SHEflMANS m &SSAUJ; SIX YEARS AGO the chPdren began to cry for Sherman's Lozenges. The noise was not so loud at that time, but it lias kept increasing ever since, and now has become so great that the mouths of the little ones can scarce be stopped. Dr. Sherman sympathises with the little sufferers, and very much regrets that any of them should be disappointed. Know ing the vast benefit which has been conferred upon the community by the introduction of his infallible Worm Lozenges, he has entered into arrangements for enlarging his Manufactory, by means of which he thinks he will be able to supply the demand. And the same pains and care will be taken, that these celebrated Lozenges be made as they have always been, in order that those who depend upon them may not be disappointed in their hopes. He knew when hev commenced the manufacture of the Worm Lo zenges, that they would supercede the use of eve ry qther vermifuge, as the Lozenge is very plcas antho the taste, speedy in its effects, as well as certain, and the quantity required to effect a per- id cure, is very small. I hese properties m con- n?xion with the fact that they are sold for 25 cents per Box, thus placing them in the reach of the poorest man in the land, has notonlv caused them i tr tnl'o tl.o nlrn nf n'rv ntlmr i-rm" TiifTA ovpr nf. - ' . - . .

By pursuing this course a cure is often effected in 24 hours and the patient about his business. So great is the celebrity of the Lozenges, persons who have used them, am that thousands of d become acquaint ea w,m uieir el,ecls-W1U never witnout tnem Sherman's Poor Man's Plaster has cured more rases of Rheumatism, Pain in the u i. c:j i r'i . T i i ir..i Back, Side and Chest. Lumbago and Weakness than any application that has ever been made. As the celebritv of the Plaster has increased, hun dreds of unprincipled rascals have attempted to counterfeit it, and palm it oil upon the community as the genuine. ID3 Beware of Deception. cQI Remember that the true and genuine Plaster is spread upon reddish paper marie expressly for the purpose, and in every case the signature of Dr, Sherman is printed upon the back of the Plaster, and the whole secured by Copy Right. None others are genuine. Therefore when you want a real good Shermans Poor Man s Plaster, call at the office, 100 Nassau street and you will not be disappointed Remember the number, I0G Nassau St.. where all Dr. Sherman's Lozenges are sold.
