He Was ? young man /of fine .instincts, good impulses, and courteous man? ners, popular with all, and highly es? teemed by his personal friends and but for tbe curse that lurks in the wine sap, would have realized the funcTwish of friends., aujd navejjecome (?ri ornamjeinttQ society^^Bnt?tUisJin sidiouerfi?bit of strong drink", "Tiad as is well known degenerated into a mania, a disease, that baffled all cura? tive treatment, as well as the dic t?tesrof his-betfer judgement, and the tender: entreaties and loving remon? strances of those who loved him best. Had the tempting saloon, and the glitter in pf cop not bave been licensed to spread their toils for his feet, this tragedy 'that? wilt prove a life long sorrow to so many stricken hearts, might have been averted, and a once promising young life would have not now been quenched in sorrow and in night.

When 'Compound Oxygen' ia inhaled, the heart bas imparted to it increased vitality. That organ sends forth the blood witt more force and less wear to itself ; the vital cor rents leave on their circuit new deposits of vital force in every cell of tissue over which they pass, and return again to the langs for a new supply. This isa rational explanation of the greatest advance medical science has yet made. 'The Compound Oxygen Treatment,' Drs Starkey & Palen, No. 1529 Arch Street. Phil? adelphia, have been using for the last sixteen years, isa scientific adjustment of the elements of Oxygen and Nitrogen magnetized, a-ad the compound is so condensed and made portable that it is sent all over the world. DRS. STARKEY & PALEN have the liberty -to refer (iaproof of tkeir.standing as Physicians) to the* following named well-known persons who have tried their Treatment : HON. WILLIAM D. KELLEY, .
