THE GETTYSBURG BATTLE
FIELD MEMORIAL.
AN APPEAL
TO LOYAL PENNSYLVANIANS.
The “GITTYSBUBG BATTLE-FIELD ME.
MORIAL ASSOCIATION’ ’ was Instituted for the
puTpowof securing, forever, the principal paints
upon the great bat'-le-fleldof the war, in theexact
condition in which they were left in Jnly, 1863 f
when the rebel hordes of the invader Leb were
driven back from the free soil of Pennsylvania,
and when the gallant soldiers of General Meade
remained in possession of .the field which they had
won by their vaior. The Association have.already
secured the put chase of Cembieby Hill, Culp’s
Hill, Granite Spue and Round Top, with the
entrenchments thrown up just upon the eve of the
great conflict which was the turning point in the
career of the rebellion. The field, with its redoubts,
wonderful stone defences, its timber breast-w orks,
itsforest heights, with the trees tom by shells and
countless btnlets, and its long lines of earthwork
defences! have all been preserved intact, and to so
ccntirtie to preserve them, as to be a monument
forever of the greatest of American
is the object of the formation of the Association,
To enable a large number of persons to join in this
patriotic work, the projectors of the plan placed
the subscriptions at ten dollarseach. The payment
of thin sum MAKES EACH SUBSCRIBER A MEMBER
OP THE ASSOCIATION, AND PART OWNEE OP THE
GLOBtous Field op Gettysburg.
What Loyal and Patriotic Citizen of Pennsylva
nia would not gladly embrace the privilege'of re
cording his name upon this ro:l of honor, and of
linking himself directly with the field where the
lofty heroism of his countrymen vindicated the
integrity of the Union and the principles of Free
dom! And who wouldnotdeslretohanddownas
- a precious heir-loom to his children the evidence
othis part in the good work, bearing, as the certi
ficate will, a view of the field which will rank in
history with Thermopylae, Mabathon and Wa
terloo 1

CATARRH OF THE
BLADDER.
STRANGURY.
For these diseases it is truly asovereign remedy,
and too much cannot be said in its praise. A
single dose has been known, to remove the most ur
gent symptoms. . f;
Are yon. troubled with that distressing pain in
the small of the bach and through the hips} A
teaspoonful a day of the Constitution Water will
relieve you like magic.
PHYSICIANS
Have long, since given up the use of buchu, cubeba
and juniper in the treatment of the diseases, and
only use them for the want of a better remedy
CONSTITUTION WATER
has proved'itself equal to the task that has e
volved upon it.
DIUEBTICS
irritate and drench the' kidneys, and by constant
use soon lead to chronic degeneration and confirmed
disease.
We present the Constitution Water to the public
with the conviction that it has no equal in relieving
the class of diseases for which it has been found so
eminently successful for curing; and we trnst that
we -ball be rewarded for onr efforts in placing so
valuable a remedy in a form to meet the require
ments of patient and physician.
IN DYSMENORRHCEA, OR PAINFUL MEN ..
STBUATION; AND MENORRHAGIA,
Both diseases arising from a faulty secretion of
the menstrual fluid—in case of being too little, and
accompanied by severe pain, and the other a too
profuse secretion, -which will be speedily cured by
the Constitution Water.
The disease bn own as FALUNOI OF THE
WOMB, which is the result of a relaxation of the
ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense
of heayibess and dragging pains in .the' back and
sides, and at times accompanied by sharp, lanci
nating or shooting pains through the parts, will,
in ail cases, be cured by this medicine.
There is another class of symptoms arising from
IRRITATION OF THE WOMB, which physi
cians call nervousness, which word covers np
much ignorance, and in nine cases ont of ten the
doctor does r.otrealiy know whether the symptoms
are the disease or the disease the symptoms. We
can only enumerate them here. I speak more
garticnlarly of Cold Feet, Palpitation of the
[eart, Impaired Memory, Wakefulness, Flashes
of Heat, Languor, Lassitude and Dimness of
Vision.
SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION,
Which in the unmarried female is a constantly re
curring disease, and through neglect the seeds of
mere grave and dangerous maladies are the result;
and as month after month passes without an effort
being made to assist nature, the suppression be
comes chronic, the patient gradually loses her ap
petite, the bowels are constipated, night sweats
come on, and consumption finally ends her career

Danvixle, Pa, June 2; 1E62.
Dr Wm. H.. Gregg—Dear Sir: In February,
16S1, I was afflicted with sugar diabetes, and for
five months I passed more than two gallons of
water in twenty-iour hours. I was obliged to get
np as often as ten or twelve times during the night,'
andinflTe months I lost about fifty pounds in
weight. During the month of July, ISBI, I pro
cured two bottles of Constitution Water, and in
two days after using it I experienced relief, and.
after taking two bottles I was entirely cured; soon
after regaining my usual good health.
Yours truly, . J. V. L. DEWITT.
Boston Cobnebs, N. Y., Dec. 27,1561.
Wm. H. Gregg A Oo.—Gents—l freely give you
liberty to make use of the following Certificate of
the value of Constitution Water, which I can re
commend in the highest manner:
My wife was attacked, with pain in the
shoulders, whoie length of the back, and in her
limbs, with Palpitation of tho heart and Irritation
of the Bladder. I called a physician, who at
tended her three months, when ne. left her worse
than he had fonnd her. I then employed one of
the best physicians I could find, wno attended her
for about nine months, and while she was under
ids care she did not suffer quite as much pain.
He finally gave her up and said, her case toot in
curable. “For,” said be, “sAe Aar. suets
a combination of complaints, that medicine given for
one operates against seme other of her dijjicalties. ’ *
About this time she commenced the use of the
Constitution Watbb, and, to out utter astonish
ment, almost the first dose seemed to have the de
sired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly
under its treatment, and now superintends entirely
her domestic affairs. She has not taken any of the
Constitution Wateb for about four weeks, and
we are happy to say that rt has produced a perma
nent cure. WM.M. VAN BENSCHOTEN.
Wethbbsmeld, Conn., March2,lSB3.

advertisement of * ‘ Constitution Water,” recom
mended for inflammation of the Kidneys and Irri
tation of the Bladder, having suffered for the past
three years, and tried the skill of a number of phy
siciana with only temporary relief, I was induced
to try your medicine. I procured one bottle from
your agents at Hartford, Messrs. Lee, Sisson A
Co., and when I had used half of it, to my sur
prise I found a great change in my heaim* Ihava
used two bottles of it, e
rMted to be in my life* well, and m good spirits.
cannot express my gratitude for it; J. feel that it
is all and more than you recommend it to be. 3STay
the blessing of God ever attend you m your labors
Of love. Yours, ,r^|’ QNAR D s. BIGELOW.
