MISCELLANEOUS.

FEMALES, owing to the peculiar and important
relations which they sustain their peculiar organiza-
ton, and the Offices they perform, are subject to
many snffsrings. Freedom from these contribute in
no small degree to their happiness and welfare, for
none can be happy who are ILL., Not only so, but no
one OF these various female complaints cln long be
suffered to run on without involving the general
health of the individual and are long producing per-
manent sickness and premature decline. Nor Is ii
pleasant to consult physician for he relief OF these
various delicate affections, and only upon the most
urgent necessity will true woman SO far sacrifice
her greatest charm to do this. The sex will then
thank us for placing in their hands simple specifics
which will be found eeacious in relieving and cur
Ing almost every one OF those troublesome plants
peculiar to the sex.
