OWING to the largo amount of Counterfeit Taiti Killer put up and sold a* genuine by unprinciplod men we bar© been obliged to resort to very expensive measure* to protcct ourselves pecuniarily, and the public from great injury, buving and using thoir worthless counterfeits..*fhe comparative plain and simple itylo in which our Pain Killer has been put up, has maio it very easy for thoeo disposed, to imitate it very eucceesfully, bo far as ita external appearance, in etylo of bottle, label and color ol" the article; but wc need not say that the compouud is a miserable, filthy production, snd calculatcd to do grpat injury to those who might uso it with confidence that thev have been accustomed to use the genuine Pain Killer. Parties whoa? bueiross it is to counterfeit r&luablo preparationa, do it in bo uecrct a man- ner. that it ia almost useless to attempt to punish them hy legal meacures. as it ia difficult. !!Ul we might eay imposeiblo to bring proof liotnc to them. Considering the great difficulty in protect ing ourselves and the public by prosecuting parties, we hare been to a very great expense in getting up a finely exeutcd STEEL ENGRAVED LABEL, for our bottles. We also attach to our bottles a Steel engraved Note of hand, which we issue as our obligation, and to counterfeit which is held to be forgery by the laws of tho United States, and which parties will not dafo attempt to do. Tho great exppnr.c attending the getting up and printing of these labels will prevent the attempt to counterfeit, thus securing to the public I hat the article thev purchase is the genuine Perry Davib' Pain killer, manufactured by Perry Davis & Son, 6olc proprietors. The Pain Killer will be put in a new style of nannl bottle, with fhi> wnrdrf Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer, blown in the Glass. We have discontinued the use of the 37+ cent# bottles, and now put np only four eizfiB, viz: at 12J, 25, 50 cents and $1 00 per bottle. We have also ft very tine engraving on Stoue, for tho liox labels, hpeeitying the contents of the box, where and by whom manufactured, tL'C. We have also added to our pamEhlet of directions and certificates," a .cover eautifully finished, preseu'.ing on the flint page a very"excellent likeness of Perry Davis, tho original inventor of the Pain Killer. The -. i_v_i . .t. i vwbiv iuwcio, otiu uuc lauci uu cucii uuj, nan also a corroet likeness of Perrv Davis, which it will beimposeible to counterfeit successfully. We have been to this expense, that the public might, haro perfect confidence that they were getting the genuine article when they buy a buttle as above described. To those who have; so long used and proved the merits of our article, wo would any that we shall continue to prepare out Pain Killer of the bebt and purest materials and that it shall be every wuy worth}- of their approbation an a family medicine.

    -^=rmWhon I Saw Sweet Nelly Home.

    In tho sky the bright stars glittered.On the grass the moonlight fell.

    Hushed the sound of daylight's bustle,3 Glosed the pinlc-eyed pimpernell, jAs down the moss-growa wood-path.Where the cattlc love to roam.,

    From aunt Pattie's quilting party jI was seeing Kelly home. 1

    Jetty ringlets softly flutteredO'er a brow white as snow,

    Ana ner cnec-us:.tfco crimson sunset.Scarcely bad a warmer glow; (

    Mid her parted lips' Vermillion, 11"White teeth flashed like ocean's foam, !1

    All I marked with pulses throbbing.An I taw (Tweet Nelly home

    When tho Autumn tinged tho greenwood,Turning all tho leave6 to gold, ,

    In the lawn by aiders shaded, ]I my love to Nelly told ;

    As we stood together gazingOn tho atar-beapangled dome, ^

    How I blest tho August eveningWhen I saw sweet Nelly home.

    "White hairs mingle with my tressee.Furrows steal upon ray brow, _

    But a love tmile checrj and blcsaoLife's docliniug moments now;

    Matron in a enow 'kerchief,Closer to my bosom come.

    Tell me dost thou still rememberWhen I Paw sweet Nelly home?
