WHAT IL VIAJN ViTEe

This wine is prepared to take the place of
Whisky and other spirits known TO be mi de up
of Fusil Oil aud other deleterous articles. The
Wine of Life is distilled with great care. espec-
tally for those who require healthy stimulant

the sick room, in place of the vilisinous Brandy,
Whiskey, and other Liquors now in use and 30
often depended upon. In fact, 1t is a constant
complaint OF hysicisns in this country that il
IS impossible to procure BRANDY, Whiskey and
Wine for their patients. We ask the Medi
eai faculty and the public to give Warmers Vim
um Vita or Wine of Life q trial, and we ask
chemists AMI physicians to anaiy we it, then speak
OF 1t according to its merits, compare 1t with
Whisky, Brandy. and other such articles, and
see the difference. Ifthey find the Wine of Life
10 pure and wholesome, and the other LIQUORS
poisonous, (which they certainly will do,) then
they are morally bound to prescribe and RECON-
mend the Wine of Life to their patients and
friends as the best stimulapt and tonic in USE
An az valuable substitute for whiskey and
Brandy; but should they find it not pure and
what the proprietors claim for it, let them pub
lcly deuouuce it. 1t is the Physicians duty to
learn and find out which is the most wholesome
stimulsnt for his patients, and to do 60 he must
examine andlook into the quality of each article,
and learn for himself if the Wine Of Life has an
peculiar merits to warrant its general use. The
proprietors claim the Wine of Life to be more
wholesome and tar superior and cheaper than
whiskey or brandy, or, in fact, any other article
in common use, and ought to be used in every
family. Everybody should give it trial. 1t is
a new thing, only been in use about one year, y ct
it has alread' gained great name and a won
derfnl sale, and whoever once tries il always
recommends 1t to his friends. It has the same
strength as whiskey, but it is peculiarly pleasant
even delicious, and any one would be crazy to
take whishey, &c, ifhe can get the Wine Of Life.
1t is for sale by Druggists everywhere, in quart
bottles. price one dollar csn be bought by the
case, containing dozen bottles. for ten dollars.
We challenge the world to produce a purer,
cheaper, and nicer article than Warmers Vinum
Vita, or Wine of Life. Take bottle of ir home
and give 1t trial. doaw-thur- kw1y

After the review, the several companies
placed themselves in the most appropriate
attitude to receive the magnificent silk flag

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN.

All women know that it is beauty, rather than
genius, which all generations of men have wor-
shipped in the Can it be wondered anthem,
that so much of woman's time and attention
should be directed to the means of developing
and preserving that beauty Women know, too,
that when men speak of the intellect of women,
they speak critically, tamely, coolly, but when
they come to speak of the charms of 9 beautiful
women, their language and their eyes kiudle
with an enthusiasm which shows them to be pro-
foundly, if not, indeed, rdicously in earnest. 1t
is part OF the natural sagacity of women to per-
eeive sll this, and therefore or rloy every allow
able art to become the goddess of that alteration.
Preach to the contrary, we may, against the
arts employed by women for enhancing their
beauty, there still stonds the eternal fact, that
the world does not reier the society of an ugly
woman of genius to that Of beauty of less in
tellectual requirements. The world has ct al
lowed no higher mission TO women than to be
beautiful, and it would seem that the ladies of
the persent age are carrying this idea of the
world to greater extremes than ever, for ell wo-
men now to whom nature has denied tail. manic
power of beauty, supply the deficiency by the use
Of most beautiful toilet article, known the
"Bloom of Youth" which has been lately intro
duced into this country by GEORGE W. LAIRD,
delicate beautifer, which smooths out all indep-
tations, burrows, scars, removing tan, freckles,
and discoloratioDs from the skin, leaving the
complexion clear, brilliant, and beautiful. the
skin soft and smooth. With the assistance of
this new American trick of Lady toilet, female
beauty is destined to play a larger par. in the
admiration of men and the ambition of women
than all the arts employed since her creation.
Prof. O. F. Chandler Chemist to the MetropoN
tan Board of Health, has recently prepared q
chemical analysis of this delightful toilet prep
sration, and reported that the "Bloom of Youth"
was harmless, containing nothing injurious to
the health Ladies need have no fear of using
this invaluable toilet a, quisi,ion.
