VNEW and singularly successful remedy ii i me . ~ie
of all Billions diseases—Costivcue—. Indige-tion
Jaundice. Dropsy, Rheumati-m, Fevers' Gout, Jlumors,
Nervousness, Irritability, Inflamations, Headache, Pains
in the Breast, Side, Back,and Limbs, Female Complaints,
Ac., Arc. Indeed very few are the diseases in which a
Purgative Medicine is not more or less required, and much
sickness and suffering might be prevented, if a harmless
but effectual Cathartic were more freely used. No per
son can feel well while a costive habit of body prevail- ;
besides it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases,
which might have been avoided by the timely and judi
cious me of a good purgativ. This is alike true of Colds,
Feverish symptoms, and Billions derangements. They
all tend to become or produce the deep .-ented and for
midable distempers which lor.d the hearses all o.er the
land. Hence a reliable family physic is of the first im
portance to the public health, and this Pill has been per
fected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An
extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Professors,
and Patients, has sbowu results surpassing anything
hrtherto known of any medicine. Cures have been ef
fected beyond belief, were they not substantiated by per
sons of such exalted positions and character as to lorbid
the suspicion of untruth.
Among the eminent gentlemen who have testified in
favor of these Pills, we may mention :
Poet. A. A. HAYES, Analytical Chemist of Boston,
and State Assaver of Massachusetts, whose high Profes
sional character is endorsed by the
Hon. EDWARD EVERETT, Senator of the United
States.
ROBERT C. WINTHROP, Ex-Speaker of the Honse of
Representative*.
ABBOTT LAWRENCE. Minister Plen. to England.
+JOHX B. FITZPATRICK, Catholic Bishop of Boston;
alio
Dr. J. R. CHILTON, Practical Chemist of New Y'ork
Citv, endorsed by
lion. W. L. MARCY, Secretary of State.
WM. B. ASTOR, the richest man in America.
S. EKLAND Ac Co., Proprietors of the Metropolitan
Hotel, and others.
Did space permit, we could give many hundred certi
ficate* trom all parts where the Pills have been used, but
evidence even more convincing than the experience of
eminent public men, is found in their effects upon trial.
The-e Pills, the result oflong investigation and study,
are offered to the public as the be-t and most complete
which the present state of medical science can afford.—
They are compounded not of the drugs themselves,but of
the medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies extract
l id by Chemical process in a state of purity, and combin
ed together in such a manner a* to insure the best results.
This system of composition for medicines has been found
i in Cherry Pectoral and Pill- both, to produce a more ef
i licient remedy than had hitherto leen obtained by any
; process. The reason is perfectly obvious. While by the
' old mode of composition, every medicine is burdened with
more or le-s of acrimonious and injurious qualities, by
this each individual virtue only that is de-ired for the cu
rative effect is pre-ent. All the inert and obnoxious
qualities of each substance employed arc left behind, the
curative virtues only 1-eing returned. Hence it is self
i evident the effects should prove as they have proved,
! more purely remedial, and the Pills a more powerful an
! tidnte to disease than any other medicine knoivu to the
world.
As it is frequently expedient that many medicines
should he taken under the counsel of an attending Physi
cian, ami as lie could not properly judge of a remedy
without knowing its composition, 1 have suppled the ac
curate Formula 1 by which both rov Pectoral and Pills aie
made, to the whole body of Practitioners in the United
State atiu British American Provinces. If however there
should he any one who has not received them, they will
he forwarded by mail to his request.
Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few
j would he taken it their composition was known ! Their
j life consists in their mystery. J have no mysteries,
t The composition of my preparations is laid open to all
i men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject
| freely acknowledge their convictions of their intrinsic
| merits. The Cherry Pectoral was pronounced hj scienti
fic men to be a wonderful medicine before it effects were
| known. Many eminent Physicians have declared the
1 same thing of my Pills, and even more confidently, and
! are willing to certify that their anticipations were more
thau realized by their effects upon trial.
They operate by their powerful influence on the inter
! ual viscera to purity the blood and stimulate it into heal
j thy action—remove the obstructions of the stonmch.bow
; els, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring tlreir
i irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever
j they exist, such derangements as arc the first origin of
; disease. .. .

GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN WATER PIPE
AND
CHAIN BUM P TUBING.
ffHE subscriber having lately commenced the manufac-
X ture of WATER TUBING, at Wilkes-Barre, Pa. with
WYCKOFF'S PATENT BORING MACHINE,
which produces the article so long sought after by Pir p
Manufacturers and others, would call the attention of Rail
road Superintendents. Pump Dealers, Fanners, Village
Corporations and all others in want of cheap and durable
Water Conductors, to the Pipes manufactured by this pro
cess. They are made from solid Pine and other scantling
from 3 to 6 inches square, according to size of bore and
pressure required, in sections 8 feet long, with a socket
joint accurately fitted, both air and water tight. As Wy
chofiTs Machine bores directly through the centre every
time, the timber need only be larpre enough to sustain the
pressure wanted, as tbe smaller they are the more perfect
ly they become saturated with water, and the longer they
will last when laid in the ground. It is a well-ascertain
ed fact that while the body or thick part of a pump log is
entirely decayed, the thin sharpema end will I>o sound ;
at the same tune they never stop up from impurities of
the water or being flattened, are free from rust or poison
ous oxydes, lasting about as long as lead or iron, at only
one-sixth the cost.
The above-mentioned Pipes have been extensively and
thoroughly te ted in most of the Northern States, for the
past two years, and wherever introduced they immediate
ly supersede all other kinds of Pipe or Chain Pump Tub
ing. They can be made to stand any desirable head of
water, and can be shipped to any part of the country with
safety and at small expense.
