p A BROADsIDE FOR HUMBUGS.-
incompetence and assurance generally go hand
In hand, and Of all the tribe OF pretentious
know-nothings with which society is AFFLICTED,
the unscientiGc medicine men" who attempt to
tamper with the health Of the community are
the most dangerous and the most impudent. re-
So much by way Of text. Now for a special
and particular application.
1t appears that mushroom growth OF so called
"B!tters'' Is sPringing up under different names
in various localities particularly in the Southern
and Western States, which the Tenders have the
hardihood to recommend 80 sy-gong people
upon whom they think they can impose, as sub
sttute for HoSTETTERS STOMACH BITTERS,
long recognized by every class as The purest and
best medicated stlmalant and invlgorant the
world affords.
The concoctlons referred 70 beng composed Of
worthless materials, offer larger margin for
profit than that Celebrated Tonic, and hence the
anxiety Of dollar worsh!pping dealers to foist
them upon the public N its place
But "iorewarnea Is forearmed," and oil par
ties whom these distinguished q, beings are en-
deavorlng to coax and inveigle into substituting
trash for standard remedy, are hereby inform
ed OF the selfish and sordid motives which under.
lie the representations in question. s....~
The great popularity and vast sales OF HOSTEL
TER'S BlTTERS cannot, Of course, be seriously
impaired by these :'tricis Of trade" but as the
debllitated and suffering have direct interest
In the matter, it is only an act Of common hu-
manity to put them on their guard.

80 neaTly to the Gods as in giving health 20 men,
says Cicero.
Health is the vital power aninatiDg all the en-.
joyments Of life, which are inslpid and tnsteless,
nay dead without IL. A man stRrves at the most
sumptuous feast, !s Indifferent to the most costly
and delicate wines-wresched amidst the greatest
wealth and grandeur.
With the ordinary and fashionable diseases we
daily meet with, such as dyspepsia, debility, pre-
mature decay, shattered nerves. sttd onarae genus
strength becomes decrepit lde, youth Is deprived
OF Its vgor, and beauty Of all Its charms. Music
Is dIscord, and conversation yapld and splritess;
riches utterly useless and honors and attendance
embarrassing and burdcnsome.
III health equalIzes and levels all conditions OF
!ife making no difference between the banker
and the beggar, for each tses as miserable and
wretched as the other The approximate cause ol
this distressing condition is, in majority OF
cases, attributable to breaking down Of the
digestive and secretary apparatus. Yitalize the
one and regulate the other; strengthen and su-
tain the one, and stimulate and modify the other.
This can be readily done by having recourse to q
health giving Alternative vegetable ionic, that will
restore the dilapidated system, and rouse and re-
a7aken the Dormant corporal and mental eaer-
giles, endowing the digestive apparatus with new
vlgor, and enlistlng oil the secretary organs to
rightful discharge Of their functions.
This good work it is the office Of S0L0MoEs'S
BIrTERs to perform, comfortably, satisfactorily
and perfectly.

TEMPERANCE Men ADMIT ITS UTILITY.
No attempt has ever been made or
ever will be made, to disguise the char
acter of PLANTATION BITTERs. 1t con-
tains alcohol; and no Bitters that do
not contains alcohol are worth a rush.
Water will neither preserve the virtues
of tonic vegetables nor render them
active to the system. This is chemi-
cal fact which no one competent 10 de-
liver an opinion on the subject will
deny. Water tonics turn sour on the
tomach, if they are not sour to begin
with, (Which is frequently the case, }

distinctly understood that PLANTATION

mark this it is strictly beverage. 1t

antidotes, and therefore its use is in &C.

BUSINESS SIGNs.-A notable change
has taken place in the character OF the
business signs Of our city. The I'M
graceful, and very far from being orna-
mental, black and white signs are giving
way to those Of a more tasteful charac-
ter, and we are sure that the change
will be hailed with pleasure by every
one who has an eye for beauty. We
had almost reached the conclusion that
our sign painterslwere unable to produce
any other than the old black letters,
but here and there we now have evil
dences that such is not the fact and we
are glad to know as well as record it.
A neat and snowy sign is OF more con-
sequence than many persons suppose.
1t attracts the attention of the passers
by and is almost certain to provoke
curiosity sufficiently to induce persons
to look inside the. stores that are so
handsomely ornamented without. Black
and gold are the most snowy kinds, and
it is satisfaction to know that signs
with black ground, flexible and beauti-
full letters in gold, are fast superseding
the tasteless affairs of which we have
spoken and of which we hope soon to
see tn elast.

THE SUNDAY NEws.-As is pretty
well known now, we propose to CON-
mence, on Sunday, January lst 1871,
the publication of a family newspaper,
to be called the WHEELING SUNDAY
News. 1t shall be our aim to make it
an attractive newspaper, free from poll
tics and sectarianism; to talk freely
about local matters and our city needs;
to give the latest news and agreeable
and entertaining reading Tor Sunday
mornings. There is no time when a
person feels the need of newspaper
more than on Sunday, and 10 satisfy this
need we have undertaken the enterprise.
We ask of our citizens a liberal sup
port, and will endeavor to deserve it.
Subscription books may be found this
morHing at the counting-room Of the
REGISTER, where every man, woman
and child in the city is invited to come
and subscribe for the SUNDAY News.
