A CASE FOR THE COLD-WATER
CURE.
DOCTOR BULL. "Are you
subject to these attacks?"
CAPTAIN SEMMES. "No,
DOCTOR; this is the first of the kind. The fact is, heretofore I have been very
careful to avoid exposure to any thing which might produce the slightest
reaction."
DOCTOR BULL. "But, about
this affair; how did it come on?"
CAPTAIN SEMMES. "Well,
first I experienced a sort of Shooting in the Side, accompanied by Symptoms of
Collapse, ,followed by a General Sinking, and a kind of Swimming Sensation." .
DOCTOR BULL. " Yes,
yes—exactly! I think I had slight symptoms of the disorder myself some years
ago. It is known among the profession as Yankeephobia, for which Spirit of
Cave-in is frequently used: but in your case, I should recommend building up—a
little iron, and so forth. However, I will fix you up something which will make
a man of you in no time." -

A SWEET AND
PERFUMED BREATH.
What lady or gentleman would
remain under the curse of a disagreeable breath, when, by using the
BALM OF 1000 FLOWERS,
it would be cured? How many
lovers it has separated!!! How many friends forever parted! THE SUBJECT IS SO
DELICATE, your nearest friend will not mention it; and you are yourself ignorant
of the fact. To effect a radical cure, use the Balm as a tooth-wash night and
morning.
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
of ancient times used honey to
beautify their complexion; but the combination with palm-oil and other valuable
ingredients makes it still more valuable. For bathing suffering infants, a few
drops poured into a basin of water will dispel all fever, fetter, &c. A few
drops poured on your shaving-brush makes a beautiful soft lather, leaving the
face pure and white.
When used for washing night and
morning, it eradicates all Tan, Pimples, and Freckles, rendering the skin soft
and white, and free from blemish.
Price 75 Cents. For sale by all
