A WORD TO FATHERS.

We have read a story of a lit
tie boy, who, when he wanted a
new suit of clothes, begged his
mother to ask his father if he
might have it. The mother sug-
gested that the boy might ask
for himself. II would" said the
boy, "butI l don'tfeel well enough
acquainted with him." There is
a sharp reproof to the father in
the reply of his son. Many a
father keeps his children so at a
distance from him, that they never
feel confidently acquainted with
him. They feel that he is a sort
of monarch in the family. They
feel no familiarity with him.
They fear him and respect him,
and even love him some, for chill
dren can not help loving some,
everybody about them, but they
seldom get near enough to him
to feel intimate with him. They
seldom go to him with their little
wants and trials. They approach
him through the mother. They
tell her everything. They have
a highway to her heart on which
they go in and out with perfect
freedom. In this keeping-off
plan, fathers are to blame. Chill
dren should not be held off. Let
them come near. Let them be
as intimate with the father as
mother. Let their little hearts
be freely opened. 1t is wicked
to freeze up the love-fountains
of little ones hearts. Fathers
do them an injury by living with
them as strangers. This drives
many a child away from home for
the sympathy his heart Graves,
and often into improper society.
1t nurses discomfort and distrust,
which many a child does not out
grow in his lifetime. Open your
hearts and your arms, oh, fathers !;
be free with your children ask
or their wants and trials; play
with them be fathers to them
.ruly, and then they will not need
l mediator between themselves
and you.

Has just received a new inven-
ton, in the way of an improve
ment in Ladies' Boots. The boot is
made high in the leg, with elastic
sides. The improvement consists
in arranging the elastic and lin
ing, that the elastic will clasp the
ankle; and the lining, while pro
tecting the elastic from the sweat
of the foot, viii also yield to its
contraction and expansion. Its
great beauty is this : that it is
easy to put on, fits snugly when
on, and protects the foot and limb
from cold. 1t will certainly be a
favorite with the ladies. Samples
can be seen at his shop. "

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases Of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.


such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption
Probably never before in the whole history Of
medicine, has any thing won so widely and SO
deeply upon the confidence Of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of years, and among most
of the races of men it has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, as it has become better KNOWN
Its uniform character and power to cure the va
rious affections of the lungs and throat, have
made it known as a reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forms of disease
and to young children, it is at the same time the
lent consumption, and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lungs. As provision against
sudden attacks of Group, it should be kept on
hand in every family, and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and coughs, all should be
provided with this antidote for them
Although settled Consumption Is thought In
curable, still great numbers of cases where the
disease seemed settled, have been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry Pecf0ruf. So complete Is its
mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and
Throat that the most obstinate of them yield TO II.
When nothing else could reach them, under the
Cheyyy Pecforaf they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great
protection from it.
AstL1na is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured BIZ taking the
Cherry PICTORIAL in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known, that we
need not publish the certificates Of them here, or
do more than assure the public that its qualities
are fully maintained.

Ayers Ague Cure,

For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &C.,
and indeed all the affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or niasmatic
poisons.
As its name implies, it does Cure, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis
muth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, it in nowise injuries any pa
tient. The number and importance of its cures
in the ague districts are literally beyond account,
and we believe without parallel in the history
of Ague medicine. Our pride is gratified by the
acknowledgements we receive of the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other REM
edies had wholly failed.
Cnacclimated persons, either resident IN, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be
protected by taking the 4GUE CURE daily.
For Lirer Complaints, arising from torpid
ity of the Liver, ii is excellent remedy, stimu-
lating the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, 1t
is an excellent remedy, producing many truly
remarkable cures, where other medicines had
failed.

greatly enjoying all occurrence at the recent
term of the Superior Court at Fitchburg. st
which judge presided. AS is usual at
the opening oil q term, O clergyman was pre-
sent and opened the sessions with prayer III

and guidance for the presiding Judge, he pro-
ceeded TO earnestly imp!orc the Lord for bless

be spared in lite and hca!'h du'lny his absence
and that, at the close o! the term he might he

SICK HEADACHE. recent medical writer
thus accounts for sick headache, from which SO
many persons suffer. He attributes it to weak
stomach and imperfect digestion, and that the
attacks are usually preceded by greater than
ordinary appetite. The stomach Is naturally
weak, and so long as it is not crowded 1t works
kindly. By and by more food is put toto lt-or
more Irritating kinds-than 1t can digest.
1t terments, an acid state is produced, and ACID
acts as an ilrltant upou the coats OF the stom'
acb. and this irritation is taken to be call Tor
food, to satisfy which more is taken, and all to
no purpose; the poor stomach revolts; but
with the rest during the headache, and the re-
lief from the vomiting, it RECEIVERS its wonted
tone. If this be correct, the remedy is very
simple one. Abstinence from food tor meal
or two, or denial of the unnatural cravings OF
the appetite would seem to be all that IS re-
oured. Sufferers from this disease should test
the value OF this advice.
