NATIONAL TONIC,
A certain Cure for Ague, Fever,
and Dyspepsia,
IN our summer and fall months many sections of our
country are prostrated fcy BIT.LIOUS FEVER and
AGUE and FEVER - It has been OUT particular study to
find out some remedy to stop this dreadful arourge, and
think, in this TONIC we have effected this great object.
It is also we think the very best remedy in Dyspepsia,
and if our directions are follow ed, w ill not fail to effect
a cure.
In a letter dated, M.iy 23<1, 1 r-ID, our Agent, Mr F.ltas
Raub, of Wrightsvilb', \ urk county, Pa.,says:—I have
never known any remedy fur Fever and digue equal to
your invaluable National Tonic. It has given universal
satisfaction, and has i ured i uses of Agile of years stand
ing, and after the failure of all other medicines made ue
of. Mr llenry lieverson. of the same place, says in his
certificate, dated 22d March. !•■ !. • I applied to 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, to try a bottle of your Na
tional Tonic, and to my great satisfaction,before 1 hid
used half of it, I felt completely cured, though 1 contin
ued the use of it till I had taken two bottles ' In a joint
certificate from M' s-rs. Mi!s Hoke. William Blackson,
and James l> Brown, of the same place, they say—'Hav
ing tried nearly all the remedies within our reach with
out slice -s, we at lat purchased some of\ our .hTational
J'unir. which has completely cured us We, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it to the nol ice of all persons af
flicted with that terrible disease as the best remedy yet
discovered.'

READ FI'RTJIER A FEW FACTS
FROM " Tut WELDON HERALD," published at Weldon,
N C , Januarv 24, l s so, which said—
•• PATENT MEDICINES.*'
"It is r try seldom that we make any allusion to Patent
Medicines, either approving or otherwise l (.fortunately
for tbe country, and for honest and conscientious inven
tor* and venders of these medicines, the land is becoming
Hooded w itb rjuai k pre|>aratioiis, that are made alone for
profit and are tit not even for the dogs. In this stale of
things it is hard to tell w Inch are, and which are not worth
having It a person gets an iudifferent medicine the first
time be purchases, he i- very apt to condemn the whole
of them and buy no more, and inventors must only blame
those of their number, (who ignorantly combine plain
medicines together for the purpose ofmaking money.) for
the ill success K Inch attend* the efforts of the deserv iris "
" We believe Dr C M. Jackson's 'Hoofland's German
Billets' to be a most excellent medicine, and one that
should be highly popular in these days of Temperance ;
for they are altogether I'tpetable in their composition,
without one drop of .lltuhohe Spirits in them. Tins ined
icine ib innoi enl. bin strengthening in its effects, and rich
ly deserving of an unbounded popularity, which, when it
becomes know n, t w dt, no doubt, fully enjoy."
Jt OOE M M. NOAH said, in hi" WEEKLY MESSEN
GER," January i. Is.'-O
" r>r Hoojiantt's fierman Bittern - Here is a prepara
tion wlnch the leading presses in the t'nion appear io he
Unanimous in recommending, and the reason is obvious.
It is made nfti r a prescription furnished by one of the
most celebrated physicians of modern times—the late
llr t hristophrr Wilhelm Hooffand, professor to the I'ni
verslty of Jena, private physician to the king of Prussia,
and one of the greatest medical writers Germany has ever
produced. He was emphatically thediemynf isnivs,
and therefore a medicine of which he was ihe inventor
andendorsor may be confidently relied on. He specially
recommended it in l.iver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility,
Vertigo, Aridity of the Stomach, Constipation, and all
complaints arising froin a disordered condition of the
stomach, the Inn and the intestines Nine Philadelphia
papers express their conviction of its excellency, and sev
eral of the editors speak of its effects from their own indi
vidual experience I'nder these circumstances, \vc feel
warranted, not only in calling the attention of our readers
to the present proprietor's (Dr C M Jackson's) prepara
tion, but in recommending the article to all afflicted "
MORE EVIDESCE.
The " Piut.snio.pilis Siti dv Cuetts," the beet
! family newspaper published in the I'nited State# Tit*
: editor says of
I IT. IfotiJlujid's German. Hitters:
| "It is seldom that wc reronimcnd w hat arc termed Pat
ent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of our
! readers : and, therefore, when we recommend Dr Hoof
land's German Bitters, we wish it to be distinctly under
stood that we are nut speakingofthe nostrums of the day,
i "tat arc noised about for a brief period andjthen forgotten
i after it has done its guilty tare of mischief,but of a med
icine long established, universally prised, and who h lias
I met the hearty approval of the faculty itself."
Evidence upon evidence has been received
(like the foregoing) from all sections of ibe
| Unieu, the last three .years, and the strongest
testimony in its favor, is, that there is more ot
it used in the practice of the regular Physi
cians el Philadelphia than all other nostrums
: combined, a fact that can easily he established,
nnd 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
| nnd I'yppepsia, no one can doubt after using it
as directed. Ii acts specifically upon the stoin
j och end luer; it is preferable to calomel in all
: bilious diseases— the effect is immediate.

] This Purifier is the most wonderful and astonishing rem

most miraculous cures of
Scrofula, Fever Sores, Salt lllieum,
SYPHILIS, and other eruptive and skin diseases, viz : Ery
sspt.las, Sores, Ulcers, Ulcerated Sore Mouth and Throat.

diseases. THOUSANDS of such diseases 1UIT been t „ r .. j
by this PURIFIER, and cured by the use oi FOUR
TIMES
Less Quantity, at Less Cost
by four-fold, than ever such diseases w.rc before or since,
cured, by Sarsaparilla, or any other remedy. What, then.
Is the question for those interested to decide, as to economy
and health? FIRST— IViII it cure mu complaint t SEC

will, then it is FOUR TIMES CHEAPER than Bursals,
rilla. And to prove this we otter one case of cure, out of
i the many cases of
| MOST HORRID SCROFULA.
To realize the great power of this mpdicine as a purifier,
read, in our Pamphlets, the perfect cure effected on Mr. J.
B Has kin, of Rome, Oneida county, If. Y. He was confined
to his bed One Yeai —was not expected to live twenty-four
hours loneer —his neck was eaten nearly off. from ear to
ear—a hole was eaten through the Wind-pipe —his ear nearly
eaten out—the use of one arm aeslroytd —an Ulcer, as large
as a man's hand, had nearly eaten through his side—ani
there were on him, in all,
Twenty Large, Deep, Discharging Fleers,
which were ALL CURED, and he restored to heal-h and
stiyugth to labor again, by the use of ONLY TWELVE
BOTTLES. Tif.s wonderful cure is certified to by
Fourteen Respectable Witnesses.
And It is the greatest cure, the moat undoubtedly substantiat
ed, of one of the most horrid and most hopeless cases of
' Scrofula that has ever been cured since the world was cre
ated—completely establishing the great power and certain
Jfirary of the medicine.

We have been so often deceived by such medicines not
proving to be equal to their recommendations, and therefore
would not sell, when their want of efficacy was known,
that we considered it unprofitable to keep such, and were
therefore prejudiced against Brant's, supposing it to be no
better than many others we have on sale After we had
received Brant's, J, (A. Holtstander) was persuaded from
reading the pamphlet to take a bottle of the Pulmonary Bal

for about ten months, end our friends were alarmed and
fearful that he would find nothing to relieve or cure her
Bjt r.otwithitanding our prejudices to patent medicines,
we are r.bhe'i to say. and cheerfully confess, that BRANT'S
BALSAM and PURIFYING EXTRACT, can be depended on in
preference to any or ell of the many kinds that have been
'eft with ua for sale. My wife was immediately relieved
in her cough, and before she had finished using the firs?
bottle, began to gain strength arid health, and only three
bottles effected a perfect cure. The PURIFYING EXTRACT
I have personally used for a general debility of the system,
and I have no hesitancy in saying that it is the best medi

found In every instance where we have sold these medi

satisfaction."
