FEMALE COMPLAINT.

That claims its victims throughout the
length and breadth of our land.
Many females suffer in some way at each
monthly period; some girls are in great
peril at the commencement Of menstruation.
while older ones dread its decline at the
turn of life" Sometimes the menstrual
flow is too much, or too little, or may be
attended with pain; may be irregular or en-
tirely checked, or changed in appearance
attended with other distressing symptoms
Leucorrhea, or the "Wh1tes," frequently
drains the system, or liberation of the womb
may create pain and cause rapid prostration.
Falling of the womb is an exceedingly
common complaint, giving much trouble
and distress, which, under ordinary treat
ment, is difficult to cure.
Mysteries. Green Sickness, Irritability of
the Womb, and other serious and fatal com
plants follow the female sex throughout
life. Lives there medical gentleman who
has or can relieve the fair sex Of the above
troubles Not many. Is there no com
bination Of remedial agents that will come
to her rescue? We answer Yes.

Death is at the Door.

In all these complaints the system ev;.
IDENTIFY shows want of red blood, and Mr.
Churchill, IN his work on Disease of Fe-
males, says: "Bearing in mind that the
blood is remarkably deficient in red cor
puscles, and the known property of iron to
correct this condition, theory suggests it as
the most to be relied on, the best OF which
is the Citrate. Citrate of Iron enters
largely into the composition Of English Fe-
male Bitters, combined with powerful vege-
table tonics of rare qualities.
Among the mountains of Tennessee and
the piney woods of Mississippi, is found a
certain hard and flinty root, which has been
in secret use by some old midwives for
many years, possessing magic powers in
regulating and restoring all females suffer-
ing with any affection of the womb This
root we have obtained, gave it fair test in
our practice and it is now one of the prin
ciple ingredients in these Bitters. Other
powerful uterine and general tonics also
enter into its composition. We also add
Leptandra or Black root, sufficient to act
upon the liver and keep the bowels open.

THE SHACKLEs OF MATRIMoNY-NEw
WAY TO MANAGE UNRULY HUsBANDs.-At
last we learn of woman who, when trou-
bled with drunken husband, does not waste
her time in tears and indignant words, but
rather allows him to 60 on without him
drance, after taking proper precautions
against his encroachments and the plan
she has adopted has proved so ef1icacious
that we recommend others in the same po-
sition to initiate it.
Officer Trabold, of the Twenty-frst pre-
cinct, while on patrol duty this morning about
daylight, on Third avenue, near Thirtieth
street, discovered homeless looking man
sitting on q door step. Thinking the cir
cumstance very singular at best, the officer
approached him, and to his surprise saw
that he was handcuffed. His first idea was
that he had captured an escaped prisoner,
and took him to the station-house. Upon
arriving there he was questioned concern
ing himself, and, after considerable hest
tation, stated that the "bracelets had
been put upon him by some of his fellow
boarders, for a lark. He gave his name as
Lafayette S. Coates, residing at No. 3I5
East Twenty-third street. They detained
him at the station, and sent an officer to the
above number to ascertain the truth of his
statements, and then the whole affair was
discovered. .<.....,
The officer saw Mrs. Coates, his wife,
who stated that she kept the house there,
and that her chief cause of annoyance was
her husbands intemperance. His mere in.
toxication was not the worst feature of the
case, for when he got in this condition he
would break whatever he could get his
hands upon, or else carry off her goods and
pawn them. This, she stated, she had
borne for some time, but was now about
tired of it; so that to prevent him doing
any more harm, she had procured the
bracelets" and whenever he got affected
by liquor she put them on, and thus held
him in subsection. When Lafayette, who
remained at the station, was informed Of
this statement, he looked rather sheepish,
but could not deny the truth of it, and the
supposition, if he gets the bracelets on him
again, is that he will remain ut home and
keep clear of the police.-Ne,c York Conf

How THE BILL is RECEIvED.-The COM
mittec's bill fails to give satisfaction either
to the moderate Republicans or the Demo
Gratis, although it is not quite IS ultra as
was to be expected. 1t is true it imposes
no test t-oath, but still it's conditions are Oh
jcctionable, and especially that feature
which makes certain acts of the Virginia
Legislature irrcyocable. The bill will be
fought step by step in its progress through
the House, but there does not seem to be
much doubt of its eventual passage. Mr..
Bingham can hardly hope to get lis bill
through, and he and his friends will, there
fore, probably accept this as the least of the
evils -Hash;nyton tclcgram to Baltimore
