—ln speaking of the various impo
sitions and frauds practiced upon
farmers by the many city sharpers
"who go about seeking whom they
may devour" the Bellefonte DailyNewst
gives the following bit of advice which
is worthy of consideration :
While every stranger traveling a
mong ilie farmers should be treated
civilly, as many of them are on honest
business, the farmer should be very
guarded iu bis dealings with all. Do
not believe all of what they have to
sav in regard to any goods they may be
selling, and if they happen to be acting
for firms at a great distance, do not
purchase of them, as there are certain
ly firms in the town nearest you who
are known to be reliable and will give
you the very best bargain the market
can aff rd. Do not, under any circum
stances, sign your name, even if it be
on tire most innocent-looking paper,
for it will be certain to change itself
into a promise to pay before many
days. Do not allow any man to take
advantage of you. This you owe as
much to them as to yourself, especially
if your daily petition is, "Lead us not
into temptation "

LIVER REGULATOR
♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
For all Diseases of the
liver, Kidneys, Stomach and Spleen.
Thi purely vegetable pre
paration, now so celebrated as a
F-mily Medicine, originated in
the South in 182 ft. It acta
gently on the Rovtrvls and
Kltlnevn and correct* the
action of the Liver, and is, there
fore, the beat preparatory
medicine, whatever the aick
ncn may prove to- be. In alt
common diseases it will, tan*
aalHted by any other medi
cine, effect u speedy care.
The Regulator is sale to administer in any
condition of the system, and under no circoas-
Htancea can it do hurui. It will Invigorate
like a glass of wine, but is .to intoxicating bever
age to lead to intemperance; will promote dl
geMtlon, dissipate headache, and gener
ally tone up the system. The dose is small,
not unpleaaant, and its virtues undoubted.
No loao of time, no inter
ruption or stoppage of
business while talking the
Regulator.
Children complaining of
Colic, Headache, or Sick
Stomach, a teaspoonful or
more will give relief.
If taken occasionally by pa
tients exposed to MALARIA,
w iU cxp-. l the poison and protect
them front attack.
A I'IIVUCIA!f opinion.
I have been practicing medicine for twenty yearn,
ani liavc never been able to put up a vegetable
compound that would, like Simmons Liver Regu
lator, promptly and effectively move the Liver to
action, and at the same time aid (instead of weak
ening i the digestive ami assimilative powers of the
system. L M HINTON, M. D..Washington, Aik.
