MEXICAN RESOURCES AND GUIDE TO MEXICO, by FREDERICK A. OBER. Boston: 1884, Estes & Lauriat; price 50 cents.
An elegantly printed and illustrated book in pamphlet form as a supplemental volume to "Travels in Mexico." The first part contains a map of Mexico and fifty-seven pages replete with valuable historical and statistical information, while the latter part (35 pages) is devoted to such information and description as makes a guide book invaluable. We are glad to see this book, and, for one reason, because so little comparatively is known of Mexico. To capitalists, miners and merchants, in fact to the general public we heartily commend this book.
A TOUCHING INCIDENT.
A YOUNG GIRL'S DEMENTIA—HOW IT WAS OCCASIONED—SOME NEW AND STARTLING TRUTHS.
The St. Louis express, on the New York Central road, was crowded one evening recently, when at one of the way stations, an elderly gentleman, accompanied by a young lady, entered the cars and finally secured a seat. As the conductor approached the pair, the young lady arose, and in a pleading voice said:
"Please, sir, don't let him carry me to the asylum. I am not crazy; I am a little tired, but not mad. Oh! no, indeed. Won't you please have papa take me back home?"
The conductor, accustomed though he was to all phases of humanity, looked with astonishment at the pair, as did the other passengers in their vicinity. A few words from the father, however, sufficed, and the conductor passed on while the young lady turned her face to the window. The writer chanced to be seated just behind the old gentleman, and could not forgo the desire to speak to him. With a sad face and a trembling voice the father said:
"My daughter has been attending the seminary in a distant town and was succeeding remarkably. Her natural qualities, together with a great ambition, placed her in the front ranks of the school, but she studied too closely, was not careful of her health, and her poor brain has been turned. I am taking her to a private asylum where we hope she will soon be better."
At the next station the old man and his daughter left the cars, but the incident, so suggestive of Shakspeare's Ophelia, awakened strange thoughts in the mind of the writer. It is an absolute fact that while the population of America increased thirty per cent. during the decade between 1870 and 1880 the insanity increase was over one hundred and thirty-five per cent. for the same period. Travellers by rail, by boat, or in carriages in any part of the land see large and elaborate buildings, and inquire what they are?
Insane asylums!
Who builds them?
Each state; every county; hundreds of private individuals, and in all cases their capacity is taxed to the utmost.
Why?
Because men, in business and the professions, women, at home or in society, and children at school overtax their mental and nervous forces by work, worry and care. This brings about nervous disorders, indigestion, and eventually mania.
It is not always trouble with the head that causes insanity. It far oftener arises from evils in other parts of the body. The nervous system determines the status of the brain. Any one who has periodic headaches; occasional dizziness; a dimness of vision; a ringing in the ears; a feverish head; frequent nausea or a sinking at the pit of the stomach, should take warning at once. The stomach and head are in direct sympathy, and if one be impaired the other can never be in order. Acute dyspepsia causes more insane suicides than any other known agency, and the man, woman or child whose stomach is deranged is not and cannot be safe from the coming on at any moment of mania in some one of its many terrible forms.
The value of moderation and the imperative necessity of care in keeping the stomach right must therefore be clear to all. The least appearance of indigestion, or mal-assimilation of food should be watched as carefully as the first approach of an invading army. Many means advocated for meeting such attacks, but all have heretofore been more or less defective. There can be little doubt, however, that for the purpose of regulating the stomach, toning it up to proper action, keeping its nerves in a normal condition and purifying the blood, Warner's Tippecanoe The Best, excels all ancient or recent discoveries. It is absolutely pure and vegetable; it is certain to add vigor to adults, while it cannot by any possibility injure even a child. The fact that it was used in the days of the famous Harrison family is proof positive of its merits as it so thoroughly withstood the test of time. As a tonic and revivifer it is simply wonderful. It has relieved the agony of the stomach in thousands of cases; soothed the tired nerves; produced peaceful sleep and averted the coming on of a mania more to be dreaded than death itself.

HARPER'S MAGAZINE.
ILLUSTRATED.
With the new volume, beginning in December, HARPER'S MAGAZINE will conclude its thirty-fifth year. The oldest periodical of its type, it is yet, in each new volume, a new magazine, nor simply because it presents fresh subjects and new pictures, but also, and chiefly, because it steadily advances in the method itself of magazine-making. In a word, the MAGAZINE becomes more and more the faithful mirror of current life and movement. Leading features in the attractive programme for 1885 are: new serial novels by CONSTANCE FENIMORE WOOLSON and W.D. HOWELLS; a new novel entitled "At the Red Glove;" descriptive illustrated papers by F. D. MILLET, R. SWAIN GIFFORD, E.A. ABBEY, H. GIBSON, and others; Goldsmith's "She Stoops to Conquer," illustrated by ABBEY; important papers on Art. Science, etc.

HARPER'S BAZAR.
ILLUSTRATED.
Harper's Bazar is the only paper in the world that combines the choicest literature and the finest art illustrations with the latest fashions and methods of household adornment. Its weekly illustrations and descriptions of the newest Paris and New York styles, with its useful pattern-sheet supplements and cut patterns, by enabling ladies to be their own dressmakers, save many times the cost of subscription. Its papers on cooking, the management of servants, and housekeeping in its various details are eminently practical. Much attention is given to the interesting topic of social etiquette, and its illustrations of art needlework are acknowledged to be unequalled. Its literary merit is of the highest excellence, and the unique character of its humorous pictures has won for it the name of the American Punch.

STARK'S ILLUSTRATED
BERMUDA GUIDE.
The Bermuda Islands are coming more prominently before the public each season, as a health resort and winter watering place. Although it is but sixty-five hours' sail from New York to these coral islands, yet they are strangely unfamiliar to most well informed Americans. Speaking our own language, having the same origin, with manners and customs prevalent in New England a century ago, it is only now that these islands and their inhabitants have attracted much attention and led the public to inquire concerning them.
It is to satisfy this demand and also to bring to the notice of those unacquainted with the beauties of these semi-tropical islands that the writer has been led to issue this work, which is the first illustrated guide-book and history of Bermuda yet published. The book contains two hundred pages, and is embellished with sixteen photo-mechanical prints made by a new process from negatives (taken by the author during the past winter) of the finest scenery in Bermuda. This is a new feature in the matter of book illustrations, and it makes the work both unique and valuable.

It is needless to remind the gentlemen of the newspaper fraternity how dependent is such a publication as the BAY STATE MONTHLY upon their good will and favor.
What we need, to fully carry out the idea of giving to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts a Magazine of biography, history and, literature devoted especially to the State, is the hearty support of readers and advertisers. We want an increased subscription list so that every hamlet in the State will be supplied with the magazine.
We need notices that will increase our subscription list.

EMPHATIC GUARANTEES.
WHICH ARE JUSTIFIED BY AN EXTRAORDINARY PUBLIC EXPERIENCE.
TO THE PUBLIC.—Greeting: As the conductors of the largest business of the kind in the world, (and therefore having an extraordinary experience), we feel justified in making the following statements:
OUR THEORY PROVED.
First.—We have held from the beginning that most of the common ailments are caused primarily by kidney and liver disorders, not primarily by bad blood; that bad blood is caused by temporary or chronic derangement of the kidneys and liver, and that by restoring these blood-purifying organs to health, we could cure most of the common ailments. Other practitioners, however, have held that extreme kidney and liver disorders were incurable. We, have proved to the contrary in thousands of cases.
SAFEGUARDS AGAINST EPIDEMICS.
SECOND.—The kidneys and liver are the sewers of the system, and unless they are kept in perfect working order no amount of public sanitation can prevent epidemics raging among the people. The prudent man, in the winter and spring, will fortify the system against an such possibility. Dr. Koch, the celebrated German scientist and physician, says, for instance, that cholera will have but little effect among those who keep the digestive organs and the kidneys and liver in healthful operation. Warner's SAFE Remedies are the best scientific curatives and preventives, and should be used now as a safeguard against any future scourge.
SCIENTIFIC SPECIFICS.
THIRD.—We do not cure every known disease from one bottle, for Warner's SAFE Remedies number seven scientific specifics, which have been put upon the market, only in obedience to strong public demand.
RECOGNIZED STANDARDS.
FOURTH.—Warner's SAFE Remedies, spite of all opposition, have won the favor of the profession as well as the masses, and are recognized as the leading standard medical preparations.
STRONG GUARANTEES.
FIFTH.—After six years of unequaled experience, we can give these unqualified guarantees:
GUARANTEE I.—Pure and Harmless. That Warner's SAFE Remedies are pure and harmless.
GUARANTEE II.—Testimonials Genuine. That the Testimonials used by us, so far as we know, are bona fide, with a forfeit of $5,000 for proof to the contrary.
GUARANTEE III.—Curative Effects Permanent. That Warner's SAFE Remedies are not merely temporary, but permanent, in their curative effects and will sustain every claim, if used sufficiently and as directed.
PROOFS OF PERMANENCY.
SIXTH.—Special inquiry among hundreds of our oldest patients results in unequivocal testimony that the cures wrought six, five, four, and three years ago, were permanent. And most of these patients were pronounced incurable when they began Warner's SAFE Remedies.
Read a few of thousands of testimonials.
B.F. LARRABEE, 42 Chester Square, Boston, Mass., in 1879 was pronounced incurable of acute Bright's Disease. From 1880 to 1882 he used over 200 bottles of Warner's Safe Cure, and October 6th, 1884, he said that his cure was as permanent as surprising.
REV. S.P. SMITH, Marblehead, Mass., after years of suffering from Bilious attacks and Gall Stones, began Warner's Safe Cure in 1882 and in June, 1884, reported that he had had no trouble since.
HON. N.A. PLYMPTON, Worcester, Mass., in 1880 suffered frightful tortures from Gravel of the Kidneys; failing of relief otherwise he used a few bottles of Warner's Safe Cure and recently wrote: "It perfectly cured me, four years ago."
L. Dow, Esq., 204 Columbus Ave., Boston, Mass., was cured of Kidney disorder by Warner's Safe Cure in 1882, and November 28th, 1884, he wrote that the cure was permanent.
MRS. S.A. CLARK, East Granby, Conn., suffered for over ten years from Constitutional and Sex disorders of the worst kind. In November, 1884, she wrote: "Warner's Safe Cure cured me four years ago and has kept me well to this day."
SEVENTH.—It is a source of great gratification to us that Warner's Safe Remedies have been permanently beneficial to so many sufferers. This permanency of power over disease gives them the most exalted rank, and in this particular they have no equal. H.H. WARNER & CO. Rochester, N.Y., Jan. 1, 1885.
