.'G.oD GRAcIoUs" was the exclamatio

Sc Cd GRAcIoUsr' was the exclamation
made by friend of ours the other day, while
standing in front of the United States saloon.
Turning to inquire what occasioned his as
tonishment, we observed that his ewes were
intently fixed on some object up Main street.
He was study for painter. Standing as
lmmovable as statue, seemingly rooted to

tracted his attention, as that with which the
fascinated victim of the serpent regards his

countenance. Seizing him frantically by the
arm, we boisterously inquired what was the

ESSENCE OF JAMAICA GINGER |!
This valuable preparation containing in a
highly concentrated form all the properties
of the Jamaica Ginger. has become one of the
most popular domestic remedies for all dis
eases of the stomach and digestive organs.
AS tonic it will be found invaluable to
all persons recovering fro'r debility whether
produced by fever or otherwise, for whilst
it imparts to the system all the glow and
vigor that can be produced by wine or bran
dy, it is entirely free from the reactionary ef
fects that follow the use of spirits of any kind.
1t is also an excellent remedy for females
who suffer from difficult menstruation. giving
almost immediate relief to the spasms that so
frequently accompany that period.
1t gives immediate relief to Nausea, caused
by riding in a railroad car. or Dy sea-sickness
or other causes. 90
! 1t is also valuable as an external applica-
tion for Gout. Rheumatism. Neuralgia, etc.
