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. Four
packages $2, or one dozen for $2. Send a two
cent stamp for Dr. Sage's pamphlet on Catarrh.

DEMOREST'S MONTHLY,
a magazine of praetical utility in the horde, a
mirror of tbe fishions, and a literary conser
vator of surpassing interest and artistio excel
cnc, acknowledged to be the modern parlor
magazine of America
1 he engraving, 28x32 inches, is from the or
iginal painting, entitled, 'The Pio-Nio on the
rourth of July."
the painting took a whole year, and is con
sidered tbe finest of the entire list of numerous
populor productions by Lillie M. Spencer. The
engraving was the labor of four years, by
three eminent artists John flodgers, Samuel
Halpin, and Samuel Hollycr ; Tbo last named
having been induced to come from Europe to
finish it. 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.
Fine copies of this magnificent picture, on
heavy plate paper, worth $10 eaeh, are to be
given as a premium to each subssriber to
DEMOREST'S MONTHLY MAGZINE.

scription), for the postage on the engravings
(which will be mailed securely done up on a

and splendid premium ever offered to single
subscribers by my publisher, and affords an
easy and economical way for any one to secure
an eleeant work of art, a Parlor Picture that
is only next to a piano in the way of ornamen
tation, and a perpetual reminder of a day
which ought to to be cherished and held in re
membrance by every true American.
The reception of this magnificent picture
will take every one by surprise and we do not
venture anything in saying that $10 will not
procure another that combines so niueh of in
terest and beauty.

WHOSE SUFFERING HAVE BEEN PRO

AND WHOSE CASES REQUIRE
PnOJtIFTTIlEtTJTIEJrT
TO RENDER EXISTENCE DESIRABLE.
If you are suffering or have suffered,
from involuntary discharges, what effect
docs it produce upon your general
health ? Do you feel weak, debilitated, ea
sily tired J Does a little extra exertion
produce palpation of the heart J Docs your
liver, or urinary organs," or your kidneys,
frequently get out of order ? Is your urine
sometimes thick, milky or flocky, or is it
ropy on settling ? Or does a thick skum
rise to the top? Or is a sediment at the
bottom after it has stood awbi'.e ? Do you
1 have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia?
Are your bowels constipated r lo you nave,
spells of fainting, or rushes of blood to the
head ? Is your memory impaired ? Is
your mind constantly dwelling on the sub
ject ? Do you feel dull, littles, moping,
tired of company, of lile ? Do you wish to
be left alone, to get away from everybody?
Does any little thing make you start or
jump ? Is your sleep broken or restless ?
Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant? Tho
bloom of your check as bright? Do you
enjoy yourself in society as well ? Do you
purtue your business with the same n :r
gy ? Do you feel as much confidence in
yourself ? Are your spirits dull and flag
ging, given to bts ot mciencnoiy r ii so, ao
not lay it to your liver or ainpcpsia. nave
you restless uights ? Your back weak, and
have but little appetite, and you attribute
this to dyspepsia or liver-complaint?
Now,. reader, self-abuse, veneral disease
badly cured, and sexual excesses, are all ca
pable of producing a weakness of the gene- '
rative organs. The organs of the genera
tion, when in perfect health, make the man.
Did you ever thiuk that thoe bold, defi
ant, energetic, persevering business-men
are always those whose generative organs
are in perfect health ? You ucver hear
such nion complain of being tnelencholy,
of nervousness, of Dalnataticn of the heart.
They arc never afraid they cannot succeed
in business; they don t Dccomc sua anu ois
couraged ; they are always polite and pleas
ant in company of ladies, aud look you and
fhem right in the face none of your down
cast looks or atiy other meanness about
them. I do not mean those who keep the
orgrns inflated by running to excess. These
will not only ruin their constitutions, but
also those they do business with or for.
How manoy men, from badly cured diseases,
from the effects of belf-nbmc and excesses,
have brouitlit about that slate of weakness iu
these organs that has reduced the goneral sys
tem so much as to induce almost every other
disease idiocy, paralysis, spinal affections,
suicide, and almost every other form of (lis.
