SCRIPTURAL PCZZLE.
God made Adam out of >ia.*t,
But thought it best to make me first;
feo I was mri i Bio fore tlie man
Ac-.-' rdinjt to God's hoi* plan.
My body ho did u.ake complete,
But without leas or arms or feet, .
My way and actions- did control.
And 1 was made a liv.Dg soul,
A living creature I became
And Adam gave to me a name.
Then from Tiis presence I withdrew
Nor more of Adam ever knew,
j did mv Maker always obey.
From ffim f never went atiav,
Tiiousands of miles I run in fear.
But seldom *>n the earth appear.
But God in in- di d comethini see
And put a 'ivinu soul in rne:
A son in rne the Lord did claim
And took from me that soul ajrain.
And when from rne that eoul war fied
I was the earn • as when firt rnaile,
Aud without nand-, < r feet, or sou!,
I travel now from pule so pole.
1 labor hard boti, lay anu night,
To fallen men I give" great light.
Thou-aa is of People, vounu and old,
Do r.y my datli great light behold.
No fear of death doth trouble me,
N'ur happiness I can not see;
1 o he.iv.-n above 1 may not go.
Nor to the grave nor hell below.
The scriptures I cannot believe—
If right or wrong i cn't conceive.
Although my name therein is found,
They are to rne an empty sound.
And when my friends these lines you read,
Go search the rcriptuies with all speed,
And if my name you can t find there,
I: w;il be strange I mils! deelare.

RECIPES.
Filling Ice house* with Snow. —As the
time is now approaching when the supply
of iee for the ensuing year is to be secured,
1 beg leave to give you the experience of
one of our 'Clifton Farmer's Club,'of Clif
ton, Ohio! llis ice-house is situated on
the side ola gravel hill, covering a pit 10
feet deed and 12 feet square, and is a sim
ple frame structure over the pit about 4 or
5 feet in height; the sides of the pit are
boarded up, and the drainage is through
the gravel.
Finding it expensive to haul ice from
the neighboring ponds aud rivers, he last
winter tilled his house with snow, after the
custom prevailing in Switzerland and Cali
fornia, (for my friend is a traveler,) simply
rolling it up in masses, and with a wheel
barrow conveying it to the house —first
lining the sides or the pit with straw, and
after it was filled covering the snow with
the same material, thus filling his house
without cost, and securing an abundant
supply of good ice for his large lamily
during the whole summer. The snow set
tled down into a compact mass, when the
spriDg and summer heats affected it, and a
portion still remains at the bottom of the
pit as solid as a glacier of the Alps Jer-
Irum Sup, in Country Gentleman.
Indelible Ink. —Dissolve two drachms of
lunar caustic and one half ounce gum
arabic in one gill of water.
Inflammatory Rheumatism. —A sure
remedy. Take one ounce of pulverized
saltpetre, and put it into a pint of sweet
oil. Bathe the parts affected, and a sound
cure will speedily be made. Tested,
Botts, Murrain and Rot —For young
cattle and horses. Mix occasionally 1 part
of salt, 4 parts of wood ashes. It promotes
appetite and health. Good against both
murrain and rot.

To Curl llair. —Rub it with the beaten ;
yelk of an egg, then wash off with clean
water, and put ou a little pomatum.
Bites of Poisonous Animals. —lndigo, 4
drachms; gum camphor, 8 drachms; alco
hol, 8 ounce?; mixed and kept in close bot
tles. Apply to the wound, and the cure
is soon completed.

' From Mr*. Jan* K. Itire. a tcell known and much
eUcmed lady of DcnnisriUe, Cape May C 0., .V. J.
" My daughter has suffered for a year past with a
scrofulous eruption, which was very troublesome.
Nothing afforot-d any relief until we tried your
SAHSAI'AUILLA, which soon completely cured her."
i From Charles I*. Gnge, Esq, of the iridely-kn-.irn
, Gage, Murray f Co., tn-Inufacturers of enamelled
' pop' rs in Xa'shua, X. 11.
" 1 had for several years a very troublesome
humor in my face, which grew constantly worse
until it di-figured my features and became an intol
! erahle affliction. 1 tried almost every thing a man
could of both advice and medicine, but without any
relief whatever, until I took your Sap.-apalilla.
It immediately made my face worse, as you tol l rne I
it might for a time; but in a few weeks the new
skin "began to form under the blotches, and con
tinued until my face i as smooth as any body's,
and I am without any symptoms of the disease that
1 know of. I enjoy perfect health, and without a
| doubt owe it to your Sarsapap.illa."
Erysipelas —General Debility Purify the

From Dr. Bolt. Sascin, 11/uston St., Xnc York.
'• I)R. ay:: P.. I seldom fail to remove Eruptions
and Scrofulous Sore* by the persevering use of your
Sars aparili.a, and I have just now cured an attack
of Malignant Erysipelas with it. No alterative we
possess equals the Sabsapakilla you have sup- j
plied to the profession as well as to the people." i
From J. E. Johnston, Esq., Irak 'man. Ohio.
" For twelve years, I hail the yellow Erysipelas ;
on my right arm, during which time I tried all the [
celebrated physicians I could reach, and took hun
dreds of dollars worth of medicines. The ulcers i
were so bad that the cords became visible, and tiie !
doctors decided that iny arm must be amputated. I j
began taking your Sabsapakilla. Took two bot- I
ties, and some of your PILIS. Together they have i
j cured me. lam now as weli and sound as any body, j
Being in a public place, my case is known to every j
body in this community, and excites the wonder of
j all."
I From Hon. Henry Monro, M. V. P., of Xev:~astle,
C. If., a leading member of the Canadian Parlia
ment.
j " I have used vour Sarsaparilla in mv family,
for general debility, and for purifying the bio-jd,
with verv benefMal results, and feel confidence in
I commending it to the afflicted."
St. Anthony's Fire, Hose, Salt Bheum, '
Scald Head, Sore Eyes.
From Harvey Sickler, Esq., the able editor of the I
Tunkhannock Democrat, Pennsylvania.
" Our only child, about three years of age, was j
attacked by pimples on bis forehead. They rapidly
spread until they formed a loathsome and virulent ;
sore, which covered his face, and actually blinded j
! his eyes for some days. A Skilful physician applied j
nitrate of silver and other remedies, without any I
apparent effect. For fifteen days we guarded his j
hands, lest with them he should tear open the fes
tering and corrupt wound which covered his whole
i lace. Having tried every thing else we had any ;
hope from, we began giving your Sarsaparilla, j
and applying the iodide oi potash lotion, as you |
I direct. The sore began to Ileal when we had given j
! the first bottle, and was well when we had finished j
the second. The child's eyelashes, which had come j
i out, grew again, and he is now as healthy and fair i
as any other. The whole neighborhood predicted ;
that the child must die."
Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
From Dr. Ilirum Sloat, of St. Louis, Missouri.
" I find your Sarsaparilla a more effectual
remedy for the secondary symptoms of Syphilis
| and for syphilitic disease than any other we passers.
The profession are indebted to you for some of the
j best medicines we have."
I From A. J. French, M. D., <J eminent physician of
Lawrence, Mass., who is a prominent member of
the. Legislature of Massachusetts.
! "Dp.. Aver. My dear Sir: I have found your
; SARSAPARILLA an excellent remedy for Syphilis,
i both of the primary and secondary type, and effee
| tual in sonic cases that were too obstinate to yield
! to other remedies. Ido not know what we can em ■
Rloy with more certainty of success, where a powor
il alterative is required."
Mr. Cha*. S. I 'an Liar, of Xew Brunswick, X.J.,
had dreadful ulcers on ills legs, caused by the abuse
of mercury, or mercurial disease, which grew more
and morc'aggravated for years, in spite of every
remedy or treatment that could be applied, until the
persevering use of AVer's Sabsapakilla relieved
fiim. Few cases can be found more inveterate and
distressing than this, and it took several dozen
bottles to cure him
Leucorrhcea, "Whites, Female "Weakness,
I are generally produced by internal Scrofulous Ut- j
! cerution, and are very often cured by the alterative
effect of this Sabsapakilla. Some cases require,
! however, in aid of the Sabsapakilla, the skilful
application of local remedies.
From the trelll.-notrn and widely-celebrated Dr.
Jacob Morrill, of Cincinnati.
" I have found your Sap.saparii.la an excellent
alterative in diseases of females. Many cases of
! Irregularity, Leueorrhoea, Internal Ulceration, and
I local debility, arising from the scrofulous diathesis,
have yielded to it, and there are few that do not,
wlieu its effect is properly aided by local treatment."
A lady, unicilling to allow the publication of her
name, writes .-
"Mv daughter and myself have been cured of a
\ very debilitating Leucorrha of long standing, by
, two bottles of your Sarsaparilla.
Hheumatism, Gout, Liver Complaint, Dys
pepsia, Heart Disease, Neuralgia,
' when caused by Scrofula in the system, are rapidly
I cured by this Ext. Sarsaparilla.
