different localities have been rendered
impassible by drifts, and nature wears j
a more wintry aspect at present than
heretofore.

until the time of his death. During his last
"mess, be mourned over his unfaithfulness
as a christian and an elder, though in his life
he wag as consistent as most who occupy such
positions. While he thus mourned, he nev
ertheiess expressed his confidence of salva
UCQ through his crucified and risen Lord.
*bom he regarded as all his salvation and all
is desire. He manifested great resignation

Dr, Velpau's French Pills.
Ladies, take Particular Notice.
THE REAL \ ELPAC FEMALE PILL.
[WARRANTED FRENCH ]
rpiIESE Fills, so celebrated many years
| ago in Paris fur the relief of female ir
! regularities, and afterward so notorious for
their criminal employment in the practice of
abortion, are now offered for sale for the first
time iu America. They have been kept in
comparative obscurity, from the fact that the
1 originator. Dr. Velpau, is a physician in Paris
of great weaith and strict conscientious prin
ciples, and has withheld them front general
use, lest they should be employed for unlaw
ful purposes, in overcoming Female Obstruc
tions, Falling of the Womb, Whites, Green
Sickness. Suppression, Retention or Immod
erate Flow of the Monthly Discharges, they
seem to be truly omnipotent, bursting open
the flood gates from whatever cause may have
stopped them ; but they are offered to the pub
i lie only for legitimate uses, and all agents are
forbidden to sell them when it is understood
i that the object is unlawful. Married ladies
should never take theru when there is any
reason to believe themselves pregnant, for they
will be sure to produce a miscarriage.
These pills are entirely safe under all cir
cumstances, being composed entirely of sub'
stanees from the vegetable kingdom.
1 Each box has the coat ut arms for the city
of Paris stamped on the box, with the words
"Trade Mark" in French, to counterfeit which
i is a misdemeanor, and all persons will be
| dealt with according to law.
' fggfFull directions accompany every box.
