DR.. PIcrce's FavorIte Prescription
Is everywhere strongly recommended
by the Medical Faculty and is largely
prescribed among their female patients.
1t is worthy OF all confidence, as may
be seen from the following testimonial:
ATLANTA, ILL.,, July 18th. 1873.
DIR. r. V. PIERCE, Buffalo, N. Y:
Dear Sri have not words to ex.
press my gratitude to you for your adj
vice and assistance in my case. There
is not one who has uaed your medicines
since they have been brought here but
that can say With me they have been
greatly benefited. Since have been 30
helped by it's use six or seven around

cines, aud now use it in their families,
alter being cured of the same disease
as mine. You do not know what q
wonder it created ia our city, by ito re,
storing my sister / wrote you about, for
she had been under the care OF three OF
our best doctors, but could not cit up
but for q few minutes at one time. l
begged OF her to try your medicines,
and before she had used half OF the
bottles she could 60 all around the
yard, and has now just come home

Many other acts OF importance were
passed which are Of interest alone to
members OF the association. We met
in council and looked each other in the
lace, consulting together for mutual
good, and the general prosperity OF the
land. We parted from each other with
the fraternsl recognition Of brotherhood
and with knowledge that our interests
as class are one insepsrable. We
hope our meeting together as brother
farmers, will the more directly identify
our Jefferson brothers with US OF Berke-

may become one in every sentiment
pertaining to our interest and the per-

We can contemplate no more painful and
melancholy spectacle than mind In ruins
or the wreck Of Nervous System. And
yet Mental and Nervous Disbursements are
weary increasing at An alarming rate.
Broken down Constitutions, Physical kx-
haustion, Nervous Weakness, Paralysis of
the Brain, General Debility. Early Decay OF
Manhood, Cases OF suicide and Insanity,
the land. No rank or class Is exempt from
these terrible maladles. Married and
single male and female, rich and poor, all
castles are included In the dark catalogue.
The young man OF proud birth, fortune and
intellect, whose aims, hopes and ambition
should have led him up to the higher
plains Of life, has fallen prey 10 the Great
Destroyer. The youth OF humble paren.
tage, whose cheek once bloomed and blush
ed with innocence and health, whose eye
once sparkeled with the radiant fires Of q
brilliant mind, whose step once was manly
and firm, is now among It's myriad victims.
Uncounted thousands perish thus. year
af'e r year without knowing the cause OF
their ruin until the golden sands Of life have
all run out Like stars that set to rise no
more, SO do they fall into premature graves,
pass from mortal sight forever and fade
away into eternaloblivion.
But Is there no physician for this large
class OF human sufferers and no Antidote
for these wide spread maladies? We ans
1rer 1es Your life may yet be redeemed
from de truciion. and crowned with many
a year OF health and happiness. We know
that physicians in general practice, for tOdnt
OF crpcTience and skill In this class Of ailments
have done but little for their relief and
absolutely nothing for their cure.
DR.. Lopgdon has devoted much OF his
professional life to these forms OF Debility.
and his great skill in their manage 10 ent is
only the natural result OF thorough me dl.
cal education and enlarged experience. His
treatment OF these Diseases embraces both
Hyeiene and Medicine, and has proven
entirely successful In hundreds OF cases

Good Night.

How tenderly and sweetly falls the
gentle good night" into loving hearts,
as members of family separate and re-
tire for the night. What myriads of
hasty words and thoughtless acts, en-
gendered in the hurry and business of
the day. are forever blotted out by its
benign influence Small token indeed,
but it is the little cOurtesies that make
up the sum of happy home. 1t is
only the little courtesies that can so
beautifully round off the square cor
ners in the homes of laboring men and
women. The simple Il thank you
for favor received, will fill with hap
piness the heart of the giver. True
wealth is not counted by dollars and
cents, but by the gratitude and affec-
tion of the heart If home be hap
by, IL is of heaven the truest earthly
symbol. fla home be happy, wheth-
er the owner possess a patch of ground
of one or thousand acres, they are in
the end wealthy beyond mathematical
calculations.
Then how much more lovingly are
the sable folds of night gathered around
the happy homes: how much more con-
fidingly do its members repose their
weary bodies in care of Divine good
ness, soothing their overtaxed minds
20 the realities of beautiful dream
land awakened, refreshed and invigo-
rated for the coming days labor, by
having bid their loved ones an affec-
tionate good night" And if during
this life we have faithfully attended TO
all these little courtesies, these little
soul-needs, if We have guarded careful
ly all Gods hearts" placed in our
keeping, at the close of its brief, yet
evcntful day, how much easier to bid
all our dearly beloved ones a final
good night"
