EIEGANT DaEssRs AT NEwp0Rr. II From
the Providence Journal. J--At the enter
tainment given last night by the Hon.
George and Mrs. Bancroft Ia honor OF Mrs.
President Hayes. the dresses Of the ladies'
were elegant in the extreme, but there was
nome which attracted so much deserved
attention as that worn by Mrs. Heap, wife
OF Captain David Porter Heap, OF the
United States engineer corps. IL was made
OF heavy white silk, and ornamented with
painting by hand. Around the dress were
several bands Of a delicate hue on which
were painted roses budding in full bloom,
besides most exquisite little birds. The
colors blended most beautifully, the whole
making a charming, and, ut the same time,
very rare picture. The painting itself was
the work Of the lady's husband, Captain
Heap, who is quite an artist, and it occu-
pied three days OF his time.

yEGETINE.
VEGET1NE.

Into its composition the medicinal virtues OF 4
dozen or more carefully selected banks, roots, ana
herbs enter and all of these juices Al so strongly
concentrated. and in state OF such perfect harmo-
ny and solution that their combined action Is always
uniform palatabc, and pleasant to the most delicate
and refined taste. 1t should be said, aso that VEGE-
TINE contains no mineral of any sort, and no opium,
morphine. nor anything else of baneful narcotic
nature. Whatever power for good 1t possesses II
owes to the beneflcent vegetable products which the
Almighty has seen ft to place in our native WOODS
and pastures. and whcllar extracted and made lar-
,nonious by human agency and skill There IS not
80 much Us all atom of poison in the whole com
pound; nevertheless it possesses the speedy anu
penetrating action OF the most virulent poison
for injury, but always and eternaily for good
VEGETINE works in all directions, and still IL is not
claim cd of 1t that Ii "cure-all" Far from It X
will cure however all diseases; and there are many
which proceed from nearly one aud the same cause.
You have doubtless seen many kinds OF fruit grow
Ing ON the same tree; but common sense told you
that this was the result of various grafn2s, and you
did not marvel because there was only oln root to
the whole. By destroying the root you could have
dcstroycd all Its products. It matters not whether
this be of one or cngrafed in many forms. Toaccom-
plsh so direct result 1t must necessarily possess
more than single mode of action and such Is lie
case. We may say, then, that
vEGETINE ACTS IN FOUR WAYS.
