with the recent raising Of the money

RCOQSfS.
HAVE received many testim onials from
professional and medical men, as my al.
lhown, all of which are genuine. The fol.
sowing letter from highly educated and
popular physician in Georgia is certainly
one OF the most sensible communications
have ever received. DR.. Clement knows
exactly what he speaks OF, and his testi-
mony deserves to be written IN letters Of
old. Hear what the Doctor says Of

doing a pretty large country practice, and
have daily use for some article OF the kind
l am free to confess that 1 know of no
remedy recommended by the ablest aa-
thors that is SO certain and speedy In its
effects. On the contrary, they are uncer-
tain in the extreme. Ny object in writing
to you is to find out upon what terms
can get the medicine directly from you.-
II 1 can get it upon easy terms, I shall use
q great deal oft. l am aware that the
use Of such articles is contrary to the
teachings and practice ofa great majority

ust cause or good sense in discarding q
remedy which we know to be efficient,
simply because we may be ignorant Of its
combination. For my part, shall make

able to commandment hesitating because
some one more ingenious than myself may
have learned its effects first, and secured

Live Within your Means.

Limited means and gaudy pride can not walk hand in hand through life-- one must yield to the other or discon- tent will follow. If you give ear to the silly voice of pride, and over step your income, momentary happiness may be yours, luxury may surround you, display enchant you. aud friends gather admiringly around you. but it cannot last-the truth will come = the bub- ble is too traiI, too brilliant to buffet life,s rough winds, and in moment it is gone, leaving you to the hand of misfortune, and in remorse and you sink to mourn your sad choice, On the other hand, if you patiently listen to the modest pleadings of prudence aud acnnonv. and heed their counsel all will be well. Remember, the lofty house, and spacious hall, gaudy display jeweled and tinseled robes and fashion and toliies, oftener cause more sorrow and bitter tears and frowns and turrows S than their pleasure are worth. True, the wealthy have their joys and hap. piness which many envy. Their hoard ed gold and proud titles have their fa- vortes, but they only last while they live within their means. But nobility of heart is more to be enjoyed. It teaches us economy and self sacrifice to bring our wants to meet our means. While content dwelt in Eden's bower it was paradise, but as soon as vain desires came whispering through it's leafy groves, the happy angel took its flight, and all nature felt the curse.
