A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DIR. Maggiel is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach and paraly1e the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
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. MaggIel's 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 Maggiel's Pills rectifes
the dIsordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cieanses the head and restores the nerves in a
space Of time snort enough to be almost classed

seems Miss Alderman is about twenty II We
years OF age, and had been receiving the atten-
lions Of a young man TO whom her father and

their opposition TO the match, and so deep the
Young lady's attachment. that she finally deem.

a neighbor. Her clothes she could only pro
cure by the intervention, after a considerable
time, Of the sheriff. II was then. as well as a.
