{ I)r Hardman treats Consumption. Bronchitis, Larynp-

TRI) INHALATION.
Th * great point in the treatment of all human maladies
is lo get at the disease in a direct manner. All medicines
are estimated by their action upon the organ requiring
j relief. This is lite important fact upon which Inhalation
jis based If the stomach is diseased, we take medicine
directly into the stomach. If the lungs nre diseased,
hreatlte or inhale medicated vapors directly into them.—
i The reason why Consumption and diseases of lite Lungs
have heretofore resisted all treatment, has been because ;
if ev were not approached in a direct manner by medicine.
j They were intended to lie local, and yet they were so mi
ministered that iltey could only act constittitionally, ex
pending !h* ir immediate action upon the stomach, whilst ;
the foul ulcers within the Lungs were unmolested, lit
halation brings the medicine into direct contact with the
disease, without tile disadvantage of any violent action.
Its application is so simple thai it may lie employed by
llie youngest infitnl or feeblest invalid It does not de
range lite stomach, or interfere in the least with the
strength, comfort or business of lite patient.

FULL QUART BOTTLES,
And containing the. strength of six times as
much pure Honduras Sar>aparilla as any-
Other similar preparation in America,
i FEW bottles of this Sarsaparilla, put up
several years ago, rendering it the more
valuable, (as all well-informed druggists know
that age improves it,) have been deposited at
the drug store of CHARLES RITZ, in Lewistown,
where they are offered for sale at three-fourths
the regular price, namely 75 cents per bottle.
It has been a well established fact for years
past that Sarsaparilla, when pure and propcrlv
prepared, was the only true panacea for all di
seases originating from an impure state of the
blood, the use of mercury, intoxicating drinks,
evil habits in youth, barrenness,&c. We bold
ly assert that JO/LV HULL'S FLUID EX
TRACT OF SARSATARILIA is the only pre
paration before the public, that is prepared on
strictly scientific principles and of uniform
strength. The sarsaparilla is purchased with
out regard to price, and every pound, before
being used, is subject to the strictest chemical
tests, and its genuineness ascertained before
being used. Bull's Sarsaparilla also contains
the virtues of several other valuable medical
roots, together forming the best compound, and
produping the greatest curative agent in the
known world! This medicine, when used ac
cording to directions, has cured
Scrofula or King's Evil, Cancers, Tumors, Erup
tions of the Skin,_ Erysipelas, Chronic Sore
Eyes, Ringworm or Tetters, Scald Head,
Rheumatism, Old Sores and Ulcers,
Pains in the bones or Joints, Swelling ol" the
Glands, Syphilis, Dyspepsia, Salt Rheum, Di
seases of the Kidneys, Loss of Appetite, Pain
in the Side and Shoulders, General Debility,
Dropsy, Lumbago, Jaundice, Gostiveness, Sore
Throat, Rronchitis, Coughs, Colds, Weakness
of the Chest, Pulmonary Affections, and all
other diseases tending to produce
CONSUMPTION,
Liver Complaint, Female Irregularities and
Complaints, Sick at.d Nervous Headache, Low
Spirits, Night Sweats, Exposure or Imprudence
in Life, Chronic Constitutional Diseases, and is
a spring and summer drink and general tonic
for the system, and a gentle and pleasant pur
gative, far superior to Blue Lick or Congress
Water, salts, or seidlitz powders.

THE GREATEST
MEDICAL DISCOVERY
OF THE AGE.
DR. KENNEDY, of Roxbury, has discovered
in one of our common pasture irrtdsa
remedy that cures
Every Kind of Humor
from tire V. orstHcrofula down to a common Pimple.
UE has tried itin over 11 00 cases, and never failed ex
cept in two coses, (!>oth l tin title r humor.) Me has
now in his possession oyer two hundred certificates of
its virtue,nil within twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a nursing 'Sore
Mouth.
One to iliree bottles wilt core the worst kind ot Pimples
on the Face
Two to three I routes will clean lite 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 an; warranted to cure all Humor 111
the eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure Running of the
Ears and Botches among lire Itair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and
running lilcers.
One bottle will cure Scaly Eruption of the Skin.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the worst
case of Ringworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted lo cure the most
desperate case of Rheumatism.
Three lo four bottles are warranted to cury- the Salt.
Rheum.
Fiveto eight hollies worst case of Scrof
ula
A benefit is always experienced from t tie first bottle,
and a perfect cure is warranted when the above 'luauli
ty is taken.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand Ironiesnf this in the
vicinity of Boston. ! know the effort of it in every case.
Ho sure as water will extinguish fire, so sure will this
cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold an
oilier; after a trial it always speaks for itself. There
are two things about this herb that appears to me sur
prising; first tlsat il grows in our pastures, in some pla
ces quite plentiful, and yet its value has never been
known until I discovered it in 18 B>—second, Ilia I it should
cure all kinds of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and great
popularity of the discovery, 1 will stale that in April,
1853. 1 peddled it and sold about six bottles per day—in
April, 1851. I -sold over one lliousand bottles per day of it.
Home of the wholesale Druggists who have been ill
business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing in the
annals of patent medicines was ever tike it. There is a
universal praise of it from all quarters
In my 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 il that I
never suspected.
.Several cases of epileptic tils—a disease which was
always considered incurable, have been cured by a tew
bottles. O, what a mercy if il will prove effectual in all
cases of that awful malady—there areifew who havo
seen more of it than I ha ye.
1 know of several eases of Dropsy, all of them aged
people, cured by it. For the various diseases of the Liv
er, Hit k Headac he. Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague,
Pain in the Hide. Diseases of the Hpine, and particularly
in diseases of lhe Kidneys, Air.., the discovery has done
more good Iha ii ait y medicine ever know n.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best jon
get ami plenty of it
DiuEctions fob Fhf. —Adults one table spoonful per
day—Children ,-ver 10 years, ilesserl spoonful—Children
from 5 toB years, lea-spouidtll. As no directions <an be
applicable lo all constitutions, lake sufficient to operate
on the bowels twice a day.
