The idea of a Universal Medicine
Is at last realized in Dr.. Walkers
California Vinegar Bitters. This con-
centrated essence of the finest medi-
cinal herbs and roots in the Western
hemisphere, eradicates all diseases
which have not undermined the sour
ces of vitality, and in Chronic 1ndi-
gestion, Nervous Headache, Conges-
ton of the Liver, rheumatism, Gout,
General Debility, and innumerable
ulcerous and scabious disorders, it is
q specific absolute and Invaluable.

The Saturday Evening Post.
The Oldest and Best Story Paper Pub.
lishcd.
Founded August 4, A. D. 1921.

For more than half century the
Saturday Evening Post has been the
GREAT LITERARY WEEKLY
of tho Country, and has ever borne a
widespread and unbL,mishel reputation
for tho unsurpassed purity, refinement
and excellence Of the Serials, Sketches
and Miscellaneous reading matter.
1t is prc-eninently
The Best Family Paper
that is published in this country, from its
never containing anything that would
offend the feelings Of any one, either in
q religious or political sense, or that
could not be read at any tircside without
objection from the most fasti,lious.
The circulation of the Saturday Even.
ing Post, through not quite SO large
perhaps, as its younger contemporaries
is not, like that OF some Of tle,n, tluctu-
ating, and too often short-lived, but
SURE, SOLID AND SUBSTANTIAL,
based upon the intrinsic merit of the pa.
per itself. and not dependent OH any cX.
traneous influences, such as the popnlari
ty Of individual writer's, &c.
Good, however, as the Saturday Even
ing Post has been in the past, it is oul
intention to make it still better in thu
future, and with this object i'll view w
will effect marked Improvement in eve
ry department Of the paper, and viii
call to our assistance writer's of admitted
ability and known reputation.
BY increasing its former attractions
and adding many judicious and pleas
ing novelties, by studying how to please
and cultivate the popular taste, by in
creasing industry and enterprise, and by
enlarged facilities, we hope to make new
friends with each and every issue, ant
continue to maintain the claim of til,
: Saturday Evening Post to it's title of TIL
OLDEST AND THE BEST Of Family Stor,
Papers.

The Worlds FayOritc.

THE SALES of the SINGER last year
/ was the greatest ever attained for
any Sewing Machine in year, and was
nearly double tho sales Of its highest
competitor, as may be seen by reference
to tho account of sales for 1873, from
sworn returns made to the owners Of the
Sewing Machine Patents-from which
statistics we select the five leading ma
chimes, viz:
The Singer sold 2S2, 444
Wheeler & Wilson, 1880
Domestic, " 40,114
" Grover & Baker, 36,176
4" Weed, 2l,769
It will be observed that the difference
in favor of the SINGER, is the enormous
amount of l13,254 over the highest COM
petitor. This result has been obtained
after years of competition.
We submit to All interested public if it
is claiming too much to say the Singer
is the most popular Sewing Machine in
the world.
