Dr. Townsend’s compound Extract
/Sarsaparilla.
THIS Extract is put up in quart bottles—-it is six
times cheaper, pleasanter, and warranted supe
rior to any-sold. It cures diseases without vomiting,
purging,•'sickening or debilitating the patient, ant
is particularly adapted for a Spring and Summei
Medicine.
The great beauty and superiority of this Sarsapa
rilla over all other remedies is, while it eradicates
disease, it invigorates the body. Consumption cured.
It cleanses and strengthens. Consumption can be
cured. Bonchitis, consumption, liver complaint,
colds, coughs, catarrh, asthma, spitting of blood,
soreness in the chest, hectic flush, night sweats,
difficult or profuse expectoration and pain in the
aide, &c., have and can be cured.
Probably there never was a remedy that has been
so successful in desperate cases of consumption as
this; it cleanses and strengthens the system, and
appears to heal the ulcers on the lungs, and the pa
tients gradually regain their usual health & strength.
Curious case of Consumption.
Dr. Townsend—Dear Sir:—For the last three
years I have been afflicted with general debility and
nervous consumption of the last stage, and did no!
expect ever to gain my health at all. After going
through a course of medicine under the care of the
most distinguished regular physicians and members
of the Board of Health of New York and elsewhere
and spending the most of my earnings in attempting
to regain my health, and after reading in some pa
per of your Sarsaparilla, I resolved to try it. After
using six botlfes 1 found it done me great good, and
called to see you at vour office; with your advice
I kept on; arid I do most heartily thank you for
your advice. I persevered in taking the Sarsapa
rilla, and have been able to attend to my usual la
bors for the last four months, and I hope by the
blessings of God and your Sarsaparilla to continue
my health. It helped me beyond the expectations
of all that knew my case. Charles Quimby.

his oath saith, that the foregoing statement is true

Spitting Blood.
Read the following and say that consumption is
incurable if you can. New York, April 23, 1847.
Dr. Townsend : I verily believe that your Sarsa
parilla has been the means, through Providence, of
saving mv life. 1 have for several years had a bad
cough. It became worse and worse. At last 1
raised large quantities of blood, had night sweats,
and was greatly debilitated and reduced, and did
not expect to live. I have only used your Sarsapa
rilla but a short time, and there has a wonderful
change been wrought in me. lam now able to
walk all over the city. I raise no blood, and my
cough has left me. You can well imagine that J
am thankful for these results. Your obedient ser
vant, Wm. Russell, 69 Catharine street.
Lost her Speech. Brooklyn, Sept. 13, 1547.
Dr. Townsend —I take pleasure in saying for the
benefit of those whom it may concern, that my
daughter, two years arid six months old,was afflict
ed with general debility and loss of speech. She
was given up as past recovery by our family physi
cian ; but fortunately I was recommended to try
your Sarsaparilla. Before having used one bottle
she recovered her speech and was enabled to walk
alone, to the astonishment of all who were ac
quainted with the circumstance. She is now quite
well and in much better health than she has been
for IS months past.
Joseph Taylor, 127 York st., Brooklyn.
Two Children Saved.
Very few-' families indeed—in fact we have not
heard of one —that used Dr. Townsend’s Sarsapa
parilla in time lost an.y children the past summer,
while those that did not sickened and died. The
certificate we publish below is conclusive evidence
of its value, and is another instance of its saving
the lives of children :
Dr. Townsend —Dear Sir: I had two children
cured by your Sarsaparilla of summer complaint
and dysentery ; one was only 15 months old and the
other three years. They were much reduced, and
we expected they would die ; they were given up
by two respectable physicians. When the doctor
informed us that we must lose them, we resolved
to try your Sarsaparilla which we heard so much of|
but had little confidence, there being so much stuff
advertised that is worthless; but we are very
thankful that we did, for it undoubtedly saved the
lives of both. 1 write this that others may be indu
ced to use it. Yours, John Wilson, jr.
Myrtle-avenue, Brooklyn, September 15, 1847.
James Cummings. Esq., one of the Assistants in
the Lunatic Asylum, Blackwell’s Island, is the gen-j
tleman spoken of in the following lotter: 1
Blackwell's Island, Sept. 14, IS4$. 1
Dr. Townsend —Dear Sir : 1 have suffered terri
bly for nine years with the rheumatism ; considera
ble of the. time I could not eat, sleep, or work : I
had the most distressing partus, and my limbs were
terribly swollen. 1 have used four bottles of your
Sarsaparilla and they have done me more than one
thousand dollars worth of good—l am so much
better—indeed lam entirely relieved. You are at
liberty to use this for the beuefit of the afflicted.
Yours respcctfulty, James Cumjiings.
Could not Walk.
That Dr. Townsend’s Sarsaparilla is the very best
remedy for female complaints there is no disputing:
thousands and thousands of weak and debilitated
females that were prostrated by those diseases to
which females are subject were soon in the enjoy
ment of robust health. N. Y. Sep. 23, 1847.
Dr. Townsend —Dear Sir: My wife has for the
last year been very sick, and in a greatly reduced
state of health, being reduced by a variety of com
plaints such as females arc liable to ; she got so
bad at length that she was entirely unable to walk,
and was as helpless as a child; she commenced
using your Sarsaparilla, and she immediately began
to regain her strength, her complaints left her, and
after taking several bottles she is restored. Being a
singular' case I have thought it might do good to
publish it. She used a number of remedies that
done her no good previously. Yours respectfully,
John Mullen, S 7 Norfolk street..
To the Ladies —Great Female Medicine.
Dr. Townsend’s Sarsaparilla is a sovereign and
speedy cure for incipient consumption, and for the
general prostitution of the system —no matter whe
ther the result of inherent cause or causes, produ
ced by irregularity, illness or accident.
It will not be expected of us in-cases of so deli
cate a nature, to exhibit certificates of cures per
formed, but we can assure the afflicted that hun
dreds of cases have been reported to us.
Dr. Townsend : My wife being greatly distressed
by weakness and general dcbjlity, and suffering
continually by pain with other difficulties,and hav
ing known cases where your medicine has effected
great cures: and also hearing it recommended foi
such cases as 1 have described, I obtained a botth
of your Extract of Sarsaparilla and followed the
directions you gave me. In a short period it remo
ved her complaints, and restored her to health.—
Being grateful for the benefits she received, I takt
pleasure in thus acknowledging it and recommend
ing it to the public. M. D« Moore, corner of
Albany, Aug. 17, 1847. Grand and Lydius sts
To Mothers and Married Ladies.
This Extract of Sarsaparilla has been expressl)
prepared in reference to female complaints. No fe
male who has reason to believe Fthe is approaching
that critical period, “the turn of life,” should ne
glect to take it, as this is a certain preventive foi
iny of the numerous and horrible diseases to which
females are subject at this time of life. This period
may be delayed for several years by taking tliii
medicine. It braces the whole system, renew*
permanently the natural energies—by removing th<
.impurities of the body—but so far stimulating tilt
system as to produce a subsequent relaxation,
ivhich is the case of most medicines taken for fe
male weakness and disease.
Disease of the Heart, Rupture and Dropsy.
New York, July 22, 1846.
Dr. Townsend—Dear Sir: My wife has boon af
dieted with a disease of the heart, and with a terri
>lc rupture for over fifteen years, the greater par
)f the time. She has been troubled with shortness
if breath, and great fluttering of the heart, whicl!
nas been very distressing, and has frequently bcei :
jnable to leave her bed. The rupture was very
arge and severe. She tried almost every remedv
.or such cases with but little benefit. When sin:
lad taken but three bottles ol* your excellent medi
cine she was entirely relieved of the fickleness o’
;he heart, and the rupture has almost entirely dis
ippeared. She has also had the dropsy, and wa*

Sarsaparilla is certainly a valuable medicine, ant

Dr. Townsend—Sir: I have been afflicted fo;
several years with dyspepsia in its worst form, at
ended with sourness of stomach, loss of appetite,
extreme heartburn, and a great aversion to all
tinds of food, and for weeks (what I could cat) )
lave been unable to retain but a small portion or
ny stomach. I tried the usual remedies, but thex
lad but little or no effect in removing the complaint
I was induced, about two months since, to try you)
extract of Sarsaparilla, and I must say with little
confidence: but after using nearly two bottles, 1
bund my appetite restored and the heartburn en
irely removed; and I would earnestly recomment
.he use of it to those who have been afflicted as 1
lave been. Yours &c, W. W. Van Zandt.

ALTHOUGH the great fatality of Pulmonary)
Diseases, at this time shows that there are)
particular cases that render still too applicable the)
designation, approbia medicorum —the disgrace of*
physicians—to this call of diseases; and that there)
are stages in their progress, which havingonce been!
reached, recovery rs doubtful. Still no one should]
despair. The writings of physicians, who have]
given to these affections particular attention, abound]
with many recorded cases of recovery when the]
patient had reached a seeming hopeless stage of]
the disease; and there is at this time, a remedy]
prepared in Philadelphia which has met with the]
most triumphant and cheering success in the most]
obstinate forms of Throat and Pulmonary Diseases]
—so as to have obtained the sanction and employ-]
ment in the practice of many physicians. !
Allusion is had to Thompson’s Compound Syrup
if Tar and Wood Naptha—the preparation of one,
who, having given to diseases of the Lungs apd
.heir means of cure, the most careful and thorough
ittention, presented to the public this great remedy.
The soothing and curative power of TAR has
often been observed in severe coughs, and Con
sumption. But in the above preparation, beside
mme of our most valuable vegetable pectorals
:hcrc is conjoined with it the VVood Naptha, a mod
cine but lately introduced, but which has been
unployed with most satisfactory results in England,

THE only original and genuine article for the]
cure of Heaves, other complaints of the respi-]
mriry apparatus, and derangement of the digestive]
uoctions in the Horse, is Kirkbride's jgu |
rattersall's Heave Powders. It is
varranted to be perfectly safe in all Jgta
;ases, will not inconvenience the an- | )
mal or injure him even if he has
lisease; it is from four to eight times cheaper than
nost of the imitations which are being circulated
hroughoutthe country, being put up in much larger
»ackages, sufficient to cure an ordinary case of
leaves, and to administer in a dozen cases of cold,
catarrh, &c.
At this season, .while the Horse is shedding his
:oat, his vital energy is much reduced, and, he is
ixtremely liable to colds, See., many cases of inci
dent Heaves are contracted now, but are suppress
:d by pasture Or warm weather, till they break out
vith full force in the ' fall. Thousands of Horses
inn be saved from future unsoundness, if, when the
irst symptoms of cold’or wheezing is observed, a
ew doses of the Tattersall’s Heave Potvders should
>e administered. They are warranted to wholly
jradicate recent Heaves at this season.
The Heave Powders, given in small doses, will
found most useful at this season. They stirau
ate - the skin to cast off the superfluous hair and
•roducenew; they loosen the hide, give a glossy
ippearance to coat, protect against disease;
hey also, from their line alterative and restorative
lowers, purify the blood and renovate the system,
which horses require at this season as much as any
if the human race, who find a .preparation of sar*
laparilla useful to. correct the vitiated state of the
luids, incident to the change of weather, which
n the spring affects all animal as Well as vegetable
ifc. Persons who value theft horses will never be
without a supply. For sale only by

the Oil always pure and the lamp clean. Their

Clickener’s Vegetable Purgative
PUls,
ARE tile first and only medicine ever discovered
that will positively cure Headache, Giddiness,
Piles, Dyspepsia, Scurvy, Smallpox, Jaundice, Pains
in the Back, Inward Weakness, Palpitation of the
I Heart, Rising in the Throat, Dropsy, Asthma, Fe
vers of all kinds, Female Complaints,Measles, Salt
Rheum, Heart-Burn, Worms, Cholera Morbus,
Coughs, Quinsy, Whooping cough, Consumption,
Fits, Liver Complaint, Erysipelas, Deafness, Itchings
of the Skin, Colds, Nervous Complaints, and a va
riety of other Diseases arising from impurities ot
Indigestion.
It has been proved that nearly every disease to
which the human frame is subject, originates from
impurities of the Blood or Derangements of the
Digestive Organs; and to secure Health, we must
remove those obstructions or restore the Blood to
its natural stntc. This fact is universally known ;
but people have such an aversion to medicine, that,
unless tne case is urgent, they prefer the disease to
the cure, until an impaired Constitution or a fit ot
sickness rebukes them for the folly of their c'onduct.
Still they had Borne excuse, for heretofore, medicine in
almost all its forms, was nearly as disgusting as it
was beneficial. Now, however, the evil is most ef
fectually removed; for Clickner's Vegetable Purga
tive Pills, being completely enveloped with a coat
ino or, pure white sugar, (which is distinct from
the kernel) have no taste ofmcdicine x but are as easily
swallowed as bits of candy. Moreover they do not
nauseate or gripe in the slightest degree, which is
occasioned by the fact that they are compounded on
scientific principles and operate equally on all the
diseased parts of the system, instead of confining*
themselves to, and racking any particular region,
(which is the great and admitted evil of every other
known purgative.) Hence they Strike at the Root
of Disease, remove all impure humors from the
body, open the pores extornally and internally,
promote the Insensible Perspiration, obviate Flatu
lency, Headache, &c. —separate all foreign and ob
noxious particles from the chyle, so that the blood,
of which it is the origin, must be thoroughly pure—
secure a free and healthy action to the Heart, Lungs,
and Liver, and thereby restore Health even when all
means have failed. The entire truth of the
above can be ascertained by the trial of a single
box; and their virtues ar§ so positive and certain in
restoring Health, that the proprietor binds himself
to return the money paid forthemin all cases where
they do not give universal satisfaction.

Beware of Counterfeits and Imi
tations.
THE unparalleled and astonishing efficacy of pr.
Wistar’a Balsam' of Wild Cherry, in all the dis
eases for which it is recommended, curing many
cases after the skill of the best physicians was un
availing, has effected an increasing demand for it.
This fact has caused many unprincipled counter
feiters and imitators to palm off spurious mixtures,
of similar appearance, for the genuine Balsam.
Some called “ Syrup of Wild Cherry,” “Balsam of
Spikenard,” “Wild Cherry Comfrey,” &c. Anoth
er, “Wester’s Balsam of Wild Cherry,” mispelling
the name, and forging certificates to resemble those
of the true Balsam. “Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of
Wild Cherry,” is the only genuine. The rest
merely imitate the name of the original, while they
possess none of its virtues. Look well to the marks
of the genuine. £
The genuine Balsam is put up in bottles, with
the words “ Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry,
Phila.,” blown in the glass; each bottle bearing a
label on the front, with the signature of H. WIB
- M. D.
This will be enveloped hereafter with a nhw
