The Ead and Worthless are never imitated or counterfeited. This is especially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As goon as it had been tested acd proved by tie whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best and rooEt 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 tbe mftritß of H. B, 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 insiailar style to H. 8., with variously devised nameß in which the word " Hop " or " Hops " were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Bop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially those with the word "Hop" or "Hops" in their name or in any waj connected with them or their came, are imitations or counterfeits Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of preen Hops on the "while libel, and Dr Soule's name blown in theglaSß. Trust nothing else. Druggists and Chemists are warned against dealing in imitations or counterfeit?.

A Scoidiug Woman—The barbarities of the ducking-stool for the cure ot scolding women, though abolished by law, are now oftentimes practised by a kind of social barbarity Don j the less reprehensible.
