THE TURNPIKE ROAD TO DUTY.
A father once set out with his son on
a visit to a neighboring village, that lay'
at a little distance from the place where
they were, but instead of keeping the
turnpike road, the father purposely en
tered on a common, here and there
spread over with brambles and thorn
bushes, where he wandered backwards
and forwards for some time. The son
was very patient, but at lust cried out,
"rather, it is not at all likely that we
shall get to the village so long as we
wander among the thorn and bramble
bushes." "If you think so," said the
father, "we will leave the common di
rectly," so once more he got into the
turnpike road.
Not long after, he took his son into a
large garden, where abundance of fruit
and flowers grew. This pleased the
boy very much, but, after a time, lie
once more cried out to his father, " I do
not see that we are much nearer the vil
lage than we were before, and we shall
never get there while we stop in this
garden, that is certain."
"That being the case," said the father,
it will be very foolish for us to idle
array our time here any longer ;" so get
ting again into the turnpike road, he
went straight forward to the village.—
On returning home again, the son began
to question his father. " Father, what
made you go into the garden and among
the brambles and thorn bushes, when
the only way to get to the village wa s
to keep straight along the turnpike
road

Any person having used Queensware or China
fora number of yearn, will notice the general dote
rioration in the quality—this is owing to the great
ly reduced prices. In souse of the manufactories
where a good name has been established, and pride
taken in their character, no such inferiority is ob

to sell .r wares as low as any quality, whether
equal or inferior, can be sold in the U. 8.
There is a prejudice against Chesnut Street,
raised fr.on a false notion of higher prices. Our
rents on this street are lowa' than on any other
business street, and nothing else could possibly
make a difference. But no house can succeed
here that doe, not keep the best qualities of goods
and this does not suit all—hence the prejudice.

on things divine. He was an exceeding

the Sophs began to be seriously affected,
when the gentleman made his appear

whom all knew to be a large man all

moved about in the desk, many a jest

the expense of the reverend boy. When,
therefore, he mounted the " temporary

"It is I, be not afraid !" the ludicrous-
ness of the idea of being afraid of " such

and they burst into a roar of laughter,
while more than one of the professors
furtively united in the chorus.

S the great Evacuation for the impuri.
I
ties of the body. Life cannot be RIR•
tamed without it. It is thrown offfrom the
blood and other juices of the body, and
disposes by this means of nearly all the
impurities within us. The language of
scripture, , 4 in the blood is the life."—
If it ever becomes impure it may be
traced directly to the stoppage of the
1 4 insensible perspiration." Thus we
see all that is necessary when the blood
is stagnant or infected, is to open the
pores and it relieves itself from all im
purity instantly. Its own heat and vi
tality are sufficient, without one particle
of medicine, except to open the pores
upon the surface. Thus we see,the folly
of taking so much internal remedies.—
All practitioners, however, direct their
efforts to restore the insensible perspira
tion. The Thompsonian, for instance,
steams; the Hydropathist shrouds fix
wet blankets ; the Homoeopathist deals •
out infintissitnals; the Ailopathist bleeds
and doses us with mercury, and the
blustering Quuck gorges us with pills.
I have had physicians, learned in the
profession, I have had ministers of the
Gospel, Judges of the Bench, Aldermen
and Lawyers, gentlemen of the highest
erudition, and multitudes of the poor,
use it in every variety of way, and there
has been but one voice—one united,
universal voice—saying, ‘, M'Allister
your Ointment is good."
CONISUDIPTION..—It Can hardly be cred
ited that a salve can have any elect
upon the lungs, seated as they are with
in the system. But if placed upon the
chest, it penetrates directly to the lungs,
separates the poisonous particles that
are consuming them, and expels them
from the system. I need not say that
it is curing persons of Consumption con
tinually, although we are told that it is
foolishness. I care not what is said, so
long as I can cure several thousand per
sons annually.
HEADACHE.--TllO salve has cured per.

ing, and who had it regularly every week,
so that vomiting often took place.
Deafness and Ear ache are helped
with like success.
COLD FEET.—Consumption, Liver Com
plaint, pains in the Side or Chest, falling
off the hair, one or the other, always
accompanies cold feet. It is a sure sign
of disease in the system to have cold feet.
The Salve will cure every case in
Scrofula, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum, Liver
Complaint, Sore Throat, Bronchitis,
Broken or Sore Breast, Piles, Chest Dis

Burns.--It is the best thing in the
world for Burns, (Read the directions
around the box.)
Pimples on the face, Masculine Skin,
Gross Surf ace.—W hen there is grossness
or dull repulsive surface, it begins to
soften until the skin becomes as smooth
and delicate as a child's.
Worms.—lf purents knew how fatal
most medicines were to children taken
inwardly, they would be slow to resort
to them. Especially mercurial lozew
ges,' called medicated lozenges,' veil . -
miluges," pills,' &c. The truth is, no
one can tell, invariably, when worms
are present. Now let me say to parents,
that this salve will always tell if a child
has worms. It will drive every vestige
of them away. (Read the directions
around the box.) There is probably no
medicine on the face of the earth at
once so sure and so safe in the expel-
sion of worms.
OLD SORES.—That some sores are an
outlet to the impurities of the system,
is because they cannot pass off through
the natural channels of the Insensible
Perspiration. If such sores are healed
up, the impurities must have some other
outlet, or it will endanger life. This
salve will always provide for such emer
gency.
RIIEUMATISIC—AImost every case cu
red with this ointment.
FEVERS.—In all cases of fever, the
difficulty lies in the pores being locked
up so that the heat and perspiration can
not pass off. if the least moisture could
be started, the crisis has passed and the
danger is over. The all-healing oint
ment will in all cases of fevers almo s t
instantly unlock the skin and bring s
forth the perspiration.
We have cured cases of Scald Head that
defied every thing known, as well as the
ability of fifteen or twenty doctors.—
One man told us he had spent $5OO en
his children without any benefit, when a
few boxes of the ointment cured then
