certainty and then the cure could be effected
without my seeing the patient again. All letters
asking advice must contain a postage stamp.
