WEST'S
Patent Galvanic Cement
TIIE undersigned having purchased the
right for this Cement in Mifflin and Cen
tre counties, are now prepared to furnish and
put it on roofing wherever desired —the roof
being sheeted by the owner. Scientific men
under the direction of government, and ar
chitects and builders in various parts of the
country, for years have been studying and
experimenting to discover some composition
or article for roofing, which would resist the
changes of our climate, and would unite the
qualities of Imperviousness to Water, Incom
bustibility, Durability and Cheapness. No
article now in use possesses these qualities.
Shingles are not fire proof, and cannot be used
upon flat roofs. Slate can only be used upon
steep roofs. The contraction, expansion and
rusting of metallic roofs are so great in this
changeable climate that they soon become
worthless, or the repairs will cost more than
a now roof. The various cements and com
positions which have been introduced, can be
supplied only t very flat roofs, and they are
all so affected by the action of the weather
that they will melt and run in summer and
crack in winter, and in a short time become
crumbly and worthless. The inventor of the
Galvanic Cement has labored twenty years to
obviate these difficulties, and it is believed by
those who have had opportunities to test the
matter, that be has entirely succeeded. As
now applied,
First —It is completely impervious to water.
"Water may continually stand upon the roof
without affecting it in the least.
Second—lt is fire proof. It is so incombus
tible that it will afford ample and perfect pro
tection against fire, sparks and burning shin
gles from another building immediately ad
joining.
Third—lt is durable. It is not injured by
atmospheric changes, having been tested for
several years by the Patentee, at Syracuse,
New York.
Fourth—lt is cheap. Itoofs will be put on
for about half the cost of tin, and will last
much longer.
Fifth—Repairs are easily and cheaply made.
Sixth —lt is sufficiently elastic to entirely
resist the expansion and contraction by heat
and cold, and will remain perfect and solid in
the warmest and coldest weather.
Seventh—lt is adapted to all kinds of roofs,
either flat or steep.
Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old
roofs. Old shingle roofs may he covered
without removing the shingles. Old metalic
roofs can be made perfectly tight and secure.
Ninth—lt is especially adapted to all kinds
of seaming around battlements, sky-lights
and chimneys, and fur the lining of eave
troughs and gutters. Roofs which have given
trouble for years, and which have continued
to leak in spite of all efforts, can he made
perfectly secure by this cement.
Tenth—lt has been proved to be the best
article ever used for covering car tops and
steamboat decks.
Eleventh—This cement applied to new tin
roofs preserves them from rusting, by fur
nishing a coat which is at once impervious to
water and an almost perfect non-conductor of
heat.
Twelfth—lt is the only roofing material
patented which contains India rubber and
gutta percha.
For a specimen of this cement we invite
owners of property to call at our mills, where
a single coating, put on in December last, has
kept the buildings perfectly dry through the
winter. E. E. LOCKE & CO..

Have in many cases defied the skill, heretofore, of the
best medical practitioners in the world, and many cases
have been abandoned as incurable.
Dr. J. WILLIAMS, Chemist and Pharmaceutist, after
studying closely the practices of Drs. Abernelhy and J.
Johnston, England, and observing the nature of the dis
ease in all its Etages, during a sojourn in the southern
and western portions of the United States, where it pre
vails to a greater extent than elsewhere, procured from
South America certain roots and herbs from which lie
prepared an "Elixir," which, after eighteen years' use in
private practice, has proved itself more efficacious in the
cure of Dyspepsy than any medicine that has ever been
prepared in any age or clime for the same purpose.
Having submitted it, with an explanation of its compo
nents, to a number of physicians of Philadelphia, among
whom were the late Drs Joseph Hart.-horne and J. C.
Morton, it lias received their entire approval, and many
of the medical faculty are now not only prescribing it for
their patients but are using it themselves, personally and
in their families. As a tonic it is unequalled, and its
properties are of so invigorating a nature that it is given
with perfect safety and success to the most tender infants.
The Elixir is very gradual, but certain in its action upon
the organs of digestion, the increased secretions of the
liver, pancreas and mucous membranes of the stomach,
and requires that only one dose be taken in twenty-four
hours; for confirmed Dyspepsy can only he cured by ffrad
will y restoring the organs of digestion to a healthy state.
The great success met With In curing the moslaggravated
cases of Dyspepsy, accompanied sometimes Willi a high
grade of hypochondriasis, has established the most un
bounded confidence in the curative properties of litis
Elixir, in corroboration of which read the following testi
monials :
ATTESTATION —We, having used Willi mis' Auti Dys
peptic Elixir with the most perfect satisfaction and suc
cess, take great pleasure in recommending it to ail per
sons suffering with Dyspepsy', as we are folly convinced
of its most estimable qualities in restoring the digestive
powers, removing all pains and uneasiness, and impart
ing a healthy tone to the stomach.

Dr. J. Williams— Dear Sir—For fifteen years previous
to IS3I, I auflured so much from dyspepsy that I became
completely prostrated both in mind and body, and at
length became so weakened I could not attend to my busi
ness, and was sinking into a decline, and it was believed
1 never could recover. The best medical aid was procured
for me, and every means resort- d to without any relief,
till 1 was advised to use your Elixir, and from the lime I
began taking it i gradually improved till I was completely
restored to health. The dreadful sufferings I endured
front dyspepsy I cannot describe ; but 1 am confident that
w illiout the use of your Elixir I should be in my grave.
I assert that I solemnly believe your Elixir has saved me
