if they see that al the good, and pleasant,
and beautiful things you possess are only
to be used when you have visitors. You
have no right to hope that your children
will have good manners or be refined If
they see only the coarsest of everything
when alone with you, and are called upon,
with company, to put on company man

other causes besides the one assigned. II
the enlarged yield followed solelyfrom the

OVer-D OctOred.

Without any disrespect to the Members Of the
medical profession, a profession honOred by al
thinking men, 1t is only just to say that they are
too thick on the ground. The consequences that
the community is doctored over much. When ma
ture needs only the gentle stimulant and Alternative,
which has become famous throughout the country
as a reliable medicine, under the name of aostet
ter's Stomach Bitters, she is not unfrequently
dosed with a dozen prescriptions, all experimental
from the Pharmacopeia. This is an evil, and
proves that the practice of medicine is far from
being 81 all times a healing art. At this period Of
the year, when the fall of the leaf indicates that
decay has seized upon the vegetable kingdom
many harrassing diseases are prevalent. CHIEF
among these may be mentioned fever
and bilious remlttent- The exhalations rising
from ~decomposing vegetation, and the heavy dews
and fOgs, are very apt to generate these com.
plants. The wisest policy Is TO protect the system
by a course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters at the
commencement OF the fall. Much suffering may
thereby be avoided. But If the disease has already
begun. its periodical visitaiions may readily be
checked, ard broken up by this active, yet harm
less, vegetable tonic.
But be on your guard against the char ataus
who are attempting to palm of, under various
names unwholesome compounds, which they pre-
tend to compare favorably with the great national
opposition from the field Bear in mind that every
bottle of genuine HOstetterhs Stomach Bitters is
authenticated by a splendidly engraved label. and
