fect and most speedy cure. Secret diseases are the great-
est enemies to health, as they are the first cause of con-
sumption, Scrofula and many diseases, and should be a
terror to the human family, as a permanent cure is sel-
dom ever effected, a majority of the’cases falling into the
hands of incompetent persons, who not only fail to cure
the diseases but'ruin the constitution, filling the system
with mercury, which with the disease, hastens the suff-
erer to rapid consumption.
But should the disease and the treatment not cause
Meath speedily and the victim marries, the disease is en-

and consigning them to an early grave.
SELF ABUSE, is another formidable enemy to health,
for nothing else in the dread catalogue, of human diseases
causes so destructive a drain upon the human system
Is of victims through a few years of
„ untimely grave. It destroys the
Nervous system, rapidly wastes away the energies of
life, causes mental derangement, prevents a proper de-
velopment of the system, disqualifies for marriage, soci-
ety, business and all earthly happiness, and leaves the
sufferer wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to con-
sumption and a train of evils more to be dreaded than
death itself. With the fullest confidence I assure the
unfortunate victim of self-abuse that a- permanent and
speedy cure, can be effected, and with the abandonment

bust’vigorous health. Y
The afflicted are cautioned-against the use of Patent
Medicines, for there are so many ingenious snares in
the columns of the public prints to catch and rob the
unwary sufferers, that millions have their constitutions
ruined by the vile compounds of quack doctors, or the
equally poisonous nostrums vended as “Patent Medi-
cines.” I have carefully analyzed many of the so-called
Patent Medicines and find that nearly all of them con-
tain Corrosive sublimate, which is one of the strongest
preparations of mercury, and a deadly poison, which, in-
stead of curing the disease, disables the system for life.
Thre-fourths of the patent nostrums now in use are
put up bvunprincipled arid ignorant persons who do not
even understand the alphabet of the materia medica,
and are equally as destitute of any. knowledge of the hu-
man system, having only one object in view, and that

■4‘The Horace Waters’ Pianos are known as
among the very best. We are enabled to speak
of these instruments with some degree of confi-
dence, from personal knowledge of their excel-
lent tone and durable quality.—N. Y. Evangelist.
Says “The Christian Intelligencer: ” The
Horace Waters Pianos, for elegance of construc-
tion, superior depth and sweetness of tone, were
pronounced by competent judges at the Crystal
Palace, to be in all respects master-pieces of
mechanical skill. Having inspected a ,arge
nnmber of the Horace Waters’ Pianos, we can
be£me £c«".Ln;£ °f thei[ tn°',ledge
• as being of the very best quality.”
Nothing at the State Fair displayed greater

. . . ... n . ---------Forte manufactured bv Horace Waters, oi this
city.—Churchman
The following is taken from the “Christian In-
quirer:” “lhe finest among the many pianos at
the Crystal Palace are those placed there by
Horace Waters, whose instruments are always
popular.”
The following we take from the “Christian
Advocate” (Memphis Tenn.:) “The Horace
Waters’ Pianos are built of '.he best and most
seasoned material. From all we can learn of
the estaolishment—said to be the largest in the
United States—we 1__..— _
can do as well, perhaps better at this than at
any other house in trie Union.”
“Mr. Walers has been long established and is
favorably known. We speak from experience
when we assure our readers that his prices are
below those usually charged for articles in his
line.—Jacksonian N. J.
“I take great pleasure in pronouncing them
instruments of a superior quality, both in lone
and touch.”—August Gockel.

Cass Co. Tribune, Mich “It is attended here with
great success.”
Boston Transcript “We concur in the views of the
Traveler that these editorial verdicts, under the circum-
stances, are entitled to more than usual consideration.”
While many nostrum-makers victimize the good
natured pill-ridden public, by ordering “from six to'a
dozen boxes or bottles, to cure any malady,” the discov-
erer is happy in being able to state, that the severest
forms of recent inflammatory disease, are overcome by
one Acute package, and the most obstinate and long-
standing cases, by one Chronfc package. It does just
what it claims to do—no more, no less—equalizes the
fluids, by removing from the system all arterial and ven
ous obstructions.

the Railway train is to travelling on foot, so
is sewing with Singer’s Machines compared
with hand sewing. No tailor, shoemaker, dress-
maker, carriage trimmer, saddler, hatter, &c.,
should be without one. The fair profit of using R.P by the disease
one of these machines regular!)’ employed is
One Thousand Dollars a Year.
Jn all private families where there is much
sewing to be done, these machines! are an in
valuable assistance. Planters and hotel-keepers
find them particularly convenient and profitable.
These machines are simple in their construc-
i on-
ly kind of Sewing Machine ever made, by
I whtq, every sort of work, coarse or .fine, could

SO in dispensable to the'restoration of health. To be able!
to state confidently that Consumption is curable by in,|

as much under the control of medical treatment as anv ■

in the second ; but in the third stage it is impossible to I
save more than five per cent, for the Lungs are so cut I
..r i as to bid defiance to medical skill. I
Even, however, in the last stages, Inhalation affords ex- I
traordinary relief to the suffering attending this fearful I
scourge, which annually destroys ninety-five thowind I
persons in the United States alone ; and a correct cab I
culation shows that of the present population of the I
earth, eighty millions are destined to fill the Consump-. I

Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so fatal aa I
Consumption. In all ages it has been the great enemy I

An Editor Tight.—We believe it is rare
that editors indulge in a drop, but when
they do their readers are sure
out. A Syracuse cotemporary was called
upon to record a “melancholly event” at a
time when his head was rather heavy, and
did it up after the following manner: “Yes-
terday morning, at 4 o’clock P. M., a man
with a heel in the hole of his stocking, com
mitted arsenic by swallowing a dose of su-
icide. The inquest of the verdict returned a
jury that the deceased came to the facts in
^cordance with his death. He leaves a

we have seen; yet even in these prime respects,
Waters’ pianos and melodeons challenge com-
parison with the finest made anywhere in the
country.—Home Journal.
C, L. Sholes editor of the Kenosha “Tribune
and Telegraph” says, “The piano was received
in good order, and is pronounced an excellent
instrument by good judges, lhe tone of it is par-
ticularly commended as is indeed its external
workmanship and finish, compared with its cost.”
Speaking of the Horace Waters Pianos and
Melodeons at the Crystal Palace the “N.Y. Des-
patch” says : “A number of these pianos and
pedal bass and organ melodeons, from their
great power, and fullness and richness of tone
attract the very general attention and commen-
dation of visitors Waters “New scale” is recog-
nized by artists as not only a sensible but im-
portant improvement in pianos.
The “New York Express” r>ays : “The Hor-
ace Waters Pianos are pronounced 5y musical
amateurs as a decidedly superior article in all
the requisites of this instrument, and it is fast su-
perceding those of other manufacturers.”
. “The New York Evening Post” says: “The
Horace Waters Pianos are excellent as well as
cheap ; but he has those of other makers, as well
as second hand ones, capitally adapted to limi-
ted means.”
Says the “Knoxville (Tenn.) Standard “Mr.
Waters has long experience in the business, and
has gained a reputation unsurpassed jot selling
the best instruments in tne country.” h
“The Sunny South” reaches us wifflthe fol-
lowing: “This gentleman is one of the most ex-
tensive music dealers in the Union. His pianos
and melodeons have obtained great celebrity for
their excellent tone and durable quality.” .

There’s joy for my bosom no more.
The roses that crowned me are blighted,
The garland I cherished is dead—
-The faith once confidingly plighted,
I Is broken, my loved one is fled.
They saw that my life was decaying,
They knew that my stay would be brief,
But still, though, my spirit was straying,
I I told not a word of my grief.
No whisper reveal’d my deceiver,

But my heart, still adored its bereaver
And long’d but to meet him again.

Gentlemen can engage, and with perfect ease make a
very handsome income. Several Ladies in various parts
of Illinois and Missouri, whom I have instructed in the
art, are now clearing from $5 to $12 per day. It is a

J[ has been in operation in Texas. The Com-
pany that manufactures these Gins, is now per-
