GorNo INTO THE WIG DI:SINT:SS.—
A Western editor requests his subscribers
who owe him more than six years sub
scriptions, to send him a lock of their
hair, so that-he may know that they arc
still living. In answer to which a con
temporary says that if his delinquent
subscribers would do thus, he would be
obliged to leave off editing and go into
the wig business.
POLITENESS--The basis of all true
politeness is kindness. All politeness
should be real, and from the heart. if
you constantly strive to reason away your
prejudices against people, you will become
polite. Most of our dislikes have very
little foundation. A large proportion of
'them spring from idle gossip, from fan.
pled slights, or from trials of our temper
iiratie,h we could very easily forgive, were
it really our interest to do so. •
But it is always our interest to keep on
the best terms with every one who is not
really bad or disreputable. To do this
one must niainta.in an unsoasing watch
over his or her temper, and suffer no op
iortunity to escape, however trifling. of
gratifying others. If kindness of heart
be the first requisite in politeness, it is
quite as true that ussiditity is not less
needed.
SLEEP.-It is a delicious moment cer
tainly, that of being well nestled in bed,
and feekiiig that you shall drop gently to
sleep. The good is to come—not past ;
the limbs have just been tired enough to
r.:nder the remaining in one posture de
lightful ; the labor of the day is done,—
A gentle failure of the perceptions comes
creeping over one; the spirit of conscious
ness disengages itself more and more with
slow and hushing degrees, like a mother
detaching her hand from her sleeping
child; the mind seems to have a balmy
lid_ closing over it, like the eye; 'tis
closing—'tis closed. The mys
terious spirit has wee, to take its airy
zbatuds.
ROOM Foe Ara...—Though the world
is wide enough for every one to take a
little, and there appears no reason why
we should jostle and make one another
unhappy as. we pass along, yet so it is we
arc continually thwartin; and crossing
each other at right anglos;
S and some lose
all memory of tho temper that governed
when first setting out.
A PARROT CALLED AS A WITNESS..---
A. man lost a favorite parrot, which was
discovered in the poseession of another
person, who refused to give it up. He
was accordingly summoned to produce the
bird in a court of law. The real owner,
on being asked how he could prove that
it belonged to him, replied that the par
rot should be his only witness. It was
then brought into court in ticage cover
ed with cloth, and began to whistle the
tune, "Take your time, Miss Lucy," while
some subject was discussed by the court.
Its owner then put hie face to the cage,
end desired the parrot to kiss him, which
the bird did
,most affectionately. "Ho
.will do the same to any one," said the
defendant, and, on patting his mouth to
the cage, the parrot seised his lip and bit
-it severely, to the great amusement of the
,court. Its owner then took it out of the
rage and kept it on his hand, when the
bird answered several questions put to it
in a ready and extraordinary manner, and
also showed so much affection for its mus
ter that the judge iteraidiately ordered
the kairiot restored to Witted the de

BE PERMANENTLY C URED I
THE great superiority of Dr. Ilarkley's
popular and ivell tried familymedicines is
traced to the fact thitt they search out and
eradicate the cause of disease, and hence
never fail to effect a permanent cure. They
not only restore.tone to the digestive or

stomach, liver and bore ~'but they thor

On :the 27th of January, 1860, Mr. D. S.
Moore, of Grampian Hills, Clearfield co.,
wrote that ho was induced by the
numerous testimonials he had seen of the
cures effected by Dr. 3larkley's medicines,
to apply in behalf of a sister, whose case
he thus described:
* "For -the last six years she
has been suffering from Scrofula and
-White Swelling.
.In 1854 she suffered se
vere pain in one of her legs, attended with
swelling, which extended from the knee to
the hip. In about two months it broke out
and discharged, and has continued to do
so until the present time. On one occasion
a piece of lemo three inches in length, and
at another time one of a smaller size, came
out. tier knee has been. stiff for three
years, and at times the pain is very se

DYSPEPSIA CURED
Certificate of Mr. Abner 1) Campbell, of
the firm of Campbell Marshall, boot and
shoe dealers, Centre Square, Lancaster:
LANCASTER Pa.. March 4, 1863.
Dn. G. 11. Alainctxv—bear Sir: It af
fords me much pleasure to have an oppor
tunity to add any testimony in Ibrur of
your popular family medicines, especially
as my knowledge of their efficacy is based
upon personal experience in my own case
and observation of my neighbors. For
many years I was the victim of Dyspepsia
in its most aggravated form ; my system
having become so deranged and debili
tated, that I was nimble to perform any
kind of labor, I had resorted to the best
doctors within reach, without relief. 1
used some of the most popular remedies of
the day, recommended for that disease, but
none of thorn did eve any good. My suf
fering can be understood by any one suf
fering from the same disease, but they
could. not be described in words. I was
then living at Hopewell, Chester county,
and in 1857, as a last resort, I commenced
the use of your medicines. They soon af
forded me relief from the most painful
symptoms, which I had scarcely hoped to
obtain ; and in a surpassingly short time I
was completely restored to health, and 1
have enjoyed the best of health ever since
—not a symptom of my old complaint re
maining. Since then 1 have always kept
your medicines in my family, and would
not be without them upon any consid
eration, as they have never failed to do
what you claim for thent.
While still living at opewell. I became
:lama ihr your lather, HMI sold a large
quantity of the modieine thr him, rind all
who used them were loud in their praise.
A child of Mr. Pick-ring, or Hopewell,
was ;Afflicted NViCht 0111111: in the

This ease is one of thansands which
might be tiublisbed. All who 'value their
health and life, should use these standard
remedies, and their cure will be complete
