70 the Weak and Debilitated.

The first effect of the Pills is to remove the
cause of your prostration. They carry off from
the stomach and bowels whatever is scrid, irri-
tating and obstructive, and as soon as this pres
sure is removed, the VIII ole internal organization
be gins TO its elasticity. The bile and all
the humors of the body purified, the circul.-
tion regulated, preparation promoted, and ma
ture enabled to struggle successfully with disease,
Harmonious and heathful organic action being
restored, every vestige of weakness soon disap-

a for this disease.
Their consultations for years have averaged
from We seven thousand a year, which gives
them experience unsurpassed by any, and
equaled only by few.
We wish it DIgrIsCTLy understood that DR.
KNAPP is NOT q Travelling Physician. He ON
visits few places OCCASIONALLY, To accom-
MEDIATE his numerous patients who cannot CON-
vgNIEsTLY visit him in Chicago.
ES~ Remember they do not promise to cure all
stages of disease. While all the diseases
able if taken in season, all stages not. Your
case may be durable this week, not next-to- day,
not to morrow; hence the danger of delay.

TO the Bilious.

Among the anti bilious medicines the Pills
stand alone. They contain a vegetable equivs
lent Of mercury, with all the medicinal virtues
of that dangerous mineral, and withou, any OF
its deeterious properties. In all disorders Of
the liver, whet her indicated by an overflow of
bile or a lack of it, they restore the natural
eretive action. Nothing in the materia medics
will compare with the Pills a remedy for bill

SwellingS,

The reputation acquired by the Ointment az a
means of utilizing stiff joints, by re-endowing
them with fexihility and activity, is as wide as
the range of civilization. Persons who have not
touched the ground with one, perhaps either
leg for years, become able to step out firmly
without any other help than Il cane, and in some
instances without requiring even that assistance.
Dropsical swelings reduced aud the deposi-
ton of water in the cellular tissue arrested by the
tonic action of the Ointment. In all these case.
ii is essential that the preparation DO faithful,
and vigorously rubbed IN.

Gov. Alcorn.

The press of Mississippi express much
satisfaction at the refusal Of Governor Al
corn 20 accept the office OF Provisional
Governor" Of Mississippi, rendered him by
General hnes. They augur a fair, upright
and independent administration from an
uuwillinyness to owe favors to the bayonet
ruler of the State. Another thing has
given confidence in the newly elected Gov
ernor His party desired to make him q
United States Senator, and it was thought,
at one time, he would consent to accept the
honor. But recently he has had made to
him so many and such urgent appeals from
the people not to vacate the office of Gov
ernor, that he finally gave promise that he
will not resign it to accept seat in the
Senate, and that he will not be candidate
for the latter place. These appeals came
chiefly from his political opponents, who
feared the worst results fLom the elevation
of the Lieutenant Governor elect to the pc.
sition and powers of Governor.
