V> .A Week In The Mountains.—At the '' , business meeting of the Editorial Asao ..Olatlon of Pennsylvania, In January last, , it was determined to try the experiment i' r }.bf a Summer meeting and an excursion. ' Williamsport was named as the place, ./and Wednesday, Juno I4th, fixed ns the , time. - SiV-''.;bpe of’ the most delightful rides In’the ls that along the winding banks ?yfep|tj.tbe Susquehanna--" the long crooked s,l(ji£fser ” as its Indian name signifies. It : Vfas in the afternoon, and the"sun.rode uv . over'.the forest-crowned blufls -;blt'the western side of the river. Occa sionally a threatening cloud throw a ; [ shade over the landscape, and •t -itheUi again the gunllght fell tn slant!lift upon ther water at our'feet, and v made each wavelet sparkle as If it held a '■ Jewel In lls crest. The water In thp river was low, amT the fresh green islands, Which sprang up out of the river-bed, ' added to the charming beauty of the scene. , iiVe'were soon satisfied that the excursion would be a success in point of numbers, ■• for editors with their wives and daugh ters got aboard the train at almost every railway station. ■ When we reached Williamsport, ao commodalioiis were readily secured at . the Herdic House, one of the handsomest, -:;iliiipgoDv>aleatl; arranged and best regulated hotels in the United States. It beautifully located in the midst of a of forest trees—half way between •r - the greeu hills and the river—and within : ; fifty yards of the railway station, where \ admirable regulations for the safety and dOonVenience of travelers are carried out with military precision. The present proprietors of the Herdic House, Messrs. . Schofield and Barry, formerly of the Con tinental Hotel in Philadelphia, by their excellent management, courteous de meknorand kindly attention to the wants of guests, will undoubtedly increase the popularity of the Herdlo House, already so ' favorably known throughout the country. 1 -On Wednesday morning, that public* . spirited and attUble gentlemau. Peter ' iierdlc, Esq., to whom Williamsport owes . abgreat a share of its prosperity, tendered the excursionists a boat ride on the river. .'-'■ffis were conveyed from the Herdlo ' House to the river in carriages, and '.i there embarked on three small steam* ... boats* Mr. and Mrs. Bterdlc joined the ’ and took great pleasure in designating points of interest and beauty the route. Of course we saw the . - “b.00m,” for It is u statutory offense In Williamsport to leave the city without paying your respects to , tiro “ boom.’’— . To-underatand what “the boom” is, a -:fev;words of explanation are necessary, -rouping the Summer and Fall the ium berman in the hills of northern Penn sylvania and New York cut the timber, and as soon as snow, falls in sufficient .quantity, they clear away the under brush and stumps, and make a “slide” they slide the lumber down . fro nit he hillsides to the mountain water Opdrses. There the logs are -branded with; the registered proprietary mark of thelc'respeotive owners, and when the spring freshets come they are cast into these raouataln streams, and find their .. ,j -■ - *• way,’to the Susquehanna, and thence float down the stream to Williamsport, Where they are safely lodged In the boom. The boom consists of a series of stone and JOgYpiers, running nearly parallel with ' til(fwestern bank of the river for two or throe miles, and then across to the eas . tern bank, with a mpveable “ draw ” for . thcfpassage of boats, Between the piers ' dogs, fastened together with Irqa.olamps, and held in their places by heavy iron chains, fastened to the piers, and long enough to permit the logs to rise and fall with the water level; Beneath the wooden framework are ioug Iron hooka which prevent the logs from “ducking” under, when they are caught In their course down the stream. The logs are taken outof the lower end of the boom by men employed for the purpose, and all thelumber bearing thes ame mark is rafted together by ropes passed through irou staples driven into the logs at cither end; and these temporary rafts ore then towed to a lifting mill,, whei'e the logs are taken out of the water on iron cars, up an inclined plain, and carried to the ponds where they belong. There they lie until they are needed, and then they are hauled up by a similar iron car, thrown on to a “ gang” running from half a dozen to a dozen parallel saws, and . In passing through the mill once the tree da sawed into a pile of boards. Some of these mills saw two'hundred and fifty ■ thousand feet of lumber every twelve dionrs, and are so many of them that they extend up and down the river a ■distance of live or .six miles. Williams „ sport has become the great lumber mart •of Pennsylvania,, and its hundreds of handsome private residences attest that the truffle is a profitable one. At four o’clock in the afternoon the as ‘soplation. met in Elliott's Academy of .Music, °uo of the neatest little opera ' houses'in the State. An address of wei oome was delivered by the mayor of the dity, who tendered the members of the association a cordial invitation to attend ai public reception at his bouse, in com pany with, the Medical Association of Pennsylvania, which was likewise in session at Williamsport. The address of welcome was responded to by the presl dontof the Association, Henry G. Smith, . Esq., of the Lancaster Intelligencer , who subsequently called the convention to drifter in a few neat and appropriate re marks. An interesting addresson “News papers,” evincing considerable research, and containing much valuable informa tion concerning the history of newspaper printing, was then delivered by J. L. Bingwalt, Esq., of the Philadelphia Evening Telegrqph; and a poem written by;Mr. Williamson, who was uuavoida ; bly absent, was read by Eugene Mundy, of the Proof Sheet, ' , ■The event of the day was the grand banquet at the Herdio House in the even ing;; The guests—to the number of a hundred and sixty ladies aud gentlemen • -r-asqembled in the spaoious parlors of the hotel, and shortly after eight o’clock pro ... needed to the dining-room. After the bountiful repast had been thoroughly . discussed, the tables were cleared, and the following toasts were proposed and responded to: “The State of Pennsylvania," Kespon ded to by W. P- Fnrey, of the Mauoh Chunk Times. “The City of Williamsport.” E. W. Capron, Williamsport Gazette and Bulle tin• “The Press of Pennsylvania.” Hon. H. S.

Cole man, Philadelphia Ledger, “Our Association.” Henry Dar lington, Bucks county Intelligencer . After the dinner a dance was Inaugur ated In the ball room of the hotel, which was participated In by the excursionists and a number of ladies aud gentlemen of Williamsport. Shortly after seveu o’clock, on Thurs day morning, the excursion train started for Watkins, a hundred miles north. For miles we pass through a tugged moun tain country which would possess but few attractions for our Cumberland Valley farmers. Twenty miles north of Elmira, at the head of Seneca Lake, is the town of Watkins—a thriving borough of three thousand inhabitants. Passing through the main street of tire village, aud turn ing to the right where a bridge crosses a mountain stream, we come suddenly to the entrance of Watkins Glen—one of tho greatest natural lea. The first impression made upon our minds was that it was entirely different from what we expected and from any thing we bad ever seen before. ( We bad been walking along the level street, and a sudden turn brought us face to face with a frowning battlement of rook several hundred feet high—through which there was a narrow opening, spanned by a rustic stairway and bridge. We had looked in our Webster aud found that a glen was a depression or space between the hills, but this gave us no idea what to expect at Watkins Glen. It is as If a vast bill, varying in height from a hundred and fifty to three or four hundred feet, bad been rent asunder by some convul sion of nature, and the solid walls of rook separated from each other a distance varying from thirty to a hundred feet. — This gorge extends through the bill a distance of five miles, not In a straight line, but in all sorts of varying curves and angles, presenting a succession of constantly, changing scenes which be wilder the mind by their wild beauty and striking contrasts. The walls on either side sometimes rise perpendicular ly, again slope backwards, and again al most . meet overhead. Throughout the entire length of the glen there flows a noisy little stream—so clear that a small pearl shirt-button can be seen at the depth of five or six feet, in the basins the, water has worn for itself but of the solid rock, . At every step this stream presents some new attraction—now leaping over the rocks and breaking into feathery foam—now plunging into a stone fun nel and almost disappearing.from view, to emerge again, far below, fretted and. fuming from the obstructions in. its pathway—ever and anon whirling around in stone basins;—or spreading out into a broad, smooth surface, as in the Glen' Cathedral, and flowing on without a, murmur. Then there are half a dozen other little springs, dashing down from the mountain top, and taking, all sorts of fantastic shapes. After you get fairly into the glen, and are cut off from the outer world, With nothing fainlliaMn view except the little strip of blue sky above your head, the feeling which takes possession of your.mind is not so much that of admiration ns of dread. At the entrance to Glen Alpha nature seems to have tried to make herself hideous and unnatural. You feel as ifyou were in the presence of some monstrous deformity never intended for mortal eyes. The very insecurity of your pathway lends the charm of adventure to the toilsome clambering up the glen . Now you pass along a shelving rook; where a slip of ;he foot would land you on the rooks or in the water thirty feet below—now you cross a rustic bridge which sways to and fro to your footsteps—now you climb up the face of the rook with the aid of irou braces to cling to with the hands, and foptsteps chiseled .in the stone. But strange to say there have been no serious accidents. One of our party fell into the stream, and got a good wetting, but suff ered uo further damage. Looking up towards the clouds, at the end of Glen Alpha, you see the Glen Mountain House, perched like a bird box among the trees, hundreds of feet over head ; iftid after a ten minutes climb up a dizzy stairway, you reach the hotel, at the top of the mountain. Here the ex cursionists partook of a bountiful dinner provided by E- B. Parsons, the gentle manly proprietor, of the Glen, under the direction of Joshua Jones, the superin tendent of the Mountain House—and washed down the solids with some delic ious sparkling champagne, manufactured by the Pleasant Valley Wine Company, which la one of the largest grape grow injj companies in the United states, one of its vineyards alone covering six thou sand acres. After leaving the Mountain House, you pass along above Glen Obscura, which is well named, for as you gaze down into its depths you see nothing but the blackness of darkness. Then you emerge into Glen Cathedral, the wails of which circle around, on either side; with great regularity, to the height of one hundred and thirty or one hundred and fifty feet, and are aurra.ounted'by a few scattered pine trees, which from below look like so many gothic spires. The surface over which you walk is paved by 11 at ure)with large elate flags, laid as level as a church floor. At the farther end the stream comes dancing down, and tahefi to itself the shape of an altar. Here ail is quiet and solemn, like the ruins of some grand old cathedral; and even the running water is bushed to silence. Then came a scene which Impressed us more forcibly than any other in the glen. A little mountain stream, dropping from somewhere near the skies, after making, several plunges in the hills above, final ly dashes over a shelving rock, a perfect cascade of spray. We passed under this shelving rock, and just at four o’clock the sun peeped down the ravine, through a narrow opening in the overhanging cliffs, and at our feet a gorgeous rainbow spanned the chasm and lighted it up in to marvelous beauty. Never in nature or in art have we seen such a wondrous transformation. Surely this is some fairy dell, and these are mischievous olv.'S, with a glorious halo around them, sprinkling each other with flashing dia monds, aud laughing and shouting with irrepressible glee. The dripping water fails upon your head and shoulders, and splashes you to the knees, the blinding spray dashes into your face, but no one is likely to move until tht cry comes:— “ Move on there—others want to see as well as yourself.” A wealthy gentleman of New York, who visited the glen last summer, was so enraptured with the rainbow fulls that ho has employed a prominent artist to paint the scene for* him, for ten thousand dollars.We saw the artist at his work, and if he succeeds iu transferring the view to canvas, he will do more tymn any artist has ever done before. There are other scones of rare beauty iu the glen, but wo must return to the hotel, for a ride on tho lake has been ton* dered tho excursionists! and we would nob miss it for anything. Passing from tho mountain House up Lake View Av enue to the summit of the hill, wo roach Prospect Point, and hundreds of feet beneath us lies a panoramic view of sur passing loveliness* Tho blue waters of Seneca lake, bordered with green forests, stretch away as far as the eye can reach. The houses in tho village are almost bid den In the foliage, while around ua are handsome and costly monuments to de parted' worth. The ride on the lake was a success, though tho evening was un comfortably cold. The Watkins entertained theexoursionistß with prince ly hospitably. A committee of reception was appointed, hotels and private resi dences were thrown open, carriages were furnished for those who wished to ride, and every thing was freely aud generous ly tendered. We. met one gentleman who was terribly distressed because he had been in Watkinsall day, and hadn’tsuo-. ceeded in spending ten cents. The two . I heßt,.jUotela„lu...tUeu.vUlage„,ar,e.„tbaJFaU. Brook House and the Jefferson House. — We left Watkins feeling that our time had beeu too short to do the Glen justice. Description Is utterly inadequate to por tray,its wonders, and if our want to know what it looks like, they must go themselves, and make arrangements to stay a week when they are there. Tn doing so they will not And themselves alone, for over twenty-five thousand persons visited the Glen last season, and the number will doubtless be doubled during the present summer. As Watkins was filled to overflowing, it was found necessary to send ten coup les to Elmira to pass the night. Being one of the party, we put up at the Rath bhn. house, and were haudaomly enter tained. The gentlemanly proprietor, Mr. H. S. Wadsworth, took us outdriving to Eldridge Park, and through the principal streets. The park contains a natural lake and a number of baudsome pieces of statuary. The city lies In a or five miles wide, surrounded by wooded hills. Towards noon we weire picked up by the excursion train, and proceeded to Minnequa Springs, iu Bradford county, where dinner was awaiting us and our “Sawbones” friends, who had come up on an excursion from Williamsport that morning. The wateis at Minnequa are said to possess wonderful curative prop perties, and the location is iu the moun tains, where the thermpmeter generally ranges about ten degrees lower than at Williamsport. In fact w.e found it un comfortably cold in the open air ; but a douce-was Inaugurated iu the .evening, which warmed the party up, and they “ tripped the light fantastic ” until the train arrived at, twelve o’clock, which carried a large portion of the party off to their homes-and ended the excursion;— Messrs. Schofield & Barry, of the Herdic House, are the lessees of Minnequa. We left Miuuequa at half past seven on Sat urday morning, and reached Carlisle, at three In the afternooni satisfied that the ’first summer meeting of the Pennsylva nia Editorial Association-was a grand success—thanks to the indefatigable efT orts and admirable executive tact.of the Secretary of the Association, R. 8, Menamiu, of tho Philadelphia Printera } Circular , who was the originator of the project, and deserves the entire credit of its successful execution. We desire to make public acknowledg ment of the kindness of George J. Ball, Assistant General Passenger Agent of the Pennsylvania railroad, and A. R. Fiske, Superintendent of the Northern Control Bailway, who issued the general excursion tickets, and arranged the run ning of the trains to suit the convenience of the excursionists; and also Col. O. N. Lull, for excursion tickets over the Cum berland Valley Eoad. Robberies.—On Wednesday night last, some person broke into the dwelling and store of Adam Dysert, on East Lea ther street, and stole therefrom three pair of boots, a pocket book containing three or four dollars, and a shawl- The robbery was not discovered until the next morning, and of Course the thief escaped detection. On Sunday night, as one of the young ladies in attendance at the Mary Insti tute, was about to retire, and had turned out the gas, she discovered a man sitting on a ledge beneath the window, and at once gave the alarm- The man jumped down and ran down through the yard, leaving behind, in bis baste, bis boots and coat, which he bad taken off before climbing up the trellis work which led to the second story. 'On the Saturday previous, the young lady alluded to re ceived a cheek from home, and was on the way to bank to get It cashed, when she met one of our. merchants, with whom she was accustomed.to deal,’and who waa also on the way to bank. He told her she needn’t go to the bank, aud taking his bank book paid her sixty or seventy dollars, the amount of the cheek, while standing on the sidewalk. She thereupon returned to the seminary, went to her room, where she could read ily have been seen from the street, and lucked the mqney up, and the individual whose plans were frustrated, was doubt less some oue who had witnessed the transaction referred to. On Thursday night last, some one en tered the bouse of Capt. John Wallace, in stole therefrom a pooket book, oonlainingover s22o—two one hun dred dollar bills, two ten dollar bills, and some small notes. These were taken from Mr. Wallace’s pantaloons pocket, in bis sleeping room. The robbers- then went to the sitting room, where they ob tained a watch and a shawl. On the same nighty burglars entered the house of Dr. Brim, in Newvllle, and stole the Doctor’s best coat and a pooket book containing $2O. Neither of the families discovered the robberies until next morning. Police Items. —A dozen fine chickens were stolen from .the coop of Andrew B. Zeigier, corner of Louther and Bedford streets, one night last week. A lot of “Bossy” Wetzel's chickens were stolen from his farm, in North Mid dleton township, last week, Ann Cooper, (colored) was arpested by Constable Sauno, and committed for stealing four or five dollars from Lizzie Humes. Funny and Mary Hopp were arfesfed by Officer Sanno, for assault on John Heckman with a butcher knife. John Boney was committed for disor derly conduct. A German named Gaesht took posses sion of the stable in the occupancy of James Duhyan, and when Dunyau came, ran him out. Gaesht was arrested by Constable ean'no and committed to pris on. '*Jaok Scott (colored), was arrested, last Friday, for threatening to kill a man named Reed with a butcher knife. A man named Mitchell, who works at Smeltzs* Coaoh Factory, got on a rampago and cleared the establishment. He was arrested by Officer Sanno and committed to prison. i)KOWNED.— ,About two o'clock on last Thursday afternoon, as A. D. Bepman, of New Cumberlarid, was returning from his labors, at the Baldwin Steel Works, he discovered the body of a man lying In the river, In close proximity to the wes tern bank of Hine’s Island. He called on Mr. Hlne, who was at work oloiie by, for assistance, and the two proceeded to remove the body from the water, discov ering at a glance that the unfortunate individual was Harry Powell, of Hew Cumberland. The sad news was Imme diately communicated to his frlbnds in that place, who hastened at once to the scene of the accident. Dr. T. \V. Hoop made every possible edort to restore ani mation. but the vital spark had fled, and no human agency could call it back* The deceased was for many years afflicted with epilepsy, contracted in early life from an attagk of'scarlet fever, in its mostmalignnntforin.Ashohail.loft-hla., ho'me, a few hours before, to fish In the river, - it.is supposed he had afibaud fell Into the water. Ho was an exemplary Christian and a good citizen. There seems now to be ho doubt that the railroad from Shireraaustown to Dll.ls burg will be built. At a the Miramar Railroad Company, at Newvllle, it was resolved ‘‘That the Miramar Iron Company will first complete and put In running condition their road from some point east of Bhireraanstown, via Mill town to Dlllsburg. Provided, that the subscription of 560,000 from Dlllsburg and vicinity, and the subscription "of $20,000 from Milltown and vicinity, arc guaranteed to the company.” - Benefits and Importance op Life Insurance.— I The importance of securing a policy of life insurance to a man who wishes to make some certain provision for bis widow, or family, in the event of his death, can hardly be over-estimated. In these daysof business fluctuations, the rich man T>f to-day* is often the poor man of to-morrow." -To insure one’s life, then, is the highest exorcise of worldly wisdom. Illustrations are often better than arguments. Let the following card, then, speak in favor of the “ Charter ’Oak,” represented'hero by their energet-* Ic and gentlemanly agent, J. C.

M, Evans, Dear Sir; In the year 1857 I was attacked with Dyspepsia. From that time until the year 18tU I continued graving worse, and wds reduced from a strong and 1 healthy man to n more living skeleton, weighing but lIP pounds.

QNE MILLION OF LIVES SAVED. it Is ono of tho remarkable facts of this re markable ago. not merely that so many nersons are the victims of dyspepsia or Indigestion, but its willing victims, Now, wo would not bo un derstood to say that any'ouo .regaids dyspepsia with favor, or feels disposed to rank It among the luxuries of life. Fat irom It. Those who nave experienced us torments woujd scout such an idea. 'All dread It. and would gladly diapemo with Its unpleasant familiarities. Mark Topley 1 who was Jolly under all the trying circumstan ces In which he was placed, never nud an attack ot dyspepsia, or his Jollity would have speedily forsaken him. Men and women sometimes suffer Its tortures uncomplainingly, but whoev er heard of a person who enjoyed them ? Of all the multifarious discuses to which the human system Is liable,there Ik perhaps no one so uonoraliy prevalent us dyspepsia. There are diseases more acute and puiumi, and which more frequently prove fatal, but none, the ef fects of wuich are so depressing tp theniind and so positively, distressing to the oody. If there Is a wretched being In the world It is A CONFIRMED DYSPEPTIC. But it Is uotourlutcntlon to dlscautoulbe hor rors of Dyspepsia. To describe them truthfully is simply an uupoiislbllUy, but It Is possibly to point out a remedy.. Wo nave said that dyspep sia is perhaps the most universal of human dis eases. This la' emphatically tho case in the • Drilled'’‘aiittcs; - "Whether thls"gonemr'prova-'“' leuco is duo to' tho character 01 tho food, the metuod of us preparation, or iho hasty manner In which Ills usually swallowed. Is not our pro- «* vlnco to explain. The great fact with which wo are called to deal Is this: • ‘ DYSPEPSIA PREVAILS almost universally. Nearly every other person you meet Is a vic tim, an apparently willing one, forworo thlsnot tho case, why bo niady f uilerers, when a certain, speedy and safe remedy is within iho easy reach of all who desire to avail themselves of It? But the majority will not. Blinded by preju dice, or deterred by some other unexplained in fluence, they refuse to accept tho relief profer ed them.- They turn a deaf ear to tho testimony of tho thousands whoso suderlugs have been al leviated, and with strange Infatuation, appear to cling with dtsperuto determination to their ruthless tormentor. But says a dyspeptic; What is this remedy? to which wo reply: This great alleviator of human suffering Is almost ns widely known as the English language. It has. alluyed tho agonies of thousands, and Is to-day carrying comfort and encouragement to thon sands or olhets. This acknowledged panacea Is none other than Dr. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS. Would yVju know more of tho merits of this wonderful medicine than can bo learned from tho experience of others ? Try it yourself, and when it has fulled to fulfil tho assurance of its elllcacy given by the proprietor, then abandon faith in'lt. LET IT BE REMEMBERED, first oif nil, that Hoofland’s Gorman Bitters J« uol a rum beverage. They are not alcoholic in auy sense of the term. They are composed wholly of the pure Juice or vital principle of roois, This is not a mere assertion. The extracts from which they are compounded are prepared by one of the ablest German chemists. Unlike any other Bitters In the market, they are 'wholly free from spirituous ingredients. The objections which hold with so much force against preparations of this class, namely—that a desire lor lutoxlcatfng drinks Is stimulated by iholc use, are not valid la the cose ol the German Blturs. So far from encouraging or mculutiug a’Vtaste or desire for Inebriating coverages, It may bo confidently as sorted that thelr.tendoucy Is in a diametrically opposite direction.- Their effects can bo BENEFICIAL. ONLY In all cases of the biliary system. Hoofland’s German Bitters stand without uu equal, acting promptly and vigorously upon UioLivor, they remove its torpidity and cause healthful secre tion of bile—thereby supplying tbo stomach with tho mosi Indispensable elements of sound digestion In proper proportions. They give tone to tho-stomuch-stlmujaiing its functions, grid enabling it to perform no duties as nature de signed it should-do. They impart v.gor and strength to the entire system, causing- tbo pa tient to feel like another being—in fact, giving him a new lease of life. THEY PURIFY THE BLOOD. cleansing the vital fluid of all hurlful Impuri ties aud supplying them with the elements of genuine heulthluluess. In a word, there is scarcely a disease In which they cannot he safely and beneficially employed; but lu that most generally prevalent distressing and dread ed disease, Dyspepsia, THEY STAND UNRIVALED. Now, there are certain classes of persons to whom extreme Bitters are not only unpalata ble,but-who And it Impossible to take them without positive dlscomiort. For such DiU HOOFLAND’S GERMAN TONIC has been specially prepared. It Is Intended for use where a slight alchohol stimulant Is requir ed In connection With the well-known Tonic properties of the pure German Bitters. This Tonic contains all the Ingredients of the Blttert, but so flavored as to remove the extreme bitter ness. This preparation -is not only palatable, but combines,'ln modified form, all tbo virtues of tbo German Bitters. The solid extracts of some of Nature’s choicest restoratives are held In solution by a spirituous agent ot the purest quality. In cases of languor or excessive debil ity, where the system appears to have become exhausted of |ts enengles, HOOFLAND’S TONIC acts with almost marvelous effect. It not only stimulates tbo flagglugmnd wasting energies, but Invigorates ana pormanetly strengthens Its action upon the Liver and Stomach thorough, perhaps loss prompt than tho BltterS, when the bame quantity is taken is none tho less certain. Indigestion, Bllllousuess, Physicalor Nervous Prostration,' lold readily to Its potent Influence. It gives tho invalid a now and stronger hold upon life, removes depression of spirits, and In spires oheerfuldess. • Jt supplants the. pain of disease with tho ease and comfort of perfect lt gives strength to weakness, throws despondency to the winds, and starts tho re stored invalid upon a new and gladsome career. But Dr. Hoofland’s benefactions to the human race are not confined to his celebrated GERMAN BITTERS, or his invaluable Tonic. Ho has prepared an other 'medicine; wolch Is rapidly winning its way to popular favor because of its ’intrinsic merits. This is HOOPLAND’S PODOPHYLLIN PILLS. a perfect substitute for mercury, without any of mercury's evil qualities. These wonderful Pills, which are intended to act upon the Liver, are mainly composed of Podophyllln, or tho VITAL PRINCIPLE OP THE MANDRAKE ROOT. Now we desire the reader to distinctly under stand that this extract of the Mandrake Is many times more powerful thaa the Mandrake itself. It Is the medicinal virtues of this health-giving plant In a perfectly pure and highly concentra ted form. Hence It Is that two of the Podopbyl iln Pills constitute a full dose, while anywhere six to eight or a handful of other preparations of the Mandrake are required. Tho Phodophyl lln ACTS DIRECTLY ON THE LIVER, stimulating Its functions and causing It to make Its biliary secretions In regular and proper quantities. The injurious results which invari ably follow tho use of mercury,ls entirely avoided by their use. But It Is not upon the Liver only that their powers are exerted. Tho extractorMandrakecoutalncd In them is skill fully combined with four other extracts, one of which acts upon the stomach, one upon the up per bowels, one upon tne lower bowels, and one prevents any griping effect, thus producing a pill that lullonces the digestive and alimentary sys tem, Ir an equal ana harmonious manner, and Its action entlrelYfreo from nausea, vomiting or griping pains common to all other purgatives. Possessing these much desirable qualities, the Podopbyllln becomes Invaluable as a FAMILY MEDICINE. No household should be without them. They are perfectly safe, require but two for an ordina ry dose, are prompt and elllclenl in action, and when used? la connection with Dr. Hoofland’s German Bitters, or Tonlo, may bo regarded as certain specifics In all cases of LiverComplniut. Dyspepsia, or any of tho disorders to which the system Is ordinarily subject. Tbo ' PODOPHYLLIN PILLS. act upon the stomach and bowels, carrying oil - Improper obstructions, while the Bitters or To nlo purify tho blood, strengthen and Invigorate tho frame, give Cone, and appetite to tho stom ach, and thus build up the Invalid anew. Dr. Hoolland, having provided Internal reme dies for diseases, has given tho world one main ly for external application, In tho wonderful preparation known ns DU. HOOFLAND’S GREEK OIL. This Oil Is a sovereign remedy for pains and aches of all kinds. Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Toothache, chil blulns. Sprains, Burns, ruin In the Back and Lolus, Ringworms, «tc.. all yield to Its external application. The number ofcurcs effected by It Is astonishing and they are increasing every day. Taken Internally, it is a cure for Heart-burns, Kidney Diseases, Sick Headaches, Colic, Dysen tery, Cholera Morbus, Cramps, Rains in the Stomach, Colds, Asthma, «&c. The Greek Oil Is composed entirely of healing gums and essential oils, 'iho principal eugredl ent is an oily substance, procured In the South orn part of Greece. Its effects as a destroyer o( Eajn are Irnly magical. Thousands have been onefltted by its use, and a trial by those who are skeptical will thoroughly convince them of its inestimable value. These remedies will bo sent by express to any locality, upon application to the Principal Oflioo, at the German Medicine Store, No. 631 Arch St,.
