This is to certify, that I have put in one of
Howd’s Patent Cast Iron Direct Action Water
Wheels, in the place of a Reaction Wheel; that
the Direct Wheel does not flood the tail race as
much by three inches as the reaction did, and
that I can grind seven bushels with the direct
action wheel an’hour, and drive two run of
stones, where I could not grind four bushels in
the same time with the reaction and drive one
run of stones.
PETER FAHNESTOCK,

This ni/iy certify, that I have been engaged
in putting in S.JB. Howd’s cast iron direct ac
tion Water Wheel, both in the.,State of New
York and in Michigan; and can give it as my
decided opinion that, with 8 feet head or under,
rightly put in, it will do' more business with the
same-water than any other water wheel which
I have yet had any 'experience in, and
ence to back water, is second best to none) that
I have yet tried. In reference to guarding a
gamstjeet there can be no better operation, and
it is to be kept in repair.
STEPHEN AXLE'S, Millwright,

This may certify that I have had in my Mill
one of Mr. llowd's direct water wheels for the
space of one year. It is l a fivc'.fcet wheel, and
I have had a rc-action in the same place—l have
also Had Wheeler’s Union Wheel, yet I think
Mr. Howd’s will do more business with less wa
ter than any other I have tried. It dpes well
in back waters I have had from sto fi feci

in my mill.' LAWRENCE RILEY.^
. Lyons, September 3,
This may certify, that we have used one of S.
Hold’s patent water Wheels since December
last, by the'side of a re-action wheel, and we
think that Howd’s will do double the business,
with the same w.ater-thht Abe re-action "wheel
wijl door very,near. - We never have but three
feet head, and can grind with that eight bushels
per hour. We are subject to back-water. This'
-wheel will do ns good business under back wa

DYSPEPSIA! DYSPEPSIA!!
MOKE testimonials of the efficacy of Dr.
Wm. Evans’Camomile Pills. '•
, : Philadelphia', Dec.l9, 1838.
Sir:—Being on ii visit to Philadelphia, from
my native village of Germantown, X joyfully
avail myself of the opportunity of adding a. few
words of fecommenclaVmn to your celebrated
Pills, testimony already given
in their &yor. About four years ago, 1, was at
tackedewith Dyspepsia, and for several years
suffered from thaV complaint in its worst stages.
Notwithstanding 1-tfied every thing that came
before the public, I obtained no relief, till I ac
cidentally saw your advertisement; From the
numerous and respectable testimpriials.whioh
accompanied it, I had some faint' hones that
your medicine might’ not prove altogether use-,
lessin my own case; I tried it, and it is scarcely 5
necessary to add was shortly cured. Indeed the
success was greater than I cquid possibly have
anticipated from even the warmest recommen
dations. As a small return for the benefit you
have bestowed, I send,you this acknowledgment
of my thanks and the deep sense of obligation
under which I feel my self toward you. Having
implicit confidence in the effiegey of your Cam
omile Pills, and feeling it dueto my fellow suf
ferers, I would warmly entreat all who may be
dragging bn their existence under the influence
of that scourge of the.hUmsniiuuiLy. Dyspepsiar
todaynslde thejr early prejudices against such
remedies, and apply to you, that they may.re
ceive aspeedyandpermanent restoration.
I still reside in Germantown,-though I fre
quently visit the city,- and.will willinglg give any
further information that may. be desired.
Ever gratefully yours. - ■

THE TRUE RICHES OF LIFE IS
health.
IVe know that health, and the ability to labor
i 9 the wealth of the great mass of the people in
this as in most other countries. To preserve,
therefore, that health by NAT URAL means , is
a grand moral and political scheme, to Juffil
which require* our utmost attention .
THE unparalleled reputation which Peters*
Pills have acquired as a Medical Restorative,
is the most unquestionable proof that cun be .gi
ven of theirimmense importance to the affUctedr
in almost every class of diseases. The number
of letters received from patients recovering thro*
their means is reftlly prodigious, and the com
plaints which theyJiave cured are almost as va
ried as they are numerous. But still there are
some in which they are more especially benefi
cial than in others; and among those nuiy be
named the too often fatal complaints of the sto
mach and bowels, such’ ag Cholic, Flatulence,
and Indigestion, for which they are not only a
certain but an immediate cure.
It is well known that from the disarrangement
of-the stomach and bowels, arise nine tenths of
all the maladies of adult and declining life; that
this is the foundation of Flatulency, Spasmodic
Pains, Indigestion, Loss of Apelile &c., and that
those in their turn give birth to Dropsy, Liver
Complant, Consumption, and habitual lowness of
spirits; therefore Peters-Pills being the very
best medicine which has ever been discoyefed
fur the incipient diseases of the intestines, are
necessarily the surest preventives of those dread
ful, and also general disorders, which embitter
mature life, and drag so many millions to un
timely graves.
In speaking thus Dr. Peters arrogates nothing
to himself that has not been conceded by the
public. He is no needy quack or unknown spec
ulator, who comes before the world as his own
herald and witness, hut is placed in a responsi
bility of situation by the patronage which he has
enjoyed for years, and which is increasing to an
extent unprecedented in t,he annals of medicine,
that makes him careful to arrest nothing which

hence he does not fear to be put to the test in any
thing which he haspnfmiscd respecting his Pills.
I)r, Peters is most happy to lie able to slate,
on the authority of a great number of regular
physicians, that, wherever his Vegetable Pills
have beer, introduced,..they have alnspstsupcr
ceded the adoption of mercurial experiments,
for their peculiar facultyin sweetening the blood,
and stimulating it to expel all noxious juices, and 5
in giving strength and tone*to the. nerves,

ATTACKS & THEIR DESTRUC
TIVE NOSTRUMS.—The united lesti
rtuinyof physicians throughout the UnitedJSlates
has fully proved the fact that Peters* Vegetable
Pills are the only true Vegetable Pills which will
stand the test of anulyzation; hence the proprie
tor would most earnestly urge them to the notice
of those who have been in the habit of using, as
cathartics or aperients, the destructive and irri
tating quack pills advertised, and
which are at best but alow consumers of the vital
function?, and murderous agents, even to the
juoat hale. It-Js-tcue.most oFlhem-produce-a
purgative effect,, and sometimes transient relief;
but in most cases they injure the digestive or
gans, and an habitual resort to them must ter
minate in confirmed dyspepsia.
It is true that cathartic and aperient medicines
are often required, but the nicest discrimination
should always be observed .n the selection; and,
if this be clone, nothing injurious cart 1 result from
theiruse.
To produce this much desired result, Dr. Pe
ters has made it his study for several years and
feels proud to say he has succeeded at length far
beyond his expectations. The object of his pills
is to supercede the necessity of .a-frequent re
course to injurious purgatives, and to offer a me
dicine safe, certain, and pleasant in its operation.

which proves them to be exceedingly good . .
‘2. Because they are composed of simples
which have the power to do good in aninmiense
rnumberof cases, without possessing the means 1
to do injury ip any.
3 Because they are not a quack medicine,but
the scientific compound of a regular'physician,
wlio has made the study of his life, ■
4 Because they are not unpleasant to take nor,
distressing to retain, while-they are most effect
ive to operate*
5 Becausethey are recommended as standard
medicine byfthe regular faculty.
6 Because by keeping the system in a natural
state of action, they cure almost every disease
which is incidental to the human frame.
7 Because they an? cheap and portable, nnd
will retain all their virtues in full vigor, in any
climate; and for any length of time.

and mildness, they are one of the speediest pur
gative_mfedicinea_which has yct been discovered.-
9 Because they are an unfailing remedy for
procuring a good appetite*
10 ' Because in cases of spleen or despondency,
by their healthy influence ,on the excited state of
the body, they have "a most happy effect, in
calming, and invigorating the mind.
11 Because they effect their cures without
the usual attendants of other pills, sickness and
grlpings. • ,
12 Because as .well as being an unrivalled
purifier of the general system, they are a sover*
cign remedy for sick head-ache*
13 Because they differ from the majority of
medicines, in the fact that the more they are
known the more they are approve d,-
14 Because as their'application creates no
debility in the system, they may be taken with
out producing any hindrance to business or the
usual pursuits of every day life
-15 Because when once introduced into a fam
ily, or a village, they almost, immediately take
the precedence of all other medicines in genera/
complaints; - 1
16 Because a number of the wonderful cures
theythaye effected, can be substantiated without
any undue means being resorted td, to procure
invalid testimonies.
17 Because their composition is such, that
thpy are equally applicable’to the usual diseases
of warm, cold, or temperate climates.

take them, (not more than two »r, time at a
tiine-howcvcr!) without in the slightest degree

virtues of Peters* inestimable pills, confined to'
this desirable end alone, it would give them a
decided advantage over the medicines of all com
petitors, as ift no cases is there more danger to
be apprehended, or for which so few have been
discovered, as the one referred to.
