NERVOUS DISEASES CONTROLLED AND
CONQUERED.
Of all the various ills that detract from the en
joyment of human life, most of them may be traced
to a disordered condition of the nervous system.—
The horrors of Kpile psy, or falling Sickne>s, arise
in most cases from this cause. Our readers may re
member, on several occasions before, we have allu
ded to the wonderful cures, or modifications of Fits,
made by the Vegetable Extract Epileptic Pills, in
vented and prepared by Dr. Seth S. Hance, of 108
Baltimore Street, Baltimore, Md. We feel tully
satisfied that these Pills have cured some of the
most stubborn cases of Epilepsy, as well us. the
milder forms of Fits, such as severe Cramps, Spasms
Jxc. Wo now record the fact, that persons will find
these Pills equally efficacious in curing every form
of nervous debility i —no matter whether manifes
ted in the acute and excruciating form of Neural
gia, Tic-Doloreitx, or Nervnns Headache, the misery
of Dyspepsia or Indige-tion, the sufferings of Rheu
matism or Gout, the melancholy hallucination of
depressed spirits or hysteria, their effects will he
equally fwppy and certain. Persons in the country

are most formidable among children, the proprietors
ofM'Lane's Vermifuge. Fleming Bro ~of Pitsburgh,
beg leave to call the attention of parents to its vir
tues for the expelling of these annoying, and often
fatal enemies ot childien. It was invented by a
physician of great experience in Virginia, who.Ja!ter
having used it for several years in his own practice,
and found its success so universal, was induced at
last to offer it to the public as a cheap but cer
tain and excellent medicine. It has since become
justly popular throughout the United States, as the
most efficient Vermifuge ever known, and the de
mand has been steadily on the increase since its
first introduction to the public.
will be careful to ask for DR.
M'LANE'S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, manu
factured by FLEMING BROS., of Pittsburgh, Pa.
All other Vermifuges in comparison are worthless.
Dr. M'Lane's genuine Vermifuge, also his celebra

DR. M'LANRS
CELEBRATED
VERMIFUGE
LIVER FILLS.
\X/"E hcg leave to call the atten
tion of the J rade, and more
especially the Physicians of the
country, to two of the most popu
lar remedies now 'ocfore the public.
We refer to
Dr. Clias. Hl'lane's fflebrated
Vcrmifugc and Liver Pills.
We do not recommend them as
universal Cure-alls, but simply for
what their name purports, viz.:
THE VERMIFUGE,
For expelling Worms from the
human system. It has also been
administered with the most satis
factory results to various Animals
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS,
For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS,
all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTS, SICK
HEAD-ACHE, &C. In cases of
FEVER AND AGUE,
preparatory to or alter taking Qui
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men
tioned diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and never known to fail when ad
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors,
FLEMING BROTHERS,
PITTSBURGH, PA.
to dispose of their Drug business,
in which they have been success
fully engaged for the last Twenty
Years, and they will now give their
undivided time and attention to
their manufacture. And being de
termined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele
brated Vermifuge and Liver Pills
shall continue to occupy the high
position they now hold among the
great remedies of the day, they
will continue to spare neither time
nor expense in procuring the Best
and Purest material, and com
pound them in the most thorough
manner. Address all orders to
FLEMING B"0S. Pittsburgh, Pa.
