Disease is an effect not cause. It's origin is
within; its manifestations without. Hence, to
cure the disease the cause must be removed and in
no other way can cure ever be effected WAR.
NER'S SAFE KIDNEY AND LIVER CURE is es-
tablished on just this principle It realizes that
IS PER CENT.
Of all diseases arise from deranged kidneys and
liver and 1t strikes at at the root of the diff
foulty. The elements Of which it is composed act
directly upon these great organs, both as a food
and restorer and, by placing them in healthy
condition, drive disease and pain from the system
For the innumerable troubles caused BY un.
healty Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs; for
the distressing Disorders of Women for Malaria,
and for physical arrangements generally, this
great remedy has no equal. Beware of imposters,
limitations and connections said to be just as good

Fragrance of Flowers.

Leigh Hunt has the followin< genial passage touching the perfume ss flow CTS "Oh, world of mystery that every where hangs about us and within us Who can, even in imagination, pene trate to the depths of the commonest oi the phenomena of our daily life? Take, for instance, one of these pots of narcisse. We have ourselves had plant of the variety known as Soliet dor, in flower, in sitting-room for six weeks, during the depth of winter, giving forth the whole of that time without (so far as we know) ceasing, even during sleep (for we need hardly tell our readers that plants do sleepy, the same full stream of fragrance. Love itself does not seem to preserve more absolutely its wealth, while most hberally dispensing it! That fragrance has material basis. though we cannot detect 1t by our finest tests. What millions of millions of millions of atoms must go to the forma- ton of even single gust, as it were, of this divine flower r-breath Yet this goes on through seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, and ceases only with the health of the poor flower petals. Where, then, in these petals, these thin, unsub- stantial cream-fakes, may we look to find stored up all these inexhaustible supplies? Where, indeed? !? and if they are not stored up, but newly created as given forth, Is not that even more won- derful? Would that any one could show us the nature and modes of opera ton of such miraculous chemistry"

In American Virtue.

Mir. Bright, on the authority of the London correspondent of one of the Paris papers, is reported to have said chat alone among mankind the Ameri-
 ans are in the habit of signing their names legibly. Surely the stoutest Tory Squire will no longer wonder at dr. Bright's love for the Yankees. To ,gn ene's name legibly is certainly, liter the various theological. moral and ;omestic virtues, an incomparable merit. When man who through life has :igned his name legibly dies. the fact Jught to be recorded or his tombstone. We should write : "He was good
 'hristian Gather, hzsband, brothef or son, as the case may bel, and he signed :,is name legibly." Of how many could this be said truthfully ?-Loadon Truth.
