CAUTION TO TIE PUBLIC.

Every intelligent and thinking person must know
their efficacy established by well tested experience In
the hands of a regularly educated physician whose
preparatory studies fits him for all the duties he must
lun; yet the country is flooded with poor nostrns
anu eure-alls purporLng to be the best in the world
ae not only useless, but always injurious. The
~ suhste should be PARTICULAR in selecting his
phhYyseian as it is a lamentable yet mcontrovert-
aDie lct, that many syphtic patients are maze
s aoe Win ruined constitutions By malheatment
le ~ Is point generally conceded by the rest syphi
oeraphers, tlat The study and management OF these
complaints should engross the whole time OF tlluse
who would be competent and successful In their trea
ment and cure. The inexperienced general practit-
ioner, having neither Opportunity nor time 20 make
himself acquainted with their pathology, comn,uy
pursucs one system Of treatment In most cases maxi
ing an indscrimnate use of that antiq uated and d-
gerOus weapon, the Mercury.

a Hint to Mothers,

Influence is a slower acting force than au-
thority but, though seeming weaker, in the
long run it often effects more. 1t always does
better than mere force and authority without
its gentle, modifying power. If a mother is
high-principled, religious, affectionate, if she
never uses craft or deception, if she governs
her temper, and sets good example, let her
hold on in good hope, though she cannot pro-
duce the discipline of man-ofwar in her
noisy little flock, or make all move as smooth
ly as some other woman to whom has been
given another and different talent. &

uses, but The growth of q state depends
less en- them than on the character Of the
men who manage its industrial enterprises.
What is most needed in the South to day Is
that the young blood which fought for it SO
CALAMITY should work it as determinedly
On the plantation, in the shop, in the fac.
tory, there the South is to effect itstrueres
toration. The young men who dug renches
and fed dh hominy and pork, who went

troubled her, and she became 30 much
alarmed that she was sure she would die.
A friend suggested that she should call IN
DR.. Jones, a voting man just commencing
practice. She did not at FIRST like the idea
but finally consented, and DR.. Jones was
called. lie was q person Of good address
and polite MANNERS. He looked carefully
at her throat, and asked several questions
as to the sensation at The seat Of the
malady, and finally announced that be
could relieve her in shott time. On his
second visit he brought with him delicate
pair of forceps. in the teeth Of which be
