ScnEScK's SEA WEED ToSIc.-In the atmosphere
experienced here during the summer msnths. the
lethargy produced by the heat takes away the desire
for wholesome food. and frequent preparations re-
duce bodily energy, particularly those suffering from
the effects Of dsbilitatiag diseases. In order to keep
a natural healthful activity of the system. we must
resort to artificial means. For this purpose schenck's
Sea Weed Tonic is very e~hectual. A few doses will
create an appetite and give fresh vigor 10 the
enervatcd body. For dyspepsia. it is invaluable.
Many eminent physicians have doubted whether
dyspepsia can be permanently cured by the drugs
which arc generally employed for that purpose. The
Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally different from
such drugs. 1t contains no corrosive minerals or
acids; in fact it assists the regular operations of ma
turo, and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in its
nature so much resembles the gastric juice that tbs
mostidentica with that fluid. The gastric Juice
is the natural solvent which, in a healthy condition
Of the body causes the foo to b. disested and when
this juice is not excreted in sufficient quantities, in
digestion. with all its distressing symptoms, fol-
lows. The Sea Weed Tonic performs the duty OF the
gastric Juice when the latter is deficient. schenck'i
Sea Weed Tonic sold by ali Druggists.

BRIeHAM YOUNG is the father Of sixtv-

BRIGHAM YOUNG is the father of sixty
three children, forty-fve of whom are
living. More than half of these are
females, and, with but two or three ex-
captions, all are blondes, and none what
may be called beautiful. The last child
born unto Brigham is a little girl, about
six years old, daughter of Amelia Van
Colt, Brigham's fourteenth wife. She is
a woman about forty, rather pretty, and
the next favorite to Amelia Folsom, his
eighteenth wife. No. Is is credited with
having a high-grade temper, and it is
said that she treats Brigham as if she were
his mother-in-law instead of his wife.
Mormons charitably say that he is con-
trolled by her because he loves her, but
a man with SO many wives can not love
either very much. Love and polggamy
are strangers.

WHENEVER you are in doubt which of
two things to do, let your decision be
for that which is right. Do not waiver,
do not parley; but square up to the
right thing. eBoyl when you divide that
apple with your sister, be careful not to
keep the largest half yourself. Young
mani don't sneak out of the basement
door because you want to escape from
your fathers eye. Madam ! let not the
most trifing deceit pass current in those
little acts which make the sum of your
life. No matter who you are, what your
lot, or where you live, you can not af-
ford to do that which is wrong.

which shan Take.

This is often a serious question with the
invalid. He finds the market flooded with
proprietary medicines, scores of which are
recommended as certain cures for his pecu-
liar ailment. BE reads the papers, circulars,
and almanacs, and finds each sustained by
plausible arguments, setting forth its virtues
and specific action. The recommendations
are as strong for one as for another. The
cures claimed to have been wrought by one
are as wonderful as those claimed to have
been wrought by another. In his p~erplexity
and doubt, the sufferer is sometimes led to re-
ject ali. BUTT should be borne in mind that
this condition Of things is one that can not be
remedied. In a land where all are free, the
good-the truly yaluable-must come into
competition with the vile and worthless, and
must be brought to public notice through
the same instrumentality, which is ddpertis-
ing. In such a case, perhaps the only abso-
lutte proof that a remedy is what it claims to
be, is to try it. The "test of the puddingi is
the eating Of it" "Prove all things, hold
fast that which is good" is the apostolic
Injunction. There may, however, be stronger
presumptive evidence in favor of one
remedy than there is in favor of another,
and this should be allowed its due weight.
A due regard to this may save a vast amount
Of experimenting, and a useless outlay of
money. AS presumptiye evidence in favor
| of DR.. Pierce's Family Medicines, the pro-
| prietor desires to say that they are prepared
| by a new and scientific process, by which the
| virtues of the crude plants and roots are ex-
tracted without the use of a particle of alco-
hol. Not a particle Of this destroyer Of our
race enters into the composition of either
his Golden Medical Discovery or Fayorite
Prescription. This consideration alone
ought certainly to rank them high above the
vile compounds saturated with alcohol.
Jamaica rum, sour beer, or vinegar, which
are everywhere offered for sale. Again,
they are of uniform strength, and their vir.
tues can never be impaired by age. They
are also made of fresh herbs and roots, gath
cred in their appropriate season, when they
are flush with medicinal properties. In sup
port of these claims, the following testimony
is offered:
NEWARK, NJ J.
B. v. PIERCE, NJ. D.:
Dear SRI have sold a great deal of your
excellent remedies, and / prefer to sell them
before others, because they give good salts
faction to those who use them. l hear such
remarks as aSage's Remedy completely
cured me; it is a splendid thing" or
"Pierce's Discovery is just what l wanted
1 feel better than 1 ever did" One of oul
celebrated singers uses it for Strengthening
her voice, and says =" there is nothing equali
it," and so l might give scores of remarks
said about your preparations. A colored
woman was using your Discovery, and aftel
taking three bottles was completely cured
She, being in the store, said to me, :" dom
want no doctors round me SO long as ! car
get the Discovery; it beats all your DOCTORS
And SO l might go on.
1 am, most respectfully, yours,
ATHA B. CROOKS.
