Josh Billings' Spice-Box,
Most every one luves to listen to a
slander, but thare aint but phew but
what dispise the author ov it.
W7hat a heartless world this would be
if thare waz no tears in it.
Wize men are never surprized, while
phools are alwuss wondering at every
thing that happens.
I meet a crate mennv men whoze
talk iz like a buntch ov fire krackers
when they are fust tutched oph, full ov
pop for a fu minnitts, and then all is
over.
Without munny, without friends, and
without impudence, iz about az low
down in this world az enny man kan git,
and keep virtewous.
.beware ov the man who iz alwuss
reddy to swop old friends for new ones.
The dog that will phollow everybody,
aint worth a kuss.
When I pla whist I allwuss like a
phool for a partner, for they do hold
sutch good hands.
Thare iz nothing that a man iz so
ceriain ov oz he iz ov what he sees, and
yet thare iz nothing after all that de
ceaves him oftner.
I hav had people set doown bi mi
side, and konlidenshally undertake to
explain sum thing to me ov grate ini
portanse, and after talking 34 minnitts
bi tne watcli. 1 not only didn t kno what
they had been trieing to tell, but had
forgot a good deal that I knew before.
Thare iz but little that iz new under
the sun, and what iz aint good for
mutch.
One ov the most perfekt viktorys yu
kan achieve over enny man is to beat
him in politeness.
The rarest artikle quoted in market
just now iz good common sense.
lung man yu had better be honest
than cunning, and it iz hard work to be
both.
After a man haz passed the age ov 57
about all ho kan find to talk about and
to brag on iz that he haz got more
pains and akes than enny tho rest ov his
nabors.
I kant tell exackly what's the matter
ov mo, but i am allwuss just a leetle
shy ov the woman who wears her hair
kut short.
The world at large judge ov us bi our
sukcess.
It ought to kuro the pride ov enny
man when he rcflekts that there aint no
one living but what owes more to the
world than the world owes to him.
To be familiar with every one and
preserve yure respekt, and their es
teem, iz an evidense of the most remark'
abel tallents.
The crate mistake that mennv peO'
pie make iz to think that they waz made
ueiore the world waz mated ov since.
Tho Risk of it.
In dueling the risks are not all against
the unpracticed man, or even against
the poltroon. "You will never think
of accepting an apology like that?"
the story runs, that tke friends of a
famous duelist in Ireland once said to
him when he received an apology in
answer to a challenge.
"Why not?"
"Because it is not full enough."
" Perhaps not," was the answer, " if
the man knew how to use a pistol. But
it is bad policy to foroe a coward into
the field; for there is always the risk of
his hand shaking at the' last moment in
a mortal direction."
This is always the risk to be thought
of, and none but a practiced duelist
Knows what it is.

A witty Cincinnati lady, writing from
Washington, says : Boston draws her
self up severely, soans your cerebral de
velopments through her eyeglass, and
coolly asks: "What do you know?"
Now York displays her silks and dia
monds, and pertly asks : " What are
yon worth?" Philadelphia, with prime
hands and Dursed-up lips, nsks : "Who
was your grandfather?' While Wash
ington stops between the waltz and the
german to inquire, " Can you dance ?"

Dr. .1. Walker's California Y in

preparation, mado chiefly from tbo nu
tivo herbs found on tho lower ranges of
ho. Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
ih, tho medicinal properties of which
ii o extracted therefrom without tho uno
if Alcohol. Tho question is almost
laily asked, "What is tho cause of tho
mparnllolod success of Vinegar Bit
i'ers V Our answer is, that they remo
ho cause of diseaso, and tho patient rt
overs his hcaltrT. They aro tho groat
)luod purifier and a life-giving principle,
1 perfect IJcnovator and Invigorator
1 f tho system. Never before in tho
history of tho world has a medicine bocu

sick ff every diseaso man is heir to. They
;ire a gentlo Purgative as well as a Tonic,
relieving Congestion or Inflammation of
tho Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious
Diseases.
Tlio properties of Dr. Walker's
Viskgar Bitters aro Aperient, Diaphoretic,
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretio,
Sedative, Counter-irritant, Sudorific. Altera

EGAR BlTTEKS tllO lUOSt Wonderful Ilt
vigorant that ever sustained tho sinking
system.
No Person ran take these Bitters
according to directions, and remain long
unwell, provided their bones are not de
stroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and vital organs wasted beyond
repair.
Bilious. Remittent and Inter
mittent 1 Cvers, which are so preva
lent in tho valleys of our great rivers
throughout the United States, especially
those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri,
Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan
sas, Hed, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande,
Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro
anoke, James, and many others, with
their vast tributaries, tnrougnout our
entire country during the Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so during sea
sons of unusual heat and dryness, aro
invariably accompanied by extensive do
rangements of tho stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary. There
is no cathartic for the purpose equal to
Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters,
as they will speedily remove tho dark
colored viscid matter with which the
bowels are loaded, at the same time
stimulating the secretions of tho liver,
aud generally restoring the healthy
functions of the digestive organs. ,
Fortify the body against disease
by purifying all its fluids with Vixegam
Bitters. No epidemic can take hold
of a svstcm thus fore-armed.
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head

Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour
Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Tasto

tation of the Lloart, Inflammation of the
Luigs, Pain in the region of tho Kid
neys, and a hundred other painful symp
toms, are the oflsprillgs of Iyepepeia.
One bottle will prove a better guarantee
of its merits than a lengthy advertise
ment. Scrofula, or King's Evil, White
Swellings, Uleers, Erysipelas, Swelled Keck,
Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent
Inflammations, Mercurial A flections, Old
Sores, Eruptions of tho Skin, Soro Eyes, etc.
Iu these, as in all other constitutional Dis
eases, Walker's Vinegar Bitters havo
shown their great curative powers in the
most obstinnto and intractable cases.
For Inflammatory and Chronic
Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit
tent aud Intermittent Fevers, Diseases ot
tho Blood, Liver, Kidneys and "'adder,
these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases
are caused by Vitiated Blood.
Mechanical Diseases. Persons en
gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as
Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and
Miners, as they advance in life, are subject
to paralysis of tho Bowels. To guard
against this, take a dose of -Walker's Vin
egar Bitters occasionally.
For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet

are effectually destroyed and removed. No
system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an

like theso Bitters.
For Female Complaints, in young

Bitters display bo decided an influence that
improvement is soon perceptible.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when
ever you find its impurities bursting through
the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores;
cleanse it when you find it obstructed and
sluggish in tho veins ; cleanse it when it is
