A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DR.. Maggiel is the founder of new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the uleerat-
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 one to three
harmless pills, and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DIR. MaggiePs Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples threats. One of Maggiels Pills rectifes
the dsordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous.
In fact Maggieps Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scalds, Chibains, Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin, Maggiel's Salye is ipfalhble.

Of few months in the city, was hardly recog-
nized by her friends. In place of a coarse, rus
tic, flushed face, she had 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 a change,
she plainly told them that she used the CIK-
CASSiAN BALM, and considered it an inval-
liable acquisition 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, nature herself is simple, yet un-
surpassed in its efficacy in drawing impurities
from, also healing, cleansing and identifying the

A PALLIATIoS.-The other day, among
other names handed in for publication in the
police report, was that of David McAllister,
charged with being drunk and abusing and
resisting the officers. Dave is carpenter
and a clever fellow-generally, perhaps al
ways, very civil and orderly. He says he
may have taken too much, in this case, but
he was going quietly home, when arrested.
The officers take little different view of the
case but we make this statement, in justice
to Dave, who is not a rowdy or 3 drunkard,
or disorderly person. We hope he will
never take too much, again.

AN EFFRcTUAL WORM MEDIcIsE-BROWN'S
VERMIFUGE C0MFITS, Or Worm Lozenges.
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
no 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 Graduating worms, hurtful to
children.
Children having Worms require immediate at
tention, neglect of the trouble often causes 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 to give the best possible effect with
safety,
