THE CRUCIAL TEST 
of the value of medicine is time. Does experi¬ 
ence confirm the Claims put forth in its favor at 
the outset? is the grand question. Apply this 
criterion, so simple, yet so searching, to TAR¬ 
RANT’S Effervescent Seltzer Aperient. 
How has it worn? What has been its history? 
> How does it stand to-day ? 
k Tarrant’s Seltzer Aperient is a household 
name throughout the United States. Itisadmin- 
i istered as a specific, and with success, in dys- 
' pepsia, sick headache, nervous debility, liver 
complaint, bilious' remittants, bowel complaints 
(especially constipation), rheumatism, gout, 
gravel, nausea, the complaints peculiar to the 
maternal sex, and'all types of inflammation. So 
mild is it in its operation that it can be given with 
perfect safety to the feeblest child; and so agree- 
aDle is it to the taste, so refreshing to the palate 
that children never refuse to take it.

This charming book is a companion volume to “ Household Elegancies” and tl Ladies Fancy TVork,” and superior 
in many respects. The contents are so practical, relating specially to housefumishing and furniture, (the other volumes 
were devoted to Elegancies and Fancy Work), and beautifully arrange all the rooms of the house, that no lady can well 
afford to be without it _ and the author, Mrs. C. S. Jones, has made it the most complete of any book on this subject in 
America. The same style of 
elegant engravings which has 
characterized the previous 
books of this Household series, 
is continued in “Beautiful 
Homes,” _ and with profuse 
jp sketches, it illustrates and de¬ 
scribes the following topics: 
Carpets , 
TVas h - Slands j
