IMPORTANT TO IVMALES——DLCHEESEMANS'
PILLS.— The combinations of ingredients in
these l'ills, is the result of a long ami ex
tensive practice; thry arc mild in their opcr.
atioo, and certain in restoring nature to its
proper channel. In evary instance It .vc the
Pills proved successful. The Pills invsrii.
hly open "those obstruction* to which females
are liable, and hring nature into its proper
channel, whereby heath is restored, and the
pale and deadly countenance changed to a
healthy one, No female can enjnv Rood
health unless she is egulai ; and whenever
an obstruction takes place, whether fiom ex
posure,cold, or any other ca jse, the genetal
health immediately begun to decline, and the
want of such a remedy ba< beer, the ctusr of
so many consumptions among young leinolo.
To ladies whose health will not permit an in
crease of thoir family, Iho-e Pills will prove
a valuable acquisition, is they will prevent
pregnancy. Headache, pain in the side, pa|
pitation of the heart, lonlhine of food, and
disturbed sleep do mw'. ntwav* arise from the
interruption of natu.e; and whenever that is
the case, the Pills will invariably remedy all
these evils. Nor are they less efficacious in
the cure of Lcucotthoea, commonly called the
"Whiles," These Pills should never he ta.
ken during pregnancy, as they would he sure
to cause a mitcarrigac. Waranted to lie purclv
Vegetable, and free from anything injurious to
life or health. Full and explicit directions

BTIMPORTANT TO THE LADIES
Dr. GF.ISSNEK'S Celebrated Menstrual l'ills
have been long and w nlely known as invari
ably certain in removing any stoppage, irreg
ularity, or suppression ol the menses.
In the female hospitals in Vienna, Psris,
and Berlin, they have entirely superseded the
use of all other remedies; because, where a
cure is attainable by medicinal agencies
they are certain of success. Their astonish
ing efficacy would be almost incredible, tl
not vouebnd for by indubitable testisnony, in
numerous instances producing returns of the
monthly period alter all hope had been aban
doned.
In every case, from whatever cause the ob
struction may arise, as also to prevent preg
nancy where lite health will not admit nl in
crease of family, they are always efficient;
for which reason they must not be used (lu
ting pregnancy, though always mild, healthy,
safe and certain in their effects.
Married ladies will find particular instruc
lions itt the directions, io which are staled
tho various symptoms by which the cause of
the suppression may be determined.

the first of December, a new work of fiction
entitled
m
A ROMANCE—BY FANNY FERN.
The lust work, and first continuous tale of
of this brilliant and fascinating authoress,
Hitili Hall," achieved a success unexam
pled in the annsls ol letters. In the language
nl a leading periodical, it "created a more
profound sensation than any which has been
issued during a quarter of a century." But
it is unnecessary to allude to the merits of
"Ruth Hull." Judging from the number of
copies ot it wo lisve sold, we judge that
every body in the U. Statea has read it. As
respects the wotk we have now in press, ROSE
CLARK, we can only say that we regard it as,
in every respect, a gteater, better work ; and
ate confident it will not only sustain, but
even increase the reputation of its distinguish
ed authoress We have reasons lor think
ing "Rore Clark" will make a greater sensa
tion than ilid ''Ruth Hall."
It will form an elegant 12 mo. volnmeof
over 400 pages. Price $1.25, on receipt of
which copies will be sent by mail, post
paid. It will be for sale by al! booksellers.
Any newspaper giving the advertisement
three insertions, and sending us a copy o!
paper, with udvettisemeot marked, will re
ceive an advance copy of the. work, by mail
post-paid. Published by
