Dom Piatt's Experience with Female
SmuG0lors.

Smugglors.
The female mind has turn for smuggling.
Show me female, and l will show you a
natural smuggler. | knew pious lady
once who was sent to Havana on account OF
her health. She was in the last stages of
the consumption, and gave up the remain
ing little space allotted to her in life to
meditation and prayer. She returned in
time, no wise strengthened in lungs, but
greatly increased in weight. Alas! the
weight did not come from healthy flesh.
She had two thousand choice Havana cigars
quilted in her pettic0ats. These she gave
to her spiritual adviser, a parsOn much ad-
dicted to smoking, and died in the odor of
sanctity. Her pious soul. let us say poet
ically, was waited to heaven upon the fra
grant clouds of the parsons choice Havanas.
She died in the noble discharge of her patri-
otto duty. All! would that knew a piOus,
patriotic lady in the last stages of consump-
ton, and just in from Havana. What edi-
ficatlOn l would get from her Christian
resignation and choice cigars.
While We were rafting from Canada
through the wooded regions represented in
the Senate by the wOoden-headed Puttyface
and old Influenza, l made the acquaintance
of an inestimable lady. sister to Congress

over $1,000 worth of laces. Her rounded
and graceful hustle contained Russian
muff, valued at $500. Madam ~ l cried III
the widest enthusiasm. "permit me to seize
your dexter continuation. Let me give it a
pumporial vibration. You are a loyal, pat
Iiotic female. You have nobly done your
duty, and gone far to confound the oppres-
sOr. Continue, madam; continue i'll your
virtuous course, and a suffering country will
bless you. feel rebuked in your presence.
But, not being sister to Congressman,
had not the means to invest. Alas | am

The japanese prince who has arrived at
San Francisco is named KochinOmega, and
is a brother of the ruling Mikado, and con-
sequently heir apparent to the throne. He
dresses like an ordinary American gentle
man, and conducts himself like one. He
will probably spend five years among our
educational institutions.

LET COMMON SENSE DECIDE.

What is the rational msde Of procedure in
cases Of general debility and nervous prostra-
ton! Docs not reason tell us that judicious
stimulation is required. To resort 10 violent
purgation in such case is absurd as il would be
to bleed starving man. Yet it is done eveey
day. Yes, this stupid and unphilosophical proc
tice is continued in the teeth Of the great fact
that physical weakness. with all the nervous dis
turbances that accompany it. is more certainly
and rabidly relieved by Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers than any other medicine at present known.
It is true that general debility is often attended
with torpidity or irregularity of the bowels, and
that this symptom must not be overlooked. But
while the discharge Of the waste matter Of the
system is expedited or regulated, ITS vIaoR MUST
BE RECRUITED. Tho Bitters do both. They COM
bine aperient and anti-bilious properties, with
extraordinary tonic power. Even whilc remoy-
ing distractions from the bowels. they tone and
iEvigorate those organs Through the stomach,
upon which the great vegetable specific acts di.
rectly, it gives healthy and permanent impetus
to every enfeebled function. Digestion is facili-
tated, the faltering circulation regulated, the
blood reinforced with new accession of the ali
mentary principle, the nerves braced, and all
| the dormant powers Of the system reused into
! healthy action; not systematically, as would be
tho case if mere stimulant were administered,
but for continuance 1t is in this way that
such extraordinary changes are wrought in the
| condition of the feeble, emancipated and ner-
| vous invalids by the use of this wonderful cor
| receive, Alternative and tonic. Let common sense
decide between such preparation and prostra-
| ting cathartic supplemented by poisonous as
| tringent like strychnine or quinia.

TIE "PAIN KILLER. !"

The Foreign and domestic demand for Perry
Davis soD's great medicine-the Pain Killer
vo. sever before 50 large as it has been of late
and we think The time has arrived when the dec
laration may be made, without Inc possibility q
refutation, that the city of Providence, knosee
Island has furnished the entire habitable globe
with medicine, which, in point of universally
of demand, extent of usefulness, complete eff
cheney for all the purposes for which 1t was de-
signed and widespread, enduring popularity, has
never been equalled by any medicine in Europe
or America.
The universally of the demand for the Pain
Killer is novel, interesting, and surprising
feature in the history of this medicine. Its fame
has gone out, into every quarter of the globe
The Pain Killer is now regularly sold in large
and steadily increasing quantities, not only to
general agents in every State and Territory Of
the Union, and every Province Of British Amer
lea, but to every South American State, to the
Sandwich Islands, to Cuba and ether West India
Islands; to England and Continental Europe;
to Mozambique Madagascar, Zanzibar and other
African lands, to Australia and Calcutta, Ran
COON and other places in India. 1t has also been
sent to China, and we doubt if there is any for
eign port or any inland city in Africa or Asia,
which is frequented by American European
missionaries, travellers or traders, into which the
Pain Killer has not been introduced and been
sought after.
The extent of its usefulness is another great
feature of this remarkable medicine. It is not
only the best thing ever known, as everybody
will confess, for bruises, cuts, burns, &c., but
for dysentery or cholera, OF any sort of bowel
complaint it is remedy unsurpassed for ef6cien-
cy and rapidity of action. In the great cities of
British India and in the West India Islands and
other hot climates it has become the standard
medicine for all such complaints, as well as for
dyspepsia, liver complaint and other kindred dis
orders. For coughs and colds, canker, asthma
and rheumatic difficulties, it has been proved by
the most abundant and convincing trials and tes-
timony, to be an invaluable medicine. The pro-
prietors in possession of letters from persons

AN old and experienced physician says ''much
that he learned under the name of science has
died out, and that simple homely experience has
largely taken the place of that scholastic knowl-
edge to which he and perhaps his instructors
once attached a paramount Importance" The
fact is, that 'simple homely experience" is the
gist of his scholastic attainments, and really
successful medicine, compounded of Vegetable
products, like DR.. Walkers Vegetable Vinegar
Bit.ers, proves the scientific research that has
made it such.
