bg~ Harvey Sick er, Esq, the able edi-
tor of the Tunkhannock pa Democrat,
publishes the following in his issue Of the
Both October, 1861:
ave deem it due to Messrs. j. G. Aver
& Co, and the public, to make known our
experience with the use of their Extract
Sarsaparilla in our family, by stating the
circumstances under which it was taken
and it's effects. When our only child, now
in his third year, was about eight months
old, a sore appeared first in small pimples
on his forehead over his nose. These RAP
idly increased, and uniting formed bath
some, virulent sore, which finally spread
over his forehead and face, not even ex
cepting his eyelids, which became so swol
len that his eyes were closed. We called
a skiIful physician, who administered the
usual prescribed remedies \ solution of
nitrate of silver was applied until the mass
of corruption which covered his entire face
turned Jet black The sore again and
again burst through tie scorched and arti
fetal skin formed by this solution. Mean
while many remedies were employed with
out any apparent benefit For fifteen days
and nights he was constantly held by his
parents to keep him from tearing open
with his hands the corrupt mass VIII ch
covered his face Everything having fail
ed, we were induced by the high recon-
mendations of AYERS SARsAPARILLA for
the cure Of scrofulous disease, to give it a
trial. In his Treatise on Scrofula Dr. Aver
directs a mild solution of Iudide of Potash
to be used as wash while taking the Sar-
saparilla, and it was faithfully applied.
Before one bottle Of Sarsaparilla had
been given the sore had lost much of its
virulence and commenced to heal Ano-
ther bottle effected an entire cure, anu the
general prediction that the child must die
was coCtradicted His eyelashes which
came out, grew again, AMI his face is left
without scar, as smooth as anybody's 1t
Is unnecessary for me to state i'll how high
esteem we hold Ayers Sarsaparilla"

The Fayettev lille ladies do want to know,
How it is, l manage things so p
To look and work.-knit and sew
And many things that are SO low,
And then come OUT and look so neat,
AS any girl that walks the street.
They say I'm very proud and haughty,
That hold my head so high and lofty
And when | chance to come to town,
walk as though spurned the ground.
They thought surely was deranged,
But since, their minds have sadly changed,
| do not wish to mention names;
Although | care not who it shames.
Then tell me, aunty, do,-pray do
i She Virginia lady too?
But instead of being what they thought,
They proved me to be what ought.
Well of this charge let me consider
I'm thankful that am not widow,
For, if | were, it very true,
There'd BE- bat little chance for you.
Now to the CARoL!SIAN, these lines are sent,
Unless some Provideltce should prevent;
