CIPIENT CONSUMPTION,
and for the relief of conEuMptiye patients iu advanced
stages of the disease.
We need not speak to the public of its virtues.
Throughout every town, and almost every hamlet Of the
American States. its wonderful cures of pulmonary cont
plants have made it already known. Nay, few are the
out some personal experience Of its effects and fewer yet
the communities any where which have not among them
eome living trophy of its victory over the subtle and dan
gerous diseases Of the throat and lungs. While it is the
most powerful anndote yet known to man for the formi
dablc 2 - dangerous diseases Of the pulmonary organs, it
p'oyed for infants and young persons. Parents should
have it in store against the insidious enemy that steals
upon them unprepared. We have abundant grounds to
believe The Cherry Pictorial saves more lives by the con-
symptoms it prevents than those it cures. Keep it by
you, and cure your colds while they are durable, nor neg
lect them until no human skill can master the inexorable
canker that, fastened on the yitals, eats your life away.
All know the dreadful! fatality Of lung disorders, and As
they know too the virtues Of this remedy, we need not do
more than to assure them it is still made the best it can
BE-. We spare no cost, no care, no toll to produce 1t the
most perfect possible, and thus afford those who rely on
1t the best agent which our skill can furnish for their cure.

For the Register.
The Lords Day.

II is not my intention 10 attemp! an es-
saw on the Sabbath, but merely 10 suggest
To the Pastors of the churches of Shep.
herdslown 10 preach one or more SER
mons on the Proper Observance Of the
Lords day. and also frequently on other
occasions both in The pulpit and in private
intercourse with their people, to incuIcaie
this great duty.
The question will naturally AMI reason
ably be proponnded Why does the VIII
ter of this Article select this subject for the
meditation of the ministers and The in
s,ruclion of their people ! ls1, Because
OF its great and peculiar importance tor
the man who keeps the Sabbath day holy
lie fortified thereby to resist the lemPts-
tons and overcome the assaults of his
spiritual enemies during the ensuing
week and the sanctlfylng influences OF
the Sabbath spent in prayer. III studying
The great truths of the bible, in the Sun
day school. and IN listening TO the preach
ed word, will enable the christian. By
Gods help. when attending to The dulles
Of his daily calling. to be as "a city that Is
sci on hiI'' and candle "ou candle-
stick" and thus fulfilling rhe command oil
our Saviour "Lrt yoUr light 10 shine
before men. that they may see your good
works, and glorily your Father which Is
in Haven"
Who can estimate the poHer Of exam
pie ! The Judgement day will Disclose
The good results Of christians living close
TO God.
20 for a closer walk with God,
A calm and heavenly frame
A light TO shine upon the road
That leads me TO the lamb"
A man mus, habiually practice what
he processes, for in no other way can he
prove the sincerity of his profession.
Every tree is known by lis own fruit
2nd. Because this commandment Of
God is most frequently violated, to de-
plorahle extent by the majority OF probes
sors of religion, and by great many per
sons in almost every community IN varl-
Gus ways which society Tor lis own well
fare should not tolerate.
To point ous these various violations
and the proper manner in which to keep
Sabbalh's holy, is moi my office, but that
of The ministers Of Jesus whose attention
| have respectfully directed TO this sub
iect not that they are remiss bot on 'hr
contrary am convinced, are very latin
fol, and have no doubt are anxious to
know the wants Of their people and will
cheerlully respond 10 This suggestion IRON
