I'M THE CORAL CAVES
4 YOUNG LADY

Returning to her country home, after a sojourn
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 CHI
CAeSEAN BALM. and considered it an 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 it:
combination, nature herself is simple, yet un-
surpassed in its efficacy in drawing impurities
from, also healing, cleansing and beautiiymg the
skin and complexion. BY its direct action on
the cuticle it draws from it all its impurities.

ACARD FROM THE
American Watch Company
.OF
WALTHAM. MASS

This Company beg leave to inform the public
that they commenced operations in 1850, and their
factory now covers four acres of ground, and has
cost more than million dollars, and employs
over 700 operatives. They produce $4,000 Wat
ches year, and make and sell not less than one
half of all the watches sold in the United States.
The difference between their manufacture and
the European, is briefly this European watches
are made almost entirely by hand, and the result
is of necessity a lack of that uniformity which is
indispensable to correct time-keeping Both the
eye and the hand of the most skilhul operative
must vary. But it is fact that, except watches
of the higher grades, European watches the
product of the cheapest labor of Switzerland, and
the result is the worthless Ancres, Lepines and
so-called Patent Levers-which soon cost more in
attempted repairs, than their original price. Com
mon workmen, boys and women, buy the rough
separate parts of these watches from various fac
tories, polish and put them together, and take
them to the nearest watch merchant, who stamps
and engraves them with any name or brand that
may be ordered.
HOW AMERICAN WATCHES ARE MADE.
The American Waltham Watch is made by no
such uncertain process-and by no such incom-
petent workmen. All the company's operations,
IRON the reception of the materials to the
completion of the Watch, carried under
roof, and under one skillful and competent
direction Bat the great distinguishing feature
of their Watches, is the fact that their several
arts are all made by the hnest, tue most perfect
and delicate machinery ever brought to the aid
of human industry. Every enc of the more than
n hundred parts of every watch is made by ma
ehine-that infallibly reproduees every succeeding
part with the most unyarying accuracy. 1t was
only necessary to make perfect watch of one
particular style and then TO adjust the hundred
machines necessary to reproduce every part OF
that watch, and it follows that every succeeding
part must be like it.
The company respectfully submit their watches
on their merits only They claim to make
Better Article for the Money
by their improved mechanical processes than can
be made under the old-fashioned handieraft sys-
ten. They manufacture watches of every grade,
from good, low priced, and substantial article
in solid silver hunting cases. to the finest chrome
meter; and also ladies' watches in plain gold OF
the finest enameled and jeweled cases; but the in
dispensable requisite of all their watches is tna
they shall be GOOD TIMEKEEPERS. tshoulc
be remembered that, except their single loves
grade named "Home Watch Company, Boston,
ALL WATCHES made by them
ARE FULLY WARRANTED
by special certificate, and this warrantee IL GOO
at all times against the company or its agents.

ACCIDENT FROM KERosENE.-Mondaym NOR
ming, the 10th inst, about seven o'clock,
Miss Stacia Powers, who resides on Main
street, near Eighth, Davenport, was terribly
burned by the explosion of can of kero-
sene which she was holding in her hand
whilst attempting to expedite the kindling of
fire, the fame entering the can causing it
to explode, the oil was thrown upon her
clothing which took fire. Before the flames
could be extinguished by members of the
family who quickly responded to her cries
for help, the unfortunate lady was very badly
burned upon her body and limbs.
Accidents from kerosene are of frequent
occurrence, and in most cases, are the result
of sheer carelessness. Persons cannot be
too careful in using it, and by so doing, will,
in MANY instances, prevent the repetition OF
such cases as the above.
SCHOOL Pic NIc-Pic-nics, excursions,
festivals &C., seem to be the order of the
day at the present time, and all institutions,
both public and private, seem to have a day
Set apart, as it were, when they can dispense
with the busy scenes of life, and devote it
to recreation and pleasure-some in one
mode and some in another-each to their
particular taste. To-day the German Luth-
eran School, of this city, held their annual
picnic. This school numbers some two
hundred scholars, and is taught by Mr..
frederick Moeller and Mr.. Zeiger, who
seem to be adopts in their profession. The
procession made very fine appearance in
passing down Illinois street, under COM
mand of their chief marshal, Mr.. Dalop, and
led by Prot. Biehl's brass band, they pro-
ceeded to Maj. Beardsley's grove, near tho
head of Eagle street, where the balance of
the day was pleasantly spent by all concern.

Much sickness, undoubtedly, with children and

no possible injury to the most delicate child.
This valuable combination has been success

Children having Worms require immediate at
