GENTLEMEN-The watches manufactured by
you have been in use on this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, TO whom we furnish
watches part of our equipment. There are
now some three hundred of them carried our
line, and we consider them good and reliable
time keepers. Indeed, I have great satisfaction
have worn and do wear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road As you are aware, formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, of ac-
knowedged good reputation; but class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service as yours.
In these statements / am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over series of years. Respectfully,

An EFFEcTuAL WORN MEDIcISE.-BROWN'S
VERMIFUGE C0MFITS, Or Worm Lozenges
Much sickness, undoubtedly, with children and
adults, attributed to other causes, is occasioned
by worms. The "Vsrmifuge Comfts," al
though effectual in destroying worms, can do
no possible injury to the most delicate child.
This valuable combination has been success
fully used by physicians, and found to be safe
and in eradict ing worms, so hurtful to
children.
Children having Worms require immediate at
tenton, as neglect of the trouble often pro-
longed sickness.
Symptoms of Worms in children are often over
looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause
irritation, which can be removed only by the use
of surs remedy. The combination of ingredi-
ents used in making Browns "Vermifuge Com
fits" is such as to give the best possible effect with
safety,

Holloway's Vermifuge CONNECTION

Which have almost entirely superseded
the old nauseous Eermifuges, to the de-
light of the poor little sufferers. 1t con
tains no ealomel or other poisonous in
gradients. ~
So highly esteemed is this popular
Vermifuge by the profession, that all
intelligent physicians who know of
them, prescribe them in preference to
other remedies, as not only more pleas
ant to take, but more effective to cure.
Parents and guardians, having the
care of children, should keep them as a
family medicine; for they not only erad-
icate Worms-those pests of childhood
-. but correct any derangement of the
digestive organs, so prevalent with chill

DIR. Holloway, some fifteen years ago,
witnessing the distress occasioned sickly
children in taking the nauseous yermi-
fuges of that day, resolved to annalyze
them, and from the most effective of
these remedies succeeded in separating
their active medical properties, pure,
tasteless and inodorous. Then, by
combining these with sugar, and mold
