CAN HE EFFECTUALLY CUBED BY
DR. HOOFLAND'S
CELEBRATED BITTERS,
rnErAhED BY
dr. c. M. JACKSON,
At THE ,
GERMAN MEDICINE STORE,
No. 120 Arch Street, Philadelphia.
Their power over tlie above diseases is
not excelled, il equalled, by any other rup
aration in the Fuited States, as the cures
attest, in many cases after skilful physicians
had failed. r
These Bitters are woilliy the attention ol
invalids. Possessing great virtues in the ;
rectification of diseases of the Liver afnl Ms- |
ser glands, exercising the most searching
powers in weakness and atlectione of the di- 1
gestive organs, they are, withal, safe, cer- |
tain and pleasant.
Read atid be Convinced.
The Hon. Charles D. Hineline, Editor if
the "Cantden Democrat,' the best paper n
JVest Jersey, says, July 21: —
"Hooft.ami's German Bitt rs.' \Vc
have seen many flattering notices of this '
mcdioinc, and the source from which they i
came, fh'udbd us to m'ake Inquiry respect-]
iag its merits. Frorr. inquiry we were pei
suaded to use it, and must Say we found
it specific in Us aclion upon diseases of the
liver and digestive organs, and the powerful
influence it exerts upon nervous prostration
is really surprising. It calms and stregthens
tiro nerves, bringing them into a state of re
pose, making sleep retreshing.
"If this medicine were more generally
csed, we are satisfied there would he less
sickness, as from the stomach, liver and ner
vous system the great majority of real and
imaginary diseases emanate. Have them in
a healthy condition, and von can bid defi
ance to epidemics generally. This extraor
dinary medicine we would advise our friends
who are at all indisposed to give a trial—it
will then recommend itself. It should, in
fret be in [every family. No other medi
cine can produce such evidences of merit."
[From the "Boston Bee."]
The editor said, Dec. 22d—
"Dr. Ho/Viand's Celebrated German Bitters
for the cure of Liver Complaint, Jaundice,
Dyspeysia, Chronic or Nervous Debility, is
deservedlv one of tho most popular medi
cines of tlie day. These Bitters have been
used by thousands, and a friend at our elbow
says be has himself received an effectual
and permanent cure of Liver Complaint
from the use of this remedy. Wo arc con
vinced that, in the use of these Bitters, the
patient constantly gains strength and vigor—
a fact worthy of great consideration. They
are pleasant in taste and smell, and can be
used by persons with tho most delicate stoin
achs with safety, nnder any circumstances.
We are speaking from experience and to the
afflicted we advise their use."
Judge M.M. Noah, a gentleman with
great scientific and and litterary attainments,
said in his "New York Weekly Messenger,''
January 6, 1850.
"Dr. Iloajland s German Bitters. —Here is
a preparation wh'ch the leading presses in
the Union appear to lie unani nous iu re
commending, and the reason is obvious. It
is made after a prescription furnished by
one ot the most celebrated physicians of
modern limes, the lato Dr. Christopher Wil
helm Hooiland, Professor to the University
of Jena, Private Physician to the King of
Prussia, and ono of tho greatest medical wri
ters Germany has ever produced. He was
emphatically the enemy of humbug, anil
therefore a medicine of whieh lie was the
inventor and endorser may be confidently re
lied on. Ho specially recomtnetiJad it in
Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Ver
tigo, Acidity of tho Stomach, Constipation,
and all complaints arising from a disordered
condition of the stomach, the liver and the
intestines. Nino Philadelphia papers express
their conviction of its excellence, and sev
eral ol the editors speak of its effijgts from
their own individual experionee. Under
these circumstances, we feel warranted, not
only in exiling the aitention of our readers
to the present proprietor's (Dr. C. M. Jack
son's) preparation, but in recommending the
article to all afflicted."
MORE EVIDENCE.
The "Philadelphia Saturday Gazette," the
best family nowspapei published in the Uni
ted States, the editor says of
DR. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
<! lt is seldom that wo recommend what
are termed Patent Medicines to the confi
dence and patronage of our readers: and,
therefore, when wo recommend Dr. lloof
land's German Bitters, we wish it to be dis
tinctly understood teal we are not speaking
of the nostrums of the day, that are noised
about for a brief period and then forgotten
after they liavo done their guilty race of mis
chif, but of a medicine long established,
universally prized, and which has met tho
hearty approval ot the Faculty itself."
Evidence upon ovidence has been re
ceived (like the foregoing) from all sections
ot the Union, the last threo years, and the
strongest testimony in its favor, is, that thero is
more of it used in the practice of the regu
lor Physicians of Philadelphia than all other
nostrums combined, a fact that can easily
lie established, and fully proving that a sci
entific preparation will meet with thoir qui
et approval when presented even in this
form.
That this medicine will cure Liver Com
plaint and Dyspepsia, ho one oau doubt, af
ter using it as directed. It acts specifically
upon the stomach and liver—lt is preferable
"to calr.yiel in all bilious diseases —tho effect is
immediate- They can be administered to
I'EMII.E or INFANT with safety and reliable
benefit, at any tinio.
BFAVAUE OK COUNTERFEITS.
This medicine has attained that high char
acter which is necessary for all medicines to
attain to induce counterfeiters to put forth a j
spurious article at the risk of the lives of |
those who are iunucoutly deceived.

Jl WONDERFUL CURE.
Hunterdon County, N. J,
Dr. 8. A. Pearson, Dear Sir—About a year a- '
go I became severely afflicted with a pain in my j
hrcat and side, on extremely bad cough, spitlingof
blood, debility, night Sweats, and other symptoms
of confirmed consumption, I became so much re
duced that I was unable to attend to my ordinary
business. I made application to a physician, who
examined my chest, and gave it as his decided o
pinion that iny lungs were seriously atfccted. I
then app.ied to another, who was of the same o
pinion, and after having presciibed advised me to
return to my friends.
Previous to this I had for a long lime been la
boring under all the symptoms usually found with
persons laboring under diseuse of iho lurgs, and
it was thought by ail who knew me that 1 was fast
wearing away with decay.
At the time I applied to the physicians I was
laboring under a severe attack of spitting blood,
with pain in my breaat and side. Their prescrip
tions failed to relieve the pain, ond all theii skill
could not arrest tho discharge of blood from my
lungs. This being my condition,! was induced
to make a trial of your valuable Pulmonic Expec
torant, oy the use or which I was immediately re
licvcd of all those unpleasant symptoms, and oin
now so far restored to health, that i am able to
attend to all my ordinary business, and expose
myself as much as it is pruJent for any one to do,
I would therefore confidently tccommend every
person who is laboring under diseaso of tho lungs
and breast, or who arc afflicted with colds or with
coughs, to make trial of your most valuable prep
aration* I would further add that after having
made use of your Expectorant for a few weeks, i
becamd so flesy that persons with whom 1 was
acquainted hardly know me. i still remain in good
health at this time, March, 1840.
Yours trqly,

manent cure is effected.
We have known cases of pain in tho hreaM

READ THE AFFIDAVIT.
Ci/y t rnrf Covnly of New-York, it.
William Armstrong, of the said City, being duly
•worn, doth denote and say that he is a practical
Druggist and Chemist. That some time in the latter
part of May, or first ot June, 1848, a man by the name
of Jacob Townsend, who at that time was a book and
pamphlet pcdJler, culled upon deponent, at the house
ol .Mr. Thompson, No. 44 Hudson-street, where depo
nent boarded and requested deponent to write him a
recipe by which to make a Hyrup of Saraaparilla.
Deponent further says, that ho became acquainted
with ititl Towni*iiil Uia olHca of Theodore Foster,
Esq.. Book Publisher, with whom said Townsend
dealt. That said Townsend had had frequent conversa
tions with dejioncnt respecting the manufacture of an
article of Saisaparilla to be sold under the name of Dr.
Jacob Townsend,
That said Townsend slated he was an old man, and
poor, and was not fit for hsrd labor—and wished to
make some money, in order to live easy in his old
Jays, and that, if Sarsanaiilla under the name of Town
send sold so well, and so much money was made by
it, he could see hu reason why he might not make
something out of it too. (his name being Townsend,)
if he could get a capable person to prepare a recipe,
and manufacture it for him. Deponent in one of tne
conversations asked said Townsend if he was rotated
to Dr. 8. P. Townsend, to which he replied, that he
knew Dr. 8. P. Townsend would be down on him after
he should commence. But that he did not care for
him, as he had formed a co-partnership with men who
could furnish the requisite amount of capital—and was
well prepared to defend himself against any attack
hat might I>e made on him.
Deponent further says, that pursuant to the request
of said Jacob Townsend, he wrote a recipe for the
manufacture of a Syrup of Sarsaparilla, ana gave it to
aim. Said Townsend observed that he wanted to
nake a specimen to exhibit to his partners for their
approval, as he wishod to gratify them in every thing,
is they furnished all the capital—said Townsend also
old deponent that the bottles they were to use were
to be ol the same size and shape as Dr. 8. P. Town
iend's, and deponent, at tho request of said Jacob
Townsend, went to the office of Dr. 8. P. Townsend,
and procured one of bis labels.
And deponent further says,thnt ho has been inform
ed, and verily believes tho Syrup of Sarsaparills, sold
as tun Jacob Townsend's*, is made after the recipe fur
nished uy deponent, to Jacob Townsend, as aforesaid.
And further deponent saith not.

PROOF!! PROOF!!!
Here i* proof conclusive that Dr. 8. P. Townsend'i
Sarsapanlltt is the original. Tho following is lYoin
some of the most respectable papers in this btate.
FROM THF.
Albany Evening Journal.
Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla.
There probably never has been so popular a remedy,
or patent medicine, as Dr. Town-ends's Sarsaparilla,
which was originally, and continues to be manufac*
tared in this city, at first by tho Doctor himself, and
afterwards for several years and to the present time,
by Clapp 8c Townsend, the present proprietors. Since
the partnership was formed, the Doctor has resided in
New York, where he keeps a store, and attends to the
business that accumulates at that point. The manu*
factory is in this city, and is conducted by the junior
partner, Mr. Clapp— here all tho medicine is manure*
tured
Few of our citizens have any idea of tho amount of
this medicine that is manufactured and sold. Besides
the sales in this couutry, it is shipped to the Canada*
West India Islands, South America, and even to Eu
rope, in considerable quantities. At the manufactory
they employ a steam engine, besides a large number
of men, women and girls, in the preparation of the
medicine, making boxes, printing, Ice, and turn out,
ready for shipment, over 400 dozen per day, or nearly
•000 bottles. This is on enormous quantity.
The great sale the mediciuo has acquired, has in
duced a number of men to get up imitations, and there
is at the piesent time, other medicines for sale, that
arc colled 44 Dr. Tftwnsend's Sarsaparilla." One in par
ticular started a short time ago in New York, is called
44 Old Doctor Jacob Townseud's Sarsaparilla," and ap
parently with a view, by dint of advertising, and the
usual remedies resorted to in such allorts, to appropri
ate the name ot Dr. S. P. Tow mend's great remedy,
and thus guin all the advantages resulting from the
popularity of the name which ho has acquired for it,
by years of patient and expensive labors. Dr. S P.
Townsend, formerly of this city, as is well known
heie, is the inventor and original proprietor of the
medicine known as 44 Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, l '
and we think those persons who are attempting to sell
their article as the genuine, should be exposed
FROM THE
New York Dally Tribune.
QQ- We nubllthed an advertisement inadvertently
some time since that did injustice to Dr. 8. P. Town
send, who is the original proprietor of the preparation
of Sarsaparilla known as Dr. Townsend's. Other
parties have within the past lew months engaged or
connected themselves with a man by the name of
Townsend who put up a medicine and calls it by the
same name. This medicine was advertised in The
Tribune as the original, lie. This advertisement also
contained matter derogatory to the character of Dr.
8. P. Townsend and that of his medicine. We regret
it appeared, and in juatice to the Dr. make this ex
plauation.
FROM THE
New York Dally Sun.
Ds. Towxsknd's extraordinary advertisement,which
occupies on entire page of the Sim, will not oscape
notice. Dr. 8. 1\ Townsend, who is the origiual pro-
Srietor of Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, and whoae of
ce is next door to ours, whuro he has be en for sever
al y"\rs, is driving an immense business He receives
no less than four hundred dozen of Sarsaparilla per
day, and even this enormous quantity does not supply
the demand. No medicine ever gained so great a
popularity as his preparation of the Sarsaparilla. His
edition of Almanacs lor 1849 cost 039,000, and he
has paid the New York Sun for advertising, in the
last four years, over giu,?oo. and ho acknowledges
that it is the cheapest advertising he li£? had done.
This medicine is exported to tho Canadas, \7?*t in
dies, South America and Europe, in considerable
quantities, and is coming into general use in those
countries, as well as here.
Swindlers.
Druggists and others that sell Barsaparilla for the
Suiuine and original Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla.
at is not signed by S. P. Townsend, commits a fraud,
and swindles the customers. Men that would be
guilty of such an act, would commit any other fYaud

that ours is the only genuine.
Old Jacob Townsend.
Some people who are not well informed, and have
not read the papers, and not seen our advertisements,
have been led to suppose, that because these men ad
vertise their stuff as " Old Jacob Townsends," that it
must, of course, be the originnl. It is less than one
year since they commenced to make their medicine.
Ours has been in the market over ten years
Title Olcl Jacob Townsend.
They are endeavoring to palm off on the public as
an old Physician, lie. He Is not a regular educated
Physician, and never attempted to manufacture a med
icine, until those men hired him for the use of his
name. They say they do not wish the people to be
lieve that their Sarsaparilla is ours, or the same—but
the better to deceivo the public, they at the same time
assert llsot their'* is the Old Dr. Townsend's, and the
original; and endeavor to make the people believe
that the stuff they manufacture, is the Dr. Townsend's
Sarsaparilla, that has performed so many wonderful
cures for the past ten years, and which has gained a
reputation which no other medicine ever enjoyed—
whioh is a base, villainou-, unprincipled falsehood.
We have commenced suits agaftut these men for
damages. We wish it tobj understood, that the old man
is no relation to Dr. Townsend whatcvor. In their ad
vertisements und circulars, they publish a number of
gross falsehoods respecting Dr. Townsend, which we
will not notice.
False Reports.
Our opponents have published in the papers, that
Dr. S. P. Townsend was dead. This they send to their
fients about the country, who report that we have
yen up business, lie. lie. The public should be oa
ieir guard, and not be deceived by these unprinci
pled men.

ATIVE PILLS, they have succeeded in
curing porno of the worst cases, of disease
eve; recorded, and are daily accomplishing
the restoration of persons alter having tried
in vain to obtain relief from any other
source. One of the Proprietors is a regular
physician of extensive experience, who da
votes his lime exclusively to their prepera
lion. For FEVEIt it AGUE, they hove nev
er yet failed. At least one thousand cases
in the neighborhood of Philadelphia, have
been cured since the first of Sept., last. In
Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Liver Complaint,
Scrofula, for Worms, and all other diseases
of children, they arc unequalled by anything
ever prepared for the purpose, while for the
various diseases of Females there is 110 me
dicine can compare with them. There is
more of them sold—they are in greater de
mand than any other pill—and when once
introduced in a family, they need no other
medicine. Each box containing Fifty Pills,
renders lliem the cheapest, while they are
decidedly the best, as well as the mildest in
action, of any now in the market.
The Eilitor of the "City Item" thus
speaks of them:
IV READER, you are suffering from fever
anil ague, and you have never tried Won
dett's Vegetable Rcstora ive Pills. Shake no
more. There is still hope for you—you may
yet be cured- Go, or send at once to A.
Weeks & Co., 70 North Eighth street., anil
procure a box of these unrivaled pills, which
are a sovreign antidote for this distressing
complaint.
Col. Forney of the Pcnnsyloanian,
says:
WORSDEI.I.'S PILLS. —This excellent family
medicine is daily winning new triumphs
over disease, and consequently in the high
road to public favor. In tho removal of the
every day ills that (lesh is heir to, we know
of no belter compound. We heard the oth
er day of a desperate case of scrofulous o
ruptious of the head and face being euirely
cured by tliera.
Du Sollc of the "Times," says 1
tIT The great popularity of Worsdell's
Vegetable Pills, is attributed to the just mer
it which they really possess. They have
been nuietly gaining the fame they now
have, by the force of their own virtues.
The means usually employed to give eclat
to new remedies have not been adopted by
the proprietors. They have been content to
let their medicine speak for itself. It is now
doing it in every section of the country.
They are for sale by most of the Store
