PURE "FRESH COD LIVER OIL
THIS new and valuable medicine, now used by the
medical profession with such astonishing efficacy in
the cure of
Pulmonary Consumption, Scrofula, Chro
nic Rheumatism, Gout, General De
bility, Complaints of the Kid
neys, tyc., 4*C.,
is prepared frouj the liver of the Cod Pish for medkal
use, expressly for our sales.
(Extract from the London Medical Journal.)
''C.J. B William., M. D., F. R. S., Professor of Medi
cine in University College, London, Consulting Physi
cian to the Hospital for consumption, Ac., says: I have
prescribed the Oil in above four hundred cases of tubercu
lous disease of the Lungs, in different stages, which have
been under my care the last two years and a half. In
the large number of cases, 206 out of 231, its use was fol
lowed by marked and unequivocal improvement, varying
in degree In different cases, fiom a temporary retard i
tton of the progress of the disease and a mitigation of dis
tressing symptoms, up toa uiore or less complete restor
ation to apparent health
"The effect of the Cod l.iver Oil inmost of these cases
was very remarkable. Even in a few days the cough
was mitigated, the expectoration diminished in quantity
and opacity, the night sweats ceased, the pulse became
slower, and of better volume, and the appetite, flesh and
strength were gradually improved.
"In conclusion, 1 repeat that the pure fresh oil from
the Liver of the Cod is more beneficial in the treatment
of Pulmonary Consumption than any agent, medicinal,
dietetic or regimenal, that has yet been employed "
As ire hare made arrangement* to procure tie Cod Liver
Oil, fresh from head quarters, it can nor he had chemiraily
pure by the single bottle, or in boxes of one dozen each.
Its wonderful efficacy has induced numerous spurious
imitations. As its success depends entirely on its purity,
too much care cannot he used in procuring it genuine.
Every bottle having on it our irntteu signature maybe
depended upon as genuine
Pamphlets containing an analysis of the Oil, with no
tices of it from Medical Journals, w ill he sent to Ihoee

I NATIONAL TONIC,
A certain Cure for Ague, Fever,
and Dyspepsia,
; TV our summer and fait mouths many sections of our
J country are prosiraled by BiLLIOL'S FEVER and
i AGI E and FEVER. —It has been our particular study to
lind out some remedy to stop this dreadful stourge, and
think, in ibis TONIC we have effected this great object,
it is also we think the very best remedy m Dyspepsia,
| and if our dire lions are follow ed, will not fail to effect
! a cure.
j In a letter dated, May UM, l s !9,our Agent, Mr. Elias
j Rsub, of WrigUtsvitle, Vork county, Pa , says:—l have
never known any remedy for kittr and Ague equal to
y oflr invaluable National Tonic. It has given universal
| satisfaction, and has cured cases o. Ague of years stand
: ing, a::J after the failure of all other medicine* made use
i of. Mr. Henry Be verson, of the same place, says in his
j certificate, dated 'J'Jd March, 1819, ' I applied to a number
r,f Physic i itis, and also vised a variety of the most popu
i tar Ague Mixtures at different limes, but al! without the
Jesireil effect; no permanent cure havir.g been afforded.
I wa-* at leugth induced, at the recommnndation of your
j worthy Agent at thw place, to try a bottle of your ,\a
tu nal Tonic, and to my great satisfaction,before I had
j used half of it, 1 felt completely cured, though I contin
ued the use of it tilt I had taken tw o bottles.' In a joint
' certificate from Messrs. Miles Hoke, YVilliaui Blackson,
I and Jaines D Brown, of the same place, they say—'Hav
' ing tried nearly all the remedies within our reach with
out success, we at last purchased some of your Xational
Tonu, which has completely cured ui. W, therefore,

Compound rivrup, it is so concentrated that the dose is
very small, so combined as to ensure a purgative opera
tion, and so palatable as lo be taken, not ouly with ease,
. but with positive pleasure.
The pre cise composition of tl.is syrup and the mode of
preparing it, are the result of a series of experiments
continued for years Before <>tf*-rir.g it for sale, it was
subjected to the test of exiwrience in the hands of emi
nent physicians, in Philadelphia arid t-lsetv here, who have
! recommended it in the highest terms, and still employ It
in their practice. In addition In this evidence of its mer

■lth. A respectable merchant of Ohio, on a late visit to
1 Philadelphia, stated, that some time since he had been ap
; plied to by a customer for a vial of *s Ver
s mifuge for his son. Not having the article asked for, he
i advised a trial of Harris, Turner A-Hale's Compound
; Syrup of ripigelia and gave ln:u ~ pari of a bottle which
was all thst remained in Ibc store. A day or tw o after
this the gentleman returning to the store, expressed his
surprise and delight at the effect of the riyrup, declaring
it had expelled t!00 worms and entirely relieved his sou.
j The merchant added an expression of his great regret that
, he had not had on hands a bottle of the riyrup at the time
j when his own little daughter died, us he confidently be
| iieved it would have saved her life.
