INDIGESTION.--No medicine perhaps has

healthy gastric juice to decompose the food as Dr.
Drake s Panacea.
RHEUEATISM.—Dr. Drake's Panacea is U.
teed with the greatest success in Rheumatic Com
plaints, especially such as are chronic. It cures
by driving out all impurities and foul humours
which have accumulated in the system, which
are the cause of Rheumatism, (40111,am! Swellings
of the joints. Other remedies sometimes give
tempotnay,relief; this entirely eradicates the dis
ease fras the system, even when the litidas,and
bones are dreadfully swollen.

tarrh, Ili oechitis, 'Spitting of lilooll, Asthma. hid
heult or profuse Expectoration, Hectic Flush,
Night Sweats, Pain in the side, have been
cured, and can be w ith as much certainty as any
other simple disease. A specific has long been
sought for but in vain until the discovery of Dr.
Drake's Panacea. It is mild and sale but certain
and efficacious in its operation, and cannot possi
bly injure the most delicate constitution. Wu
would earnestly recommend those afflicted to give
it a trial--and we belive they will not have occa
sion to regret it. The system us cleansed and
terengthened, the ulcers oil the lungs are heated.

Dialt ST it —ln reply to your question respect
ing the use of Di. Drake's. l'anaves, I will say,
that although a perfect disbelieve' in the existence
of u Panama, or cure for oil diseases, however val
uable it may be in vermin conditions of tie sys
toin, still I have believed that a cure for Con
sumption would be discovered sooner or later. and
curiosity led me to try your medicine in two very
inveterate cares. They were pronounced by the
attending physicians to be rtitmos.sar toss c at
-1,011", and abandoned by them us Intitealde. One
of the persons had been limier the treatment 01
several very able practitioners for a number of
years, and they said she had "old fashioned Con
stomp, ion norninned with Sero,fulu?' and that she
might linger for sometime, but could not be 'per
manently relieved. In hoth cases the effect of :he
Panacea has been most gratifying. Only tour or
five bottles wens used by one of the persons 'mime
she began to improve rapidly. The other took
about ten, I will only add that familier as lan
with consumption by inheritance and by exten
sive observation as a study, and knowing also the
injurious effects in nine cases out of ten of tar,
boneset, and other vegetable tonics, as well as.
of :natty of the expectorants and sedatives, I
should never have recommended the use of Dr.
Drake's Panacea if I had not been acquainted
with the ingredients. Suffice it to say that these
are recominended by our most popular and 61 ien
tific physicians, and in their present combined
state form probably the best alterative that has
ever been made. The cure is in accordance with
a theory of Consumption broached in France a
few years ago by one of her most eminent wri•
ters on medicine, and now established by facts
which admit of no dispute. Very respectfully
yours, L. C. GUNN.
To use the language of another, "Dt. Drake's
Panacea is always salutary in its effects—never
injurious. It is not an Opiate --it is not en Ex
pectorant. It is not intended to lull the invalid
ittto a fatal security. It is a great remedy —a
grand healing and curative compound, the great
and only remedy which medical science and skill
has yet produced for the treatment of this hither
to unconquerable malady. And•no person afflict
ed with this dreidlitt disease, will be just to him.
self and his friends if he go down to the grave
without testing its virtues. A single 'mute. in
most cases, will produce a favorable change in
the condition of any patient, hoivever low."
TO THE LADlES.—Ladies of pale complex.
ion and consumptive labia, and such as are de•
bilitated by those obstructions which females are
liable to, are restored by the me of a bottle or
tWo, to bloom and vigor. It is ti . far the best
remedy ever discovered for weakly children, and
such as hive bad humors; being pleasant, they
take it. It immediately restores the appetite,
strength and color,
Nothitig can be more surprising than its invig
orating effects oa the human frame. Persons all
weakness and lassitude belore taking it, at once
become robust and full of energy under its influ
ence. It immediately counteracts the nerveless
ness of the female frame.

SARSAPARILLA.—This celebrated root, so
famous as a medicine for the cure of di
seases of the blood, rheumatism, &c., has
of late acquired additional repute by an im
portant discovery made in its preparation
by the well known house of A. B. Sands
& Co. of the city of New York, who have
irrvettled- ttn4pperstus-for-the- palterer of
thoroughly extracting' the virtues of the
plant. 'The inventors say of this ma
chine, in connection with the preparation
they produce by it, that the whole diveo.
very is the result of years devoted to
chemical experiments in testing various
modem ofreparation, enabling them to con
ceutrate in the most efficient form all the
medical value of the true Sarsaparilla ; and
they have at last accomplished this must
desirable result' by means of an entirely
new, ingenious, and costly apparatus,.
The process throughout is governed by
strictly chemical laws, so that the essential
principles, or the princplo on which the
restorative virtue of the Sarsaparilla de
pends, is entirely preserved.
