My Vegetable Anti-Dyspcpxia Bitlers.
| This Medicine is a certain cure for Dyspepsia in its
| very worst forms. Thousands of cases have been com
j pletely cured by il within the last year, which have
! been entirely despaired of by the regular family physi
cians. We do not recommend it to cure everything—we
; recommend it to cure Dyspepsia, and ihe diseases orisi
noting from it, and that it will cure in almost every case,
i and it is recommended for nothing else. In many m
j stances, even the worst of cases have been completely
' cured in two and three months, but it depends somewhat
| npon the constitution of the patient. We would say to
| all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine
i a fair trial, and if it fails to do good, your money will be
I returned.
A LSO,
My Vegetable Worm Powders.
| This is the most wonderful Worm Destroyer ever
; known, and at the same lime, so pleasant to take, that
' almost every child will be fond of it, and many instances
i have been known of children crying for more after once
■ taking it.
'I his medicine is in the form of a powder, the only
i medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a
i principle entirely different from any other medicine ever
administered hy any other physician. It is the only
! medicine which has no Worm-seed Oil or Turpentine
j combined with it, which is believed by all other physi
; ciai.s, to be Ihe only two things which will destroy
j worms, and these two things combined, together with
I castor oil, are the active principles of alt other worm
' medicines, which every jierson who has ever tasted or
smelled, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous
' medicines, ami on account of which, there isgenerallv
j something added to destroy this nauseous taste, and in
order to do litis, it must be something stronger than the
medicine ilseif, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy
pottle of its medicinal properties. These powders are
simple and so harmless, that a child may eat a whole box
at once, and it will not be hurt, while at the same time,
the print iplc upon which it acts being different from any
thing else ever used, it will destroy all kinds of Worms
j with a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy
the scat worms, or Ascarides, and long, round worms, or
, Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destrnc
; lion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one person.
If your children have any symptoms of worms, try
these powders, and in nine cases out of ten, you will ncv
! or use any other. These are also warranted.
These medicines are all separate, and one for each dis
: ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re
j commended, as many other medicines are, to cure some
j fifteen or twenty diseases, and all of different natures, i
i 1 but they are each to cure but one disease, and that they
will do in ninety-nine rases out of every hundred, and
where they have a fair trial and fail in all cases, the I
j money will be returned

JOStAII C. YOUNG, Dauphin, Dauphin county, Pa.,
in a letter to Dr. Jackson, of May 5,1851, said:
j "For a lone time I was afflicted with general debility
'■ and intestinal weakness, cos fineness, for which 1 used
many different remedies, without change. At last 1 acj
cidentally stumbled upon Hoofland's German Bitters,
; prepared by you. I took a few bottles according to di
rections, and was completely cured. 1 have not been so
: healthy for ten years as I have been since I took your
! bitters, which was about one year ago. Some of my
neighbors are now using them, and deriving great ben
: efit."
ANOTHER LETTLP.,
From Dr. J. C. GILES, .Yew ton Hamilton , Pa., said:
. *• I have used a half dozen of your German Hitters mj -
self, for Liver Complaint and diseases of a nervous char
acter, resulting from the abuse of mercury. Iwaspoi
| goned and affected with spasms from the use of this lat
ter article, and jour German Hitters wss the first article
from which 1 obtained relief, although I have not jet
quite recovered. All ulio have used this lueiliciuo of
j yours speak well of it."
DYSPEPTICS AND SKEPTICS, READ.
In three-fourths of the cases of diseased Liver, Stom
ach and Nerves, the effect of Dr. Hootland's Celebrated
German Bitters, (prepared only by Dr. Jackson, at the
Medicine Store, Pit Arch street.) is as positive as in the
case of A. A. Kaufman, Esq. Head, what he says !
LANCASTER, April 20, ISSO.
lirsperted Sir: t have been for a series of years afflict
ed with Dyspepsia, Inactivity of the I.iver, and Nervous
Debility. My mental powers have been so reduced a
to render me quite unfit for the transaction ofany kind
of hu-inc-s. After consulting many eminent physicians,
and using their prescriptions, and after using the most
popular remedies of the day, supposed to be applicable, to
my case, I always failed to have permanent relief. A
friend, with much persuasion, induced mc to try a bottle
of your celebrated Bitters. I have used one bottle, and
this day (.oimnenced the second. I can with cheerful
ness state that it has happily improved me. Mj appe
tite and spirits have astonishingly improved, and 1 beg u
to feel as though I had grown (suddenly) ten year*
younger, and really, I am almost prepared to say that I
now consider myself calculated for any business, while,
ten days ago, 1 would have as soon undertaken to square
a circle as to have attempted it. m .
Yours respectfully, A. A KAUFMAN
To Dr. C. M Jackson,
1--J0 Arch street, Philadelphia.
The Editor of "Scott's Weekly Paper," one of (he
largest literary and family newspapers published in Phil
adelphia, says:
"Dr. Hootland's German Bitters, manufactured by Dr.
Jackson, are now recommended by some of the most
prominent members of the faculty, as an article of mm U
efficacy in cases of female week ness As such is th
case, we would advise all mothers to obtain a bottle, and
thus save themselves much sn kness Persons of debili
tated constitutions will find these hitters advantageous
to their health, as wc know from experience Ihc salutary
effert they have upon weak systems."
That this medicine will cure I.iver Complaint and Dys
pepsia, no one can doubt al'ler using it as directed. It
acta specifically upon the stouiarh and liver ; it is prefer
able to calomel in ell bilious diseases— the effect is imme
diate. They can be administered to FEMALE or INFANT
with safety and reliable benefit, at any time.
Beware of Counterfeits!
This medicate has attained that high character w hirh
is necessary for all medicines to attain to induce cour
terfetters to put forth a spurious article, at the rtskof the
lives of those who are innocently deceived.
Look well to the Marks of the Genuine.
They have the written signature of C. M. JACKSON
upon the wrapper, and the name blown in the bottle,
without which they art spurious.
