that the disabilities of her married condition
rendered it Impossible that she should be
bound by her obligations rs an attorney
Mrs. Bradwell afterwards submitted print
argument to the court, which is Represented
as being very able, and the court recoAS'a

treatment of Pulmonic Consumption The Pull
mono Syrup ripens the morbid matter, dis
charges it, and purifes the blood. The Mandrake
Pills act upon the liver, remove all distractions
therefrom, give the organ healthy tone, and
cure Liver Complaint which is of the most
promi nent causes of Consumption.
The Sea Weed Tonic invigorstes the powers of
the stomach, and by Strengthening the digestion
