THIS Infallible Remedy does not, like the poisonous irritating snuffs and strong caustic solutions with which the people have long been humbugged, simply palliate for a short time, or drive the disease to the lungs as there is danger of doing in tbe use or such nos trums, but it produces perfect and permanent cures of the wsiBt cases of Chronio Catarrh, as housnnds can testify. Cold in the head is cur ed with a few applications. Catarrhal Head ache is relieved and curod as if bv niugio. It removes offensive breath, loss or impairment of the sense of taste, smelling or hearing, water ing or weak eyes, and impaired memory, when caused by the violence of Catarah, as they fre quently are. I offer in good faith a standing reward of 500 for a case of Catarrh that I cannot cure. For sale by most druggists everywhere. Price only 60 cents. Ask your druggist for tbe remedy ; but if he has not yet got it on sale, don't put it off by accepting any miserable worse than worthless substitute, but enclose sixty cents to me, and the remedy will be sent you postpaid.

The engravers have ably seconded tbe successful labors of the painter. None but artists can fully appreciate the skill and labor lavished on this engraving Tbe general ef tect is very fine and impressive, and the deli- rate finish to the heads will bear the most mi nute inspection. The union of line and stipple is executed with unusual ability, and their skilful combination has greatly contributed to the success of the engravers in this unsurpass ed proof of their geuius. Theiwork on tbe engraving alone cost over. seven thousand dollars, besides the cost of the copyright, and is acknowledged by competed judges the most elaborately finished large work of art evor engraved in America.
