Sneatly printed. (in the office of the Chif,

gives evidence of a commendable

tober number of this favorite musical
journal begins the seventh volume. The
"Visitor" has worked its way to the front
of the American art journals, and its
success is lnmainly dlco to two principles,
not efinlcult to understand. First, it is ti
trell conducted, anld is an independent 1'
critic sliad nmunsical educator, employing
the obest writers in iti literary depart- d
nmeuts; and second, it gives the pnople p
many returns in actual cash value for the It
subscription money, in its music pages. rn
The October number contains ive iieces o
of beautinul now music, vocal and in- n
strumno utal. This alone, in sheet form, ft

can use it without immediate relief.
Three doses will relieve any case, and we
consider it thu duty of all Druggists to re
commend it to the poor dying consump

IHQUS PAINTER'S COLORS
We beg to invite the special .attention
ofDealers and Consumers to these
PAINTb. They are manufactured from
the very BEST AND CHOICEST PIG
MENTS, and mixed orthinned with only
STRICTLY PURE Linseed Oil and Tur
pentine, and they cannot he excelled in
covering capacity, durability, finenes, anil
beauty of finish. They will neitber
chalk, flake, or pot o*, and work with
perfect freedom under thd brush. They:
weigh from 15 to 16 its per gallon, which,
of itself, POSITIVELY demonstratee their
purity and superiority.
The various compounds known in tli
market as Chemical Paints, contain onay
eabour 50 per cent. of Paint; the balacee
is water, introduced into the atme b? the
use of an alkali, to combine it. The
last mentioned Paint., ao-called, only
weigh from 9 to 10 lbs per gallon, which
we think certaiInly prove. their lack of
capacity or body. When water is mix
ed with Paint, it not only destroys its
body, but, to a very great extent, its ad
hesivenese, which all practical men know
is of the highest importance to preserve
in order to make a durable Paint,
We think, from the statement we bave
made, that buyers cannot fail to as ONCE
perceive that their interest will be best
p'omoted by bnying oar Liquid Pahint
i. e. Pure Paints), in preference to the
so-called Paie..s referred to.
