vEGETINE.
Three Points for Considera-
ton.

During the past five years the VEGE.
TINE has been steadily working itself
into public favor, and those who were at
first most incredulous in regard to Its
merits are now its most ardent friends
and supporters.
There are three essential causes tor
those having such horror of patent
medicines, changing their opinion and
lending their influence toward the adj
yancement of VEGETINE. 1st-It is
an honestly-prepared medicine from
barks, roots and herbs. 2d-It honest
Iy aceomplishes all that is claimed for
it, without leaving any bad effects In the
system. 3d-It presents honest vouchers
i'm testimonials from honest, well-known
citizens, whose signatures are suffi-
cient guarantee of their earnestness in
the matter. Taking into consideration
the vast quantity of medicine brought
conspicuously before the public through
the flaming advertisements in the news
paper columns, with no proof of merit
or genuine vouchers of what it has
done, we should be pardoned for mani
Testing small degree of pride in pre-
senting the following testimonial from

The Tired Body Sues for Sleep.
BOSTON, March 1s, 1874.
Fl. R. STEVENS, ESQ.,:
Dear Sir-It is as much from a sense
of duty as of gratitude that l write to
say that pour VEGETINE-even If it
is patent medicine-has been of great
help to me when nothing else seemed to
avail which could safely use. Either
excessive mental work or unusual care
brings upon me nervous exhaustion
that desperately needs sleep, but as des-
perately defies it. Night after night the
poor, tired body sues for sleep until the
day-dawn is welcomed back, and we be-
gin our work tired out with an almost
fruitless chase after rest. Now l have
found that little VEGETINE taken
just before retire gives me sweet and
immediate sleep, and without any of the
evil effects of the usual narcotics. l
think two things would tend to make
brain-workers sleep. 1st-A little less
work. 2d-A little more VEGETINE.
This prescription has helped me.
Now l have a particular horror of
''patent medicines" but have great
er horror of being afraid to tell the
straight out truth. The VEGETINE
has helped me, and own it up.
Yours, &C.,

Mass, will be read with interest BY

from the same disease as afflicted the
son of the Rev. Z. S. Best. No person
can doubt this testimony, and there is
no doubt about the curative powers of
VEGETINE:
NATICK, Mass, Jan. l, 1874.
Mr.. II. r. STEVENS:
Dear Sir-We have good reason for
regarding your VEGETINE medicine
of the greatest value. We feel assured
that it has been the means of saving our
sons life. lis now seventeen years of
age; for the last two years he has suf-
fered from necrosis of his leg, caused
by scrofulous affection, and was so far
reduced that nearly all who saw him
thought his recovery impossible. A
council of able physicians could give us
but the faintest hope of his ever rally
ing, two of the number declaring that
he was beyond the reach of human rem
edies, that even amputation could not
save him, as he had not vigor enough to
endure the operation. Just then we
commenced giving him VEGETINE,
and from that time to the present he has
been continuously improving. He has
lately resumed his studies, thrown away
crutches and cane, and walks about
cheerfully and strong.
Though there is still some discharge
from the opening where the limb was
lanced, we have the fullest confidence
that in a little time he will be perfectly
cured.
He has taken about three dozen bottles
of VEGETINE, but lately uses but lit
tie, as he declares that he is too well to
be taking medicine.
Respectfully yours,

THE WAR CLOUD.

The War will be Short, Sharp and Decisive
From the Chicago Tribune
For the present at least, there are
but two combatants in this war,-Rus.
STA and Turkey. Russia never would
have struck had not Austria promised
to be neutral, with the sure prospect
OF territorial acquisition. Germany
has notified England it can take no
part IN checking the Russian advance.
Italy is neutral, modestly asking for
the little slice of Tunis when the Tur.
key is carved. France can make no
move unless Germany does. What
England Will do remains to be seen.
She must define her attitude before
long, but it is exceedingly doubtful
whether she will do more than render
indirect help by selling them mu-
nltlons of WARRIOR cash. She has no
object OF sending troops into the field
unless the Russians threaten Constan-
tinople. or a general war ensues upon
the partition of the spoils. Thus, for
the present, Russia and Turkey are the
only combatants.
The war will be short one and will
not extend beyond its present limits.
The Russians will make short work of
the Turks. They have gained time by
their crafty diplomacy to place the
army and navy On powerful footing,
and they are now sweeping down upon
| Turkey like the resistless march of
destiny. Russian generals are already
in complete command of the ServianS.
One powerful army is concentrated at
Bender, near Odessa, and will move
down into Roumania. The other is at
Tiiis, an the trars-Caucasian side, and
will sweep through Turkey in Asia.
The whole Salvonic race is in arms
against the Turks, and will make a
winter campaign of fearful severity
They can fight in the snow. The
Turks are summer warriors. There
can be but one issue to the campaign
the overthrow of the Turks, the end
Of centuries of oppression, torture, and
tyranny, the rescue of the Christians

the victorious Cross.
After this is attained, then what

The Glassmaker's Fate.
From the London Times.

From the London Times.
In ssBook of Curiosities" we read:
"There was an artiicer in Rome who
made vessels of glass of so tenacious a
temper that they were as little liable
to be broken as those that are made
of gold and silver. When, therefore,
he had made a vessel of the pure sort,
and such as he thought a present
worthy of Caesar alone, he was admit
ted into the presence of the then En-
peror Tiberius. The gift was praised,
the skillful hand of the artist applaud
ed and the donation Of the giver ac-
cepted. The artist, that he might en-
nance the wonder of the spectators,
and promote himself yet further in
the favor of the Emperor, took the vial
out of the Caesars hand, and threw it
the most solid metal would have re-
ceiyed some damage or bruiSe thereby.
Caesar was not only amazed, but af-
frighted with the act; but the artist,
taking up the vial from the ground
(Which was not broken, but only
bruised together, as if the substance
of the glass had put on the temper Of
brass), drew out an instrument from
his bosom and beat it out to its former
figure. This done, he imagined that
he had conquered the world, as believ-
ing that he had merited an acquaint-
ance with Caesar and raised the admir-
alton of all the behOlderS; but it fell
out otherwise, for the Emperor in
quired if any other person besides him
self was privy to the like tempering of
glass. When he told him NO. he
commanded his attendants to strike off
his head, saying, Should this artifce
come once to be known, gold and silver
would be of as little value as the dirt
in the street. Long after this-viz.,
in 1860-we read that among other
rare presents then sent from the Sophy
of Persia to the King of Spain, were
six mirrors of malleable glass, so ex-
quisitely tempered that they could not
be broken.
