PERIODICAL DROPS
The Great Female Remedy for
Irregularities.

The, Great Female Remedy for
Irregularities.
T HAVE TESTED THESE DROPS
n in my own practice, over ten years,
and do not hesitate to say that nothing
has been developed by medical research
that acts so powerfully, positively, and
haTmlessly, in cases OF female irregularity,
as does this medicine. In all recent cases
it never fails, while thousands who have
been long sufferers are indebted to it for
the boon of health to-day.
Although so powerful and positive, they
are perfectly harmless, and may be used at
all times, except when specially forbidden
in the instructions. ass
To all who suffer from any irregplarity,
painful, difficult, excessive, offensive, or
DISTRACTED menstruation, Leucorrhoea, or
the train of diseases that follow, would
say, try a bottle of DIR. Lyons French
Periodical Drops. Being Guid prepara-
ton. their action is more direct and posi-
tive than any pills or powders. Explicit
directions, bearing my fac-simile, accom-
pany each bottle.
They may be obtained of nearly every
druggist in the country, or by Enclosing

RECORDERS CoURT.-The Office Of this
Court was crowded to its utmost capacity at
an early hour yesterday morning by a
mixed multitude, Africa being considerably
in the ascendency.
At length nine o'clock was announced, and
hundreds Of ears and mouths were thrown
open to catch the story Of shame, scandal
and vulgarity. And when the particulars
Of a halfdozen negro quarrels. three or four
DRINKS, an equal number Of nuisances, and
the obscene and vulgar narratives Of several
inmates Of houses Of prostitution, were at an
end-the business for the day closed, it was
seemingly with the greatest difficulty that
they tore themselves away from the hall.
The absence Of the unfortnnates, who had
been arraigned before the court, did not
seem to destroy, in their estimation, the at
fractions, as police officers had to actually
clear the hall at the conclusion Of the busi-
ness Of the court. Officials and attorneys,
whose duties call them there, find the great
est difficulty in obtaining sufficient room to
transact business. Prisoners, however alb
jet, are scrutinized and scanned from head
to foot as though they were a fresh importa-
ton Of canibals from the wilds of Central
Africa, by this multitude Of scandal lovers.
We hope that they may profit by such visi-
tations, by taking care not to fall victims to
the vices that have dissraced those whom
they delight in seeing exposed.
