the selections of the most interesting publications
of the day—the brief novels—the piquant stories
—the sparkling wit and amusing anecdote—the
news and gossip of the Parisian papers—the per
sonal sketches of public characters—the stirring
scenes of the world we live in—the chronicle of
the news for ladies—the fashions and fashionable
gossip—the facts end outlines of news—the pick
of English information—the wit, humor and pa
thos of the times—the essays on life, literature,
society and morals, and the usual variety of
careful thoosings from the wilderdess of English
periodical literature, criticism, poetry, etc.—sev
eral new and attractive features of remarkable
interest will enrich and give value to the work.

but in some instanees accepting the agency of it
to facilitate its introduction into more general use
by the Faculty.
The influence of this composition open the fe

tear in its one for any length of time, for it con
tain any mercury, nor any article which con
plove in any way injurious, being made entirely
of vegetable extracts, and prepared to taste like
a pleasant cordial. _ .
'Phe mod. verandi of this remedy, in the cure
of this class of diseases, is through the general
economy of the system, with the peculiar deter
mination to the female organs.
ADDITIONAL PROOF of this Oath°'icon
being worthy of the confidencc of the afflicted, as
a Successful, Safe and Cheap Remedy, will be
found in the pamphletf together with important
observations touching the native and symptoms
of the diseases, to which the attention of Ladies
and Practitioners is respectfully invited.
