Habitual constipation is not only one by
the most unpleasant, but at the same time
one the most injurious conditions of the
human system, and is but forerunner Of
disease, unless removed. This is usually
accomplished by the use of purgatives
which for TIE time afford relief but after
their immediate effects have passed they
leave t1e system in a worse state than be-
fore. To effect a cure it is necessary that
the remedy used should be one that not
only by its cathartic effect relieves the bow
els but at the same time acts as a tonic, so
as TO restore the organs to a sound, healthy
condition. This "Prickly Ash Bitters" will
do. 1t removes the cause and restores
health

Rev. Svlvanus Cobb thus writes in the
Boston Christian Freeman:-We would by
no means mmend anv kind ofmedicine
which we did not know to be good-partic-
uary for infants. But of Mrs. Wirslow's
Soothing Syrup we can speak from knowl-
blessing indeed. by giving an infant

parents can appreciate these blessings.
Here is an article which works to perfection,
an which is harmless; for the sleep which
it affords the infant is perfectly natural,
and the little cherub awakes as bright as
a BUTTON" And during the process of
teething, its value is incalculabe. We have
frequently heard mothers say that they
