    FEELER'S PATENT CHAIX
OVEHSHOT THRASHERS, FEED
CUTTERS, tic.
The above cut represents a single or ore
horse machino with the hands necessary to
attend it.
The subscribers take thia method of in
forming the public in general, that they have
for aome time been carrying on, in all their
various brr.nchee, the manulaciuic and sale
ol Wheeler's Patent Chain Horse Powers,
'together with Overshot Thrashers, Feed Cut
ters, Revolving Horse Rakea, Ike., in Light
Street, Columbia co., and the town ol North
umberland, Northumberland co, Pa.
The Horse-Fowci's
•re strong and durable, and very simple in
their construction: run light, and oro not
liable to gel out ol order. With a slight ele
vation, the weight alone of the horse or
.horses drives tha Thrasher with forre anil
t *tpeed. They may also lie used for various
other purposes, such a driving Circular Saws,
Turning Lathes, Rating Machines, Griud-
StOftes. Churns, etc. etc.
The Overshot Machines
have several advantages over the machines
now in ue. The apron or feeding table is
level, and of a proper height to ullow the
feeder to stand erect, and feed evenly and
easily without annoyance from dust: sticks
and stone ore not liable to get into the
thrasher, and the grain is not scattered, but
thrown down to the 'eparator. The two
horse machine, attended by from two to
three hands, will thrash from 100 to 150
bushels of wheat, or double the amount of
oats per day. 7he one horse machine, 'at
tended by two or three bauds, will thrash
from 50 to 7.5 bushels ol wheat, or double
the amount of onts per day. The Feed-
Cutter is a Hrst tale article, and is very much
used. It cuts fine and very fast; stalks are
rot by it 3-8 of on inch long, at he rate
of Irom 300 to 500 sheaves per day.
■ The foregoing is a brief statement of the
qualities and character of our machines.—
There probably is a larger number of
Wheeler's Patent Powers made and sold
than any other kind. We offor our ma
chines to the farming communi'y with full
confidence in their merits, and invite all in
terested to call and examine litem befoie
purchasing elsewhere.

ordering machines, address the subscriber.*

•"TpIIEY never did do more than give tempo
rary relief and they never will. It is be
cause they don't touch the cause of the dis
ease. The cause ol all ague and biilious dis
eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias
ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by
its
NATURAL ANTIDOTE,
and all diseases eaufed by it disappears al
once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this
Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is
perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate
of the celebrated chemist, J. R. Chilton, of
New Yotk, to this effect, is attached to every
bottle; therefore if it does no good it cac do
no harm.
This is more than can be said of Quinine,
Arsenic, or any tonic in existence, as their
ue is ruinous to the constitution nnd brings
011 DUMB AGUE, which never allows aj)tT
-111 illusitaiion of these truths I annex some
extracts Iroiu letter just received from a
Physician :
Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56.
JAS. A. RHODKA, E-q. Dear Sir: Yours of
2d in*l. is at hand. The Cure arrived late
last year and the difficulty in gelling any one
to try it was greatly increased from the fact
that a remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the-puhlic, as be
ing better than usiog Quinine, —not knowing
1 presume that Iho remedy they needed to
escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG
ITSELF!
This remedy,(known as "Smith'sTonic,' l )
would invariably BRLAK an ague, but it did
not CURE it, and it would ofien return with
renewed vigor. The one circumstance 1
deemed in your favor, if 1 could institute a
test comparison between it and your CURE.
The following is the result:
Three persons took your "Cure," all rff
which were coses of "Quotidian Intermit
tent Fever," of many weekssthtuling. They
had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa
sionally missing a dull, but it was, (as in all
such cases,; slowly wearing them out, and
laying the foundation of other and severer
maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radi
cal cuie of all three of these cases with your
remedy, and they have hot had a chill since.
In all three of these cases the ''Smith's Ton
ic" had been used, and would, as before sta
ted, break the chili, but after a period or two
had Plapsed it would return.
1 think there will be no difficulty now in
giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of
any other remedy now in use here. &r. fitc.
VILLI AM BUCKNEit, M. D.
RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CUKE, or
Antidote to Malaria, 1110 only harmless reme
dy in existence, is equal'y certain as a PRE
VENTIVE, as a "CURE." Take it when
you (eel the chill coining on, and you will
never have a single one.

been induced to extend the sphere of his pro

through the medium of his "Medt;al Manual

It is a volume that should be in the hand cf
every family in the land, whether used as a

Established 20 years ogo by Dr. KIN'KELIN,

Spruce and Pine, Philadelphia, Pa.
INVALIDS
Are apprised that Dr. KINKELIN confines
Ins practice to a particular brunch of medi
cine, which engages his individual attention.
He cautions the unforlnnale against the a
buse of mercury; thousands are annually
mercurialized cull ol life. Kucent affections
/are ptamptly extinguished.
TWENTY YEARS' EXPEDIENCE
In Ihe treatment of a class of diseases hilh
erlo neglected and imperfectly understood
has enabled Dr. KIN'KELIN, Author of a'
work on Self Preservation, to prove hat nine
tenths of llio causes of nervous debility, lo
cal and constitutional weakness, mental and
| physical suffering, are traceable to certain
habits, forming Ihe most secret yet deadly
and latal springs of domestic misery am]
premature mortality.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE,
There is an evil habit sometimes indulged
in by boys, in solitude, and which, if not re
formed in due tunc, not only begets serious
obstacles to matrimonial happiness.but gives
rise to a series of protracted, insidious, and
devastating afflictions. Few
give way to Ibis pernicious "practice are a
ware of the consequences, until they find
tho nervous system shattered, feel strange
and unaccountable feelings, and vague fears
in the mind.
The unfortunate thus affected becomes fep.
hie, is unable to labor with accustomed vi-.
or, or to apply his minis to study; his steple
lardy and weak, he is dull, irresolute, and
engages in his sport with less energy than
usual.
If ho emancif afe himself before the prao
lice has done its worst, and en - er malrimony
his marriage is unfruitful, and his sense tells
him that this is caused by his early follies.
Those are considerations which should awa
ken the attention of those similarly situated.
MARRIAGE
Requires the fulfillment of several condition*
in order that it inay be really the c.iuso of
mutual happiness. Could the veil which
covers the origin of domestic wretchedness
be raised, nnd its true source in every in*
stance disclosed —in how many coul.t it be
traced to physical disqualifications and their
attendant disappointments! Apply then while
it is ypt time, in order to have your unstrung
and relaxed organization rebraced, reviv.fiad
and strengthened.
REMEMBER,
He who places himself under Dr. Kinkelin'e
treatment may religiously confide in his hon
or as a genteman, and rely upon the assur
ance, that the secrets of Dr. K's patients will
never be disclosed.
Young man—let no false modesty deter
you from making your case Known to one
who, from education and respectability, ran
befriend you.
Too many think they will conceal the se
cret in their own hearts, and cure themse Ives
Alas! how often is this a fatal delusion, and
how many a promising young man, who
might have been an ornament to society, bos
failed from the earth.
Strictures of the ttrntlira are rapidly re
moved by the application of a new thera
peutical agent, used only by Dr. K. Weak
ness and Constitutional Debility promptly
cured, and full vigor restored,
"1 am a man and litem nothing which
relates to man foreign to my feelings."
