But our active practitioners, now in the hey-day of life, neeel not bo discouraged. Existing ; conditions are more favorable V to longevity than in the time of our old bar when , Kinny, Moore Heath and Tom Jones letl the practice in. the Albe marle district. We have better hotels now than then, the facil ities of travel are greater, and the work ia not so laborious now as then, because it is a longer elivision, and the law is a less complicate science now than then, and human life is Faiil to bo more prolonged now than then, thanks to medical skill and knowledge.

If a house is cold new. turniture won't warm it. If your strength is easily ex hausted; ' work a burden; nerves weak; digestion poor; muscles soft; if you are pale and worn out, the trouble is with the blood. It is not so much IMPURE blood as POOR blood. Pills won't make this blood rich ; nor will bitters, nor iron tonics, . any more than a new. harness will give strength to the horse, or new furniture will make a house warm. For poor b!ood you want something that will make rich blood. ! SCOTT'S EMULSION of Cod-liver Oil with Hypophcs phitcs is the best remedy in the world for enriching the blood. hxvt prrpri boclc leHin yc. rr.ic iut the v:bj-:ct.
