PULMONARY CONSUMPTION, from its
having almost always baffled the most skil
ful medical treatment, has very justly been
termed the "Opprobrium of Physicians;"
and, until within a few years, been gener
ally considered incurable, although many
medical men of the highest standing, a
nteing whom we may mention Laennec and
his friend Bay/e—both distinguished au
thors, admit that this much dreaded disease
may be cured, even in its advanced stages,
when the lungs are not completely disor
ganized. The remedy which we now of
fer, Wiiter's Balsam of Wild Cherry, for
the cure of this disease, not only emanates
from a regular Physician, but has also been
well tested in all the complaints for which
it is recommended. It is not my intention
therefore, to cloak it in mystery, or in any
way deceive the public by overrating its
virtues; on the contrary, I shall simply
endeavor to give a brief statement of its
ustfulnese ; and flatter myself that its sur
prising efficacy will enable me to furnish
such proofs of its virtues as will satisfy the
most incredulous, that Consumption may
and •"CA•N DE CURED," if this medi
cine be resorted to in time.

THE MOST EFFECTUAL OF ALL KNOWN
REMEDIES
Dr. Drake's Panacea,
The only radical cure for Conauwplion
Iry ALSO removes and permanently runts all
at all diseases arising from an impure state of
the blood—viz.: Scrofula or King's Evil, Rheu
matism, Obstinate Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples.
or Pestules on the face, Blotches, Biles, Chronic
Sore Eyes, Ring Worm or Tester, Scald Head,
Enlargement and Pain of the Bones end Joints,
Stubborn Ulcers, Syphilitic Symptoms, Sciatica
or Lumbago, diseases arising from an injudicious
use of3lercury,Diopsy, Exposure or Imprudence
in life: also Chronic Constitutional Disorders.
In this medicine several innocent but very po•
tent articles of the•vegetable kingdom are united,
forming a compound entirely different in its char
acter and properties from any other preparation,
and unrivalled in its operation on the system
when laboring under disease. It should be in the
bands of ever• person, who, by business, or gener
al course of life, is predisposed to the very many
aliments that render life a curse, instead ofa bless

It cures the disease and at the same time,impuerte

INDIGESTION.—No medicine perhaps has
ever been discovered which gives so much tone
to the stomach and causes the secretion of a
healthy gastric juice to decompose the food as Dr.
Drake's Panacea.
RHEUEATIS.M.—Dr. Drake's Panacea is n
eed with the greatest scenes in Rheumatic Com
plaints, especially such as are chronic. It cures
by driving out all impurities and final humours
which have accumulated in the system, which
are the Cause: t ot Rheunsatism,Gout, and Swirling'
of the joints. Other remedies sometimes give
temporary :relief; this entirely eradicates the db.
ease from the system, even when the limbs and
bones are draadfully l wollen.
coNsummoir can be cured. Coughs, Ca
tarrh, Broathitis, Spitting of Blood, Asthma. Dif.
ficult or profuse Espectorition, Hectic Flush,
Night Sweats, Pain in the tide, Ike., have been
cured, and can be with as ankh 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. We
would earnestly recommend those afflicted to give
it a trial—and we belive they will not have oft&
don to regret it. The system is cleansed and
strengthened, the - (deem on The longs are heated,

Saittiareana.A.--This celebratUd 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
invented an apparatus for the purpose 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 disco
very is the result of years devoted to
chemical experiments in testing various
modes of preparation, enabling them tocon
centrate in the most efficient form all the
medical value of the true Sarsaparilla ; and
they have at last accomplished this most
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 priucplc on which the
restorative virtue of the Sarsaparilla de
ponds, is entirely preserved.
