Holloway's Ointment and Pills. —Bad Legs.—Any unnatural discharge from the skin is at all times disagreeable, but in hot weather it becomes irritating—sometimes offensive. Bad legs, .old wounds, scrofula, and scorbutic eruptions arc-cooled, soothed, and cured by Holloway’s Ointment It at once arrests all diseases of the surface by--purifying and regulating the circulation in their neighbourhood, by giving energy to the nerves of the affected part, and by expelling all poisonous and noxious matters. It ejects the seeds of all virulent eruptions and ulcerations, and thus confers no partial or temporary boon but a complete and permanent cure. By means of those remedies all sufferers may aim at attaining he«kh s and will invariably succeed. Well-dressed M OTj. —Among those habitual errors of conduct which are common in both careful and careless persons, not one is more often met with than disregard r.f the advantages derivable from being well die -ed; yet whoever lives observantly in such a County as Patea. is soon convinced that this mistake is fruitful of mischievous results. All of us instinctively judge from first impressions; we proceed from the exterior to lire interior; a well-dressed man gratifies our fondness for beauty and our appreciation of neatness: and. there is no one. however cynical or unobservant, but is pleased when a well-dressed person, even if a stranger, passes by, and disposed to think favorably of him. This universal disposition cannot safely be offended. To be habitually a sloven is to constantly, though unconsciously, offend numerous persons, among whom t he favour of some may be valuable; and therefore a shrewd man is not content to make himself neat now and then, but always will appear well dressed. He keeps his clothes in good order, and is careful n the selection of a tailor. In bringing this maxim before public notice, R. A. Adams, Cardigan House, is gratified by remembering that the disposition of a great many of his customers to armour in public well dressed has been met by the comoinafion in his goods of selection, material, good fit. and low price. He obtains his cloths in the most advantageous markets; be employ.? first-class cutters and workmen; he avoids obsolete fa-hions; and he is content with moderate profits in the place of the exorbitant percentage which only a few years ago was universal, and still is frequent in the tailoring trade. His gloves, hats, shirts, hosiery, ties, and scarfs, are also such a? will please the most fast idiou <. Whatever experience, capital, care, and good taste can effect on the tradesman's .side, is done by 11. A. Adams, in order that all his customers may .realise the substantial advantages of being well-dressed; and that his efforts give sati.faction, is shown by the rapid and steady increase' in the number of those who deal with him. Attentive to (he changes of costume necessitated by varying seasons, and of style by the dictates of fashion, 11. A. Adams has now on hand a large and carefully selected stock of cloths suitable for all.season-.—ll. A. ADAMS Cardigan House, Carlyle.— advt.
