Hear Sir, About one year since I found myself In
a feeblo condition from general debility. Vrgetlne
was stronglv recommended to me by a friend who
bad heen much benefited by Its use. I procured the
article, and, after using several bottles, was restored
to health, and discontinued Us use. I feel quite
confident that thero Is no medicine superior to It
for those caiuplaints for widen it Is especially pre
pared, and would cbeei fully recommend It to those
who feel that they need something to rcstoie them
to perfect lunlth.

A1IUSING TIIK CHILDREN.
I1Y TIMOTHY TITCOMB.
Nothing can excite the Indignfttlon of
man of sensibility like the abuse of a child.
To see n delicate and helpless child in tho
hands of a brutal father or mother, receiv
ing stripes or bruises, administered without
reason or conscience, will bring on an attack
of Inward profanity in the most pious of us.
I witnessed au Instance of this in the sub
urbs, the other day. A big, burly laborer
took a dirty urchin across his knee, and
split n thick shlngle.on the fruit of his loins
as if he wero getting up kindling wood for
the next morning's fire, while the poor boy
yelled with anguish. I could have roasted
the brute on his own hearth, without turn
ing him, It is an outrageous abuse, alo to
terrify a child. Oh I the spooks and bugbears
which children of quick imaginations aro
sure tn see at night, in belated walks or in
lonely beds I Curses on the careless or cruel
men aud women who have filled their minds
with these horrible figments I
'Ah 1 that is one of the things I am very
particular nbout," exclaims the father or
mother who is leading this article. 'I never
punish,' says another : 'I never annpnl tn a
child's fears; and 'I permit no one to fill my
cnnu s Drains with horrible stories,' says a
third. 'Not one of these nice people who
read The Home Weelly would plead guilty

presume you love vour children tW in.
deed, you are foolishly fond of them ; aud
now l wish to tell you of a way in which
the kindest parents may abuse their child
ren, as really and as injuriously as the most
Inconsiderate or the most brutal.
I wish to speak particularly of the abuse
' little girls. A little girl is, or may be,
ought to be, tho sweetest creature on all
io round earth. She comes neHrpMt. In lipr
gentleness, and simplicity, her truthfulness,
her utter artlessncss, to the angels, of all
that is born of woman and bred in tliRwnrl,!
The more a woman can keep of her child-
uoous simplicity, truthfulness heartiness,
and ail the traits that character. her rh!M.
hood, the better will she be. A woman who
has reached her womanly estate, and re
mains as a child in all but strength and wis.
dom, is exactly that woman which the good
KingSobmon (a man of large experience
and remarkable opportunities for observa
tion) did not find 'in a thousand.'
How.tlicn.are our sweet little xrirla abused?
Let me tell you. Hut first let me say a few
words touching ceneral tirincioles. There
are proprieties of dress growing out of the
nature of these precious little prattlers that
an unsophi-ticated taste will always observe.
nere are women whom all ornament is en
irely inconsistent with their stvle. nf liennt.v
and character. A little rustic cottage among
tje trees cannot be Improvid by elaborate
ness of architectural adornment. Such orna
ment is inharmonious with the character of
the dwelling and the nature of its surround
ings. And so itis with a little girl. A lit
tle girl Is simple in her character ana sim
ple in her character and simple in her style of
beauty ; aud all elaborateness ot dress and
excess of personal adornment, when applied
to her, are utterly offensive and irredeema-
ny vulgar. Now will you walk out with
ne into the streets of any of our cities or
.irge towns on a sunny afternoon or on n
pleasant Sunday morninir. and take a look
at the passing juvenile toilets ? What a be
llowered, beribbuiied, befeathered, becurled,
begummed and bedazzlirg procesi-ion ot an
imated dolls in short frocks and tnsielled
bootstrincs do we behold ! It is amusim- tn
see tho amount of costly raiments that the
tond idolatry or foolish pride of parents has
piled upon these little persons. Plumes
that co their weight in greenbacks, flowers
that mimic the most coreeous work of June.
ribbons broad enough aud long enough to
make a waist for their little bodies, and
millinery fushiness euouiih for au ambitious
old dowager, load them down.
The abuse of these children conslsts main.
ly, in the sophistication of their plaHic
tastes, and the awakening in their young
natures of u loye of personal adornment. I
have seen a simple child, or one who was
once and nileht have remained a simnle
child, stand and 'prink' before a glass lost
in admiration of her nrettv th ncs : then po
. . - n-.- u
out upon the street, and bv every motion nf
her head show that the supreme subject of
tier thoughts was the load of dry goods she
was carrvine : and then Irf-trav bv I ier man
ners the terrible fact that the value that Bhe
set upon herself and upon all tho little girls
she met. was graduated bv the value nf the
apparel which she and they respectively
wore, il that child had not been the victim
of a gross parental abuse, more nermanent
in its injury than any that the laborer's
sningie could inlllct, then I am much mU.
taken. A love of finerr once fixed in Ihn
mind of a little elrl. she baa received an in.
jury which later good sense and a corrected
taste will never entirely erad eate. Vmm
the depth of my heart I pity a child who
cannot be so far a child as to forget her
clothes ; and I pity those misguided parents
whose unconscious cruelty has fastened upon
her an appetite which transforms her Into
vain little fool.

the using r A little girl in a white dress,
with a rose In her halr.'ls as pretty as a little
girl can be , and the more unconscious
she Is that she has even a rose upon her
head, tho more attractive is she to every pure
taste.
There Is, unfortunately, more than one
way in which the love of finery is bred In a
child. A little girl Is much In tho house,
and much In the society nf the ladles of the
house, whoever they may be. I beg leave
to Inquire of tho mothers of my little friends
what subject they are accustomed to hear
discussed most frequently, nnd with the
most intense personal interest. I was a boy
who loved most to be out of doors, and, lu
later years, I have spent more tlmo In the
library than In the parlor ; and I ask, there
fore, for Information. I think that at odd
times in my life I have heard allusions made
to dress among my lady acquaintance; and It
has been intimated to me by those who ought
to know, that there is no subject so absorb
ing and nf such constant interest in female
circles as that of personal adornment.
This may be a slander, but I am afraid
that it is not; and if not, how natural is it
that the child who witnesses this devotion to
dress in its mother, or Its adult acquaintan
ces, should grow up with the impression
that personal adornment is the great end of
life, How many a mother owes it to her
own vanity and vulgarity that her little one
teases her for trinkets nnd finery that she
can poorly afford, and would gladly dispense
with, but which she finds it hard in her
motneriy sympathy to deny her. How many
family circles are there which are little more
lan schools of personal vanity, where girls
i trained to a love or dress from the date
their first consciousness
between a rag and a ribbon. And this I de-
lare to be a terrible abuse, which leaves Its
lark upon the soul while life lasts,
I do not assert that p 1 1 fnniliie for ,1m..
children sprints from parental nlantlmr
and fostering, nr from home influence and
examphj. Children are thrown Into as
sociations with their neighbors, aid they
nice dlllerencesof dress.'and come quickly
learn amone their mates that dri-m Ima
much to do with the social .standing. They
cannot understand that overdress is vulgar;
so they beg for articles that will nlaen tiiAm
upon an equal footing with their mates, and
manya motner, against ber own best judg-
eni, yields to the urgent entreaty of her
ived ones, and gives them only what will
ily feed a base appetite that grows upon
s food. It is verv. verv hanl tn ilouw ihn
strong wish of a much-beloved child, but
there is always cruelty in eratirvinir it when
harm lies in the graification. Thus the cru-

boy is father of the man : and we ar train
ig up in America a race of women who
ill be a much more devoted tn rlre than
their mothers, as their mothers rxrel inihnir
love ot personal adornments to the women
of the last generation. The nation is pros
perous. Multitudes of men acquire sudden
wealth who know no wpy of giving expres

In expensive establishments and r.nttlvdreu.i
They do not Iayish their money upon them

anu these pile the dry goods and jewelry

s the way of declaring their nnaltlmi. nnd
advertising their vulgarity; but they have
an Influence upon the vounir and eauili- dl.
zled minds, and help to vitiate a taste al

thing into its vortex; and all chatity ol

and all consideration of the paramount in

Let me not be misunderstood. I love beau

What a nueer home it is ! It is nu th

'One night,' said Ren. Holladay, Moor
before tho Pacific railroad was built, I was
bouncing over the plains in ono or my over
land coaebes. My wife was with me. She
was sick and lay asleep on the bottom of tho
stage on a bed of buffalo skins. The night
was fearful dark, and a drizzling rain was
falling. .Mrs. Holladayand myself were thn
only passengers. Several stages had been
robbed within two months, and tho driver
was ripping along as though a gang of prai
rie wolves were after him. Suddenly thn
horses were thrown on their hunches, atnt
the stage slopped. I was heaved forward,
but quickly recovered and found myself ga
zing at the muzzles ot a double-barreled
shot gun. llytho dim light of the stage)

was afraid that my sick wife micht awakn

'I passed out tho few hundreds lnnia in
my pockets, nnd handed him my gold watck
and chain. They were hefty. I think tho
chain alone would weigh five pounds at
least.
'There,' said I, 'there's every cent I'vocrot.
Take it, and let me go on. My wife is very
sick, and I don't know what would happen
to her if she knew what was going on.'

the express company's box ; but the double

life I did not dare to stir. My nose began
