Cube fob Weak Sight. —An elderly gentleman accustomed to “indulge,” entered the room of a certain inn, where sat a grave friend by the fire. Lifting a pair of green spectacles upon his forehead, rubbing his inflamed eyes, and calling for hot brandy-and-water, he complained to his friend that “his eyes were getting weaker and weaker, and that even spectacles didn’t seem to do them any g00d,,” “ I’ll tell thee, friend,” replied the quaker, “ what I think ;if thee was 'to wear they spectacles ovee thy mouth for a few months thy eyes weuld get round again.” Holloway’s Ointment and Pills.—Eelease ebom emeumatism. —Elieumatism is nearly related to gout, to both of which many are horn with ah hereditary predisposition. To such, cold and damp weather usually brings an attack; but its severity may be mitigated, and its duration shortened by Holloway’s soothing Ointment and purifying Pills. The painful, swollen and inflamed joint is soon relieved by the proper application of this cooling Ointment, while the Pills reduce the active fever, moderate excessive action of the heart, and restore tranquility to circulation and nerves. These restorative remedies have subdued the most unfavourable cases of acute and chronic rheumatism after every other means had failed, and the sufferer had in despair abandoned fill hope. — (Advt.)
