Its means effectually cured. Every housewife knows
that salt passes freely through bone or meat of any thick

through any bone or fleshy part of the living body,curing
the most dangerous inward complaints, that cannot be
reached by other means.

Heads, J-crofulu or Erysipelas, can long withstand it* in
fluence. The inventor has traveled over many parts of
the globe, visiting the principal hospitals, dispensing this

THE GREATEST
MEDICAL DISCOVEUY
OF THE AGE.
DR. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, has discovered
in one of our common pasture tceedsa
remedy that cures
Every Kind of Humor
from the worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple.
HE has tried it in over 1100 cases, and never failed ex
cept ill two cases, (both thunder humor.) He has
now in his possession over two hundred certificates of
its virtue,all within twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing Sore
Mouth.
One to three bottles will cure the worst Kind ot Pimples
on the Face
Two to three bottles will clean the system of Biles.
Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst Canker
in the Mouth and Stomach.
Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of Erysipelas.
One to two bottles are warranted toeure all Humor in
the eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of the
Ears and Blotches among the Hair.
Four to six bottle* are warranted to cure corrupt and
running Ulcers.
One bottle will cure Scaly Eruption of the Shin.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of Ringworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most
desperate case of Rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the Salt
Rheum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of Scrof
ula.
A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle
and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quanti
ty is liken.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the
vicinity of Boston. 1 know the effect of it iri every case.
So sure as water will extinguish fire, sosure will this
cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold an
other; after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
are two things about this herb that appears to me sur
prising; first that it grows in our pastures, in some pla
ces quite plentiful, and yet its value has never been
known until 1 discovered it in 1816—second, that it should
cure all kinds of huuior.
In order to give souie idea of the sudden rise and great
j popularity of the discovery, I will slate that in April,
1553. I peddled it and sold about six bottles per day—in
April, 1554, i sold over one thousand bottles per day of it.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been in
business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing in the
annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a
! uuiversal praise of it from all quarters.
in uiy own practice I always kept it strictly for humors
—but since its introduction asa general family medicine,
great and wonderful virtues have been found in it that I
never suspected.
i Several cases of epileptic tits—a disease which was
always considered incurable, have been cured by a few
bottles. O, what a mercy if it wilt prove etfectual in all
cases of that awful malady—there are few who have
seen more of it than i have,
j 1 kuow of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged
' people, cured by it. For the various diseases of the Liv
j er, Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague,
| Fain in the Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly
) in diseases of the Kidneys, Sec, the discovery has done
more good than any medicine ever known.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best you
get and plenty of it.
Directions for Use. —Adults one table spoonful per
day—Children over 10 years, dessert spoonful—Children
from sto 8 years, tea-spoonful. As no directions can be
applicable to all constitutions, take sufficient to operate
on the bowels twice a day.

Allegheny, July 19,1850
Mr. 11. M. Bowman—Dear Sir:—l feel it my duly to let
you know what your compound lias done for my daugh
ter, and wislt you to publish it if you can in hope that
some suffering one may be induced by it to try your val
uable medicine and be cured. My daughter was irarried
in 1853, and went to Cincinnati to live, wiiere Iter hus
band (James Hoyt,) was engaged in business, in six
months alter her husband died, and I sent for her to come
home, where in four months she was confined and caught
cold which settled on herlungs. It seemed as though we
could get nothing to help her We tried six different
physicians for over one year and then sent to New Turk
to a celebrated physicim there, and she took medicine
from him for eight months ; but lie could not cure her.-
Iler cough w as fixed and stubborn and seemed as though
it would tear her breast during the paroxysm of cough,
and her breathing as at times very difficult. Failing to
get relief front physicians, we thought we would try Ay
er's Cherry Pectoral, and she took it regular for seven
weeks, but it did her no pcruiatientgiiod. We then tried
Sellers' Imperial Cough Syrup, but with all she still be
came worse, and it seemed as though she was beyond
cure, when one day my wife was in at one of our neigh
bor's houses (Mr. Mayness') and she saw them give your
\ egetable Compound to one of their children for a cough
and she got three or four doses to bring home and try it.
After my daughter had taken it she breathed a little eas
ier, and We sent and got a bottle of it, and when it was
taken there was a marked change for the better. 1 then
got six bottles, the most of which she took as directed
until finally cured—it is three uiouths since, and she has
not had a symptom of the old complaint, ami is getting as
lusty as she ever was. We all unite in our prayers to
God that you may be prospered and that your Vegetable
Compound may be the means of restoring health to many,
as it lias to one who is dear to us ; we cheerfully recom
mend it to the public as the best medicine for Lung Dis
eases that we ever got hold of. Try it suffering one ami

CHERRY PECTORAL,
For the rapi<i Cure of
COI'GIIS, COLDS, HOARSENESS,
BRONCHITIS, WHOOPING-COUGH,
CROUP, ASTHMA, AND
CONSUMPTION.
TO CURE A COI.D, with Headache and Soreness of the
Body. Take the Cherry Pectoral on goirig to bed and
wrap up warm, to sweat during the night.
FOR A COLD AND COUGH, take it morning, noon
and evening, according to directions on the bottle, and
the difficulty will soon be removed. None will long suf
fer from litis trouble when they find it can be so readily
cured. Persons afflicted with a seated cough, which
breaks them of their rest at night, will find by taking the
Cherry Pectoral that on going to bed, they may be sure of
sound, unbroken sleep, and consequent refreshing rest.
Great relief from suffering, and an ultimate cure, is af
forded to thousands who are thus afflicted, by this invalu
able remedy. From its agreeable eirects in these cases,
many find themselves unwilling to forego its use when
the necessity for it has ceased.
TO SINGER.-! AND PUBLIC SPEAKERS this remedy
is invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lungs,
when taken !" small quantities, it removes all hoarseness
in a few hours, ami wonderfully increases ilie power and
flexibility of the voice.
ASTHMA is generally much relieved, and often wholly
cured by Cherry Pectoral. Rut there are some cases so
obstinate as to yieid entirely to no Pieuir'ne. Cuerrj
Pectoral will cure them if they can be cureu.
BRONCHITIS, or irritation of the throat ami Upper
portion of the lungs, may be cured by taking Cherry Pec
toral in small and frequent doses The uncomfortable
oppression is soon relieved.
FOR CROUP. Give an emetic of antimony, to be fol
lowed by large and frequent uoses oi the Cherry Pectoral
until it subdues the disease. If taken in season, it will
not fail to cure.
WHOOPING COUGH may be broken up and soon cur
ed by the use of Cherry Pectoral.
THE INFLUENZA is speedily removed by this remedy.
Numerous instances have been noticed where whole fam
ilies were protected from any er ious consequences, while
their neighbors witnotil the Cherry Pectoral, weresutfi r
ing from the disease.
FOR CONSUMPTION Ln its earliest stages, it should
be taken under the advice of a good physician if possible,
and in every case with a careful regard to the printed ill
rections on the buttle. If judiciously used, and the pa
tient is carefully nursed meantime, it will seldom fail to
subdue the disease.
For settled Consumption of the I.ungs, the Cherry Pec
toral should be given in doses adapted to what the patient
requires and cau bear. It always alt rds relief, and not
unfrequently cures patients thai weie considered pasi
hope. There are many thousands scattered all over the
country, w ho feel and publicly proclaim that they owe
their lives and present health to the Cherry Pectoral.
Many years of trial, instead of impairing the public
confidence iri this medicine, has won for it on appreciation
and notoriety by far exceeding the most sanguine expec
tation of its friends. Nothing nut its intrinsic virtues and
the untnistakeable benefit conferred on thousands of suf
ferers, could originate ami maintain the reputation it en
joys. While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this has gam
ed friends by every trial, conferred benefits 011 the afflicted
they can never forget, and produced cures too numerous
and too remarkable to be forgotten.
While it is a fraud on the public to pretend that anyone
medicine will infallibly cure —slid there is abundant proof
that the Cherry i'ectoral does not only asa general thing,
but almost invariably cure the maladies fur which it is
employed. As time makes these facts wider and better
known, this medicine has gradually become the best reli
ance of the afflicted, from the log-cabin of tile American
Peasant, to the palaces of European Kings.
The CHERRY PBCCOR.IL is manufactured by a practical
Chemist, and every ounce of it under his own eye, with
invariable accuracy and care. It is sealed and protected
by law from counterfeits, consequently can be relied on
as genuine without adulteration.

This institution holds out peculiar inducements to young men seeking an education. The
board of instructors is composed of gentlemen of high literary attainment* and skilled in their
profession. The location is very healthy, having the pure mountain air, and free from all nox
ious vapors arising from stagnant waters and marshy ground. Those subject to ague couid not
find a more desirable place. T
The course of instruction is such as is best calculated to prepare young men for business, for
teaching, or taking a high stand in college. For those desiring to become teachers, a Normal
class will be formed, in which practical instruction will be given in the art of teaching. To this
class lectures will be given.
The temptations to vice, idleness and dissipation are few. There is nothing to draw the mind
of the .student from his studies. It is quiet and retired—just such a situation as a young man
desirous of improvement would seek. The societies are in a flourishing condition, and each has
a fine library of choice books. The buildings are large and commodious. An additional build
ing is How in the course of construction, which will he finished this fall.
