2. If any poison is swallowed,
drink instantly half a glass Of cool
water, with teaspoonful each OF
common salt and ground mustard
stirred into it. This vomits as
soon as it reaches the stomach. For
fear some poison may remain, swal-
low the white Of one or two raw
eggs, or drink cup of strong cof-
fee. These two being better anti
dotes for the greater number Of
poisons than any dozen other ar

"drippings," or melted butter, or
lard, are good substitutes, especially
if they vomit Immediately.

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs, such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
 Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,

For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
 such as Coughs, Colds, Whoopfng
 Cough, Bronchitis. Asthma,
 and Consumption
 Probably never before in the whole history of medicine has anything won so widely and so deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long series of years and among most or the races of men it has risen higher and higher in their estma- tion as it has become better known. Its uniform character and power .C ere the various affections of the lungs and throat i.ave made It known liable protector against them. While adapted to milder forms of disease and to young children it is at the same time the most effectual remedy that be given for incpicnt consumption, and the dan- gerous affections of the throat and lungs. As pro- Vision against sudden attacks of Cr0xp, it should be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all should be provided with this antidote for them.
 Although settled GOnsunspttOst IS thought in- c,lrable Still great numbers of cases where the dis case seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the patient restored to sound health by the Cherry Pectorat. So complete is its mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that inc most obtinate of them yield to it. When noth. ing else could reach them, under tho Cherry Pec- toTaJ they subside and disappear.
 S;,agers assd Pssbljc Speakers find great pro- lection from it.
 Astsnsa is always relieved and often wholly cured by it. as- ast
 Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the Cherry Pectopai il small and frequent doses.
 So generally are it's virtues known that wo need not publish the certificates of them here do more than assure the public that its qualities arc fully maintained,

For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chili Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c., end indeed ell the affections which arise from nlalacious, marsh, or miasmatic poiscns. ,a
 As its name implies, it does Cure, and does not fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Qunne, Bismuth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance whatever, it in nowise injures any. patient: The number and importance of it's cures in the ague dis tricts, are literally beyond account and we believe without parallel in the history of Ague medicine. Our pride is grat1ed by the acknowledgements we receive of the raC;ca! cures effected in obstinate cases and where otncr remedies had wholly failed. Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or travelling through miasmatic localities, will be pro- tected by taking the AGU UE CURE daily. 5 For Lfres ConaptGiffs. arising from torpidity of the Liver it is m excellent remedy, stimulating the Liver into healthy activity.
 For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is markablc cures, where other medicines had failed. Prepared by DR. J. c. AVER Co.,, Practical and Analytical Chemists, Lowell, Mass, and sold all round the world.
