As a l)ysp<'i>ia C arer,
Dr. HOUGHTON'S I'KPSIN has produced the most
marvellous efferis, in ciinug cases of lJebility, Ema
ciation, Xertous Decline, and Dyspeptic Consumption
It is impossible to give the details of the cases in the
limits of this advertisement; but authenticated certifi
cates have been given of more than TWO HUNDRED
REMARKABLE CURES, in Philadelphia, New Y'ork
and Boston, alone. These were nearly all desperate
cases, and the cures were not only rapid and wonderful,
but permanent.
i It 13 a great NERVOUS ANTIDOTE, and particularly
useful fur tendency to BiHious disorder, Liver Complaint,
Fever and Ague, and the evil effects of Quinine, Mercury,
and other Drugs upon the Digestive Organs, after a long
sickness. Also, for excess in eating, and the 100 free
use of ardent spirits. It almost reconciles Health with
Intemperance.
Dr. HOUGHTON'S PEPSIN ;s sold by nearly all
the dealers u. fine Drugs and Popular Medicines, through
out the United States. It is prepared in Powder and in
Fluid form—and in prescription vials for the use of
phvsiciaos.
PRIVATE CIRCULARS for the use of physicians,
may be obtained of Dr. Houghton or his Agents, de

THIS flourishing institution is located in Tuscarora
Vallev, Juniata county, Pa., eight miles S W. of Mif
fl mown, and aix miles from the Perry vi.'lesiu >n, on
the Pennsylvania Railroad It baa been ID successful
operation for more than fourteen year*, and is believed
to be equal to any Academy in the Stale, lc affording
facilities to young men for acquiring a thorough Aca
demical education, either for business or for college
There were present, during the last session, (previous
j to the lire,} more than one hundred students. Since
then, the buildings have teen entirely remodeled and
greatly enlarged, so as to afford private rooms to all the
students; an advantage not ordinarily found even in
the best Institutions in the country. Being ialfee coun
try, the students are removed from those temptations to
idleness, dissipation, and vice, which are the bane of
similar institutions in towns

My Tr:rtablf Anli-Pysfcp>ia Bi!tcrs.
This M-d:cine is a certain cure for Dvsp -ps-s in is
very worst forms Thousands of cases have been toni
pietely cured by it within the last % ar. which have
been entirely- despaired of by the regular family physi
cians. We d > not recommend it to cure every thing—we
recommend it to cure Dyspepsia, and the d sca- miti
nating from it, and that it will cure inaliuos' every rase,
, and it is recommended for nothing else. In many it
erances, even Ihe worst of cases i,.,ve been cmpltiel>
cured in two and Three Dior.the, but it dei-emi- somen hat
npon the conelitution of the patient We would say t-t
all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia, cue tin- tuttlk-ltvr
a fair trial, and 11 it fails to do good, your money u ill t-e
returned.
ALSO,
My Vegetable Worm Powders.
This if the most wonderful Worm Destroyer ever
. known, and at the same time, so pleasant to take, thai
almost every child w it; b* fund of it. and many instant.
have been known of children crying for mole after otne
taking it
This medicine is in the form of a powder, ihe only
medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a
principle entirely- different from any other medicine ever
administered by any other physician. H is thr only
medicine which ha- no Worm-seed Oil or Turpentine
combined with it, which is believed by all other physi
cians, to be the only two things which will destroy
worms, and these two things combined, together with
castor oil. are the active principles of ail other worm
medicines, which every person who has ever lasted or
! smelted, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous
medicines, and on account of which, there is generally
something added to destroy this nauseous taste, and in
order to do this, it mjist be something stronger than the
medicine itself, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy
| same 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 principle upon which it acts being different from any
thing else ever used, it will deskrnv all kinds of Worms
j with a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy
the seal worms, or Ascarides, and long, round worms.or
Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destruc
tion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one persor
If your children have any symptoms of worms, try
these powders, and in nine cases oat of ten,you will nev
er use any other These are also warranted.
J These medicines are all separate, and one for each dis
ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re
commended, as many other medicines are, to cure some
fifteen er twenty diseases, and all of different natures,
but they are each to cure but ore disease, and tfat they
will do in ninety -nine cases out of every hundred, and
where they have a fair trial and fail in all cases, the
money will be returned.
