The Blast of the Trumpet.

After listening to a sermon from T. De Witt Talmage, 7'Ae Christian Jntclligencer said: “Surely the great trumpet was blown that night with no uncertain sound; and if any one who listened to its blast never heard Christ’s Gospel before, they heard it then, with fullness, and sweetness, and power. The secret Of 1 lie Tabernacle preacher’s success evidently lies in his natural endowments, Ills bold and faithful Gospel, and still more in his bloodearnestness.” The sermons and articles of Mr. Til!mage, are furnished now only, Jo The Christian tfe H’orA-, of which he has become editor Mr. Spurgeon also writes regularly for it, and for no ocher journal in America.

Capsules, stating that sometimes they cured miraculously, but that a patient of hia had taken them lor some time without effect. On being informed that several inviatious were made and sold, he inquired and found that his patient had been taking caps ills sold in bottles, and not DUNDAS DICK A CO’S. What happened to thi» physician mav have happened to others, and DUNDAS DICK A CO. take this method of protecting physicians, druggists and themselves, and preventing On. of Sandalwood from coming into disrepute. PHYSICIANS who once prescribe the Capsules will continue to do so, for they contain the pure Oil in the best and cheapest form. DUNDAS DICK & CO. use more Oil or Sandalwood in the manufacture of their Capsules than all tbe wholesale and Retail Druggists and perfumers in the United States combined, and this the sole reason why the pure Oil is sold cheaper in their Capsules than in any other form. OIL OF SANDALWOOD is last superseding every other remedy, sixty Capsules only being required to insure a safe and certain cure in six or eight days. From no other medicine can this result be had. Dick’s Soft Capsules solve the problem long considered by many eminent physicians, of how to avoid the nausea and disgust experienced in swallowing, which are well known to detract from, if not destroy, the good effects of many valuable remedies. Soft Capsules are put up in tin-foil and neat boxes, thirty in each, and are the only Capsules prescribed by Physicians. ©Jr These were the only Capsules admitted to tbe last Paris Exposition.
