NOTICE
DOCTOR EDMUND LANDIS'S
PATENT EKIIIJIBLE SPRING TRANS.
For The Melioration and Core of Hernia.
HUMANITY is deeply indebted to the ingenuity
and persev?rance of Dr Edmund Landis, a citi
zen of Lancaster, PennsylvaniaAT valuable improve
ment in the construction of the Truss for the meliora
tion of Hernia or Rupture, which, after being careful
ly tested by application to a number of patients, hag
never failed to give relief, and in most cases has proved
successful in effecting a permanent cure.
This improved Truss has been submitted to the most
eminent members of l i tre medical profession, who, af
ter fair trial and exaniination, have concurred in pro
nouncing it an important discovery, particularly as it
admits of perfect adjustment to the seat of the com
plaint, and of bearing with certainty upon the point
where the pressure is required. without admitting of a
chance of change or of shifting by any action of the
muscles, hip or body,—the outer spring, which is very
elastic. only giving, by which arrangement every move
ment is accommodated.
The suffering and imminent danger to life conse
quent upon that most distressing of all complaints,
Strangulated Hernia, need never be apprehended by
persons who Near this improved Truss, and the patient
any cherish a confident hope, that in consequence of
the intestine or omentum never being permitted to
protrude in the slightest degree, that the distended
ring or opening will gradually contract, and a perma
nent cure be effected, when the Truss may be dispens
ed with altogether.
- This Truss may be very properly termed, Dr L kti
DIS' COMPOUND SPRING TRUSS; the springs
being 2 in number, the inner and the outer, the latter
lying over the former. Tae exterior spring is three
times the length of the interior, upon the end of the
latter the compress or elipticnl pad or block is fasten
ed, which rests upon the affected part. There is a
small adjusting screw, which passes through the outer
spring, immediately over the pad or block, and is
formed to bear upon any part of the block, so that the
pressure can be made to act immedintaly upon or over
the rupture with the degree of force or weight which
the case may require. The whole apparatus is so ad
justed as to fit any peculiarity of form, at the same
time so flexible as to occasion neither inconvenience
nor uneasiness to the wearer,while following his usual
avocations.
The following distinguished members of the Med
ical profession have borne ample and unqualified testi- ;
mony to the palliative and curative value and impor
tance of Dr Landis' discovery: George 13 Kerfoot, M
D., and John L Atlee, M D., of Lancaster: Geo M'-
Clelland, M D., Professor of Surgery in the Pennsyl
vania and Jefferson College, and Samuel M'Clelland,

HATHAWAY'S
Patent Hot Air Cooking Stoves
THE Subscriber having entered into the stove busi-
PICSSID Pitt:bilrgh, respect fully informs the pub
lie that he intends carrying it on in its variens branches
at t he warehouse No. WOOD STREET, above
Fifth street, where he will be prepared to supply
purchasers with any articles in hit line. In ruldit ins
to other Stoves which be will have on hand, he has
obtained the right to manufacture and sell Hathaway's
Patent Hot Air Cooking Stoves. Tbis stove is pro
nounced superior to any other now in use in the United
States; it is more durable in its construction, and bet
ter adapted to the use of baking, roasting and cooking,
as it is heated very regularly by confining the air in
the stove; and it is a great saving of fuel as well as
labor. I will keep on hand a sufficient number to sup
ply all demands if possible; I have five different sizes,
and will sell them on reasonable terms, according to
sizes. I have now in use upwards of fifty in and about
this city; all pat in use within six months. Being a
ware that the People of Western Pennsylvania have
been imposed upon by the introduction of new and high
ly recommended Stoves which were badly constructed,
and ha virg soon failed and become useless. I will grant
to persona wishing to procure the Hot Air Stove, the
privilege of using. it a sufficientlength of time to prove
its superior quality before I ask them to purchase.
Persons notifying me from a distance by letter, can
have stoves put up at any time, as I have wagons to
carry them out; I therefore invite Farmers and all per
sons to come and judge for themselves; also to try them
and prom that it is to your advantage to have one.
All oraers will be promptly attended to by the subscri
ber. ROBERT DONAVAN.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Miller's Mansion House:Sept, 19,1844
Mr. R. Dori kVA have m use one of Flath
awa)'s Hot Air Cooking Stoves, which I got from you
last Spring. It affords me much pleasure to recom
mend it for its excellence. So far as my knowledge
extends, I have no hesitation in saying it is the best
stove now in use. I need not particularize its merits,
but would advise all disposed to possess an article of
the kind, to adopt the best method of satisfying them
selves, that ia, to try it; and I doubt not they will be
satisfied. D. R. MILLER.
IVashingion Temperance Hops',
• Pittsburgh, Sept. 19, 1844.
Mr. R. DON AVON—Sir —I have had in use for five
months, one of Hathaway's Hot Air Conking Stoves,
and I have no hesitation in saving it k the best stove
now in use. The various kinds of cooking it is calcu
lated to do at the same time, and the small quantity
of fuel required, makes it an object worthy the atten
Lion of all who desire a good stove.
embrace this opporturity to recommend is
Hot Air Cooking Stoves; I have used the one you put
up for me constantly all summer, and I must say it is
a grand article. I beliEve it is superior to any other
stove now in use in this city. The oven bakes well,
and is large enough to bake four large loaves of bread
at one time; it also cooks very speedily, and it requires
very little coal. I think them worthy the attention of all
who wish a good stove; to such I would say, try them
and prove what they ore.

To make vourn look so, with a grin, replied Josh,
I've bought you a bottle of Thorn's Tooth Wash,

And since they have tried this, cast all others away
But to prove it the best to make the teeth shine,

And see if this tooth wash of Thorn's is not fine.

I take pleasure in stating, baying made use of
"Thorn's Tea Berry Tooth Wash," that it is one of the

bines neatness with convenience. While it cleanses
the enamel and removes the tartar from the teeth, its
perhme yields a fragrance peculiarly desirable.

The undersigned have used "Thorn's Compound
Tea Berry Tooth Wash," and have found it to be an

preventing the accumulation of Tartar, and purifying
the Breath. Having thoroughly tested its virtues, we
take pleasurein recommending it to the public, believ

There Is a considerable amount of bonds un hands,
to be resorted to in case of losses, before any capital
subscribed can be used. This is the great security,

satisfaction.

responsibility whatever; beyond the premium actually
paid in by him, and therefore as possessing the Mutual

its most attractive form. my9-tf.
