-,pr. Totnnsend Dear Sir : I have suffered terribly for nine
years with .the Rheumatism ; considerable of the time 1 could

of jppur Sarsaparilla, and they have done me more than

indeed, I am entirely relieved. You are at liberty to use

Vital Fit!! Fits!!!
Dr.Townend, not having tested his Sarsaparilla in cases
of Fits, of course, never rccoameuded it, and was surprised
loS-ccclve' the following from an intelligent and respectable
Farmer in Vestchestcr County;
Fordham, August 13, 1847.
Dr. Townscnd Dear Sin I have a little prU seven years
of age. who has been several years afflicted with Fits ; we
tried almost everything for her, but without success ; at last,
although we could find no recommendation in your circulars
for cases like hers, we thought, as she was in very delicate
health, we would give her some of your Sarsaparilla. and are
very glad we did, for it not only restored her strength, but she
has had no return of the Fits, to our great pleasure and sur
prise. She is fart becoming rugged and health v. for which wo
Icel grateful. Yours, respectfully,
JOHN BUTLR, Jr.

Dr. Townend's Sarsaparijla is a sovereign and speedy cure
forIncipient Consumption, Barrenness, Prolapsus Uteri, or
Falling of the Womb. Costivencss, Piles, Lcucorrhcea, or
Whites, obstructed or difficult Menstruation, Incontinence of
Urine, or involuntary discharge thereof, and for the genera

of inherent canto or causes, produced, by irregularity, illness
or accident. Nothing can be more surprising than its in
vieoraifug effects oiTthc human frame. Persons all weakness
and latitude, from taking it, atencc become robust and full
of energy under its influence.Jt" immediately counteracts
the nervelesstiess of the female frame, which is the great cause
of Barrenness. It will not be expected of us, in cases of"so
delicate a nature, to exhibit certificates of cures performed,
hat we can assure the afflicted, that hundreds of cases have
b-en reported to us. Thousands of cases where families have
bceu without children, after using a few bottles of this invalua
ble Medicine, have been blessed with fine, health offspring.
Great Blessing to Mothers and Children.
It is the safest and most effectual medicine for purifying the
ystem. and relieving the sufferings attendant upon child-
iwrth ever discovered. It strengthens both the mother and
the child, prevents pain and disease, increases and enriches
the food ; those who have, used it, think it is indispcusa
blc. It 5s birhlv useful both before and after confinement,
, i 1 1 1 .1 .
as it prevents diseases niiennani upon cnuu-uinn in iOt
menus. Piles, .Cramps Swellinr of the Feet, Despondency,
'rtl.im. V'omi ir;. Pain in the Back and Loins. False Painx.
Hcniotrhare, and in regulating the secretions and equalizing
the circulation, it has no equal. The great beauty of this
medicine is, it is always yafe, and the most delicate use it
most .successfully, very few cases require any other medi
cine, in some a Utile Castor Oil, or Magnesia is usefnl. Ex
ercise In the open air, and light food with this medicine, will
always secure a safe and easy confinement.
IJeauty and Health.
Cosmetics, Chalk, and a variety of preparations generally
iu use, when applied to the face, very soon spoil it ofitr
beauty. The close the pores of the skin,' and check the circu
lation, which, when natur is not thwarted by disease oj
powder, or the skin inflamed by the alkalies used in soaps,
be'auiifies its own production in the "human face Divine,"
as well as -in the garden of rich and de.licately tinted varie
rated "fliiwera. A free, active and healthy circulation of the
fluids, or the coursing of the pure, rich blood, to the extremi
ties, is that which paints the countenance in the roost exqui
site beauty. Jt is that which imparts the indescribable shades
and flashes of loveliness that all admire, but none can de
scribe. J'his beauty is the offspring of nature not of powder
or soap. If there is not a free and healthy circulation, thero
is no beaut'. If the lady is fair as driven snow, if she paints,
and use cosmetics, and the blood is thick, cold aud impure,
she is not heiutifuL If she "be brown or yellow, and there
is pure and active blood, it gives a rich bloom to the cheeks,
and a brilliancy to their eyes that is fascinating.
This is why the southern, and especially the Spanish ladies,
are so much admired. Ladies in the north, who take but
little exercise, or are confined in close rooms, or have spoiled
their complexion by the application of deleterious mixtures,
if they wish to regain elasticity of step, buoyant spirits, spark
ling eyes and beautiful complexion, they should use Dr.
Townsend's Sarsaparilla. Thousands who have tried it, are
more than satisfied, are delighted. Ladies' of every station
crowd our office daily.
The Iter. John Scgcr
Of Jersey City, an old and highly respectable clergyman
of the Baptist -denpmination, handed in the following certifi
cate at Dr. Townsend's office. It speaks for itself.
Dr. Towns end Dear Sir: lam constrained togivej'ou a
statement of the benefit 1 derived from using your Sarsapa
rilla, believing, by so doing, I shall render a benefit to those
who are suffering as I have been. I was reduced for many
months by tho Dyspepsia, so much that it was with much dif
fic'dty for mo to walk or keep about. I had also a tetter,
which covered the most part of my head which was ex
tremely troublesome and jsore ; it got to be almost a scab. J
used quite a number of remedies for both the complaints, but
received little or no benefit, until I took your Sarsaparilla,
which, through the kindness of Providence, has restored me
to more than my usual health, as I am now enjoying better
than X have for a number of years. I am now CO years of
age. I believe it to be an invaluable medicine, and recom
mend it to my numerous acquaintances, which is very large,
as I have been a minister a great many years. J -hope this
hasty sketch may be as much benefit to you as your medicine
has to me. JOHN SEGER, Jersey City

There was never, perhaps, a medicine brought
before the public, that has in so short a time won
such a reputation as M'ALLISTER'S ALL-
HEALING OR WORLD-SALVE. Almost eve
ry person that has made trial of it speaks warmly
in its praise. One has been cured by it, of the
most painful Rheumatism, another of the Piles, a
third of a troublesome pain in the limbs, &c, &c.
If it does not give immediate relief, in every case,
it can do no injury, being applied outwardly. As
another evidence of the wonderful healing power
possessed by ihis salve, we subjoin the following
certificate, from a respectable citizen of Maiden-
creek township in this county :
Maidencreek, Berks Co., March 30, 18"7.
Messrs. Ritter & Co. I desire to inform you
that I was entirely cured of a severe pain in the
back, by the use of iM'Allisters All-Healing Salve,
which I purhhased from you. I suffered with it
for about 20 years, and at night was unable to
sleep. During that time I tried various remedies,
which were prescribed for me by physicians and
other persons, without receiving any relief, and
at last made trial of this Salve, with a result fa
vorable beyond expectation. I am now .entirely
free from the. pain, and enjoy at night a peaceful
and sweet sleep. I have also used the Salve
since for other complaints, with similar happy re
sults. Your friend,
JOHN HOLDINBACH.

RAISING BLOOD AND CONSUMPTION
Mr. Milne, Builder, in Brookfyn, was at
tacked with raising blood, followed by a cough,
pain in the side, and all the usual symptoms of
consumption. He employed two of the best
physiciaus ; they did him no good, and told
him he could not live.
Hearing of the wonderful cures performed
by Sherman's Balsam, he sent at 10 o'clock at
night to Mrs. Hayes, 136 Fulton street, and
got a bottle ; it operated like a charm, stopped
the bleeding and cough! Before he had taken-
one bottle he was able to be about his work.
It had saved his life. His daughter, residing
at 127 Myrtle Avenue, can attest it.
Miss Ann Maston, of Williamsburg, living
in Tenth, near South Fourth-street, says That
she had been troubled with a hacking cough,
and pain in the chest, for a long time, which
at last become so bad that ahe was obliged to
give up her ichool for more than a year. She
then commenced taking the All-Healing Bal
sam which soon alleviated her symptoms.
She is now fast recovering, and has resumed
her laborious occupation as a teacher,

These Medicines have now been before the
public fora penod of FIFTEEN" YEARS, and
- daring that time: have maintained a high charac
ter in almost every part of the globe for their ex
traordinary and immediate power of restoring per
feot health to persons suffering under nearly every
kind of disease to which the human frame is liable.-
IN JffAHY THOUSAOTS
1 of certificated instances, they have even rescued
sufferers ,from the very verge of an untimely
grave, after all the deceptive nostrums of the day.
had utterly failed ; and to many thousands they
have permanently secured that uniform enjoy
ment'of health, without which life itself is. but
a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has their
efficacy invariably and infallibly proved, (hat it
has appeared scarcely less than miraculous to
those who were acquainted with the beautifully
philosophical principles upon which they are com
pounded, and upon which they consequently act.
It was to their manifest and sensible action m
purifying the springs and channels of life, and en
duing them with renewed tone and vigor, that
they were indebted for their nnme.
Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries which
boast of vegetable ingredients, the JJFE MEDI
CINES are purely and solely vegetable; and
contain neither Mercury, nor Antimony, nor
Arsenic nor nnv ot,ier minerul in nnv form
whatever. They are entirely composed of extracts-from
rare and powerful plants, the virtues
. of which, though long known to several Indian
tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmaceu
tical chemists, are altogether unknown to the
ignorant pretenders to medical science ; and were
never before administered in so happily efficacious
a combination.
The first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the stomach and bowels the various impuri
ties and crudities constantly settling round them ;
and to remove the hardened foeces which collect
in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habitual
Costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sudden
Diarrhoea with its imminent dangers. This fact
is well-known to all regular anatomists who ex
amine the human bowels after death 5 and hence
the prejudice of these well-informed men against
the quack medicines of the age. The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDI
CINES "9 to cleanse the kidneys and the blad
der ; and, by this means, the liver and lungs,
the healthful action of which entirely depends
upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The
blood, which takes its red color from the agency
of the liver and Jungs, before it passes into the
heart, being thus purified by them, and nourished
by food coming from a clean stomach, courses
freely through the veins, renews every part of
the system, and triumphantly mounts the ban
ner of .health in the blooming cheek.
The following are among the distressing va
riety of human diseases in which the VEGE
TABLE LIFE MEDICINES are well known
to be infallible.
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomachs, and creating a flow of
pure healthy bile, instead of the stale and acrid
kind ; Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, Heart
burn, Headache, Restlessness, Ill-Temper,
Anxietv, Languor, and Melancholy, which
are the general symptoms of Dj'spepsia, will
vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure,
Costiveness, by cleansing the whole length
of the intestines with a solvent process, and
without violence ; all violent purges leave the
bowels costive within two days.
Diarrhoea and Cholera., by removing the
sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints aro
occasioned, and by promoting the lubricative se
retion of the mucous membrane.
Fevers t" all kinds, by restoring the blood to a
regular circulation, through the process of perspi
ration in such cases, and the thorough solution of
all intestinal obstruction in others.
The Life Medicines have been known to
cure BJieumatism permanently in three weeks,
and Gout in half that time, by removing local
inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of
the joints.
Dropsies of all kinds, by freeing and strength
ening the kidneys and bladder : they operate most
delightfully on these important organs, and hence
have ever been found a certain remedy for the
worst cases of Gravel.
Also "Worms, by dislodging from the turnings
of the bowels the slimy matter to which these
creatures adhere.
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving the
air-vessels of the lungs from the mucous which
even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not
removed, becomes hardened, and produces these
dreadful diseases.
Scurvy, Ulcers, and Inveterate Sores, by
the perfect purity which these UFE MEDI
CINES g've to the blood, and alt the humors.

The use of these Pills for a very short time
will effect an entire cure of Salt Kheum, and a
striking improvement in the clearness of the skin.

PILES. As a remedy for this most distressing
and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES deserve a distinct and emphatic
recommendation. It is well-known to hundreds
in this city, that the former proprietor of these
valuablo Medicines was himself afflicted with this
compainl for upwards of thirty-five years ; and
that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed
within the whole compass of the Materia Medica.
He hoever at length tried the Medicine which
is now offered to the public, and he was cured iu
a very short time, after his recovery had been pro-".
, nounced not only improbable, but absolutely im
possible, by any human means.
FEVER AND AGUE.
For this .scourge of the western country these
Medicines will be found a safe, speedy, and cer
tain remedy. Other medicines leave the system
subject to a return of the disease a cure by these
medicines is permanent TRY THEM, BE
SATISFIED, AND BE CURED.
Bilious Fevers and Liver Complaints.
General Debility, Loss or Appetite, anu
Diseases of Females these medicines have been
used with tho most beneficial results in cases of
this description: Kino's Evil and Scrofula, in
its worst forms, yields to the .mild yet powerful
action of these remarkable Medicines. Night
Sweats, Nervous Debility, Nervous Com
plaints of all kinds, Palpitation of the Heart,
Painter'8 Colic, are speedily cured.
MEBCUEIAL DISEASES. .
Persons whose constitutions havo become im
paired by tho injudicious use of Mercury, will
find these Medicines a perfect cure, as they never
fail to eradicato from, the Bystem all the. effects of
Mercury infinitely sooner than the most powerful
preparations of Sarsaparilla. A single trial will
place them beyond tho reach of competition, in
the estimation of every patient.

Incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. P Townsend', it improves with age, and
never changes, but for the bolter; because it is prepared en scien

Chemistry, and the latest discoveries of the art. have all been
Drough, nto requisition, in the mannFtrtnre of the Old Dr's
3arsapar.lla. TheSariapariila root, itis well known to medical
men. contains many medicinal properties, and Mime properties
which are inert or useless, and others, which if retained in pro
paring it for use, produce fersientiilion and acid, which Is in
jurious to the system, rftime of the properties of Sarsaparilla
ire so volatile, that they cntireH evaporate and are lot in the
preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific prucess
known only to those experienced in itsmanulnrtti-e. Moreover,
these volatile principles, which fly offin vapur.-oras an exhala
