that the otigiu of .lottit's Life Medicines
was the result of a protracted an1d painful ill.
nessoftheirorignater,. lr JohnMotat When
taken ill. Mr. 51. was a prosperous and flour
ishing merchant in the lower part of the city of
Now York; and having coasiled and employed
a nuinber of our insost skilful physicians ie.
after moett. of suaTering. was prevailed upon
to purchease the recipe of' rhe invaliable vege
tabeu preparation now offered to the public.
The eitfeet of the Life .Mledirineis in his own
case was so siigular and remarkable. that he
itnnediately determined to ofler to the world u
medicine tu which he nit only owed his hjae.
but his happeineme. The aniform suecess nhoch
has siisce attended their adeniinistration in eve
instance. where a fair trial has been given

operatiots of farming said he. must be car
ried forw.ardI by mneans of Iabor. What
ever thercfore cana help to facibtate labor,
or increase its power. deserves the anxious
attention of the farmer. We will suppose
a case. Farmer Thrifty purchasedl an
axe for which hto paid two dlollars, and a
banedle for which he gavo 2.5 eta., both
made by skillful workmen, having speelal
care in puatting the handle in to tim axe,
and doing this little af'air he applied to a
joiner, a near neighbor of his and paid sixI
ecs. for the '-joh"-thus yout will see that
th: axe cost in all 2dollars and 0O1 ci.
This ate hung so true that one could
strike fifty times in the same place with
out missing the mark.
Capt. Thoulaiess, a neighbor of farmer
T.. also purchased an axe of rather an or
dinary quaily, paid fur the same I dollar
and 33 ets., he also bought a handle which
was a littile crooked for 6 ets., and put
the handle into the axe himelf; price of

Farmer Thrifty and Capt. Thoughtless
had each a woodpile of about equaal size

and it cost Capt. Thoughtless 13 day's
