Shattered Constitutions

Our constitutions are elastic. They are not
easily shattered. In fact, strictly speaking,
Death alone can shatter them, for they
represent the reserve of vitality, which enables
the enfceblcd system to react, when the pres
sure Of disease is removed from it. But it is
the fashion, when the body is weak, the circula.
ton languid, tho nerves tremulous and the
mind depressed, TO say that the constitution is
ruined, or broken down, or shattered. In cases
of the kind described, administer HOSTEL.
TIERS STOMACH BIrTERS, and it will soen
be seen how little ground there is for this stcreo
typed note of alarm. The tonic and Alternative
properties Of the specific. rapidly diffused
through tho whole organization by the simu'
liant which forms its basis, will Immediately
create favorable reaction and this terminating
process will 20 on as the medicine is continued,
until strength, health and mental activity are
completely restored. Every day cures of this
kind arc accomplished. Let the debilitated in.
valid, when told by his cOndohng friends that
his constitution is shattered" have recourse
Mt once to this stTength-recruiting preparation,
in which the finest stomachieS and alternatives
of the vegetable kingdom are represented, and
he will soon be able to meet their gloomy fore.

thN he has taken n new lease of life under its

DIED

At st. Marys, West Va, August LIST, 1853,
WILLIAM CLARENCE, son of Rev. w. Nj.
and Mary Belts, in the 10th year OF his age.
1t is a trite saying that death loves shin
ing mark" and trite as it is, in the present In
stance it is strictly true. In the village oil ST.
Marys there was no one more universally De-
loved, and perhaps none have been or Will DC
for wears to como more universally lamented.
Who among the citizens of the place did not
love WILLIE BETTs' To say that WILLIE was
good boy is but to repeat the expression OF all
who knew him, and during his painful illness
there seemed to be a general anxiety pervading
the minds of old and young that he should be
restored to health. When it was announced
that WILLIE had died general gloom seemed
to cast itself over the entire community. lie
was truly "a shining mark" ut which the icy
monster fatally hurled his dart. Industrious
beyond what we generally see one so young, he
preferred to share in labor rather than to in.
dulse in play. His mind was active and intel.
ligent beyond his years. He seemed TO possess
powers of discrimination and Judgment equal
TO many of more mature years, and that excited
at once the attention and admiration OF all VINO
knew him. lie was upright and trustworthy,
and often was referred to by his playmates as
the arbiter of their childish disputes, and from
WILLIEs decision there was no appeal; lie
was n faithful attendant upon the Sabbath
School and loved his teacher-his fellow-schol.
ars-and often has the writer been led to remark
his intelligence in comprehendinS his lesson
given by his teacher.
His illness was extremely painful, yet he bore
it all with true spirit of resignation. Uncom'
plainingly he suffered sn unit! death closed the
scene. His funeral was attended by large
concourse of people and Sabbath School scholars,
and discourse was delivered by Rev. Ii. \. j.
Francis from Isaiah 1913
'Unveil thy bosom faithful tomb,
Take this new treasure to thy trust
And give the sacred relics room
To slumbcr in the silent dust"
