WHAT is NEEDED.

BOSTON, Feb. Is, 1871,
Mr.. Fl. r. STEvENs-Dear Sir: About one year
since found myself in feeble condition from
general debility. VEGETINE was strongly rec
commended to me by friend who had been
much benefited by its use. Iprocured the arti-
Gle and, after useng several bottles, was re-
stored to health, and discontinued its use. feel
quite confident that there is no medicine super
for to it Tor those mplaints for which it espec
tally prepared and would cheerfully recommend
it to those who feel that they need something to
restore them to perfect health. Respectfully
Yours, U. J., PETTINGILL'
Firm of s VI. Pettingin & Co., 10 State st. Bos-
ton.
yegitine extends it's influence into every part
of the human organism, commencing with its
foundation, correcting diseased action and res
toring vital powers, creating healthy forma-
tion and puriication of the blood, driving out di
sease and leaving Nature to perform its 'otted
task. Vegitine is sold by all druggists.

These chromos are in ever sense American.
They are by an original American process, with
signs of American Scenery by an American
painter, and presented to subscribers to the first
successful American Art journal. If no better
an interest no foreign prodution can inspire,
and neither are they any the worse If by reason
of peculiar facilities of production they cost the
publishers only a trifle, while equal in every re-
double the subscription price of THE ALDiNE.
Persons of taste will prize these pictures for
themselves-nOt for the price they did or did not
cost, and will appreciate the enterprise that
renders their distribution possible.
