WOMAN'S TRIUMPH.
A Severe Surgical Operation. 1t is Endured
without taking Ether. Subject, Mrs.
Edward Myers, of Rondout. N. Y.

From the correspondence of the Kingston N " Freeman
The case of Mrs Edward Myers of Rondout,
New York, furnishes an apt illustration OF woman
power of endurance. This lady had been treated
for months in the usual way for Erysipeas Of the
hand, without benefit Not until her hand had
become mass of purified flesh did she turn to
DR.. Kennedy, proprietor Of the " Favorite Rem
edy," for help
He at once informed her that it was impossible
to save the hand-t must be amputated She re-
ceived this terrible intelligence quietly, declined
to take ether, STIMULATING merely to hold her hus-
bands hand during the operation, and underwent
the painful process without moving muscle or
utteriug groan. Dr. Kennedy then gave Fa-
vorite Remedy" freely to cleanse the blood and
prevent the return of the disc~se, and Mrs. Myers
now lives and reioices in her great deliverance.
"Favorite Remedy" is fast becoming trusted
household friend in all cases of Female Weakness
and diseases OF the blood One dollar bottle

ASLEEP.


In summertime how fair II showed
My garden by the village road
Where fiery stalks Of blossoms glowed.
And roses softly blushed
With azure spires, and garlands white,
Pale heliotrope, the SUMS delight,
where,er the south wind ru.had,
There solemn purple panses stood,
Gay tulips red with floral blood,
And wild things fresh from field and wood.
Alive with dainty grace;
Deep heaven-b lne bells Of columbipe.
The darkly mystic passIon-yine.
And clematis, that loves to Irvine.
