• OFFICE JOHN A. STODD \RT, NO. 411
CHESTNUT STREET, PHILADEL
PHIA, PENN'A.
Attention is invited to the following
statement and the accompanying testjmoni
als in favor of these Mii**
CE LEB RATED AM ERIC AJY WATCHES,
A Gold Medal was awarded the Company by the
Massachusetts Mechanical Association, 1856. A
Gold Medal was also awarded them by the Amer
ican Institute at New York, in 1557. The Compa
ny also received the First Premium —a Gold Medal
—from the Franklin Institute, Philadelphia, in
1858. . ,
These Watches have now been in the market for
nearly ten years, during which time they have been
tested as to
ACCURACY, DURABILITY AND RELIABIL
ITY,
in every conceivable manner, and have proved
themselves to be the most satisfactory time pieces
ever offered to the public.
This result has been brought about byastiict ap
plication of mechanical science to the construction
of the watch from its very iuception, rendeiing it,
when finished
MATHEMATICALLY CORRECT,
in all proportions, and necessarily as perfect a time
keeper as it is possible to make.
The Company have tested their Watches, in
many instances, by actual daily noting, and the re
sult of this test has been that tbey have exhibited
a Tte ?qual in regularity to the best marine chro
nometer.
N. B.—We have just introduced a
JYEW STYLE OF WATCH
elabontely finished, and thinner than any we have
heretofore produced, with several improvements
calculated to secure the greatest accuracy of perfor
mance, and to prevent the usual accidents and de
rangements to which toreign watchts are liable.

to be a most reliable and aaourate time-keeper—al
most unnecessarily so lor ordinary purposes. It is
now nearly Sv? months since jtcame into my pos
session, and during that period its variation from
standaid time has been but a trifle more Than haifa
minute. The following is a record of its perfor
mance. It was set June 3d correctly:

JERUSALEM.
A LARGE AND BEAUTIFUL
ISO METRICAL PICTURE
OF JERUSALEM
AND THE SACRED PLACES
: SURROUNDING THE HOLY CITY,
AS THEY APPEARED IN ANCIENT TIMES.
The above work is commended to the favorable
notice of clergymen, and those having charge of
Sunday-schools," Bible-classes, and public institu
tions.
It is about nine feet long and six teet wide, co
lored and varnished, ami mounted on canvas with
rollers.
It has been constructed frem t -e most reliable
authentic sources, and will be found an invaluable
aid to those engaged in lecturidg on the Holy Land,
or ir. imparting instruction to school classes on the
subject to which it refers.
It aims to give an exact idea of the city as it ap
peared in ancient times. It is taken as a "birds
eye" or "balloon" view, the beholder being, in
imagination, placed at a considerable elevation, so
as to take a comprehensive view of the city and of
the whole country for some distance around.
The View is accompanied with an Outline Key,
in which the different localities are numbered, and
and a Descriptive Manual containing all the infor
mation necessary to enable one to use the View to
advantage in teaching or lecturing.

the very low price of y
ONE DOLLAR A YEAR.
it is designed For PARENTS, TEARHERS, and all
who are engaged or interested jntfche religious
training of the young. It is also FAM -
I. Y PAPER.
A portion of the Sunday-School is occu
pied with NARRATIVES and other matter particu
larly interesting to young persons. Teachers will
find in it much that tbey will lijfce to read to their
classes —interesting matter preparer. to their hands,
and such as they cannot find elsewhere. For the
same reasons, members of Bible-classes, and the
older schollars generally, will be greatly benefit
ed by the perusal of this piper.
The Sunday-School Tts{ha3 every week a re
port of the choicest m-tter,selected from the NOON
PRAYER-MEETINGS, which are so intertiug to
all cissses of Christians.
Besides a large amount of general religious intel
ligence, the Sunday-School Times contains all the
most .scent Sundav-schoo! news. It reports all the
important CONVENTIONS of Sunday-school teach
ers. It discusses the questions which most inter
est and peiplex teachers and parents, respecting the
various methods ot religious training for the young,
the means of gaining the attention and the affec
tions of children, and especially of securing their
conversion and bringing them to Christ. Ihe sub
ject of Mission-Schools for cities, and of Sunday
-schoel missionary work for the interior, :s thor
oughly canvassed. Indeed, there is hardly a top
ic of practical importance to any who are interes
ted in the subject of religious education, which is
not here brought under consideration from week to
week-
Tbe conductors of this paper endeavoi toTemeir. .

bring men to Christ. They aim, accordingly, to ,
put into every numbtr of the paper something
which shall have for rt direct object the conversion
of souls.

the obstructions which make
disease. A cold settles somewhere In tbe body, and ob
structs its natural functious. These, If not relieved,
react upou themselves and tho surrounding organs, pro
ducing general aggravation, suffering, and disease.
While In this conditio*, opprasvsd by the derangements,
take Ayer's Pills, and see how directly they restore tho
natural action of the system, aud with it the buoyant
feeling of health again. What is true and an apparent in
this trivial and common complaint, is also true In many
of tbe deep-seated anil dangerous distempers. Tbe same
purgative effect expels them. Caused by similar obstmc
-tlisu and derangements of fhe natural function* of tbe
body, they are rapidly, and many ef them surely, cured
by the same means. None who know the virtues of these
Pills, will neglsct to employ them when suffering from
the disorders they cure.

From a Forwarding Merchant of St. Isms, Fb. 4. 1556.
DR. Arm: Your Pills are the paragon of all thßt Is
groat In medicins. They hare cured my little daughter
of ulcerous sores upon her hands and feet that had proved
incurable for year*. Her mother has been long griev
ously afflicted with blotches and pimple* on her skin and
In tier hair. After our child was cured, eho also tried
your Pills, and they have cured her.
ASA MORGRIDGE.
Au a Family Physic.
From Dr. K. if. Garturright , .Yea- Orleans.
Your Pills are the prince of purges. Their excellent
qualities surpass any cathartic we possess. They are
mild, but very certain and effectual in their actior on the
bowels, which makes them invaluable to u* iu the daily
treatment of disease.
Headache,Siclalleadache,Foul Stomach.
From Dr. Edtoard Boyd, Baltimore
DEAR Bsc. Aver.: I ran not answer vou what complaints
I havs cured with your Pills better "than to say all that we
ever treat with a purgative medicine. I place great depen
dence on an effectual cathartic in my daily contest with
disease, and believing as I do that yonr Pills afford us tha
best we hare, I of course value them highly.

of your Pills. It seems to arise "from a foul stomach.

Bilious Disorders —Liver Complaints.
From Dr. Theodore Bell, of New York City.
Not only are yonr Pills admirably adapted to their pur
pose as ar aperient, but X And their beneficial effects upon
the Ltver very marked indeed. They have in my prac
tice proved more effectual for the cure of bilious com
plaints than any one remedy I can mention. 1 sincerely
rejoice that we have at length a purgative which is wor
thy tbe confidence of the profession and the people.
DWARTMXXT or THE INTERIOR, >
Washington, D. C., 7th Feb , 1856. /
SIR-: I have used your Pills in my geueral and hospital
practice ever siocc yon made them, and cannot hesitate to
say they are the best cathartic we employ. Their regu
lating action on tbe liver is quick and decided, conse
quently they are an admirable remedy for derangements
of that organ. Indeed, I have seldom found a case of
bilious disease to obstinate that it did not readily yield to
Ahem. Fraternally yours, ALONZU BALL, M. D„

Dyitatsry, Diarrhoea, Relax, Worms.
From Dr. J. G. Green, qf Chicago.
Your Fills have had a lung trial fn my practice, and I
hold them in estoc-m as one of the best aperients I have
ever found. Their alterative effect upon the -Hver makes
them an excellent remedy, when given in small doses for
bilious dysentery and diarrhtea. Their sugar-coating
makes them very acceptable and convenient for the use
of women aad children.
Dyspepsia, Impurity of the Blood.
From Rev. J. V. Ihmcs, Pastor of Advert: Church, Boston.
DR. AVER : I havs used yonr Pills with extraordinary
success in my family and among those I am called to visit
in distress. To regulate the organs of digestion and
purify the blood, they are the Tery best remedy I have
ever known, and I can confidently recommend'them to
my friends. Yours, J. V. HIMES.
WARSAW, Wyoming Co., X. Y., Oft. 24, 1855.
DEAR SIR : I am using your Cathartic Pills In my prac
tice, and find tbem an excellent purgative to cloaiiee the
system and purify the fountains of the blood.

Constlpetl*n,Ce*tlvsliess, Suppression,
Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, Drop
ay, Paralysis, Fits, etc.
From Dr. J. P. Vaughn. Montreal, Canada.
Too much cannot lie said of your Pills for the cure of
cnstiveness. If others of our fraternity have found them
as efficacious as I have, tbey should juin me iu proclaim
ing it for tbe benefit of the multitude* who suffer from
that complaint, which, although bad enough lu iteelf. is
the progenitor of others that are worse. I believe ens
tinr'ss to originate in tbe liver, but your Pilia affect that
organ and cure disease.
From Mrs. B. Stuart, Physician and Midwife, Boston.
I find one or two large dosee of your Pill*, taken at the
proper time, are excellent promotives of the natural secre
tion when wholly or partially suppressed, and also very
effectual to cleanse the stomach and expel worms. They
are so much the best physic we have that I recommend
no other to my patient*.
From the Rev. Dr. Haetkts, of the Methodist Bpis. Church.
PULASKI HOUSE. Savannah,Ga., Jan. 8, 1856.
HOWORED SIR: X ahould lie ungrateful for the relief
your skill has brought me if I did not report my caae to
you. A cold settled in my limbs and brongbt on excru
ciating newdlaic pains, which ended in chronic rheuma
tism. Notwithstanding I had the best of physicians, the
disease grew worse and worse, until by the advice of your
excellent agent in Baltimore, Dr. Mackensie, X tried your
Pills. Their effects were slow, but sure. By persevering
in the use of them, I am now entirely well.
STWATE CHAMBER. Baton Rouge, La.. 5 Dec. 1855.
DR. AVER : I heve been entirely cured, by your Pills, of
Rheumatic Gout —a painful disease that had afflicted tno
for years. VINCENT SLIDELL.
Most of fhe Pills in market contain Mercury,
which, although a valuable remedy in skilful hands, is
dangerous in a pnblic pill, from the dreadful conse
quences that frequently follow Its incautious use. These
contain no merocry or mineral substance whatever.
