.DEATH STREET. (advektisement.) (Continued,.) Let us suppose the whole of this • population turned into the street™ 1.000.000 paupers, 700.000 drunkards say 300 000 crimi:<iil*. 300,000 vagrants, ami *ay 70 00" lunatics. Tf" rhese were placed thr-e üb-ea-t. nnd two yards apart they would f'-rm a proccsnioii which would reach th»; whole length of the street— 040 miU'S from Land's Kmi to John p' Uroats Hut thfre would be another procession necessary, and if impossible, oue even Pti!l more awful heartrending-. I have said that 120,000 premature deaths occur yearly through drink Let us picture the de- d being- carried along the street to their last re «ti noplaces, and supposing each funeral procession extending twenty yards, then there would be a procession of ! fimernlf C4O miles long. Just pause and think of it, Christian men and worn- n 'Ih ink upon such a street being possible in Groat Britain. Think upon the picture of that weeping, howling 1 , cursing, Taring multitude. Think upon the '♦ far-off l.md " in our midst, where prayer is not, and thn Bible is n>t, and love but husk 9 and slavery ch.iius. Ponder it and weep, if byV lf i' ess apathy ye have donp nothing- to lessen its agony of woes. This street of death, skirted by the highest forms of civilization and Christian trmples, whosa bells ring death-knells to their hopes; and stately mansions where delicate women sip their wine and call it nectar, and cultured men caieh glimpses through the windows, and talk grandly of social ■■prbblMns and the degraded masses, and then lounge and drink and talk again j by school within whose walls they learnt and stulind, until drink came and blasted the promise oi their youth. To be continued.
THE BAD AND WORTHLESS are never imitated or coun forfeited. This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it had been tested aud proved by the whole that Hop Bitters was the parest, best and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B. Many others started nostrums put up in similar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word "Hop" or " Hops" were used iv a way to induce people to believe they were the same ax Hop Bitters. AH such pretended remedies cr cures, no matter what their style or name is, nnd especinlly those with the word " Hop" or " Hops" in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, an> imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Hitters, with a bunch or cluster of gre.en Hops on the «rhite label, and Dr Soule's name blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeits.
