It is an old and well-tried remedy. wil t A D-batable Question, While much has been written concerning the use of ' put np " medicines, the question is still an open on, and demands of the people a care'ul consideration. The salient points may be briefly stated, and answered as follows : 1st Are the sick capable of determining their real condition, the nature of their malady, and selecting the proper remedy or means of cure? 2d Can a physician no matter how skillful, prepare a universal remedy, adapted to the peculiar ailments of a large class of people, rosidmg in different latitudes, and subject to various climatio influences? In answer to the first proposition, we would say, diseases are named and known by certain " signs " or symp tomsf and, as the mother does not need a physician to tell her that her child has the whooping cough, or indicate a remedy, so peo ple when afflicted with many of the Symplons concomitant to " impure blood," " torpid liver," and " bad digestion," require no other knowledge of their condition, or the remedy indicated than they already possess. Second proposition Many physicians argue that dis eases are soctionally peculiar, and that treat ment must IherefnrA van or. A morphine, podophyllin, and hundrods of other remedies are prescribed in all countries to over come certain conditions. Is it not therefore, I Buu-oviueui, luai, a pnysician wnose large ex perience has made bim familiar with the many phases incident to all impurities' of the blood, general and nervous debility, liver complaint, dyspepsia, consumption, and catarrh, can pre pare a series of remedies exactly adapted to meet the conditions manifest, wherever, and by whatever means, it may have been engen dered V The family medicines prepared by R, V. Pierce, M. D of Buffalo, N. Y., fulfill the above requirements, Many physiciaD pre scribe tbem in their practice. His Golden Medical Discovery has no equal as a blood purifyer and general tonio, while his Favorite Prescription cures those weaknesses peculiar to women after physicians have failed. His Pleasant Purgativo Pellets, which are sugar coated and little larger than mustard seeds, are a safe and certain cure for " torpid " liver and constipation.

Debility, whether it be inherent, or caused by overtaxed strength or protracted illness, has a most dopresaing influence upon the mind, breeding au abject melancholy nearly akin to despair, aud enforcing the abandonment of cherished projects and high hopes. Happily, the enfeebled system, even in extreme cases, is susceptible of invigoration.
