NATIONAL TONIC,
A certain Cure for Ague, Fever,
and Dyspepsia.
T V our summer and fall month* many sections of our
L country are prostrated by BILLIOUH I'KV F.R anil
AGUE and FEVER.—It has been our particular study to ,
find out some remedy to slop this dreadful scourge, and
think, in this TONIC we have effected this great object
It is also we think lite very best remedy in Dyspr
and if our directions are followed, will not fail to effect j
a cure.
in a letter dated, May 23d, 1819, our Agent, Mr. Elias
R.aub, of Wrightsviile, York county, Pa., says :—1 have 1
never known any remedy for Fitter and Ague equal to I
your invaluable National Tonic. It has given universal
satisfaction, and has cured cases of Ague of years stand- j
lug, and after the failure of all other medicines made use I
of. Mr. Henry Beverson, of the. same place, says in his
certificate, dated 22d March, 1849, ' 1 applied lo a number •
of Physicians, and also used a variety of the most popu- '
lar Ague Mixtures at different times, but all without the \
desired effect; no permanent cure having been afforded.
I was at length induced, at the recommendation of your
worthy Agent at this place, lo try a bottle of your Na
tional Tonic, and to my great satisfaction, before I had
used halfofit, I felt completely cured, though I contin
ued the use of it till I had taken two bottles.' In a joint
certificate from Messrs Miles lfoke, Y\ illiam Blackson,
and James 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 .Vational
Tome, which has completely cured us. We, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it loTlre notice of all persons af
flicted with that tet ritrle disease as the best remedy yet ,
discovered.'

Philadelphia, stated, that some time since he had been a[e
plied to by a customer for a vial of "a Ver
mifuge for his son. Not having rhe article asked for, he -
advised a trial of Harris, Turner & Hale's Compound (
Hyrupof Spigelia and gave turn a part of a bottle which ;
was all that remained in the store. A day or two after i
this the gentleman returning to the store, expressed his
surprise and delight at the eifect of the Syrup, declaring
it had expelled 200 worms and entirely relieved his son. |
The merchant added an expression of his great regret that
he had not had on hands a bottle of the Syrup at the time
when ins own little daughter died, as he confidently lie- i
Iteved it would have saved her life.

j CHAS ROBINSON, ESQ , East on, MD., In a letter tn Dr
i Jackson, January 9, lsso, said—
"My wife and myself have received more benefit from
I your medicine than any other we have ever taken for the
Dyspepsia and Diver disease."
"THE TENTH I.EOIO*," published at Woodstock,Vs.,
January 10, lbfiO, said—
" .4 GREAT MEDICINE."
" We have uniformly refrained from recommending to
the public any of the various Pateut .Medicines of the
day, unless thoroughly convinced of their value. Among
I those we consider worthy of notice is the German BiUers,
invented by Dr. Hon fund, and prepared by Dr. Jackson,
■ in Philadelphia. One instance in particular, in which the
superior virtues of this medicine has been tested, has fal
len under our observation. During the last summer, a
son of MR ABBAHAM GRVBIEL, "f this county, was very
seriously afflicted with Liver Complaint, and after trying
in vain various remedies, he pur< hated a bottle of the
' flitters, aud afier using it, was so much relieved of his
| distressing malady, that he procured another bottle, and
is restored cnttreh to health "

" PATENT MEDICINES
"It is very seldom that ve make any allusion to Patent
Medicines, either approving or otherwise. Unfortunately
; for the country, and for honest and conscientious Inven
tors and venders of these medicines, the land is becoming
i flooded with quack preparations, that are made alone for
profit and are fit not even for the dogs. In thisstate of
i things i: is hard to tell which are, and which are not worth
having If a person gets an indifferent medicine the first
j time he purchases, he is very apt to condemn the whole
of them and buy no more, and inventors must only blame
i those of their number, (who ignorantly combine plain
medicine* together for the purpose of making money,) for
the ill success w Inch attends the efforts of the deserving "
•' We believe Dr. C. M Jackson's ' Hoofland's German
Bitters* to be a moat excellent medicine, and one that
should be highly popular in these days of Temperance ;
■ fur they are altogether Vegetable In their composition,
without one drop of -lleaholtc Spirit* in thein. This med
.cine is innocent, but strengthening in its effects, and rich
ly deserving of an unbounded popularity, which, when It
becomes known, it \\ ill, no doubt, fully enjoy "
Jines M. M.NOAH said, jn his " WEEKLY MSSSEV
OEH," January a, IS3O
" t>r Hooffand's German Bitter* —Here is a prepara
tion which the leading presses in the Union appear to be
unanimous in recommending, and the reason is obvious.
It is made alter a prescription furnished by one of the
most celebrated physicians of modern times—the late
Dr Christopher Wilhelm Hoofland, professor to the Uni
versity of Jena, private physician to the king of Prussia,
and one of the greatest medic al writers Germany has ever
produced, lie was emphatically the enetny of humbug,
and therefore a medicine of which he was the inventor
and endorsor may be confidently relied on. He specially
recommended it in I.iver Complaint, Dvpepsia. Debility.
Vertigo, Acidity of ihe Stomach, Constipation, and all
complaints arising from a disordered condition of the
stomach, the liver and the intestines Nine Philadelphia
paper* express their conviction of its excellency, and sev
eral of the editors speak of its effects from their own indi
vidual experience. Under these circumstances, we feel
warranted, not only in railing the attention of our readers
to tlie present proprietor's (Dr C. M Jackson's) prepara
tion. but in recommending the article to all afflicted."
MORE EVIDENCE.
The "futLrasu'RU SATURDAY GAZETTE." the best
family newspaper published In the United Stales The
editor says of
Dr. HooflaniTs German Bitters:
"It is seldom that ivc recommend what are termed Pat
ent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of our
readers ; and, therefore, w hen we recommend Dr. Iloof
lnnd's German Hitlers, we wish it to be distinctly under
stood that we arc not speaking of the nostrums of the day,
that are noised about for a brief period and'then forgotten
after it has done its guilty race of mischief,but of a med
icine long established, universally prized, and which has
met the hearty approvaj of the faculty itself."
Evidence upon evidence has been received
(like the foregoing) from all sec'tons of the
Union, the last three years, and the strongest
testimony in its favor, is, that there is more of
it used in the prnctice of the regular Physi
cians of Philadelphia than all other nostrums
combined, a fact liiatcan easily be established,
and fully proving that a scientific preparation
will meet with their quiet approval when pre
sented even in this form.
That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint
and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt after using it
as directed. It acts specifically upon the stom
ach and liver; it is preferable to calomel in all
bilious diseases —the effect is immediate.
They can be administered to KKM AI.K or INFANT
with safety and reliable benefit, at any time.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
T bis medicine has attained that high charac
ter which is necessary for all medicines to at
tain to induce counterfeiters to put forth a spu
rious article at the risk of the lives of those
who are innocently deceived
fjook well to the marks of the genuine.
