    - A Pvtt Waiter General In JMsje.lsav .- ,
On my way to the North, in 183.f in company-wif

demanded our bill ol'expcnses. . The landlord
smilingly answered, that he was too happy to

consented to receive his hospitality gratuitously,
since heinsi.tiej nn it, but tny friends, I would
not consent that they should feast at his expense
-oh, no! They must be allowed to pay for

would take pay from them and' he did. '

IOR twenty yeara I was severely afflicted with
Ttrran on the Face and Head: the disease
commenced wbefl 1 was seventeen years old, and
continued until the Fall of 188, varying in vio
lence, but without ever disappearing. During most
of the time, great part of my face waa covered with
the eruption, frequently attended with Violent itch
ing t my head swelled at times until it Ml as if it
would burst the swelling waa ao great, that I could
scarcely get my hat on. During lha long perioj
that I was afflicted with Ihe disease, I used great
many at plications, (among them several celebrated
preparations) aa well aa taking inward remedies,
including a number of bottles of Swaim' Panarra,
Txtrnrt of Sanapnrilln, Ac, In fact. It would be
impossible to enumerate all Ihe medicines I used
I was also under the Care of two of the most dis
tinguished physicians of this city, but without re
ceiving much benefit, and I despaired of ever being
cored. In the fall of 183n, the disease al the time
being very violent, I commenced using 'lha Kinte
Ointment, (prepared by Vaughan It Davis.) In
a few anplieationa the violent itching ceased; the
swelling atieted, the f ruiHion began to disappear,
and before I bad used ajar Ihe disease waa entirely
cured. It has now been nearlv a year and a half
aineeVand there is not a vestige of the disease re-
mainirm, except lha scars from the deep pits formed
by the disease. It ia impossible for me to describe
in a crrtinrais the severity of the disesss and my
suffering, but I will be pleased to give a fuller ae-
eonnt ' to any person wanting further satisfaction
who will call on me. At lha time I commenced
using Ihe Rose Ointment I would have given hun
dreds of dollaia lo be rid of the disease. Since u
sing it, I have recommended it to 'several persons,

with Tetter in Ihe hands end feel for upwards
of forty yeara; the disesse was attended generally
with violent itching and swelling. I applied to
number of physicians, and used a great many appli
cations without effecting a' cure. ' About a year
since, I applied the Rose Ointment, which entirely
slopiied ihe itching, and a lew applications immedi
ately cured the disease, which there has been no
