SOME YEARS since poor hut talented gentle
man of the medical profession conceived the idea
that if ne could produce a medicine of universal
application and extraordinary merit, and make
it known, he could not only enrich himself and
escs le the drudgery of ply soian's life, but
also benefit the sick in greater measure than by
his private practice. de therefore consulted
with the best physicians he could find. and the
result was the production of the Judson's Noun
tain Herb Pills, famous and most successful
medicine He began in a small way to make the
Mountain Herb Pllls known by advertising them,
and such WIGS the value of his Pills, that in a few
years he had not only smassed a fortune, but had
that rare satisfaction for . rich man, of having
relieved the sick, and benefited his fellow men
in every part of the country, as thousands OF
grateful tie stim onials could provo me 'ndson
Mountsin Herb Pills have cured dyspepsia,
Liver Complaint, Female Irregularities, and all
Bilious Disorders. This little sketch serves both
to adorn tale and point a moral. DR.. Judson's
Pills were Ineritorious and the hoctsr himself
knew the value of printers ink For sale by oil

One of the few really successful enterprises of
the day is Parker & Co.'S One Dollar sale. Their
system offers greater opportunity for the pur-
chase of the thousand and one useful articles,
at a price that comes within the reach of a /
classes, than any other.
1t i. a well understood fact, that certain elias
ses of goods pay the dealer = very large percent
age of profit This appears almost necessary,
especially in Fancy Goods, Jewelry, Silver Plated
Ware, &c. of which dealer does not sell sufi-
cisnt of any one article to make it an object of
trade, and is obliged TO purchase in small guam
titles and when the goods are sold by three or
four different classes of merchants, and each
charge a very large profit, the price becomes
double the original cost of manufacture before
reaching the hands OF the people.
1t is in such goods Parker Co., IS and 100
Summer ST., Boston, deal most extensively.
Their sales are so immense they make each arti-
Gle speciality, often buying all manufacturer
can produce. Their system gives universal salts
