THE LIVES MORJTOII, j
PREPARED BY I>K. SANFORD.
Coinpunded entireH from GUMS,
IS ONE OF THE BEST P4JKGATIVE AND i
LIVER .MEDICINES now before the public, j
that acts ns a Cathartic, earier, milder, ami more
effectual than any other medicine known. It is not
only a Cathartic , but a Liter remedy, acting first
t,Xi tbe Liter to eject its morbid matter, then on the
s oMicli and bowels to carry off that matter, thus
accomplisbiug two purposes effectually, without
anv ot the painful teeliugs exi>erieuee.i in the op
erations oi most Cathartics. It strengthens the
system at the same time that it purges it; and
when taken daily in moderate doses, will strength
en and build it up with unusual rapidity.
The Liver is one of the principal regulators o!
the human body, aud when it performs its functions j
well the j>owei - s of the system are fully developed. ;
The stomach is almost entirely depend nt on the ;
healthy action of the Liver for the proper perform
ante of its junctions. When the stomach is u:
/suit, tiie bowels are at fault, and the whole system
suffers in consequence of ore organ—the Liter—;
having ceased to do its duty, for the disease 01 j
that organ, one of tbe proprietors lias made it his !
study, in a practice of more than twenty years, to i
find some remedy wherewith to counteract the ma- ,
nv derangements to which it is liable.
To prove that this re- • medy is at hist found,
any person troubledpCq witii Liver Complaint j
in any of its foims, has;—-j but to try a bottle, and j
conviction is certain, r.
These gums all morbid or b.d mat- i
tcr from the system, - supplying in their place j
a healthy flow 01 hile.ry— iuvigoratiug the stam
ach, causing food to gest well, purifying the
blood, giving tone health to the weak j
machinery, the causes of the dis- j
case, and effecting a ra-HH dical cure.
Bilious attacks cured, and, what is bet

One or two doses cures attacks caused by worms,
while for worms in children, there is no safer or

A few bottles cures Dropsy, by exciting the ab
sorbents.
We take pleasure in recommending this medi
cine as a preventive for Fever and Ague, Chill Fe
ver, and all Fevers of a Bilious Type. It operates
■with certainty, and tle-usands are willing to testify
to its wonderful virtues.
All who use it are giving their unanimous testi
■mony in its favor. D2?"Mix Water in the Mouth
with the Invigorator, and swallow both together.
The Liver Invigorator
is a great scientific Medical Discovery, and is daily
working cures almost too great to believe. It
.cures as it by magic, eren the first dose Riving bene
fit and seldom more than one bottle is required to
cure any kind of Liter Complaint, from the worst
Jaundice or Dyspepsia to a common headache, all
of which are the result of a Diseased Liter.

Restorative, and its effects were so wonderful, wc
feel it our duty to you and the afflicted, to report

Our little son's head for sonic time had been

scald head. The hair almost entirely came off in
consequence, when a Iriend, seeing his sufferings,
advised us to use your Restorative, we did so with
little hope of success, but to our surprise, and'
that of all our friends a vrry few applications re
moved the disease entirely,and a now and luxuri

THE GREAT PURIFIER!— t
THE WORLD CHALLENGED!—
[T7-TO PRODUCE ITS EQUAL •
ET7-THK BLOOD SEARCHER
(17-OLORIOUS TRIUMPHANT!
Sworn statement of Divld McCrearv, of Napier
Township. Bedford county:
In April, 1860, as near as I can mnemlier, a
small piuiple made its appearance on my upper lip,
which soon became enlarged and sore. I use 1 ;
poltices of sorrel, anil a wash of blue} vitriol, with
out effect. Finding the sore extending, I called on !
Dr. Ely, of Schellsburg, who pronuunced it CAN- '
CEK, and proscribed a wash of sugar of lead and
bread poultices. Finding these remedies of no
avail, 1 called upon Dr. Shatter, of Davidsville,
Somerset county, who also pronounced the disease
Cancer, and gave me internal and external remedies
—the latter consisting principally of canstie; hut
all to no purpose, as the disease continued spread
ing toward the nose. I next used a preparation of
arsenic, in the form of salve. This for a time
checked the disease, but the in donation soon in
creased. I next called upon Dr. Statler of St.
Clairsville, Bedford county, who also pronounced
tlte disease Cancer, and applied a salve said to be a
never failing remedy, but it had no effect whatever
in checking the spread of the sore. In December,
of the same year, the diaeaae bad eateu away a 1
greater Dart of my upper lip, an 1 had attacked the '
nose, when I went to Cincinnati, where I consulted j
Prof. RS. Neirtoa,of iheElcctic Medical College, j
He pronounced the disease "a cutaneous C mcer, j
superinduced by an inordinate use of mercury.— .
He applied luihl sine ointment, and gave internal j
lemedies. My face healed up. hut the infl Mixtion i
was not tho.-oughly removed. In Febuary, 185 V, I
he pronounced me cured, and I left for home. In '
April the disease again returned and so violent was
the pain that I could not rest at night. Late in
May I returned to Cincinnati, and again placed
myself under the charge of Dr. Newton, with whom
I remained until Septemlier, during which time he j
used every known remedy, und partly succeeded in j
checking the disease, lart when I returned home j
tl<ere were still throe discharging ulcers upon my
face. I continued using Newton's preparations,
and also medicine that I got from Dr. Ely, but the
Cancer continued growing until it had eat off the
left iiile of my note, the greater portion of my left
cheek, ami had attacked try left eye. I had given up
all hope of eve! lieinp cured ; since Dr. Ely said he
could only give relief ; but that a cure was impos
siUe. In March, 1858, 1 bought a bottle of 'Blood
Scearchec,' but 1 must confess that I bad no faith
in it. 1 was very weak when I commenced taking
it; tait I lound that 1 gained strength day by day,
and also that the ulcers commenced drying up. I j
continued, and when the third liottle was taken my ;
face was healed as if by a miracle. I used a forth j
bottle, and 1 have been healthier since than I have -
been for the last seven years. Although my face ,
is sadly disfigured, I am still grateful to a benign j
Providence who has spared my lite, and which has I
been done through the instrumentality of LIXDSKT'S J
IMPROVED BLOOD SEARCHER.

NEW EVIDENCE.
Being afflicted with a grievous Tetter on the arms j
and face—after trying many remedies which utteily ;
failed to cure—l was persuaded by W. M. Harris A
Co. to try Lindsay's Improved Blood Searcher; and |
now, gix w-eks after finishing the eecoud bottle, i
pronounced myself cured.
The letter broke out, something over a year ago,
on the inside of my arms, extending from the el
isors down to the wrists ; also, on my face, im.
mediately round the mouth and ciin,and continued
to be a perfect torment to me until cured by the Blood
Searcher. My arms, wore almost useless, owing to i
thu cracks and sores or. them, liable to bleed at
any time on the least exertion to lift or work, and
sometimes so itchy that 1 could scarcely prevent
tearing off niy flesh. 1 have now been cured six
weeks ami feel it due to Mr. Lindsay, and to the j
public generally, to make this statement, in hope j
that others like myself may be benefitted by using
bis valuable medicine. iter

FERGUSON & CO.,
HAVF just opened their new store, in Anderson's
row of buildings, nearly opposite the Gazette
office.
Their stock of booh and ehoet for men, women and
children is certainly the best and cheapest that has
ever been brought to Bedford, for three reasons :
FTRST. On account of the pressure of the times,
they have been laid in at 30 rente on the dollar
leee than what -was paid last year for the same
kind of goods.
.SECOND, They were bought for caeh, and the
tnstial discounts made.
THFRD, They were bought in much larger quanti
ties than dry goods merchants buy them, and
consequently were bought much lower.
If this is doubted, the evidence is on the stand at
the counter.
LADIES DEPARTMENT.
The store'loom has been so arranged as to have
a separate apartment for ladies, provided with cora
i fo it able chairs and stools, where they can sit und
talk or be 3" shoes, just as they please.

OCTOBER APPOINTMENT.
BEDFORD, "WASHINGTON HOUSE,
WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 13TH. 1853.
ir. llaniimn ticwuts Consumption, Bronchitis
Asthma, Lsuyngiuis, and all disease* of the throat
and lungs, by medical Inhalation, lately used in the
Proiuton Hospital, London. The great point in
the treatment of ali human maladies is to get at
the disease in the direct manner. All medicine .
are estimated by their action upou the organ re
quiring relief. This is the important fact upon
which Inhalation is based. If the stomach is di
seased we take medicine directly into the stomach
If the lungs are diseased, breathe or itilule medi
cated vapors directly into the lungs. Meaicine*
are the antidotes to disease and should he applied
to the Very seal of disease. Inhalation is the ap
plication of this principle to the treatment of tins
lungs, for it gives us direct access to those intri
cate air cells and tulies which lie out of reach of
aveiy other means of administering medicines.—
The reason that consumption, aud other diseases
of tlie lungs, have heretofore resisted ail treatment
has been because they had never been appro*eh -<1
in a direct manner by medicine. Tlicy were intend
ed to ait upon the lungs and vet were applied to
the stomach. Their action was intended to Is* lo
cal, and yet they were so administered that they
should act. constitutionally, exending immediate
and pi incipal action ujioii the unotfending stcntach,
whilst the foul ulcers within thj lungs were unmo
lested. Inhalation brings the medicine in direct
contact with the disease, without the disadvantage
of any violent action. Its application is so sim
ple that it can lie employed by the youngest infant
or feeblest invalid. It dees not derange the sto
mach, or interfere in the least degree with the
strength, co.nfort, or business of the patient.
OTHER DISEASES TREATED.—Ib relation
to the lollowingd.seascs, either when complicated
with lung affections or existing alone, I also invite
consultation. I usually find them promptly curable.
Prolapsus and all other forms of female coin
plaints, irregularities, and weakness.
Palpitation and other forms of Heart Disease
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, and all other diseases
of stomach and bowels, &c.
All diseases of the eye and car. Neuralgia, Epi

which will not break down the constitution, but wiil
renovate the system from all injuries it has sustain
ed from mineral medicines. Chronic and difficult
diseases must be treated upon analytical principles,
which is to know and ascertain what disease is. Its
nature and character require a knowledge of the
chemical constituents of every solid and fluid of the
human body ; the changes those solids and fluids
it re capable of undergoing. To know what medi
cines to employ to enre diseases, requires a know- '
ledge of the chemical constituents ol all agents
employed in medicine; and if we are in possession
of this knowledge, it is possible to cure any disease
—no matter of how long standing—and feave the
patient in a healthy and perfectly cured condition.
