THE GREAT COUNTER IRRITANT! !
The virus of disease often makes its way
to ihe internal organs through the pores of
the skin. This penetrating Oinimem, melt
ing under the hand as it is rubbed in, is ab
sorbed through the same channels, and,
reaching the seat of inflamßtion, promptly
and invatiably subdues it, wlte her located
in the kidrievs the liver, the lungs, or any
other important organ. It penetrates the
surface to the interior, through the countless
tubes that communicate with the skin, as
summer rain passes into lite fevered earth,
diffusing its cool and regenerating influence.
SKIN DISEASES AND GLANDULAR
SWELLINGS.
Every species of exterior irritation i
quickly reduced by the ami inflammatory
action ol this Ointment. Angry Emotions,
such as salt Rheum, Erysipelas, 'letter,
Ringworm, Scald Head, Nettle Rash, Scab
ies, (or Itch) &c , die out, to return no more,
under this application. Hospital experi
ence in all parts of the World proves its
infallibility in diseases of the skin, the mus
| cles, ihe join's and the elands.
ULCERS, SOKES, AND TUMORS.
The effect ol this unrivalled external
remedy upon Scrofula, and other virulent
ulcers and sores, almost mnraculous. It
first discharges the poison which produces
suppuration aud proud flesh, and thus Ihe
cures hich its healing properties afterwards
complete are safe as well as permanent.
WOUNS, BRUISES, BURNS, AND.
SCALDS
In cases of the Iracture of the bones,'in
juries caused by steam explosions, Bruises,
Bums, Scalds, Rheumatism, Stiffness of the
Joir.ts, and contraction of the sinews, it is
employed and warmly recommended by
the faculty. This marvellous remedy lias
been introduced by its inventor in persons
into all the leading Hospitals ol Europe,and
no private household should be without It.
UNDKFINABLE TESTIMONY.
Tbe Medical Staff of tbe French and Eng
lish Armies in the Crimea officially signed
their approval of HOLLOWAY'S Ointment,
as the most reliable dtessing for sabre cuts,
stabs, and gun-shot wounds. It is also
Used by the surgeons of the Allied Navies.
Both the Ointment ami Pills should be used
in the following cases :
Bunions, Mercurial Eruptions,
Burns, Piles,
Chapped Hands, Rheumatism,
Chilblains, Salt Rheum,
Fistula, Scalds.
Lumbago, Skin Diseases,
Swelled Glands Sprains,
Sore Legs, Stiff Joints,
Sore Breasts, Teller,
Sore Heads, Uleers,

Ayer's Sarsaparilla
A compound remedy, in which we have la
bored to produce the most effectual alterative
that can be made. It is u concentrated extract
of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other
substances of still greater nltcrative power as
to afford an effective antidote for the diseases
Sursaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed
that such a remedy is wanted by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their cure must prove
of immense service to this large class of our
afflicted fellow-citizens. How completely this
compound will do it has been provcuby exper
iment on many of the worst cases to be found
of the following complaints:
SCROFULA AND SCROFULOUS COMPIAINIS,
ERUPTIONS AND ERUPTIVB DISEASES, ULCLRS,
PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, TUMORS, SALT liiir.UM,
SCALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AND SYPHILITIC AF
FECTIONS, MERCURIAL DISEABB, DROPSY, NEU
RALGIA OR Tio DOULOUREUX, DEBILITY, DYS
PEPSIA AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, Rose
OR SR. ANTHONY'S FIRE, and indeed the whole
class of complaints arising from IMPURITY OF
THE BLOOD.
This compound will bo found a great pro -
moter of health, when taken in the spring, to
expel the foul humors which fester in the
| blood at that season of the year. I!y the time
r ly expulsion of them many rankling disorders
are nipped in the hud. Multitudes can, by
| the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous
sores, through which the system will strive to
rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do
this through the natural channels of the body
by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the
vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities
bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions,
or sores; clcanso it when you find it is ob
structed aud sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder
is felt, people enjoy better health, and live
longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the
blood healthy, and all is well; but with this
pabulum of life disordered, there can bo no
lasting health. .Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery of
life is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the
reputation, of aecomplisliing these cndß. But
the world has been egregiously deceived by
preparations of it, partly because the drug
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it, but more because many preparations,
pretending to be concentrated extracts of it,
contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla,
or any thing else.
During late years the public have been mis
led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart
of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most
of these have been frauds upon the sick, for
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa
rilla, but often no curative properties whatev
er. Hence, bitter and painful di appointment
has followed the use of the various extracts of
Sarsaparilla which flood the markit, until the
name itself is justly despised, and ha" become
synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend
to supply such a remedy as shall rescuo tbs
| name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we think we have ground for
believing it has virtues which are irresistibls
by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend
ed to cure. In order to secure their complete
eradication from the system, the remedy should
be judiciously token according to directions on
the bottle. s
