it is astonishing to see the pilessof all sorts,

These celebrated Vegetable Pills are no new.
untried remedy they have been used and tested
in the United States for thirty years, and are re-
lied upon by hundreds of thousands of families as
almost their sole medicine when sick. No care
or expense is spared in their preparation, and it
is certainiy true when assert that King can
have a medicine safer or surer than Brandreth's

They produce good effect upon disease almost
immedi lately after they are taken. BY some won

lasion Of his pledge. If they don't do it they
might = we'll abandon their Organisation a,

Itis the intention Of the managers of the

He is also pledged to Temperance and
sobrlety," and yet he is the most intemper
ate smoker in town, species of intemper-
anee far worse than the moderate use of good
liquor. He has been a very low drunkard
that being one OF the causes of his being
tur ned out of the army in disgrace-and
probably one cause of several very low and
disgraceful acts of his while in the scrvice.-
But, according to his theory, he was not re-
sponsible tor them-is was the men who let
him have the whisky. Rumor also tells OF
some very mysterious looking demDohns re-
ceived by railroad by this shining light of
Temperance and sobriety." ..ss -

emily and shamelessly had beer on tap ut the
polls for those who would vote for him-au
act SO disgraesful that no other candidate,
that we ever heard of in ali our life, dared
outrage public opinion by attempting.
But it is just such people as these who be.
come fanatics or extremists ut every thing
they touch. They have now entered on a
crusade against all dissilleries, breweres.
saloons aud beer houses. with the intention
of shutting up every one of them if they can
it. Their pledge" means just
this, if it means anything at all.
