In the female hospitals in Vienna, Paris,

they are certain of success. Their astonish

'' Love rules the court, the camp the grove.
For Love is Hrare.i, and Heaven is Love-!
So sang the Bard; yet thousand? pine
Forlorn—of life the light divine—
Who, did ihey know some gentle charm,
The hearts ot those ihey love to warm,
Might live, might die, in bliss supreme,
Possessing all of which Ihey dream.
The road to Wedlock would you know 1
Delay not, but to RONDOUT go. •
Time flies, and from Ids gloomy wings
A shadow falls on living things;
Then sdize the moments as they pass,
Ere fall the last sands through the glass;
At least the present is your own,
While ail the future is unknown.
A happy marriage man or maid
Can now secure by RONDOUT'S aid.
CONTENTS:
It teaches how to make ladies or gentle
men win the devoted affections of as many
of tbe opposite sex as their heartamay desire.
And the plan is simple, yet so captivating
that all may be married irrespective of age,
appearance or position; snd it can be arran
ged with such ease ana delicacy, that detec
tion is impossible.
It teaches how to make love.
It teachea every dye to form a beauty ol its
own.
It teaches how to act when fascinated by a
lady.
It leaches how to make the wrinkled face
smooth.
It teaches you the kind of a wife to select to
render home happy. •
II gives advice to ihOj "lover who has been

It gives you instructions lor beautifying the

How to have a handsome face and hands.
How to remove tan and freckles.

This is decidedly the most fascina'ing, in
teresting and really useful and practical work
on Courtship, Matrimony, and the duties and
delights ol Married Lite, that has ever been
issued from the American press. The artifi
cial social system, which in so many instan
ces prevents a union ot hearts, and sacrifice
to conventionalism the happiness and even
thelives of thousands of the young and hope
ful ot both sexes, is thoroughly analyzed and
exposed. Every one who contemplates mar

A ROMANCE—BY FANNY FIRN.
The IBKI work, and first continuous tale of
of this brilliant and fascinating authoress,
"Hulh Hall," achieved 4 success unexam
pled in the annals of letters. In the language
ni 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
"Ru'h Hall." Judging from the number of
copies of il we have sold, we judge that
every body in the U. States has read it. As
respects the work we have now in press, ROSE
CLARE, we can only eay that we regard it as,
in every respect, a greater, better work ; and
are' confidant it will not only sustain, but
even increase ihe reputation of its distinguish
ed authoress. We have reasona tor think
ing "Rose Clark" will make a greater sensa
tion than did "Ruth Hall."
It will form an elegant 12 mo. volume of
over 400 pages. Price 81.25, on receipt of
which copies will be sent by mail, post
