NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS.— In many instances 

 Remittances in Payment of Repeat Advertisements are 

 received without name, address, or anything beyond the 

 postmark on envelope by which to identify the sender ; this 

 in all cases causes a very great deal of trouble, and fre- 

 quently the sender cannot be identified at all. 



Advertisers are requested when Remitting to give their 

 Names and Addresses, and also a Reference to the Adver- 

 tisement which they wish repeated. 



POSTAL ORDERS.— To Advertisers, Subscribers, and 

 Others.— It is very important in Remitting by Postal Order 

 that it should be filled in payable at No. 13, DRL'RY LANE, 

 to W. RICHARDS, as, unless the number of a Postal Order is 

 known, and it has been made payable at a particular office, and 

 to a particular person, it is impossible to prevent any person 

 into whose hands it may fall from negotiating it. 



N.R. -The best and safest means of Remitting is by POST- 

 OFFICE MONEY ORDER.

HOLLO WAY'S PILLS.— In bilious disorders, 

 sick headache, indigestion, and affections of Od- nen es. 

 these famous Pills, now highly appreciated in all quarters of 

 the world, are regarded as a perfect remedy. They purify 

 the blood, regulate the secretions, give tone to the stomach, 

 restore the appetite, and renovate the system. After a course 

 of these Pills, the once emaciated and feeble patient is so 

 changed that his friends are both wonder-stricken and delighted. 

 These cheap preservatives of life and health are a blessing to 

 mankind. It would be hardly possible to overstate the good 

 that they have effected in diseases which, through maltreatment 

 or neglect, had gained such a ma=teryover the sv^tem that 

 their eradication seemed perfectly hopeless.
