uTve known some very mean men in
toy time. There was Deacon Overreach;
now, he was so mean, he always carried a
hen in his gig-bos when he traveled, to
pick up the oats his horse wasted in tlie
manger, and lay an rgg for his breakfast
in the mifjrlrg. And then there was Hu
go Ilimmclmun, who made his wife dig
potatoes to pay tor the m trriage license. I
must tell you that story of Hugo, lor ii'n
not a bad one ; and good stoiic?, like poia
toei.aiu'l as plenty as they used to be w hen
1 was a boy. Hugo is a neighbor of mine,
although considerably older than 1 be,
and a mean neighbor lie is, too. Will,
fthfec he was going to get married to Oret
chen Kolp, he goes down to Parson Rog
ers, at Digby, to get a license. Parson,
Say he, what's the price of a license ?'
'Sit dollars,' says he. 'Six dollars !' says
Hugo ; 'that's a dreadful sight of money !
Couldn't you take no less Y -That's what
!hey cost me to the Stcretarv's office at
Halifax.' 'Well, how much do you ax for
publishing in church, then V 'Nothing,'
6ays parson. 'Well,' says Hugo, 'that's
to cheap I can't expect you to give no
change back. I think I'll be puMished.
How long dues it taKe V 'Three Sundays.'
Three Sundays!' says Hugo, 'Well, thai'
a hong time, too. But three Sundays only
are a fortnight after all ; two for the covers
and one for the inside like ; and six dollars
is a great sum of money for a poor man to
throw away. I must wait.' Sn otT he
went a jogging towards home, and a-Iook-ing
about as mean as a new-sheared sheep,
when all at once a bright thought came
fato his head, and back he went, ns hard
as his horse could carry him. 'Parson,'
says hcIVe changed my mind. Here's the
six dollars. I'll tie the knot to ni-jht with
my tongue that I can't undo with my teeth
ffhy, what in natut' is the meaning of all
... ,, ,, ,
this ! says parson. 'Why,' says Hugo.

it's cheaper than publishing bans, after all

WORMS worms ! Various theorie
have been started rlative to the origin
of intestinal worms, and yet the question i
a vexed one among medical authorities. Oi
one fact, however, all are informed, and in
which all agree the fatal nature of the
influence they exert on children. As this
season of llie year is one at which attacks
of worms are most frequent as well as most
dangerous,we take great pleasure in direct
ing the attention of parents to Dr.M'Lane'e
Vermifuge. It is one of the most extraor
dinary medicines ever introduced, and ha
never failed of success when tried.

cough : after using various other remedies with
little or no benefit, by tbe use of one bottle ot Dr
Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry, he

he attributes his cure entirely to your Compound
Syrup of Wild Cherry."
Be not deceived by the many spurious and
worthless preparations of Wild Cherry, ushered
into notice by ignorant pretenders, but see that
the signature of Dr. Swayoe is upon each bottle,
which ia the only guarantee against imposition.

Swayne's celebrated Vermifuge,

for a long time, and is universally acknowledged
bv all who have tried it to be fur superior (being
so very pleasant to the taste, at the same time
efiectual) to any other medicine ever employed in

Extract from tbe London Medical Journal.
C.J. B.WiiiiAtss, M. D.. F.RS Professor of
Medicine in University College, London, consul
ting physii ian to the Hospital for Consumption,
&c , ajs ; ' I have prescribed the Oil in above
four hundred cases of tebriculou disease of the
Lungs, in different atages,which have been under
my care the last two year and a half. In the
Urge number of cases, 306 out of 334, its use was
followed by marked, unequivocal improvement,
varying in degree in different cases, from a tem
porary retardation of tbe progress of the disease
snd a mitigation of distressing symptoms, op lo
a more or less coinpleto restoration to apparent
health.
" The effect of the Cod Liver Oil in most of
these cases was very remarkable. Even in a few
days the cough was mitigated, tbe expec oration
diminished in quantity and opacity, the night
sweats ceased, the pulse became alower, and of
better volume, and the appetite, flesh and atiength
were gradually improved.
In conclusion I repeat that ttie pure fresh Oil
from Ihe Liver of the Cod is more beneficial in
the treatment of Pulmonary Consumption than
any sgent, medicinel, dietetic or regimcnul, that
has yet been employed." '
As we have made arrangements to pro1
cure the Cod Liver Oil fresh from head
qrjarlers, it can" now be had chemically
pure, by ihe single bottle or in boxes of
one dzen each.
Its wonderful ctrlcacy has induced num
erous spurious imitations. As its success
depends entirely on its purity, too much
care can not be used in procuring it or.xr
ikb. Every bottle having on it our written
signature, may be depended on as genuine.

Oil, with notices of it from the Medical
