TO THE PUBLIC.

THE PAIN-KILLER manufactured by PERRY
DAVIS & SON has Won for itself reputation un-
surpassed in medicinal preparations. The univer-
salty of the demand for the Pan-killer is novel,
interesting, and surprising feature in the history
of this medicine The Pain Killer is now regu
larly sold in large and steadily increasing quanti
ties, not only to general agents in every State and
Territory cf the Union, and every Province in
British America, but to Buenos Ayres, Brazil.
Uruguay, Peru, Chilli, and other South American
States, to the Sandwich Islands, to Cuba and 9TH
er West India Islands to England and Cont
mental Europe; to Mozamblqne, Madagascar
Zanzibar, and other African lands to Australia,
and Calcutta, Rangoon and other places in India.
1t has also been sent to China, and we doubt i
there is any foreign port any inland city in AT
rica or ASIA which is freauented by American and
European missionaries, travellers or traders, into
which the Pain killer has not been introduced.
The extent of its usefulns.ss is another great
feature Of this remarkable medicine 1t is not only
the best ever known, as every body will confess,
for bruises, cuts, burns, &c, but for dysentery
cholera, or any sort of bowel complaint, it is a
remedy unsurpassed for efficiency and rapdity of
action. In the great cities OF British India and
the West India Islands and other hot climates, it
has become the standard medicine for all such COM
plants, as well dyspepsia, liver complaint, and
other kindred disorders. For coughs and colds,
canker, asthma and rheumatic difficulties, it has
been proved by the most abundant and convincing
trials and testimony, to be an invaluable medicine.
The proprietors are in possession of letters from
persons of the highest character and responsibility
testifying in unequivocal terms to the cures effect
ed and the satisfactory results produced, in an
endless variety of cases by the use of this great
medicine. That the Pain Killer is deserving of
all its prOprietors claim for it is amply proved by
the unparalleled popularity it has attained. 1t is a
sure and effective remedy. 1t is sold in almost
every country in the world, and is becoming more
and more popular every year. Its healing proper
ties have been fully tested all over the world and
it need only to be known to be priced.
Sold by all Druggists.

the weight of large mule, when one man,
who was a good judge of the weight of live

heavy all over as he was behind, he must
weigh not far from AZ 900 pounds.

strawberries were not injured. The eut

SEEDS FOR LATE PLANTING.

Some things cannot only be planted
late, but are often better for late plant
ing. We have thought it well to make
out a list of the l1oding varieties of seed
that it would be desirable to plant after

readers.

should be sown as late as June, in some

DOMESTIC RECIPES.
Green Tomato P,ckles.-To every gal
Ion of sliced tomatoes add two table
spoonfuis of salt, and let them stand
over night. Do not pour off the liquor,
but add tw o-thirds of a pound of sugar, a
pint grated horseradish, two tablespoons
of mustard. Put weight on the top
and set near the fire or in a warm place
until they become sour, when they should
be kept in a cool place. The juice of
the tomatoes forms the vinegar, and if
some are partly ripe it is all the better.
No scum rises on the top, and they will
keep long time.
Preserving Cut Flo,cers. When cut
flowers have faded after having been
placed in bouquet, or perhaps worn for
whole evening in head-dress, they
may be revived in the morning by cut
ting half an inch from the lower end of
the stem, and putting this end Instantly
into boiling water. The thickest tex
tured flowers amend most readily. Flow

table, after having been worn for hours.

way by cup full of hot water. Carna-
tons, azales, roses and geranIums may
be thus treated. and have been known
to keep fresh afterwards almost as long
as if they had been newly gathered
For keeping flowers in water, finely
powdered charcoal in which the stalks
can be stuck, placed at the bottom of the
vase, is-a wonderful preservative, rem

impurities.
