PUNCTUALITY AT DEA TH. Mr. Higgins was a very punctual man in all his transactions through life. He amassed a large property by untiring in dustry and punctuality, ard at the ad vanced age of ninety years was resting quietly upon his bed and waiting calmly to be called away. He had deliberately made every arrangement for his decease and burial. His pulse grew fainter and the light of his life seemed just flicker ling into the socket, when one of hissons i observed : "Father, you will have but a day or 'two; is it not well to name your bear ers?" " To bo sure, my son," said the dying man ; "it is well thought of and I will do it now." He gave a list of six, the usual num ber, and sank back exhausted upon his pillow. A gleam of thought passed over bis withered face like a ray of light, and he rallied once more. "My son, read me that list. Is the name of Mr.' Wiggins there V" " It is, my father." "Then strike it off!" said he, em phatically ; " for he was never punctual, was never anywhere in season, and he might hinder the procession a whole hour !''

How much we owe to California ! Her pre -cious metals have enriched thousands of our fellow citizens, and have proved the main stay of America in times of national pecuniary embarrassment. Her mining industries have given employ ment to myriads of mechanics and labor ers. She is the land of promise to the fortune seeker. But the Golden State Las lately sent us a new treasure. Her last nugget is Dr. Walker's Califor nia Vinegar Bitters. The health giving principles contained in this cur ative are a more precious boon than gold. In all affections of the liver and stomach, remittent and intermittent fevers, rheumatism, and pulmonary dis eases, it may be relied upon. As a blood depurent and invigorant it is unequaled, purifying the circulation and infusing new vigor into the debilitated frame. It conqners that most unyielding of all complaints dyspepsia, and we know of no otner remedy that can accomplish this. Its entire freedom from alcoholic j spirit, which retards and neutralizes the enect of any medicine, and which forms the basis of many of the pseudo bitters and tonics, doubly enhances its value to the sick. The papers of the United Stategi vie with one another in doing hoijT to Dr. Walker. We, too, add our voice, and say, all honor to the man whose science and skill have enabled him to draw from the vegetable king dom such a balsam for human suffering. A method to ascertaining with cer tainty when death has taken place, has been promulgated by Dr. Danis. It is th2 denudation and section of an artery, which of course will be empty if the heart is dead. The temporal artery is that suggested as the best for the pur pose, on account of its proximity to the surface, and the slight degree in which it retracts. The Excelsior Magazine, a very choice and entertaining monthly, ia published at 3.50 a year. Every effort ia being made by securing the services of the most brilliant contributors to periodical literature ana the best art critics and essayists to furnish a highly desirable family paper. A handsomely illustrated fashion and eti quette supplement accompanies it Subscribers are very easily obtained, and rare inducements in money or prizes are of fered to getters-up of clubs .

Address Keed's Temple of Music, Chicago. Receipt for .Making Dr. Sage's Catarrh lUmcdy autl Or. Pierce's Uoldea medi cal Discovery; Something over a year since, a periodical issued in Berlin, Prussia, and laying claims toa scientific character, published what was repre sented as boing the formulie or receipts for making Dr. Sage's Catarrh Iiemedy and Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery. The people were left to infer that these had been deducted from a careful chemical analysis of the medicines, which are rapidly growing in popular favor in that as well as u this and most other civilized countries. The receipts were evidently invented by those jealous of the refutation and large sale which these medicines are rapidly acquiring and who are pecuniarily interested in endeavoring to check their sale. So ridiculously preposterous are those receipts that medicines compounded after them could never have gained any repu tation or sale iu any country, for they would be so caustic, poisonous, immediately and posi tively injurious, as in every case to be prompt ly condemned by the people on the first trial as miserable, dangerous and wicked humbugs. Whereas, it ia a well-known fact hat all my medicines enjoy the reputation, nonestly earn ed, of being not only efficacious, but perfectly mild, pleasant and harmless in effects. Not withstanding, however, that the bogus receipts were so ridiculously preposterous as scarcely to have been believed by the most unscientific, thoughtless and unsuspecting people, yet strange and incredible as it may seem, a paper of high scientific pretensions, published in this country, copied the fictitious receipts from the German paper. This they evidently did with out a moment's reflection, for tnat much con sideration, given by an intelligent mind, to tho receipts and the properties and effects of the mixtures that would result from such a com pounding of well-known caustic and poisonous chemicals and drugs, would have condemned them as bogus fabrications, and the pretentious publishers of tbe paper that originally insarted them, as either knaves or fools. On my atten tion being called to the matter, in order tbat somo thoughtless and over-credulous people might not be deceived and misled by seeing such an announcement in a paper laying claim to a scientific character, as well as to clear my self of the imputation of being guilty of perpe trating a wicked fraud upon the people, as such announcement, if uncontradicted, would imply, I, as proprietor and manufacturer of the aforesaid celebrated medicines, went be fore a magistrate and made oath to the fact that the said receipts were utterly false. My affidavit was sent to the publishers of the pa per into which the bogus receipts had been copied, and in a subsequent issue an editorial notice was given of my denial. But, notwith standing such correction and denial, made un der oatu, certain individuals, who lounge around and infest our large cities, gaining a livelihood by perpetrating all kinds of catch penny frauds upon the credulous, were there by given the hint that, as my medicines wero universally popular, by advertising for sale bogus receipts for making them, thev could get lota of ignorant people to bite at their bait. One Frank M. lieed. of 139 Eighth street. New Ybrk. who publishes " Love and Courtship Cards," a " Fortune Teller and Dream Bok," 'The My8t3ries of Love Making." " How to Woo and how to Win." and various other swindles, sends his dupes the following in exchange for their stamps. It is copied from tbe papers alluded to and is as fol lows : ' For Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, take eight grains Carbolic Acid, seven grains of Camphor, and two and a half grains of common Sa.it, the whole to be colored with a little Prus sian blue." This makes a powerful caustic mixture as unlike Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy (which is perfectly unirritating, mild, soothing and pleasant) as light is from darkness. As "a burnt child dreads tho fire," if any have been so foolish as to have burned their noses sore with this caustic compound, thinking tbat they wero uieing the same as Jr. Hsje's cele brated Catarrh llemedy, they will, it ia to bo hoped.profit by the lesson thereby taught them and not bo so ready next time to bite at every catch-penny advertising dodge that swindlers may offer them. For Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery the bogus receipt reads : '"Take four drachms purified Honey, fifteen grains extract poisonous Lettuce, thirty grains of Opium, three and a fourth ounces dilute Spirits, three ounces water. Mix." Of the ridiculous bogus formula I will say, as I did under oath, not one of the medicinal or poison ous ingredients therein gicen en'ers into the composition ef my Golden Medical Discovery ! And furthermore. I will say that I defy all the chemists in the world to ascertain, by chemical analysis, tho composition of any of my Family Medicines, as they cannot be analyzed so as to determine tbeir ingredients, many of which are new iu meuicme anu. uko nearly an vogeianio extracts, there are no known reagents or chem- j ical tests by which their presence can be deter- j mined. If any further proof ia wanted to satisfy any person that the receipt given above is utterly false, let that person have the mix- ture, as given, compounded and, not only j will it be seen to be entirely unlike my Discov- ' ery in appearance, but if a further test is I wanted, by taking a dose of it. it will bo found i to produce drowsiness and atupor. whereas my Discovery, in ever so large doses, produces no i such effect. Others, located iu different cities and engaged iu advertising for sale bogus re ceipts for making my medicines, send those that bite at their bait other and various ridicu lous formula;. One sent out by a villainous knave, located in Chicago, gives the chief in gredient of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy as being Blue Vitriol, which ia cnlv equaled in absurdity by another issued ty parties in Phil adelphia who say that the ingredients compos ing Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy are "burnt Alum, white Vitriol, Sugar of Lead, and Prus siate of Iron," and that my Goldeu Medical Discovery is " simply Syrup and Tincture of Ginger." In refutation of all the various and ridiculous bogus receipts for making my medi cines that have ever been, or may hereafter be published and circulated, I would say that I have, in dealing with the people, ever been governed by the maxim that " honesty is the best policy," and that " success makes suc cess ;" for it is because some sufferer has ob tained relief and cure, and that sufferer has sent another to me ; and it is because thou sands have been cured that they have recom mended me and my superior remedies to other thousands of sufferers. In this way I am cou stantly making living advertisements for my self and medicines. It is a common thing to hear people say that plenty of advertising will make a success out of anything, whether it has any merit or not. Nothing could be far ther from the truth. It is with this delusive idea actuating them that thousands have rushed headlong into advertising, only to find themselves bankrupt in a little while. Not more than one in five hundred, who engages in advertising medicines, ever makes a finan cial success out of the undertaking, for the reason that a medicine to be successful must possess unusual and extraordinary merit. It is not enough that it should be a remedy of fair efficacy ; it must possess superior and wonder ful remedial properties, for if it does not, those who use it with the most sanguine ex pectations will condemn it. They will expect much of it, and it must be equal to the test, or it will prove ruinous to th3 proprietor. For, although a great display of advertising will, many times, create a considerable immediate demand for tiro article advertised, yet if that article does not possess real merit, the demand will be only temporary; the fraud will be de tected, and the reaction will upset the proprie tor and all his high expectations, long before he is able to recover .he amount of money already expended . With this view of the sub joct, I have felt warranted in contracting for hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of ad vertising in tho newspapers of this and other countries, feeling perfectly assured that the merits of my remedies were so great as to in sure a financial success out of such a bold undertaking. And in this I have not been dis appointed, Tor my sales have increased steadily year after year, until they will this year largely exceed half a million dollars' worth of my medi cines. This grand success, I am certain, could never havo been attained had the medicines not possessed superior and wonderful merits. Tho Toledo litade, in an editorial article, has truly said, alluding to my business, that "great success is never achieved without merit. Au article that holds the field year after year, and tho sales of which increase regularly and rapidly, must have absolute merit." The article continues : " Dr. B. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., occupies our entire eighth page to-day with his various articles. We ad mit it because we know the doctor, and know of his articles. We know him to be a regularly educated physician, whose diploma hangs on the wall of his office, and we know that he has associated with him several of the most eminent practitioners in the country. We know that parties consult him, by mail and in person, from all the States in the Union every day, and that they are fairly and hon estly dealt with We Know that his medicines are sold in enormous quantities in every State in the Union, and very largely in many foreign countries. " This grand result has been accomplished by two agencies good, reliable articles arti cles which, once introduced, work, easily, their own way and splendid business management. They have succeed because they ought to have succeeded." In conclusion, I cannot offer a better refuta tion of the slanderous reports published con cerning my medicines, then to call attention to the testimonials on file in my office, which are open to the inspection of the public. They are from all parts of tho world, and express the gratitude of thousands that have been afflicted with Chronic Catarrh, Lingering Coughs, vari ous Blood Diseases, affecting the skin, flesh and bones, severe diseases peculiar to females, and many other forms of obstinate diseases, and have been cured by the use of my Family Medicines, after suffering for yearB and being pronounced incurable bv eminent physicians.

A ouu il of able phy4icians c ulu give us but the aintest hope of nl ever raiding, two of the number de claring that he was beyond the reach of human emed cs, that even amputation could n- t save him, as he had not vigor enough to endure the operation. Just thon we commenced giving him Vf-uetin , and f.om that t.me to ttte present he has been continuously improving. Ho has lately resumed his studies, thrown away crutches and caen, and walks about heerful ana sir mg Thougn there is still oms discharge from the opening where his limn was lanced, we ave ths fulli st conndence that In a littlj t.me he will be perTet tly cured. He hs taken about three dozen bottt'os of VEGE TINE, but lately uses but little, as he aeca.es that lie is too well to be taking medicine. Uespectfully yours, B. . BEST, MB 3. L. V. F. BEST. Th? range of disorders whicU yield to the infla o ce of this medicine, and the number of denned diseases which it never fa Is to cure, are greater than any other single medicine t as hi her o been even re.ommended far, by any other than the pro prietors of some quack nostrum. These diseases are Scrofula and all.Eruptive diseases aud Tumors, Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgiu, and Spinal com plaints, aud all Inflammatory symptoms.

Tais is a formidable list of human a'lmonts for any stogie mod cine to successfully attach, and it is not probable that auy one article before the public has the power to cure the quarter of them except ngihe Vkoetink. It lays the ax at the root of the tree of disease by first el -initiating every impurity from the blood, promoting the secretl.iis.-opeiiiiig the pores the great escape valves jf the system invigorating the liver to its full and natural action cleansing the stomach and strengthening digestion.
