How the Money Goes,

BY JOHN G. SAKE.
How goes the money !-Well,
I'm sure it isn't hard to tell;
Ii goes for rent and water rates,
For bread and butter, coal and CRATES,
Hats, caps and carpets, hoops and hoes
And that's the way the money goes!
How goes the money May,
Don't everyb body know the way!
1t goes for bonnets, coats and capcs,
Silks, satins, mnslins, yelvetS, grapes,
ShawIs, ribbons, fnrs and furbelows-
And that's the way the money goes!
How goes the money Sure
/ wish the ways were somewhat fewer;
1t goes for wages, taxes, debts,
Ii goes for presents, goes for bets,
For paints, PoMADE and EAU-DE-RosE,
And that's the way the money goes
How goes the money Now,
I've scarce begun TO mention how;
1t goes for laces, feathers, rings,
Toys, dolls, and other baby's things,
Whips, whistles, candies, bells and bows
And that's the way the money goes!
How goes the money !-Come,
! know it didn't go for rum;
1t goes for schools and Sabbath chimes,
1t goes for charity sometimes,
For missions, and such things as those
And that's the way the money goes!
How goes the money There,
I'm out of patience. | declare;
1t goes for plays, and diamond pins,
For public aims and private sins,
For hollow shams, and silly shows
And that's the way tbs money goes!

Ague Cure.

Ague cure,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE or
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Aguet
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious FeVers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases Origi3
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria of miasmatic countries:
No one remedy is louder called for BY the
necessities of the American people than sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect
certainty that it will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use In any quaU-
tity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. PrsUention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This "CuRR" expels
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AaUR
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first ap:
proach of its premonitory symptoms. It is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AouE prevails every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection:
1t is hoped this price will place it within tho
reach of all-thc poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of Intcrnittcnts is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duccs 10 quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon tlv. constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
| Fever and Aguc is not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
! Blindness, Toothachc, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
ma Palpitation, Painful Affection of tho
| Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Collie;
! Paralysis, and Derangcment Of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
! ical. This Cure" cXpcls the poison frsm
the blood, and consequently cures them al
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling OF temporarily
| residing in the malarious districts. If taken
I occasionally OR daily while exposed to the in
fection, that will be cxcrctcd from the system,
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to rpcn into disease. Hence it is even moro
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Intel1nittents, if they avail
themselves Of the protection this remedy af+
I fords.
