markable cures which they have performed, may justly
lay claim to the title of conqsarcr over the diseases for
which they have been recommended. Dr. Sherman's
"Cough Lozenge." cure the moat obstinate cases of
Cough in a few hours. They have cured a large number
of nersnns who have been given up by their physicians
and friends, end many who have been reduced to the

the administration of medicine to them in this form,
is great beyond deecritelon. When the breath of the

as there are many unprincipled persons who woold force

POOR' DEAR MRS. ARMSTRONG
A TALE OF SIGHS. --1
By IL Basting. Weld.
Chapter 1.
Mr. Charles Armstrong was not only equable
and mem in his own houee... - but was no lee's the
pattern of patience ouLof doors; and in his'busi
nets as well as his -matrimonial relations. Per.
haps it was liecaue his wife was a gond school
iiiist.ess. and the trial .of Lis patience at homedent
him abroad with That virtue well palished and bur
nished up, and ready for any encounter with a
troublesome world. trite had not been a man of
exemplary meekness, he would have stormed a
little seen, on the very day that his wife was as
tonished in her kitchen' by Peggy, ho was thum
der struck in his counting-room by his bookkeeper,
whd told.him that the business paper submitted by
him,on the day, before for thecount,! had been
thrown out," or refused. This. to a man of Mr,
Aritistrong'a methodical habits, 1.785 indeed an as•
t.dilintnent. lie had kept his accounetit this one
bank ever since be had en in business. Hefted ,
never exceeded his line" of accommodationl; or
strained his credit a half penny. lie had offered
his legitimate business piper ass matter of potirse,
and as a Matter of course he had received the pro
ceeds. All his dealings with the institution lhail
been as regular and unvarying as the rising ot the
sun, and whyl this eelip:e had come over his litisi
ness light he could not divine or guess. He kniltv
that his affair* were in a Perfectly solvent cdtidi-
I
lion, and that his credit was gond, or oughttia he,
for any reason q that existed to the contrary. But
as he had caleulated positively on the receipt of
the money on that day', and as he had never
dreamed of any disappoihtmenr, .he was, by the
contre temps. place4slia a predicament.
s;koa, well," he thought, it can soon be fixed.
For to-day I will berrow.fand tomorrow open an
amount at a new bank." Su he' examined his
account. drew the last fraction he had on deposite
at the.disobliging institution, and pot on his hat to
go out and raise the balance of the sum necessary.
He fancied it wotd I be done in fifteen minutes.
But the taint of a blow to a man's credit spreads
Jilt. the cholera. Armstrong was amazed and
chagrined to meet only labored and stammering
excuses from the friends that he„had so often
obliged. Every body nes a "little abort." Some
conning fellow*, who suspected his errand, even
anticipated Min by _asking him to lend. Aston
i.ted beyond measure at his ill success, and more
iumiliated in spirit than he had ever been before
in his life, he returned to hi. counting-mom at
isso.o'clock. and with, the notes in his hand that
Lad been refused the day, before, again sallied out.
.
This time, experience warned, Se did not apply to
friends. He had enough of them. He raised the
corn he needed, with no otber i dildiculty than wh
en:a:ion to a very unbuairiestqlike shave," for his
securities were unexceptionable. But if he was
compelled to submit to a mortifying discount; he
had at least the satisfaction that he was •square
with the world," and a little more., He had paid
so much for his accommodation that be owed no-
body any thanks; and that, in this selfiah world,
is no small consolation. his often a Sill equiva
lent fur money paid io note-ahavera : that is to say,
if one is not compelled to go ' so far.into the purr.
chaos of the luxury as to ruin his credit and bank
rupt his business. It might have disturbed Mr.
Armstrong t onsiderably, if belted knoWn that the
broker who bought his paper did it with the funds
of one of the very men who had told him in the
morning that he had more payments to meet than
he could do without borrowing. It is a crooked
wutl 1, and it is sometimes maliciously said that
,he crookrdest corner of it may be found in Wall
Street. •
'After the hurry and excitement of the morning
were over, and Armstrong had also made himself
easy fur the next immediate cuntiniencies,
he Was nut io the habit of doing things by halves)
he found time to sit down in his office and wonder
what all these things meant. He scanned the

. Frank' went home with his brother-inlaw to
dinner. Mrs. -Armstrong looked uncommonly
unlike a person whgbwas in the process of being
gradually • exterminated. The laugh she had en
joyed in the morning. as we' have already related,
had broken in upon the usual solemnity of her
visage. As she had been compelled to assist in'
the kitchen, Peggy had seized the opportunity to
throw out such a vast number of Orphic sayings
and ominous "abs!" that poor Mn.. A., puzzled
and amused at the caricature of herself, had in•
warillyi determined never to sigh again, if she
could help it. She exerted herself to be ogreea•
ble, and was inwardly full of mirth at the con;
sealed fun which she was waiting to find the clue
to. As to Armstrong, predisposed as he was to
be in a good humor, fie om the fact that his unknown
enemies, whoever they were, were foiled, the smil
