GREAT IMPROVEMENT !
Simple and Economical!
MAW attempts have been made to produce
a Coffee l'ot capable of condensing ami
retaining the aroma and strength of the Cotiee
ordinarily wasted by evaporation, and vet be
simple enough to come within the limits "of or
dinary comprehension. Hitherto this desirable
end lias been very imperfectly attained, and bv
means difficult to explain and understand.
THE OLD EMPIRE COFFEE P,)T
lias none of those faults; on the contrary it is
so arranged as to condense perfectly, and theie
hy retain all the ricfi fragrance and strength of
toe Coffee, giving a most delicious beverage at
a quarter expense, and yet is so perfectly
simple that it is actually impossible to make
any mistake. A child can comprehend the
whole thing perfectly. All who have used this
Coffee Pot are delighted with its great simplicity
and excellence, for sale at the Tin and Stove
Store of J. li. SELIIEIVIEIi.

CELEBRATED
VERMIFUGE
LIVER PILLS.
beg leave to call the atten
tion of the Trade, and more
especially the Physicians of the
country, to two of the most popu
lar remedies now before the public.
We reft r to
lir. (has. N'Lane's frlcbrated
Vermifuge and Liver Pills.
We do not recommend them as
universal Cure-alls, but simply for
what their name purports, viz.:
THE VERMIFUGE,
For expelling Worms from the
human system. It has also been
administered with the most satis
factory results to various Animals
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS.
For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS,
all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTS, SICK
HEAD-ACHE, &C. In cases of
FEVER AND AGUE,
preparatory to or after taking Qui
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men
tioned diseases, they are Unrivaled,
and never known to fail when ad
ministered in accordance with the
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors,
FLKM ! NG BROTHERS,
PITTSBURGH, PA.
to dispose of their Drug business,
in which they have been success
fully engaged for the last Twenty
Years, and they will now give then
undivided time and attention to
their manufacture. And being de
termined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele
brated Vermifuge and l.iver Pills
shall continue to occupy the high
position they now hold among the
great remedies of the day, they
will continue to spare neither time
nor expense in procuring the Best
and Purest material, and com
pound them in the most thorough
manner. Address all orders to
