thanks to you for benefits derived from the use
of Vegetine, and to benefit others, will state /:
When eight or nine years old was afflicted
with Scrofula, which made its appearance in
my eyes, face and head, and was very near
blind for two years. Ali kinds of operations
were performed on my eyes, and all to no good
result. Finally the disease principally settled
in my body, limbs and feet, and at times in an
aggravated way.
Last Summer was, from some cause, weak
in my spine and Kidneys and ii was at times
very hard to retain the urine Seeing your ad-
vertisement in the Commercial, bought bot
tie of VEGETINE, and commenced using ac-
cOrding to directions. In two or three days
obtained great relief. After using four or five
bottles noticed it had a wonderful effect on
the rough, scaly blotches on my body and legs
one after another disappeared until they were
all gone, and attribute the cure of the two
diseases to Vegetine, and nothing else.
If am ever affected with anything of the
kind again shall try Vegetine as the only re-
liable remedy. Once more accept my thanks,
and believe me to be- Very gsTsPsetp5alRay;

Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, ETC., are al
ways unpleasant, and at times they become
the most distressing and dangerous diseases
that can affect the human system. Most dis
eases of the Kidneys arise from impurities in
the blood, causing humors which settle on

blood, thereby causing healthy action to all
the organs of the body.

KIDNEY COMPLAINT.

Probably there is complaint that aff1icts
the human system, which is so little under
stood at the present time, as some of the varied
forms of Kidney Complaints
There is no disease which causes such acute
pain more alarming in its results than when
the kidneys fail to secrete from the blood the
blood the uric acid, and other poisonous sub
stances, which the blood accumulates in its cir
culation through the system.
If from any cause the kidneys fail to perform
the functions deYolving upon them, the cumu-
lalions are taken up by the absorbents and the
whole system thrown into a state of disease,
causing great pain and suffering, and very often
immediate death. Hence the importance of
keeping the kidneys and blood in healthy
condition, thu ough which all the impurities of
the body must pass.

THE STANDARD.
THURSDAY, MAY 30. 1878.
Husband and I.

"I have been to see Mrs. Hendon,
Jack"
"Well, that is more than 1 shall do at
present" said Jack. 81 don't intend to
60 and see Hendon again until his wife
has learned to manage her children"
"Oh that will come in time. Remem-
ber her early troubles
al don't know" said Jack. Some
people never seem to find out how to
treat the young ones. Iwould not stand
second to any one in loving and admir-
ing children; but they want keeping in
their places, and they should be taught
to obey"
And this, in my opinion, is the secret
of making child happy, and of finding
happiness in child. He or she must be
taught to obey; and in ordinary cases,
this difficult lesson should be learned be-
fore child is two years and half old.
Jack and l have had one struggle with
each of our children, and with us that
struggle has never had to be repeated.
The little one was given thoroughly to
understand that his will must give way
to ours; and when that was accom-
plished, the great work was done. After
ward, the watchfulness necessary was
chiefly over our own conduct. We tried
never to allow ourselves to give any or
der that we did not see was obeyed
never to make any threat that was not
carried into effect, nor any promise that
was not fulfilled. 1t is marvellous how
child knows when parents word can
be relied on. | know very well (no one
better) how difficult it is for mother to
keep herself sufficiently up to the mark
to see that her wishes are attended to.
1t seems so much easier, for the moment
to let things slide, and it entails so much
difficulty afterward. The trouble is
really the greatest at the beginning
for if child forms while young habit
of obedience, and if the younger ones
see that the elder ones obey, comfort
and happiness seem to follow. almost a:
matter of course. There is no doub
that obedient, well-conducted children
are by far the happiest. Once begin try
ing to give child everything he wants
and the old story is soon repeated-h'
asks for the moon, or something equal.

Boston, May 80, 1871.
H. r. Stevens, Esq: Dear Sir-I have been
badly afflicted with Kidney Complaint for ten
years; have suffered great pain in my back,
hips and side, with great difficulty in passing
urine, which was often, and in very small
quantities, frequently accom- panied with blood
and excrutiating pain.
have faithfully tried most of the popular
remedies recommended for my complaint;
have been under the treatment of some of the
most skillful physicians in Boston, all of whom
pronounced my case incurable. This was my
condition when was advised by a friend to try
the Vegetine, and could see the good effects
from the first dose took, and from that mo-
ment kept on improving until was entirely
cured, taking in ALL should think, about six
bottles.
1t is indeed a valuable medicine and If
should be afflicted again in the same way, 1
would give dollar dose, if could not get it
without. Respectfully,

ERRORS IN BooKs.-It is related OF lit
erary man in Greece, that he undertook
to publish book which should contain
not single error. To accomplish this
result, after having the proof-sheets care
fully revised by different persons, he
hung them up in the public room of the
college, offering a reward of one guinea
to any person who would detect any
error therein. Many of the learned,
attracted by desire to succeed. and
others by the reward, carefully perused
the sheets. When the book made its
appearance, on the very first page, and
in the second line, typographical error
was discovered.

The following incident illustrates the
high rate of speed attained by the trains
on the Rajpootana State railway, India:
"a few weeks back the morning train for
Agra started from Jeypore, leaving
behind lusty native gentleman who had
important business to transact the same
evening at Akbarabad, but who, unfor
tunately, arrived too late at the station
to procure ticket and seat Nothing
daunted, the Rajpoot gathered up his
quilted skirts for a race with the train
to the next station, feeling confident he
would arrive there in time to obtain the
vexatious ticket He was soon ahead,
and then knowingly ran in front of the
engine between the rails, for he rightly
conjectured it would be manslaughter
were he run over. The driver whistled,
and the stoker shouted, and the stoker
shouted, but in vain. At length both
driver and stoker jumped off the engine,
and giving chase caught the breathless
native, and deposited him in the luggage
van. He was fined eight annas at Agra
"a sum considerably less than the cost
of railway ticket-and he caught the
train, which was what he wanted"

PAINN THE BACK.

There is no remedy known to medical sci
ence which has proved itself more valuable in
cases of Kidney Complaints than the Vegetine.
1t acts directly upon the secretions, cleanses
and purifies the blood, and restores the whole
system to healthy action.
The following extraordinary cure of great suf-
ferers, who had been given up by the best ply
sicians as hopeless cases, will speak for Them
selves, and should challenge the most profound
attention of the medical faculty, well as OF
those who are suffering from Kidney Com
nlaint.

THE BEST MEDICINE.

East Marshfield, Aug. %, 1870.
Mr.. Stevens: Dear Sir-I am Seventy-one
years of age; have suffered many years with
Kidney Complaints, weakness in my back and
stomach. was induced by friends to try your
VegetirAe, and think it the best medicine for
weakness of the kidneys ever used. have
tried many remedies for this complaint, and
never found so much relief from the Vege-
tine. 1t strengthens and invigorates the whole
system Many of my acquaintance have
taken it, and believe it to be good for all the
complaints for which it is recommended.
Yours truly,
