Sudden Death
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 paraly re the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one TO three
harmless pills, and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one TO three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DR.. Maggiers Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats- One of Msggiel's Pills reetihss
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in q
space of time short enough to be almost classed
marvellous.
In fact MaggiePs Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts, and all abrassons
of the skim Maggiels Salve is infallible.

An EFFEcruAL woRx MEDIcISE.-BRoWN's
VERMIFUGE CoMFITS, Or Worm Lorenges.
Much sickness, undoubtedly, with children and
adults, attributed TO other causes, is occasioned
by worms. The "Vermifuge Comfts," al
though effectual in destroying worms, can DO
possible injury to the most delicate child.
This valuable combination has been success
fully used by physicians, and found to be safe
ana sure in eradicating worms, so hurtful to
children.
Children having Worms require immediate at
tention, neglect of the trouble often causes pro-
longed sickness.
Symptoms of Worms in children often over
looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause
irritation, which can be removed only by the use
of remedy. The combination of ingredi-
ents used in making Browns "Vermifuge Com
fits" is such to give the best possible effect with
safety,

ANERICAN
WALTHAM
WAT CHES.

The true value of Machinery applied to Watch
making Is not that by its use Watches are made
rapidly, but that they are made correctly. Very
few people know why Waltham Watch should be
superior to any other In the first place. at W al
tam the Watch is regarded only a machine on
mechahical principles. If the watches are good,
il is because the machinery is good. OF course
there must be no defect in the principle plan
of the movement-nO mistake in the sizes or
shapes of the pieces of which it is composed
nothing wanting in their properties, and no error
in their positions. These points once thoroughly
settled, 1t rests wholly with the machinery, con-
structed with infinite diversity of form and func-
tion expressly for the purpose, to produce the n-
ished pieces. BY means of multiplying guages
and microscopes, tests aud inspection for the de-
lection of in the cutting tools, and for faults
aud flaws in steel OF stone are made TO accompany
the work in every stage from beginning to end.
As a necessary result, the watch goes together a
perfect machine. Every part is found to lit prop
erly in its place. Every pin may be pushed tall
il pinehes, and every screw turned home In
stead of a sluggish action, the balance even under
the pressure of the lightest handspring, vihrat.
