THE WIDE REPUTATION which Dr. j. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters have attained during the
past year, bespeaks its excellence in more forci
BILE manner than any words which we can offer.
1t renovates, purifes and strengthens the system,
and aids the stomach in the performance Of its
functions. 1t is regarded all sides Is q sener-
eign specific, and therefore, to procure it in thu
best way, should be the object Of the public. We
commend it with more than usu al zeal and conf
dence, believing and knowing, as We do, that it
stands foremost among the many preparations Of
the day. for imparting strength, vigor and tone to
the system, and possessing the curative powers for
all similar diseases arising from a disordercd

In buying Sewing Machine for Family use, it is
the common practice Of purchases to deceive
themselves with the idea that in q Family they
need a Machine for tight ,ooyk only; now a good
Machine Wiu last years, and there are very many
occasions, each twelve month, when Machine
doing coarse, heavy work, is exceedingly desirable
in household-if the Machine capable of light
toork only, has been bought, and the heavy work
is put upon it, the Machine gives out, trouble fol-
lows trouble, and the Sowing Machine gets into
disreputo in TIE house and neighbcrhood. Where
is tho fault but in the fact that strong and dara-
BILE enough Machine was not bought tho price
