The Inyalid-A Pen Picture.

See her pallid countenance, but a
short time ago the picture OF ruddy
health, the envy of the school and the
pride of the household. She was al
ways welcomed by her schoolmates, for
her 1.-the form and pleasing disposition
carried cheerfulness into their ranks.
Diligent, punctual n exemplary, ODE
dent and graceful at home, h won the
hearts of all. But alas, we are sorrowed.
Those rosy cheeks and ruddy lips are
blanched by consumption. The voice
once SO enchanting in laugh and song is
feeble, husky and supplanted by a hol-
low cough. Let US approach her couch
gently and take her hand. Do not
shudder because of the feeble and pas
sionless grasp. The hand once SO hearty
and plump is emaciated and shows bony
outlines, while the cords and tortuous
veins Ire 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 strength, is delicate to the
touch. The feeble heart cannot propel
the thin, scanty blood with force. Must
we lose her while yet in her teens =?
Companions and friends gather around
with words of cheer and consolation
and depart with moistened eyes and
silent steps. Must we lose her No
there is relief We can stay this de-
stroyer of our happiness and not suffer
the loss of SO bright a gem Something
more is required now than dietary and
hygienic observance, for nature calls
for aid and she shall have it. Take this
pleasant medicine. 1t is invigorating.
How it allays the irritable cough, inn
proves the appetite. and digestion and
sends a healthy Jingle through the
frame. The blood is enriched, nervous
force increased, and the heart bounds
with a new impulse See her face

ing, her voice is getting clearer, and
pleasant words are spoken. The strength
~falters yet but is gaining. Let Is take
her out in the warm sunshine. In a
short time she will be able to go without
our aid, a cheerful girl. This delightful
medicine must be God-blessed. 1t is re-
storing health to our loved one. She is
emerging from her sickness sweeter and
nobler than before, and DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery must have
the credit. 1t has raised her. Sold by

A Daring Aeronaut.

Young Donaldson, who made q bal
loon ascension at Reading, Pa, on the
Both of August last, and performed a
series of trapeze feats when a mile or
more from the earth, repeated his thrill
ing performance in Norfolk, Va, on
Monday last. There was no basket to
the balloon, but its place was supplied
by a trapeze similar to those used by
circus performers, and above the trapeze
was placed a hoop, secured to which was
a suit of heavy clothing to be used by
the aerial voyager when he encountered
the cold current.
The Norfolk Journal, in describing
the ascension, says that when the bal
loon was released from its moorings and
reached a great altitude, Donaldson
suddenly, and apparently with little
effort, threw himself into a sitting pos
ture on the bar, kissing his hand to the
crowd below. Suddenly, pretending to
lose his balance, he fell backward,
sliding head downward until he caught
by his toes on the s~ide-ropes that sus
pended the trapeze bar. In this perilous
position he swung to and fro several
seconds time which seemed an age
to the awe-stricken crowd below.
Throwing himself back in his seat on
the bar, the aeronaut sat astride the
same. Then began a series of gymnas-
tic evolutions-balancing himself on his
back, turning over and skinning the
cat" by the side ropes, &c. Upward
grandly and steadily rose the balloon,
cleaving the air like a mighty bird
When the balloon was a mere speck in
the distance, invisible to the naked eye
and almost through powerful telescopes
the man with nerves. of steel and the
heart of a lion repeated his daring ira
peze feat of hanging head downward
suspended by his toes. Such a scene
was never before witnessed in Norfolk
and seldom anywhere in the world.

victs at least one.

Fraudulent MISREPRESENTATION.

Among the pernicious frauGs CT the period. there is
one which especially deserves the apprehension of all
who place a proper value on health and life. The
swindle referred to consists in the attempt of ire
sponsible parties, in different sections of the United
States, to force upon the market vile astringent com
pounds manufactured out of damaged or worthless
drugs and refuse liquor, as preparations possessing the
rare medicinal virtues of the most popular and efica-
cious of all vegetable tonics and observation-disclosures
ter's Stomach Bisters.
The concocters of these local bitters" are, in the
truest sense of the phrase, public enemies. Their fiery
potions inhame the stomachs. stupefy the brains, and
shatter the nerves of those who are unwise enough to
accept them as substitutes for the famous Vegetable
Invigorant, that for twenty years has been known
throughout the Western Hemisphere as q standard
article.
The fame of Hostetter's Bitters as a health-preserv-
ing, yitaizing medicine, is as wide as the world, AID
the miserable attempts of needy nostrum-mongers to
supplant it would be treated with silent contempt,
were it not that serious cons: quences sometimes fol-
lew the use of the nefarious compounds in question.
Whoever recommends any of them as remedies for
Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Constipation, Intermittent
Fever. Rheumatism, or any other complaint for which
Hostetter's Bitters is a known specific, is guilty of
moral, if not a legal misdemeanor At this season,
when the sun is releasing from the earth. in the form
OF unwholesome vapors, the active principle of dis
ease, a course of Hostetter's Bitters will be of the ut
most service to persons with feeble constitutions,
