Who ia wrs, Winslow?

As this question is frequently. asked, we
will simply say that she is lady who, for
upward of forty years, has untiringly de-
voted her time and talent as female
physician and nurse, principally among
children. She has especially studied the
constitution and wants of this numerous
class, and, as a result of this effort, and
practical knowledge, obtained in lifetime
spent as nurse and physician, she has
compounded Soothing Syrup for children
teething. 1t operates like magic-giving
rest and health, and is moreover, sure to
regulate the bowels. In consequence OF
this article, Mrs Winslow is becoming
world-renowned as benefactor of her race;
children certainly do rise up and bless her;
especially is this the case in this city. Vast
quantities of the Soothing Syrup are daily
sold and used here. We think Mrs. Wins
low has immortalized her name by this in
valuable article, and we sincerely believe
thousands of children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use, and the mil,
lions vet unborn will share its benefits and
unite in calling her blessed. No mother has
discharged her duty to her, suffering little
one, in our opinion, until she has given 1t
the benefit of Mrs. WinslOw's Soothing
Syrup. Try it, mothers-try it nov;

which provides for the issue of 8 pei

pose he will be invited to come before the
committee next Thursday.
