THE INvALID-A PEN PI6TURE.-See
her pallid ceuntenance, but short time
ago the picture Of ruddy health, the envy
Of the school and the pride of the house
hold. She was always welcomed by. her
schoolmatesa for her 1.-the form and
pleasing disposition carried cheerfulness
Into their ranks. Diligent, punctual
and exemplary, obedient and graceful at
home, she won the hearts of all. But
alas, we are sorrowed. Those rosy
cheeks and ruddy cheeks are blanched
by Consumption. The voice once SO en-
chanting in laugh and song is feeble,
husky and supplanted by a hollow
cough. Let us approach her couch
gently and take her hand. DO not
shudder because of the feeble and pas
sionlessgrasp. The hand once SO hearty
and plumpi is emaciated and shows bony
outlines, while the cords and tortuous
veins are plainly mapped upon the sur
face. The pulse that bounded with re-
pletion, carrying vigor to the whole sys-
tenn and imparting life, beauty, vivacity
health and strenth, is delicate to the
touch. The feeble heart cannot propel
the thin, scanty blood with force Must
we loose her while yet in her teens |?
COMPANIONS and friends gather around
with words Of cheer and consolation, and
depart with moistened eyes and silent
stems, Must we lose her? No! there is
relief! Wecan stay this destroyer of our
happiness, and not suffer the loss of so
bright q gem. Something more is re-
quired now than dietary and hygienio
observance, for nature calls for aid and
she shalf have it. Take this pleasant
medicine. 1t is invigorating. How it
allays the irritable cough, improves the
appetite and digestion, and sends y
healthy tingle through the frame. The
blood Is enriched, nervous force increas-
ed, and the heart bounds with a new
impulse. See her face brighten by de-
grees; the color is returning, her voice
Is getting clearer, and pleasant words
are spoken. The strenth falters yet, but
is gaining, Let us take her out i'll the
warm sunshine. In short time she
will be able to go without our aid, q
cheerful girl, This delightful medicine
must be God-blessed. 1t is restoring
health to our loved one. She is emerg-
ing from her sickness sweeter and nObler
than before, and DR.. Pieree's Golden
Medical Discovery must have the credit
1t has raised her.. Sold by all first class
druggists everywhere.
THE LATEST SwINDLE.-Certain sane
timonious scharlatans would rfainy per-
suade the world that dittusive stimu-
lants have no medicinal value. and that
detestable slops, composed of gripping
&C ds and drastic purgatives, are better
tonics than the finest vegetable lngredl-
ents. combined with the purest and
meIlowest products of the still. But
this sort Of thing won't 60 down. The
stomach of our common sense rejects 1t,
as the stomach Of every man with an
undeprayed palate rejects, with lOath-
ing and adherence, ;, the nauseous abom-
nations, free from alcohol (which
Humbugs are trying to thrust down the
throats of Temperance mvalids under
the pretense that the filth will do them
good? 1t is notikely that while Plant
alton Bitters, the Standard Tonic OF
America, is anywhere accessible, such
sickening frauds can make much head
way, butiit is wellto put the public on
their guard against them. Il lst..., ~.
