FOR CONSUMPTION.

Bleed, Diffieuhy ofltrrathing, Pain in the Side.
Breast and Chest, Influenza, Whooping Cough, Croup
and all diseases of the Liver and
LUNGS.
Has now been before the puplic for stsreral years
During which time its value has been tested by thou
sands who were laboring under the numerous diseases
which have their origin in a common Catarrh or Cold,
and which this medicine is designed to cure. The
result of this trial has been to place "Duncan's Reme
dy" at the head of the patent medicines of the day. .
BY ITS OWN MERITS •ND EXCELLENCE,
it has attained a popularity excelling that ninny other
preparation, now offered to the public for the preven
tion and cure of that large and frightful class of diseas
es which so frequently lead to. and tern:tinge in
CONSUMPTION,
It is now offered to the afflicted with confidence as
the BEST preparation for Coughs, Colds. &c. extant.
We are warranted in assuming for it this high charac
ter, by the proofs, vhich wo are constantly receiving,
of the invalt/bla benefits derived from its use. Tes
timonials and recommendations of the strongest kind
are constantly being received from all quarter, by the,
Proprietor and Agents.
In relieving cases of Asthma, Difficulty in Breathing,
Pain in the side and Breast, it is unequalled; in cur
ing Bronchitis, Coughs and Colds, and in short remov
ing all the symptoms of approaching Pulmonary Con
sumption,
173 SUCCESS BO BEEN VNPARALELLED
No other medicine has.proved itself so really inval
uable. Thousands in Pittsburgh and the vicinity, are.
as far as human ngency is concerned, indebted to Dr.
Duncan's Expectorant Remedy for prolonging life and
health. Many persons after using the other cough
medicines of the day without effect, have bean com
pletely restored by this truly
GREAT DISCOVERY in the HEALING ART
A strong and undoubted evidence of i's worth, is to
be found ;n the high degree of popular favor which it
has received since its introduction into the West.—
Whetever an agency has been opened for its sale, and
wherever it has received a fair and honest trial, it has
become firmly established as a
STANDARD FAMILY MEDICINE.
It is rapidly superseding the use of the many nos
trums, which have so long imposed upon the communi
ty, which have obtained their name only by puffing
and braggadocio, and which are vow destined to be
thrown aside to make way for the best cough medicine
of the present age. It is nut pretended that it will
positively cure evety case of the disease, for which it
is designed, but it is honestly believed that in every
case where it gets a fair chance it will erect a cure.
Coming, then, before the people with the highest
recotnmeudations, it is at least, worthy of a trial by all
who are afflicted with any of that large and dangerous
class of diseases.
The following is a specimen of the nemerous testi
monials which we have received. It a frost a eHY
SICIAN of high standing in Ohio.
Dear Sir—Having had occasion to wimesstinvetf
feet of Dr. Duncan's Expectorant Remedy on Mr Eli
Young in a case of Pulmonary Consumption, 1 felt it
my duty to make a brief statement in order that others
that are or may be afflicted with the same complaint
may be benefitted by the same remedy.
Ho was attacked with inflammation in the left lobe
of the lunge in March 1343, attended with acute pain,
great difEcultT of breathing, and a severe cough, which
preceded rapidly to suppuration: and not withstanding
the use and application of the best remedies prescribed
by nun ambers, the complaint in a few days began to
exhibit evident symptoms of ulceration.
In this distressing surge of the complaint, I had re
course to DrDencan's Expectorant Remedy for con
snmption, which had the effect of checking the disease
immediately, and in a few days the pain ceased, the
breathing became, free and easy, the cough left him,
and the expectoration subsided, the consequences of
which was that in using six bottles• ho has recovered
his health, and is restored to his family.
1 do hereby certify the above to be true statement of
my case as far as comes within my knowledge.

COTE OF A LETTER FROM Dtts. LANYRENCE AND
HENRICKSON.
New Lebanon, Slate of New York
WoRTAY FEDISND:—Haring made a thorough trial
of the Medicated Vavor Bath for four months past, in
our societies in New Lebanon and . ‘Vatervliet, we think
it but justice to-state, that we consider it a valuabie
improvement in the healing art. Its power in reduc
ing both chronic and acute inflamation, also in remov
ing spasms, is certainly very great. In cases of ob
structed perspiration, it is unqoegficraably the safest
and best remedy that we bare ever seen. Several
persons in our society, who were scarcely free from a
catarrhal affection during most of the winter months
for several years past, have found permanent Teller by
using the Bath a few times; and the predisposition to
take cold, as it is commonly termed, seems to be tvliel
ly removed . Obstructed perspiration, is certainly in
our changeable climate, one of the most fruitful',aour-'
ces of disease, and any remedy that is capable of re
moving the predisposition to it, must be considered a
great blessing to mankind; and as such we do not hesi
tate to recommend the Medicated Vapor Bath.

La! what makes your teeth so unusually whitht
Quoth Josh's dulcinia tuhim t'other night,
To make yourn look so, with a grin, replied Josh,
I'm bought you a bottle of Thorn's Tooth Wash,
'Tisthe best now inure, so thegentlefolks say,
And since they have tried this, cast. all others away-.
But to prove it the best to make the teeth shine,
Look again, my dear Sol, at the lustre of Mine.
Then try thisgreat tooth wash,
The Teaberry tooth wash ;
And gee if this tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.
Having tried Dr. "Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash,"
and become acquaintedwith theingredients of its coin
position, [cheerfully say, I consider it one of the safest,
as it is one of the most pleasant tooth washes now in
use. DAVID HUNT, Dentist
Pittsburgh, Sapt. 15, 1849
I take pleasure in stating, saving mane Use_ of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wad" that it is one of the
best dentrifices in use. Being in Illiquid form. it com
bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel and removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perfume yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.
J. I'. TIBBETTS, M. 13.
The undersigned have used "Thorn's Compound
Tea Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an
extremely pleasant dentrifice, exercising a most salu
tary influence over the Teeth and Gums; preserving
those indispensable members from premature decay,
preventing the accumulation of Tartar, and purifying
the Breath. flaring tlit:woligltly tested its virtues, we
take pleasurein reconimending it to the public, believ
ing it to he the hest article of theicind now in use.

est of their customers, to a very great extent,
by purchasing Spices, Drugs and Dye Wooods in the
Eastern markets, whole and in sticks, and getting
them ground and chipped at the Franklin Mannfacte
ry, Second street.
It is not generally known, bat nevertheless true, that
Drugs and spices sold in the East, are lower in price
than whole, of course the profit and cost of grinding
must be made up by adulteration; dye woods have at
least 15 per cent, and in some cases 25 per cent. of
water added to them. Now water, dust, cornmeal
and flaxseed meal are plenty here, and we can eat
them in their purity, if so it pleases vs, without pay
ing a pepper price with freight and premium added.
