Patent Galvanic Cement
£2P CO CP 5~T> c tT> cm <T* fl. CP. £5? O
THE undersigned Laving purchased the
right for this Cement in Mifflin and on "
tre counties, are now prepared to furnish and
tout it on roofing wuerever desired the roof
heing 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 Irnperviousness 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 ropairs will cost more than
a now roof. The various cemeuts and com
positions which have been introduced, can be
supplied only to 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—lt 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 Roofs 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 aud solid in
the warmest and coldest weather.
eventh—lt is adapted to all kinds of rook,
either fiat or steep.
Eighth—lt is valuable for repairing old
roofs. Old shingle roofs may be covcret.
without Removing the shingles. Old metalie
roofs canoe made perfectly tight and secure.
Ninth—lt is especially adapted to all kinds j
of seaming around battlements, sky-lights
end chimneys, and for the lining of cave
troughs and gutters. Roofs which given !
trouble for years, and which have continued ;
to leak in apito of all efforts, can be made i
perfectly secure by this cement.
Tenth—lt has been proved to Le 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- j
nishint, a coat which is at once impervious to j
water and an almost perfect non-conductor of I
heat.
Twelfth—lt is th? only roofing material
patented which contains India rubber and |
gutta percha.

property will please address

Cholfigogue" for Fcvcr-and-Agur-
Who has not heard of the widely advertised
" Indian Cholagogue," of which some mil
; lions of bottles have been sold at the Y.'est
as a specific for fever and ague. (The tvord
'• cholagogue" literally signifies a remedy
for deraugernents in, or rather a surplus of
the bile.) Yv ell, here is a prescription for
making a cholagogue which hv-heen much
used by friends and acquaintances at the
West, for fever and ague and numerous
bilious complaints, with the happiest re
sults, they ali sny. We suspect that if not
the same as the so-called'• Indian Choia
gogue," it is quite as good and vastly cheap
er. To make it, take 24 grains of sulphate
of quinine, 1 tablespoonful of barberry
bark, 1 tablespoonful of Turkey rhubarb
powdered, 1 ounce of wintergreen, 1 pint
of molasses, and 1 pint of good brandy.
Put these all into a bottle, ami shake well,
lake a tablespoonful three times adav,say
one hour before each meal. This is a tonic
(or strengthening) medicine, and marie
very good. Indeed, we will about warrant
it to cure, provided the person will est
broiled beef-steak or roast beef in fair quan
tities-, and sparingly of vegetables, remem
bering to have all the food made very fine
before swallowing. Take notice that we
do not warrant the medicine without tie
dieting, while the dieting will go a great
way towards a cure without the medicine.
If you want any kind of cholagogue, how
ever, try that recommended above, and save
the dollars now paid out for the pa.ee: ar
ticle.

could under the old plan, with much greater ease, both to
himself and horses. There need be no fearof the dprl's
breaking, for if tisere is an article that will neither krwL
