IMPORTANT TO THE SICK AND AFFLICTED. — Dr. J. M. STEWART will lie at the AVard House, Feb. Is. and will stay until Feb. 21th. 18155. for the purpose of healing the siek and afflicted. No medicine gixen. No Surgical operations performed. From five to thirty minutes are required for the most in veterate eases of almost any kind of Chronic dis eases. The siek poor are invited to call upon Dr. STEWART and he will treat them gratuitously, lit does not want any one to suffer in health because they are not rich in this world's goods. feaT'A class lias been organized in our borough for instruction and drill in what is called ! "The Light and Parlor Gymnastics." This sys tem has been brought to great perfection by Dr. DlO LEWIS, of Boston, and we have the happiness of having one of his pupils us the teacher of the clas... These exercises have received the sanction and approval of the most eminent ph\ sicians ; and the slightest insight cannot fail to convince the most skeptical, of their great value in giving 1 strength and symmetry to the physical frame. To invalids, with judicious care this drill must be-imalnable. In fact, we really believe that one half the diseases on the physician's list would he avoided if timely attention were paid to this sub ject by those who fti'e growing np. "An ounce of preventative is worth a pound of cure." It is, however, 111 it a nitre child's play. There is scarcely one in ten of our men and women, how ever active their pursuits, that wiuld not be In n -1 fitted by such a drill. Some take a good deal of exercise, hut the exercise is all tending to the de velopment of one set of muscles at the expense of all otln-rs. The dcvtlopi iiunt is abnormal, defec tive, distorted, unseemly, a fact which is quite ap parant to the most casual observer. For more reasons than the above, we think that those who value health and strength, are not wist unless they avail themselves of the opportunity now offered by M:.-s CAILIFE s class. Miss CAILIEJ brings with her the highest testimonials as to her qualifications for the work. Those who have en joyed the privilege of her instructions would do her injustice if they did not cheerfully commend In r to public patronage, as a judicious, accomplished, and skillful teacher. We understand that a m v term is about to open. We predict abundant suc cess. The system has only to be well understood to be received everywhere. HQ?"
