A YOUNG LADY

Returning to her country home after a sojourn
of a few months in the city, was hardly recog-
nized by her friends. In place of a coarse rus
tic, flushed face, she had a soft ruby complexion
of almost marble smoothness, and instead of
twenty three she really appeared but eighteen
Upon inquiry TO the cause of so great change,
she plainly told them that she used the CIh-
CASS1AN BALM, and considered it inval-
liable acquisition to any ladys toilet. BY its use
any lady or gentleman can improve their personal
appearance an hundred fold. 1t is simple in its
combination, as nature herself is simple, yet IN

A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DR.. Maggiel is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ucerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from to three
harmless pills, and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DR.. Maggiels Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating ayalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples threats. One of Maggiels Pills rectifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in a
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous. -~4s--
In fact Maggiels Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts, and all abrassons
of the skin, MaggiePs Salve is infalible.

This valuable combination has been success
fully used by physicians, and found to be safe

children.
Children having Worms require immediate at

longed sickness.
Symptoms of Worms in children often over

Irritation, which can be removed only by the use
of a sure remedy. The combination of ingredi-
ents used in making Browns "Vermifuge Com

Proofs Of the Superior Quality
- Il of the sss4 ~
Watch
made at
WALEHAN6, MASS.


The American Watch Company, of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more dura-
BILE, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market. They are simpler in
structure, and therefore stronger and less likely
to be injured than the majority of foreign watch
es which are composed of from 125 to 300 pieces,
while in an oldEnglish watch there are more than
700 parts. How they run under the hardest trial
watches can have, is shown by the following let
ter:

( .GEsTLEaEN-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 on our
line, and we consider them good and reliable
time keepers. Indeed, have great satisfaction
in saying your watches give Us less trouble, and
have worn and do wear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road As you aware, we formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, of ac-
knowledged good reputation; but as a class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
rs good service as yours. f-.-+ t
In these statements [ am sustained by my pre-
decessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over a series of years. Respectfully,
EDWARD II. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent.
American Watch Co., Waltham.
We make now FIVE different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy Co., Waltham, Mass.
Waltham Watch Company, Waltham, Mass.
P. S. Bartlett, Waltham, Mass.
Wm. Ellery, Boston, Mass.
Home Watch Company, Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the Home
Watch Company, are warranted by the American
Watch Company to be of the best material on
the most approved principle, and to possess every
requisite for reliable time-keeper. Every dealer
selling these watches is provided with the Com
pany's printed card of guarantee, which should
accompany each watch sold, so that buyers may
feel sure that they purchasing the genuine ar
ticle. There are numerous counterfeits and imi-
tations of our watches sold throughout the coun-
try, and we would caution purchasers to be on
their guard against imposition.
Any grades of Waltham Watches may be pur-
chased of watch dealers throughout the country
