HOWO'S IMPROVED DIRECT
ACTION water WHEE .
THE public arc informed that the subscriber
has bought the right of the above' water
wheel, for the £tate of Pennsylvania. ■■ It is con
sidered by those having them in use, as one of
the most important improvements that has ever
been introduced. Persons desirous of seeing the,
wheel, can do. so, by calling at the foundry of
DAVID -COCKLEY, Lancaster. The an
nexed certificates have been given as a slight
testimonial of its value; they will speak for them
selves.- All communications addressed to the

This is to ccrtijy, 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 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. , _

This may certify* that I have been engaged
in putting, in-S. B-Howd’s cast'iron direct ac
tion Water Wheel, both in ,thc 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 in refer*
ehce to back water, is second best to none that
I have yet tried. In relerence to guarding a
gainst ice; -there can be no better operation, and
it is very easy to be kept in repair,
STEPHEN AILES, Millwright,.

Alloway, September 3, 1838.;
This rhay certify that I have had in my Mill
one of Mr. Howd’s direct water wheels for the
space,of one year. .Itis a five feet 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 wRJi less wa
ter than any other I have tried. It does well
in back water. I have had from sto 6 feet
head. I think we could do as jnuch-Woi:k with
half the -witter as we used to do with the under
shoot wheel, which has also hern in operation
in my mill. LAWRENCE RILEY.;
Lyons, September 3, 1838.
This may certify, that we nave used one of S.
Howd’s patent water, Wheels’ since December
last, by the side of a re-action wheel, and we
think that Howd’s will do donble tlre business,
with'the same water that the re action wheel
wljl door very near. We never have but three
feet head, and can grind with that eight bushejs
pc'r hour. We are subjecHo back-water. This
wheel will do as good business under back wh
ter as the re-action, and we recommend it to
the attention and patronage of the public,

PERSONS whose nerves have been {injured

Ijlootl, tile suppression <jf accustomed discharges'
or cutaneous eruptions, intemperate habits, orj
other causes which tend to relax and enervate
the nervous system, will find a friend to soothe

Those afflicted with Epilepsy or Falling. Sick- '
ness, Palsy, Serious Apoplexy, and organic af
fections of the heart, nausea, vomiting, pains in
the side, breast, limbs, head, stomach or back,
will find themselves immediately relieved, hv
using EVANS’ CAMOMILE and APERIENT
PILLS. Dr. Evans does not pretend to say that
in all debilitated, and impaired constitutions—
in nervous diseases of all kinds, particularly of
the digestive organs, and in incipient consump
tion, whether of the lungs or liver, they will
cure. That dreadful
might have been checKedfintscommencement,
and disappointed of its prey all over the land,
it the first symptoms of nervous debility had
been counteracted by the Canibmile Flower
chemically prepared, together with many other
diseases, whgre. other remedies-have proved
fatal. . . .....
_ How many persons do we daily find tortured
.with that dreadful disease. Sick Headache. If
they would only make trial of this invaluable
medidiue, they would perceive that life is a
pleasure and not a source of misery and abhor
rence. In conclusion I would wiivn nervous
persons against the abstraction of blond, either
by-leeches, cupping, or the employment of the
lancet. Drastic purgatives in delicate habits
are almost equally improper. Those are prac
tices too often resorted to in such cases, but they
seldom fail to prove highly injurious. Certifi

I suffered from tliai complaint in its worst stages.
' Notwithstanding I tried every thing that came 1

saw your advertisement. From the
numerous and respectable testimonials which
1 accompanied it, I had some faint hopes that
I your medicine might not prove altogether use
less in my.own case. I tried it, and it is scarcely
necessary to add was shortly cured. Indeed the
success was greater than ! could possibly havq
anticipated from even the warmest recommen

of my thanks and the deep sense of obligation
under which I feel myself toward you. Having l

dragging on their existence under the injjnence

THE TRUE RICHES
HEALTH.
We know that health, and the ability to labor
is the wealth of the great mass of the profile'in
this as in most other countries. To preserve,',
therefore, that health by ATA7 URAL,means, is
<i grand moral and fiolitical scheme t to juljil
which requires 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 their immense importance to the afflicted,
in-almost every class of diseases. The number
of letters received from patients recovering thro'
their means is really prodigious, and the com
plaints "which they have 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 may be
named the too often fatal complaints of the sto
mach and bowels, such as Cholic, Flatulence,
and Indigestion, for which they are not only a
certain hut an immediate cure, .
It is well known that from the disarrangement I
of the stomach nod-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 Apetite Sec., and that
those in their tyrn give birth to Dropsy, Liver
Complant, Consumption, and habitual lowness of
spirits; therefore Peters’‘Pills being the very
best medicine which has ever been discovered
for the incipient diseases of—tbe i( intestines, are
necessarily the surest pfeventives_of those dreads
ful, and also general disorders, which embitter
.mature and drag so many millions to un
timely graves. „ ' ... 1
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, wh° comes-hefore the world as, his own
herald and witness, hut is placed in' a . responsi
bility of situation by the patronage which he has
enjoyed tor years, and which is increasing to; an
extent unprecedented in the annals of medicine,,
that makes him careful to arrest.nothing .which
is not borne out by the most infalible proof, and
hence he does not fear to he put to the test in any
thing which he has promised respecting his Pills.
Dr." Peters is moat happy to be able to state,
on the authority of a great number of regular
physicians, that wherever ills -Vegetable Pills
have been introduced, they have almost super
ceded the adoption of mercurial experiment;!,
for their peculiar faculty in sweetening the blood,
and stimulating it to expel all noxious juices, and
in giving strength and tone ; to the nerves, pre
vents disease from acquiring that strength winch

UAOES &. THEIR DESTRTJC-
I'IVE NOSTRyMh,—The muted testi
mmfy of physicians throughout ‘the United States
has fully proved the fact that Peters' egetable
Pills-nre the only true Vegetable Pills winch will
•■tand the test of analyzalion; hence the proprie
tor would most earnestly urge them to the notice
of those who have been in the habit ot using, as
cathartics or aperients, the destructive and irn
tating quack pills so genera))* advertised,, and
which are at best but slow consumers ot the vital
functions, and murderous agents. even to the
most hale. ' It is true, most nt them produce a
purgative effect, and sometimes transient relief;
hut in most cases they injure the digestive or
gans, and an habitual resprt tcrlhem 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 done, nothing injurious can result from
their use. ' , , . , ~ r, n
To produce this much desired result. Dr. 1 e
tors has made it his study for several years and
feels proud to say he has succeeded at length tar
beyond Ins expectations. The object of ins 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.
