    Purging a Mistake. -m****5&- N our judgment many persons have done, and are constantly doing themselves great injury by the too free use of Purgative Pills, and other harsh, Cathartic Medicines, the use of which invariably tends to weaken :or constipate the bowels, often inducing Piles, Chronic Diarrhoea, &c. A medicine that simply purges and passes out of the system can do no good, and it is a great mistake to suppose that scouring one’s inside out improves the general health, or is of benefit in any respect. Much greater benefit is likely to be had from small non-purga¬ tive doses of Carter's Liver Pills, which induce a regular habit of body, prevent constipation, and leave the bowels in a healthy and natural condition. Legal Points. •a****-®- If a note be lost or stolen it does not release the maker ; he must pay it. A note given by a minor is void. Each individual in a partnership is responsible for the whole amount of debts of the firm The acts of one partner bind all the others. A receipt for money paid is not legally conclusive. It is not legally necessary to say on a note “ for value received,” and a note drawn on Sunday is void. A note obtained by fraud, or from a person in a state of intoxication, cannot be collected. Signatures made with a lead pencil are good in law. Contracts made on Sunday cannot be enforced.
