Card 70 the Public.

For many years we have made two
medicines suited to the ailments of a vast
class OF sufferers. Thousands of cures
have been made by them, and, in fact,
the word failure could not be coupled
with them. But within the last two
years counterfeits of our medicines have
sprung up, dangerous in their close imi-
tation of our Trade Mark. To secure the
people we have placed upon each genu-
inc box of Holloway's Ointment the fac
smile of the signature OF our agent, Mr..
Jos. HaydOck. To counterfeit is felony.
We shall relentlessly pursue any one who
initiates this with the utmost vigor Of
the law. We most earnestly beg that the
great mass of American people will aid
us in our efforts to protect their health.
and help us i'm our task OF bringing these
most unprincipled men to the bar of JUS
tice. Uniformly refuse to purchase
Medicines purporting to be ours unless
Mr.. JOS. Haydock's signature is attached
to each box of Pills or pot of Ointment,
and the end will soon be reached.
The publics obedient servants,

He then pronounced the benediction /;
but Onl, David Notworth left the house.
What was done in that meeting can be
judged of by the results. That very
night doctor came TO the widows cot,
and with him came a nurse who was TO
remain. On the next day large sum of
money. and many articles of comfort,
we've sent in. Ere long Paul was taken
into the family of wealthy mechanic rs
an adopted son and ere the SHOWS of
winter were gone the widowed mother
was well again. and was gladly taken into
the same family with her son, where she
passed the happirst hours OF her woman's
life.
1t is simple story, but where will you
find Drawer boy than was Paul Lavere !?
Think you he was brave when lie faced
those two strong men for his mothers
protection? So he was. But that re-
required not mOiety of the STERN, calm
herOism. which sent him. a pale, feeble
boy. into that sacred temple, there TO
face the multitude, and, i'm defiance of all
precedent, TO pour out the story of his
mothers sufferings. But his soul was
strong with filial love, and he conquer
ed. People honored him for this strange
independence. and as he grew up a noble
steady, virtuous youth and man, he was
respected by all who knew him. Yet the
smile and the loving embrace Of his
mother, with her fearful blessing upon
him, were by far the dearest return he
met for his work,
Of MIR. Notworth we will only say he

spendthrift son quickly squandeie / his
