T HIS pleasant and certain cure for coughs and
colds goes ahead of all the preparations now or
ever offered to the public. The use of it is so great that
the proprietor has some difficulty in keeping a supply
for the increasing demand. Medical agencies, groce
ries, druggists. coffee houses, and even bars on steam
boats, keep a supplyon hand. It is called for every
where, and will sell in any place. The reason is this
every one who has a cough or cold by eating a few sticks
find themselves cured, as it were, by magic. Persons
at a di:lance, by remitting the money, post paid, to the
subscriber, will be attended to. Fur sale by the single

It was not, however, in quite so cheerful a mood

when I was a schoolboy, havieg been what is called
"unfortunate," (that is imprudent,) I was bequeathed
to the guardianship of a crabbed uncle, with sp. email
