MOTTO e

The beautiful Piano Fortes of GRovEsrREN
& Co.. are deemed by all good judges to be the
Ultima Thule of instruments of the kind.
We cannot suggest what is wanting to make
musical instrument more perfect, although
we are slow to admit that the limit of i'm
provement can ever be attained.
Before they had brought their Pianos to
their present excellence, they had submitted
them to competition with instruments of the
best makers of this country and Europe, and
received the reward of merit, over all others.
at the celebrated Worlds Fair. 1t is but ius-
tice to say that the judgment thus pronounced
has not been overruled by the musical world.
STILL by the Improvements lately applied
by them to their Pianos, it is admitted that a
more perfect instrument has been made
They have accordingly achieved the paradox
of making excellence more excellent. Sure
ly, a:.er this, they are entitled to the motto,
'''Excelsior," may29.

@.A Young LADY returning to her
country home after sojourn of a few months
in the city, was hardly recognized by her
friends. In place of 8 coarse, rustic, flushed
face, she had soft ruby complexion OF al
most marble smoothness, and instead OF
twenty she appeared but eighteen
Upon inquiry as to the cause, she plainly
told them that she used the CfrCasstan
Balm, and considered it an invaluable ac-
QUESTION to any Lady's 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 unsurpassed in its efficacy IN
drawing impurities from, also healing, cleans
ing and beautifying the skin and complexion
By its direct action on the cutiele 1t draws
from 1t all its impurities, kindly healing the
same, and leaving the surface as Nature In,
tended it should be, clear. soft, smooth and
beautiful. Price 81, sent by Mail or Express
