nr IMPORTANT TO THE LADIES
Dr. GKISKNKR'S Celebrated Menstrual Pills
have been long and widely known as invari
ably cenaidin removing any stoppage, irreg
ularity, or suppression ol the menses.
In the leniule hospitals in Vienna, Paris,
and Berlin,they have entirely superseded the
Use of ail other remedies; because, where a
cure is attainable by medicinal agencies,
they are certain of success. Their astonish
ing efficacy would be almost incredible, if
not vouched for by indubitable testimony, in
numerous ioHtancee producing returns of lite
monthly period alter all hope had been aban
doned.
In every case, from whatevercauso the ob
struction may arise, as also to prevent preg
nancy where the health will not admit ol in
crease of family, they are always efficient;
for which reason they must not be used du
ring pregnancy, though always mild, healthy,
safe and certain in their effects.
Married ladies will find , articular instruc
tions in the directions, io which are stated
the various symptoms by which the cause of
the suppression may be determined.
Price, One Dollar per Box, containing ex
plicit directions.

" Lovo rules the court, the camp the grove,
For Love is Heaven, anil Heaven is Love."
So sang the Bard; yet thousands pine
For love—of life the light divine—
YVho, did they know some gentle charm,
The hearts of those they love to warm,
Might live, might die, in bliss supreme,
Possessing nil of which they dream.
The roud to Wedlock would you know I
Delay not, but to RONDOUT go.
Time flies, and from his gloomy wings
A shadow fails on living things;
Then seize the moments as they pass,
Ere fall the last Hands through the glass;
At least the present is your own,
YVhile ail the future is unknown.

CONTENTS:
It tenches how to make ladies or gentle
men win the devoted affections of as many
of the opposite sex as iheir hearts may desire.
And the plan is simple, yet so captivating
that nil may be married irrespective of age,
appearance nr position: and it can be arran
ged with such edse and delicacy, that detec
tion is impossible.
It teaches how tn make love,
it teaches every eye to form a beauty of its
own.
It leaches 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.
It gives advice to the lover who has been
once truly accepted, and is rejected alter
wards through the interln:ence of Iriends.
It gives a remedy for unrequited love.
It givos you instructions lor beautifying the
person.
How to have a handsome face and hands.
How to remove tan and freckles.
A lecture on love, or a Private Advice to Mar
ried Ladies and Gentlemen. _
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 Life, that has ever been
issued from the American press. The artifi
cial social system, which in so many instan
ces prevents a union ol hearts, and sacrifice
to conventionalism the happiness and even
the lives of thousands of the young and hope
ful ol both sexes, is thoroughly analyzed and
exposed. Every one who contemplates mar
riage, and wishes for an infallible guide in
the selection of a partner for life, should pur
chase this great text book of connubial feli
city.
No one will ever regret the price paid for
such an invaluable secret.
Bills ol any of the specie-paying banks in
the United Stales or Canadas received at par.
Gold dust can be sent from California.
