This Sarsaparillais combination Of
vegetable alternatives - Stillingia, Man
drake, Yellow Dock - with the Iodides
of Potassium and Iron, and is the most
effcacious medicine vet known for
the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so skilfully COM
bined. that the full Alternative effect Of
each is assured, and while it is so mild
as to be harmless even to children, it is
still so effectual as to purge out from the
system those impurities and corruptions
which develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence which
prominent physicians all over the coun-
try repose in it, prove their experience
of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues nave
accumulated, and are constantly being
received, and as many of these cases are
publicly known, they furnish convincing
evidence Of the superiority of this Sar-
saparilla over every other Alternative
medicine. So generally is its superb
ority TO any other medicine known, that
we need de no more than to assure the
public that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

sand four hundred and fifty dollars. He
had agreed to pay his men dollar o
day each, and board them. There were
five hundred dollars. He had bought
two yokes of oxen, but those were cash
on hand, and worth one-third more on
this sixth day of April than they had
been when he bought. And then he
and Mary sat down to reckon up the
other expenses. John could show o
hundred dollars for keeping of teams in
the woods, and ..l
But what was the usep After every
possible thing was taken out, they
would have full fifteen hundred dollars
left. OF course the old oaks were gone,
but what blessed returnl
But there was another thing that en-
! tered into the sum of the cause Of his
gratitude. When he came to settle
| with his contractor he learned from him
4 that early in September last past, Mr..
Jonas Hapgood had made proposition
to him for furnishing five thousand ties;
and he had said that he expected to
thake them from piece of property
which would shortly come into his pos
session, and of the value of which no
was sure the then present owner was
not aware. F4
However, it can all be told in few
words more. Before striking into the
springs work on the farm, John went
down to Portland and bought up the
note and the mortgage on his farm, and
left five hundred dollars in the bank.
Uncle Daniel was at first unwilling to
believe. But he remembered the grand
old oaks; and remembered of having
heard old Peter talk of setting up q
camp out in those woods for making
barrel slaves; but he never did it. He
never had the spur to the effort--so he
never made it.
But John had the spur. Aye-and he
had the spirit-the willard the pluck!
And he had his reward. He sat in his
quiet home-a home of his own-a home
redeemed with his wife and child in
health and happiness-sat there indie
pendent-the only farmer in the town
whose personal check would be hon
ored at sight in the city bank!-N. Y.

Improved SchOol.BOOks.

First book in arithmetic. Primarily,
for the benefit of school-book publishers.
Secondarily, for the advancement Of
very small pupils. Enables the scholar
to count two and then stops. Must be
exchanged for Sharpshaver's second of
the arithmetical series.
Second book leads the infant pupil
onward in the hard and rigid paths of
mathematics by new and gentle pro-
cess invented by Sharpshayer himself.
Leads him deity to that point in mathe-
MATES where he can count ten, and there
leaves him awhile to rest until the third
of the series is produced.
The third of the series, through flow
I Ury -pdUfIo anu UOduUifu1 dv0fuco, Una
bles the scholar to add up a column of
ones and prepares the way for the null
duplication table.
The fourth book, through the i'm
proved process, watts the juvenile so
gently into the first principles of sub
traction that the infant learner does not
at all realize that he or she is dealing
with the hard, dry and abstruse science
of mathematics. With delightful i'm
agery and pleasant imagining it shows
him that if one be taken from one not
one remains, and the infant feels thor.
oughly prepared for whatever may fol-
low. Here the fourth book of the series
stops and it is necessary to buy the fifth.
The fifth book of the series grabs the
infant mind with firm and vigorous
hand and inducts it into the grandeur
and glory of the multiplication table.
BY the inventors process such key is
given to this door of the science of num-
bers that the youngest people march
boldly forward and carry the entire null
DUPLICATION by coup dc main. No extra
charge for French quotations.
The sixth of the, series unlocks the
mysteries of long and short division.
Division, through the new process, is
instilled gently into the child's mind
and robbed of many of its former hor-
rors. 1t is to the pupil pleasurable
operation. Not much is attempted at
once. The pupil is first well grounded
in the mathematical fact that two will
go into two but once, Entire chapters
are devoted to the laying of this founda-
ton. When the pupil is sure of this
mathematical fact he is ready to adj
vance into the number of times two will
90 into four. But if he is not sure he is
kept in twos into two until it is proved
to flim beyond the shadow of perad-
venture. e.rtoe.....
Thus ends this portion of the Juvenile
mathematical series. The next series,
| consisting of eleven books, is devoted
entirely to vulgar fractions.
4 BY the old and pernicious process Of
teaching mathematics the scholar was
required to buy but one book. The en-
tire subject was thus thrown at him in q
huge mass. The result, as may readily
\ be foreseen, was disastrous to the school
book publisher. A careful and clever
scholar might not only in time master
this book, but actually, lift were stoutly
bound, keep it for his children! What
encouragement is this for the school
book tradeP Where would be the wives
and families of such as derive subsist-
ence, profit and fortune through the
making and selling of school-books!-
