J E FFJC R S 0 X IAN JIE P L 13 L tfJ A N. TO AVOID DISEASE AND ATTAIN HEALTH IS NOW IN THE POWER OF EVERY ONE, DR. BENJA MIN BRANDRETHS Vege table Universal Pills, Introduced into the United Stales, May 18, 1835 There has never been an instance of these cele brated Vegetable Universal Pills not giving relief ami perseverance in old, obstinate cases, is sure miking a cure, provided nature is not entirely ex hausted. They have cured since their introduc tion into this country at least 20,000 twenty thou sand persons of diseases heretofore always 'con sidered incurable. It is only Jive years since I opened the first office for the exclusive sale of this medicine in New York; yet, in that time I. have sold over twelve tniltions of boxes, and have now eighteen offices for their exclusive sale, at least one in every principal city in die Union, at an ex pense of near forty thousand dollars per year .And with the expenses of advertising, and other incidentals, the sum was a little over One Hun dred and Thirty Thousand Dollars for the year 1839; some idea may be formed how the medicine is appreciated from these facts; they are indeed the greatest blessing that ever yet has been be stowed on man. I have often found persons desirous to know how soon this medicine will cure them. It is im possible to say it altogether depends upon the state of the blood and humors. One thing may be lelied upon that if the pills are persevered with according to the printed direction which ac companies each box, the cure will be effected much sooner than the patient could have expected. The many lingering chronic diseases we daily see, are owing either to mercury or bleeding, or to not having been properly purged in fevers, iiiflama lions, cold, mcasels, small pox or lying in. It is utterly impossible for us to attain or keep health without sound purging. We maj fasten up the disorder by barks and tonics, but if it be in the bod, it must come out before health is enjoyed, and sooner or later it will break out of itself, worse than ever, if this method of purifying the body is delayed too long. No danger can ariss from purging with Brandreth's Pills. It has been proved, beyond doubt, that these celebrated Pills and the human body are naturally adopted one for thejother. By the use of this Glorious Medicine the contents or hu mors of the body, can be entirely evacuated, al tered, and completely regenerated: and in a man ner so simple as to give every day ease and pleas ure. Brandreth's Pills are no less a cure than a pre ventive of diseases. When we feel dull, pain in the head, back, or side weary on the least exer tionit is then we ought to take a dose of these Pills. This will always have a good effect, be cause it is impossible for pain to be in the body without the presence oi those humors which pro duce it, and it is only by their being forced out with purging that health can be restored. All that I have been able to ascertain, either by experience or from books has confirmed me in the opinion, that pain, every feeling contrary to health, is produced when the natural outlets of the body become incapable of discharging the corrupt hu mors generated in the bod, as fast as nature re quires their expulsion. And that to secure health, we have only to purge ouvselves, until health is restored. A practice which experience has es tablished, is fully able to produce this result, with out the possibility of any injurious effects. They who have adopted this simple plan have secured the bfst state of health their bodes -were capable of enjoying. The weak have become robust. The robust have become more so. All mankind would be benefitted by this practice, except physicians; and they would be bodilv, though not profession ally. Let me now recommend two things, never be bled, and never go to a Druggist for BrandrctlCs Pills. The first weakens the principle of life, and long keeps the blessings of health from the body. And the last, to purchase a Pill called Brandrcths of a Drurrgist, is to insure the purchaser a base counterfeit, entirely incapahle of producing the beneficial results of the genuine medicine. To in sure this it must be purchased of the undermen tioned Agents duly appointed by me, and who hold a regular certificate of agency, which is re newed yearly. There is an agent with one of these certificates in every town in the United States. Those purchasing at wholesale, must re member that all my travellers have a power of At torney, regularly proved to be my act before the Clerk of the county of New York. The following is a list of names of all the Ajfeuls in Monroe and Pike comities.

M.D. THE CONSTITUTION. What is that we call the Constitution ? The constitution is evidently that which constitutes, and that which constitutes is the blood. We, there fore, know that the blood is the constitution, and that a good or bad constitution is neither more nor loss than a good or bad state of the blood. There is no person who, having lost health, does not wish to have it restored. Use then the proper means. Ex pcl with Purgative Medicine all currupt humors from the body, and the blessing, Health, will be j the certain result: for all pains or unpleasant feel- j ituis proceed from the presence of corrupt or vi-j uated humors, which are the real cause ol every disease, and therefore the only disease to which the human frame is subject, because they clog up the veins and arteries, and prevent the free circulation of the blood. Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills cure this disease : because they remove the corrupt or vi tiated humors by the stomach and bowels, leaving the good humors to give life and health to the bo dy. It is morally itcposibl that they can fail to euro, nrovided Ncture bsjiot entirely oxhaustod. Pr."

Strcuusburg, April 7, 1841. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPIE. Boct. Joseph Priestly Peters' Celebrated Vegetable Antibilous Pills, are daily effecting some of the 7nost astonishing and wonderful cures that have ever been known, (he town and country are filed with their praise, the Palace and Poor-house alike echo with their vir tues in all climates and under all temperatures they still retain their wonderful virtues. PETERS' VEGETABLE PILLS. Breathes there the man who may not be occa sasionally benefited by the use of Peters' Pills No, assuredly not ; for the human frame, like any other structure, will fall into confusion and ruin, if neglected ; but, by the aid of medicine judi ciously applied, it is enabled to preserve a heal thy and even tone ; and it is the firt of well-tested public opinion, that Dr. Peters' pills are the me dicine of medicines in the prevention or cure of the general diseases which the human tenement is incidental to. Do men in robust health require medicine 1 Cer tainly, for the very excess of health begets cer tain diseases unless duly regulated. If the blood is suffered to run riot without correcting laxatives, costiveness, megrin, biles, scurvy, spleen, pimples, furred tongue, or offensive breath, are the inevita ble consequences ; for exuberance of health, like over-rich soil, becomes rank, and prone to the pro duction of weeds, if care is not taken to have it judiciously moderated. But healthy men have an antipathy to the very name of medicine ! And no wonder, for nineteen twentieths of all the medicines in the world com mence operations by making the people very sick, whom it was intended they should make very well; and thus in most cases the cure is considered rather worse than the disease. But Dr. Peters' Pills is the celebrated and particular exception to this al most universal rule. In them there is no gripe, no nausea, no sickness of any kind; nay, they are absolutely very pleasant to the taste, and rest as quietly on the stomach as so many confits of green peas, even when their operations are as sudden and effective, as if they were as disagreeable and as sickening as an old fashioned bolus. Thus the man who uses Peters' Pills, and where is the man that does not use them 1 expels headaches, fevers, blue devils, blotches, pimples, &c. &c. and makes his blood course as limpid and as gently through his veins as a mountain rivulet, without having put himself to any more inconvenience in taking the medicine than he would have done in swallowing so many black currants. Should ladies take Dr. Peters' Pills 1 Doubt lessly they should, for they not only assure them of health, complacency of spirits, and every bod ily comfort, but through their miraculous agency in the purification of the biood, speedily remove every thing pertaining to harshness, pimples, or casual scurvy, from the flesh, animates the eye, and gives an elasticity and a vigor to the limbs, and the general carriage ; and hence, when you see a lady with a cheek of velvet softness, a pure lily and carnation complexion, and an easy & grace ful bearing, the general inference to be drawn is, that she is her own physician, and very particular in the choice of her medicine ; and the especial one, that she is a patron of Peters' Pills. Leaving health out of the question, should poets, novelists, editors, machinists, and men of genius and science in general, patronise Peters' Pills ? "Unquestionably, for the vigor which they impart to the frame, exercises a most wholesome influ ence upon the intellect : and the writer of this feels justified in saying, that any person about to carry out an idea, whether of composition or in vention, will have a more lucid understanding of his subject, and think better and more to the point on it, after he has vivified his system by a dose of from one to four of Peters' pills- Persons in bu siness, merchants, store keepers, clerks, specula tors, &c. will derive great advantage from them on the same principle; for if the mind is not buoy ant, no man can attend to the usual pursuits of life with due perspicuity, judgment, and pleasure and there is nothing in the world, at least that has been ever discovered, so efficient in brightening the faculties, and freeing them from participating in the languor, decay, and imperfectibilty of their mortal abode as Dr. Peters' pills. To what may be attributed these singular and wonderful effects ? Why, to their mysterious and inevitable action upon the chyle, and that particu lar region of the system whence the living fluid is generated ; for thus they do not only purify the blood, but create pure blood, the issue of which is healthy veins, arteries, and other functions, unob scured vision, firm and pulpy flesh, smooth and clear skin, and the consequent buoyancy of heart, feeling, and action. In short, whether we take them as a matter of health, business, feeling, or personal appearance, there is none of us should leave our houses without a regular supply of Pe ters' Pills More than six millions of boxes of these cele brated pills have been sold in the United States, Canada's, Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies, since January 1835. The certificates that have been presented to the proprietor, exceed 20,000, upwards of 500 of which are from regulabprac- tising physicians who are the most competent judges of their merits. TESTIMONIALS. OPINIONS OF THE REGULAR FACULTY. The following are but a few taken at random, from a pile of complimentary epistles forwarded to Dr. Peters by regular physicians, touching the efficacy of his pills. He feels proud and grate ful in being able to lay such documents before the public. New Orleans, April 24, 1837 Dear Sir As an old classmate of yonrs in Yale college, 1 take the liberty of opening a correspon dence. I learn that you are makinjr a fortune by the sale of your pills, which I trust is the case as I am ful ly aware that through them you are confeiring a great blessing on the public I mvself am among those who have been pecul iarly benefited by their use. Since my arrival here I had been subject to severe bilious attacks, which had nearly brought me to the grave, -but (and I acknowledge it with gratitude,) a few box es of your pills have completely restored mo. I would add that their effect upon Sick Headache and sour stomach is almost miraculous. With sentiments of esteem, . AT. SHEPERD, M. D. Clarkcsvillc, MeckUnberg Co., Va., Feb. 7, 1837. Dear Sir. I embrace this opportunity of ex pressing to you my pleasure at the unrivalled suc cess of youi pills in this section of the country. It is the general fault cf those who vend patent medicines to say too much in their favor ; but in regard to your pills I am firmly persuaded that they deserve far more praise than you seem in clined to give them. Six months ago they were scarcely known here, and yet at present there is no other medicine that can compare with them' in popularity. In Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, de rangement of the Biliary organs, and obstinate constipation of the bowels, 1 know of no aperient more prompt and efficacious; and I have had con siderable experience in all these complaints 1 would add that their mildness anil certainty of action render them a safe and efficient purgative for weekly individuals; and that they may be giv en at all times without apprehension oi' any of those injurious consequences which so frequently attend the application of calomel, or blue pill. Oil the whole I consider your Vegetable Pills an in valuable discovery. Very respectfully, S. II HARRIS, M. D. Charlotte, N. C, January 1, 1837 Dear Sir I have made frequent use of your pills in the incipient stage of Bilious 1 ever, and obstinate constipation of the bowels; also in the enlargement of the Spleen, Chronic Diseases of the Liver, Sick Headache, General Debility, and in all cases have found them to be very effective. . D. BOYD, M. D. MccMcnberg Co., Va., February 7. 1837. Having used Dr. Peters' Pills in my practice for the last twelve months, 1 take pleasure in giv ing my testimony of their good effects in cases of Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Bilious Fevers, and other diseases, produced by inactivity of the liver. They arc a safe and mild aperient, being the best article of the kind I have ever used. GEORGE C. SCOTT, M. D. Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williains, of Bur lington, Vt. July 9, 1837. "I cordially recommend Peters' Pills as a mild ly effective, and in no case dangerous family me dicine. They are peculiarly influential in cos tiveness and all the usual diseases of the digestive organs." Extract of a letter from Dr Edward Smitu of Mon treal, U. C. September, 29, 183G " I never knew a single patent medicine that I could put the slightest confidence in but Dr Peters' Vegetable pills, which are really a valuable dis covery. I have no hesitation in having it known that I use them extensively in my practice, for all complaints, (and they are not a few,) which have their source in the impurity of the blood." Extract of a letter from DrPyc, of Quebec, L. C, March 6, 1837 " For bilious fevers, sick headaches, torpidity of the bowels, and enlargement of the spleen, Dr Pe ters' pills are an excellent medicine." Those who have used these valuable Pills in this State, give them the preference to all other kind. Prepared by Joseph Priestly Peters, M.

Stroudsburg, October 23, 1840. Harrison's Spcciiic Ointment. The great celebrity of this unrivalled Composi tion especially in the Northern Slates leaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its favor; for it has been generally conceded to it, that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for external complaints that has ever been discov ered. Indeed the speed and certainty of its oper ations have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores, chilblains, white swel lings, biles, piles, spider and snake biles &c immediately yield to its apparantly super human influence. Thus if properly applied it will remove an inveterate, corn or break and heal a bile in five days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks ; and the most desperate cases ol white swelling that can be imagined, have been destroyed bv it m less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its efficacy is truly surprising; and even in the bite of a rabid dog, for if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from pervading the system. It is like wise greatly superior to any medicine neretofore discovered for the chafed backs and limbs of horses for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips, and in short for every external bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has received at least a thousand certificates and other documents, in lavor of his " Specific Ointment" upwards a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Med ical Faculty ; and in selecting from this pile the following samples, he was governed more by their brevity, than their contents," as they all breath the same spirit of eulogy and satisfaction.

To Dr. Harrison, Dear Sir, I write to con gratulatc you on the extraordinary virtue of yonr 4 opeciftc Ointment, m tho curing of burns. little boy of mine, 4 years old, loll against the fire-place thre weeks since, when his clothes bc- hncaue ignited, and ho was instantly envelope' in iianu's. Alter some dit.iruiiv tnc lire was ex tinguished, but not before the poor little fellow's lower extremities were almost covered with a con tinual blister. Having much faith in your oint ment, I immediately purchased throo boxes, which I applied unsparingly, according to your direc tions in such cases ; and it is with great pleasure and gratitude, that I am able to inform you that it allayed the pain m a lew hours ; and m ten days had effected a completo cure. I need scarcely add that it ought to be in tho possession of ovc ry family, as there is no telling when such acci dents may occur. Yours respectfully, H. M. SHEPHARD.
