AS TOLD BY HORATIO SEYMOUR.

Accused of of Owning an Interest in Hall
the Liquor Saloons in Utica.
Speaking of Horatio Seymour, the
old politician was reminded of the fol-
lowing anecdote, which, he asserted,
the governor used to tell on himself:
_“I had just taken my seat in the rail-
way carriage when I noticed tWO min-
isterial looking men in front of me,”
mid the governor. “ ‘Do you know this
Horatio Sevmour?’ asked one. ‘No,'
came the answer, ‘althoughd have
seen him.’ ‘Have you? Then I pray
you to tell me how he looks!’ ‘Well.
he looks what he, is—a great drunkard,’ '
answered the man who had seen the
governor. ‘Ah,’ said the. questioner.
sadly, ‘it’s a great’pity‘that he should
be governor. I understand he owns an
interest in more than half the rum
shops in Utica.’ ‘Yes,’ was the re-
spouse; ‘and he has to look out for
them in the morning, 'as he is always
too drunk in the afternoon to attend
to that or- any other business. I
pricked up my ears,” concluded the
governor, “for I was curious to know
what had caused these two to go for
me so severely. Presently I discov-'

r

 

ered. ‘Have you seen his Thanksgiv-
ing proclamation?’ aske-d'one. ‘Yes.
I and I think it scandalous indeed.’ ‘So
do I.’ And yet‘that proclamation was
written by the rector of the leading
Episcopal Church in Albany. ”—-—Utica

Brandre” ’s Pills
The difference between these pills _and all other medicines is
told in the following statement of facts;

Ist. They have been in active demand in the markets of the' world since I770,
or for nearly one hundred and thirty years.

2d. They are purely vegetable, and are made of the purest and highest
class drugs obtainable.

3d. They'nre kept for two years in our storehouses after being made, and
no pills are sold until they are TWO YEARS old. This allows them to
become thoroughly mellowed and makes of them the Very best
and safest cathartic medicine that it is possible to procure.

4th. They never become inurcd to the system; that is, the same dose
will always produce the same effect. This cannot truthfully be said
of any other medicine. There are others who claim. it, but
demonstrations show it to be true only of BRANDRETH'S PILLS.

5th. They never produce griping or pain unless the stomach is ima very
acid condition. and then only if the dose1s a large one. In doses of
one or two pills they never cause pain or other inconvenience.

6th. One pill taken after a heavy meal will relieve distress immediately.

7th. BRANDRETH'S PILLS are composed one-third of the best extract of sarsa-
parilla that can be made. It is highly concentrated and it makes of these
pills the best blood purifiers that you can get, one 25-cent box con-
taining more of the active blood-purifying principle of sarsaparilla
than a dollar’ 5 worth of any liquid preparation in the market.

8th. One or two, taken every night, will cure rheumatism in almost every
instance. '

9th. They areia posxtive and effective remedy for constipation and for all the

long list of ills that follow in its wake--such as dyspepsia, dizziness,

' drowsiness, coated tongue, foul breath, headache pain in the stomach,

etc. Take one or two pills every night-one Is usually enough—and

be certain that a cure will follow.

They are thebest complexion pills. After you have taken them for a

few nights, your skin will assume a wholesome, healthful color, your

eye a brilliant lustre, and sallowness and pimples will disappear.

BRANDRETH’S PILLS NEVER injure—you are always in- better health

after taking a dose—they are the safest medicine to give children and

Women in delicate health. Onepill is usually sufficient.

No medicine is made with such infinite care as BRANDRETH’S PILLS

-—no medicine but BRANDRETH’S PILLS is kept for TWO YEARS before

they are boxed to be sold. .

Except in sudden and acute si¢kness, when the dose should be from

four toe icht pills. the best results are obtained by taking one or two

pills every night for a week or tn 0. They act on the liver and leave

that organ in a perfectly healthy state, and when your liver is right

your blood} is pure, and you are well. Don' t bully vour liver with

powerful medicine, but cos: it with BRANDRETH’ s PILLS.
