. How TO
niay Jbe'glaid to learn that silk article* should ■
notbe'jkepX folded in whilepaper,'a*(hechlo
ride of (ime used in bleaching the paper will
probably impair the color of ine sit.k. Bibwb
or blue paper)? belter ; the yellowish, amool h
India paper is beat of all. Sitka intended for
dresashobld not be kept long to. the house
before they are made up,as lying in the folds
will have a tendency to'impair its durability
by causing it to color split, particularly, if
the silk has been thickened by gum. Thread
lace vails pre very easily cut. But dresses
of velvet should pot be laid by with anv
weight upon them.' If the nap of a thin vel
vet is down it is not possible to raise it up
again. Hard silk should never be wrinkled,
because the ihread is easily broken in the
crease, and it never con be rectified. The
way to take the wrinkles out of si/k scarfs
and handkerchiefs is to moisten the surface
evenly with a sponge and some weak glue,
and then pin the silk with some toilet pins
around the selvedges on a ma’tress or feather
bed, taking pains to draw ou* the silk as tight
as possible. When d'y, all the wrinkles will
have disappeared. The reason of ’his is ob
vious 10 eveiy person. It is a nice job to
dress light colored silk, and few should try
it. Some silk articles should be moistened
with weak glee or gum-waier, and the wrin
kles iioned out by a hot flji-iioo on the wrong
side.— TV. F. Tribune.
“Love at First Sight.” —As a very in
teresting young lady was passing down Mum
street yesterday morning, she was somewhat
startled upon hearing some one behind hef
in earnest entreaty that she would stop;
looking around, she beheld a man apparently
well dressed, but with a wild look, rapidly
her. Wi'h admirable coolness,
the lady waited bis approached, and upon his
resting his hand upon her shoulder, said:
‘•Well, sir,, can 1 do_anylhing for you?"
"Yes, madapie, you can,” replied the mu mac.
“I am in search of a partner and a bosom
friend.” “'Veil,” answered the lady, *‘al.
most any one who behaves himse'f in a proper
manner could, I should think, easily find one.”
•‘Do you really think so ?” was the rejoinder;
“then, madame,” laying his hand impressively
upon his breast,” allow me to make you a
formal offer of my heart and hand.” The
lady, not at all taken aback by 10astounding
a declaration, quietly replied, “ihat thestieel
was hardly a proper place for sn important
a declaration —that a more private one would
be belter suited for so delicate a communica
tion.” The maniac, soothed and. delighted,
with visions, perhaps, of a cosy tete-a-tete
wilh his fair imerlocuter at some future lime,
said, “I thank for your good advi. e—
good morning,” and depa'led with a g aceful
bow, leaving ihe young lady lo pprsne her
walk without farther molestation. —Buffalo
Adeerlitct.
Fashionable Ciiurh in New York.—
You enter the chu ch porch. The po lly
sexton, wilh his thumbs in the arm holes of
his ves , meets you at the door. He glances
at you, your coal and hat are new, so he gra
ciously escorts you to an eligible seat in the
broad aisle. Close behind you follows a poor,
meek, plainly clad seamstress, deprived from
her treadmill round to think one day in seven
of the Immortal. The sestou is struck wilh,
sudden blindness. She stands embar assed
one moment, then, as the Iruih dawns upon
her, retraces her steps, and, with a crimson
blush, tecrosses the threshold which she has
profaned with her plebian feel. Hark lo lhe
organ. It is a strain from Norma, sligh ly
Sabbathized. Now the worsh'ppers one af e
ano'her glide in—silks ratile—plumes wave
—satin glistens—diamonds glitter and scores
of forty dollar handkerchiefs shake out Iheir
perfumed odors, What an absurdity to
preach the Gospel of the lowly Nazariie to
such a set. The clergyman knows berer
than to do so. He values his fat salary and
handsome parsonage 100 highly. So wih a
velvet i i-ead he walks all around iheten com
mandments —places the downiest pillow un
der the dying profliga es head—and ushers
him with seraphic hymning into an upper
ten Heaven. —Fanny Fern.
Faith Illustrated. —Volumes have been
writlen lo explain the nature of faith, but we
doubt whether ine reader :a(ier wading thro'
the whole of 'hem, will ;have so clear an
idea of it as is conveyed by the following sim
ple but beautiful illustration;
“There was once a scaffolding erected by
the s'de of a bouse, and if gave way, end a
person was precipitated from tlw place where
lie stood. However in his descent he got
hold of a rope, and hung in mid-air. A per
son from below said, ‘lf you will let go, I
will catcft you, do not be afraid, Hus' me,
I will not let you hun yourself.’ He hesita
ted, but at length relaxed bis hold, and fell;
and was safelv received ; bv his friend below.
Jusl so, if we can irusi in Jesus, when iv
calls upon us lo venture all upon him, lo com
mit our guilty souls to his care to lake his
Word os our guide, lo accepi his au'hori'v as
our law, we shall find that it is not only a
wise, but a safe ami happv course.
A friend who recently happened on the
same car with Hqrace Greelv, (ells ite fol
lowing; Mr. Greely was trying to read a
newspaper by the “dim religious tight of a
car lamp, in order to see he raised <he wick,
but hardly bad he done so, before (he lamp
trimmer came along and turned it down.
The moment his back‘^as-turned, Greely
raised it up again. The Knight,of the “Dark
Lantern” presently Came along again and
partly shut off the light by which the'philoso
pher was reading. Greely remonstrated.
The official thrust his lantern in hitface, sur
veyed him with a contemptuous air a moment,
and coolly replied : “Old fellow, you talk lob
much.”, ; .

No person can feel, well while & costive habit of
body prevails; besides it soon'genefates serious and
often fatal beg avoided
by the timely and juoldpus use of a good purgative.
This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms, and
BUiops dtfofngqmente. They all tesa to become or
produce the deep seated and formidable distempers
which load the hearses all over .the land* Hence a
reliable family physio iaof the first importance to
the public health, and this Fill has been perfected
with consummate skill to mecMhap dejnand. An
extensive trial df ittVirtut&Tjy'Fhyßlctthr, Profes
sors, and Patients, has shown result* surpassing
any thing hitherto known of any medicine; Cures
have been effected beyond belief, were they not sub
stantiated by persons of such exalted position and
character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth.
Among the many eminent, gentlemen who have
testified m favor of these Pills. we may mention:
Da. A. A. HITSS, Analytical Chemist, of Boston, ,
and State Assayer of Massachusetts, whose high
professional character is endorsed by the
Hon. Edward Everett, Senator of the U. 8.
Kob&bj p..VyiNTUHOP, Ex-Speaker of the House
•f Representatives.
Abbott Lawrence, Minister Flen. to England.
+ John B. Fitspateicr, Cath. Bishop of Boston.
Also, Da. X. B. Chilton, Practical Chemist, of
New York City, endorsed by
Hon. W. Secretary of State.
Wic. B. Abtoßt the richest man in America.
8. Leland & Co., Propr’s of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and others.
Did space permit, we could give many hundred
certificates, from all parts where the Pills have
been used, but evidence even more convincing than
tiie experience of eminent public men is found in
their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation and
study, are offered to the public as tbc best and
most complete which the present state of medical
science cun afford. They are compounded not of
the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by chemical *
process in a state of purity, and combined together
m such a manner as to insure the best results. This
system of composition for medicines has been found
in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a
more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob
. tained by any process* ■ ; The reason is perfectly;oh
riohs. ‘ while by tHc bid mode df composition, every
medicine is burdened with more- or less of acriv
monioua and injurious equalities, by this each indi- i
vidual virtue only thqt is desired for the curative
effect is present All the inert and obnoxious qual
ities of each substance employed are left behind, the
curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is
self-evident the effects Should prove as they have
■ proved more purely and the Pills a surer,
more powerful antidote to disease than any other
roedieme known to the world.
Asjit is frequently expedient that ray medicine
shonld be taken under the counsel of an attending
Physician,-and as he could not properly judge of a
remedy without knowing its composition, 1 have
supplied the accurate Formal© by which both my
Pectoral and Pills are made to the whole body of
Practitioners in the United States and British Amer
ican Provinces. If, however, there should be any
•on£ who has not ‘received them, they will be
promptly forwarded by mail to his address.
Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how
few would be taken if their composition was known!
Their life consists in their mystery. 1 have no
mysteries. . ....
The composition of my preparations is laid open
to all men, and all who are competent to judge on
the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of
their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral was
pronounced by scientific men to oc a wonderful
medicine before its effects were known. Many em
inent Physicians have declared the same
my Pills, and even more confidently, and are will
ing to certify that their anticipations were more
than realized by their effects upon trial.
They operate by their powerful influence on the
internal viscera" to purify the blood and stimulate it
into, healthy action—remove the obstructions of
the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the
body, restoring their irregular action to health, and
by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange
ments [as are the first origin of disease.
Befog sugar wrapped they are pleasant to take,
and being purely vegetable, ho harm can wise fr°®
their Use in any quantity.
