The stove to which we invite most especial attention is the justly ce'ebrated

DOUBLE! COOK STOVE which isdecidely superior toany Stove ever invented. Why/ Btcause the.heat has the shortest space to both oven nnd the whole width of the stove at once around the ovens and will bake at once and equal in both, and by having two distinct and separate ovens in the same store, dtflVrent articles can be baked at the same time which could not be done in a single oven which tends to great economy in fuel, and at the same time all other culinary operations can be performed as well as on any other stove, Those in want oT such an article would do well to call and examine price and quality, before sending to a distance lor an inferior arne'e.

We have also, the PIICENIX PltEXIVM COOK STOVE, (latent and moM approved patterns)

IMPORTANT TO PARENTS!

WINER'S

CANADIAN VERMIFUGE,

A CERTAIN REMEDY FOR WORMS. THIS medicine is safe in'its operation and more easily administered than any other.

The greatest cause of death nmong children is tn be attributed to Worms. They give rise to numerous diseases. and are the more fatal because the least suspected were parents to give this subject more attention, and carefully observe the symptoms which indicate the existenceof worms in the bowels, the lives of many chit• dren would no doubt be saved. Some of the symptoms are as follows the countenance is of a pale, or a leaden color, and suffused with occasional flushes, the eves are heavy and dull, bad breath, itching in the nostrils, ihe sleep is disturbed, the patient often awakening in great fright, and is liable to starling and grinding the teeth, the appetite is irregular, being sometimes voracious and at other times feeble, occasional vomiting, &c.

Winer's Canadian Vermifuge has acquired a reputation far exceeding that of any other medicine of the kind, and is daily increasing in popularity wherever it is known and used it is universally approved it possesses properties which no other article of the kind does, it is more prompt and efficient in its action, and entirely free from engredients which have any but a beneficial effect, the health of the patient being always improved even when no Worms are discovered. Physicians prescribe it, and to use the Isnguage of one in high standing, who rrsides in Cleveland, Ohin, consider it "the only article of the kind he ever saw that was so uniform and prompt in expelling worms," it may indeed be relied on with the ujmost confidence, as it has never been know to fait, this is the reason why all who have used it will not use any other.

We have in our possession a number of certificates from physicians and others ol the highest respectability, who all testily to its superior efficacy and recommend it as a never failing remedy.

READ AND BE CONVINCED.

We. the undersigned, have frequently administered medicine prepared by Mr John Winer of this town, designated "J. Winer'sCsnadion Vermifuge." snd being fully satisfied with its efficacy, confidently recommend it ss a safe and efficient remedy for the expulsion of worms from the intestinal canal.
