Boston paper, no doubt vcrsed ir the rules

lowing memoranda as a guide to young
ladies' in their conduct: "Have ood piano

PAIN KILLER

From tho hest and purest materials, and with
care that insures the most perfect uniformity in
the medicine.
The reputation Of the Pain Killer has suffer
ed more or less from numerous counterfeta and
limitations, that have been issued from time to
time, many of them well calculated to deceive /;
promising to cure diseases for which the Pain
Killer is intended while they contain few if
any properties in common with it, apa me- g..,e
rally entirely worthless. TIL hseaue SO nu-
merous that, in 1864, to protect the public and
ourselves, we went to heavy expense in pro-
"nrins finely engraved steel plates for our la.
b Is; altering, at the same time, the shape of
our bottles, from ociagon to Hat panel, with
Davis Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the
glass. On one side of each hottie is II finely en-
graved likeness OF Perry Davis, the inventor of
the medicine; on the other side of each is our
note of hand, as finely engraved, to counterfeit
which is held to BIO forgery by the laws of the
United States.
