NATURAL PRINCIPLES.
It is written in the Book of Nature and
common sense, that the natural vegetable
productions of every country are, if prop
erly applied, amply sufficient For the cure
of every malady incident to that clime.
WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS
are fotinded upon the principle, that the
human body is subject to but one disease,
viz: corrupt humors, which, when confi
ned to the circulation, give rise to those
disordered motions of the blood called le•
vers; but when lodged in the various parts
of the body, are the cause not only of
every ache or pain we sutler, but every
maGly incident to man.
It should be remembered that Wright's
Indian Vegetable Pills are composed of
roots and herbs, which grow spontaneous
ly on our own soil, and consequently are
so admirably adapted to our constitutions
that, while they cannot possibly injure even
the most delicate, a perseverance in their
use, according to directiims, is absolutely
certain to di fee disease of every name from
the body.
When we wish to restore a swamp or
morass to fertility, do we not drain it of
the superabundant water ? In like man•
ner, if we would restore the body to health
we must cleanse it from impurity.
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills, will
be found peculiarly adapted to carrying,
out this grand purifying, because they ex
pel all corrupt humors in an easy and
natural manner, and while they every day
GIVE EASE AND PLEASURE,
the constitution is restored to such a state
of health and vigor, that disease will find
no abiding place in the body.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS!
As the great popularity of W right's Indi•
an Vegetable Pills, has raised up a host of
counterfeiters the public are cautioned
against impostors, who ire travelling about
the country, selling to the unsuspecting
storekeepers a spurious article for the
above celebrated Pills.
It should be remembered that, all who
sell the genuine medicine are provided
with a certificate of agency, of which the
tollowing is a copy :
This is to certity that the within na
med —is a regular and duly appointed
—Agent for time sale of Wright' Indian
IVegetable Pills, 11l the town of —, in
the State of —, and this certificate, which
is signed by Win. Wright, Vice President
of the North American College of Health,
must also be countei signed by the acting,
Clerk or Agent, from whom said certifi
cates is received.
This certificate of agency will be re
newed every twelve months ; therefore,
if any alteration should be made in the
date, do not purchase.
The public are further informed that all
who receive the above certificate, are also
equired to sigti the following
0:7" PLEDGE..4:O
This is to certify, that the subscriber
by certificate bearing eyen date herewith,
signed with the proper handwriting of
William Wright, Vice President of the
North American College of Health,
been appointed Agent for the sale of
WRIGHT'S INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS,
Or Indian Purgative,
in the town of —, and State of —, to
hold and continue in said agency during
the pleasure of the said William Wright,
and no longar, any thing contained in the
said certificate signed by the said William
Wright, to the contrary thereof notwith•
standing. In consideration whereof, I
hereby covenant and agree to and with
the said W illiatn Wright that I will not
sell, or expose to sale, any medicine bear
kg the above or a similar name during my
said agency, otheg than that which 1 re
ceive from his authorized agent or agents,
under the penalty of five hundred dollars
to be paid by him, as liquidated damages.
of lutes& —hand and seal, the day
for— one thousand eight hundred and
forty
Thus it will be seen that the friends of
the genuine medicine may be perfectly
tree from any apprehension of fraud, as all
agents, who are provided with a certificate
of agency, have invariably
SIGNED THE PLEDGE
not to sell any Indian Vegetable Pills ex
cept those received from the above named
William Wright, or his authorized agents.
Country agents and other, will be on
their guard against travelling imposters,
and remember that all authorized travel
lirg agents are also provided with a certi..
licate of agency as above described, and
that Pills tittered for sale, by those who
cannot show a certificate of agency, are
sure to be counterfeit.
It will be further observed that all genu
ine medicine has the title expressed in full
on the sides of the boxes thus:
Wnictres INDIAN VEGETABLEPILLS.
(Indian Purgative)
Or THE NORTH AMERICA COLLEGE
OF HEALTIL
The patrons of Wright's Indian Vege
table Pills, m ill also bear in mind that the
directions which accompany each box of
Pills, have been seemed by copywright,
and the proper form, viz: tt Eotered ac
cording to the act of Congress, in the year
1840, by William Wright, in the Clerk's
Office, of the District Court of the Gas
tern District of Pennsylvania," will be
found at the bottom of the first page of
said directions.
Thus it will be seen, that a trifling at
tention on the part of the purchaser to the
above particulars, will put an effectual
stop to this wholesale robbery, and drive,
it is hoped, all depredators upon society
to an honest calling.
The following highly respectable store
keepers have been appointed agents

Noah American College of health.

A compound galsamic_preparation of the
Prunus Virffiniana of •Wild Cherry Bark,'
combined with the Extract of Thr, prepa •
red by a chemical process, approved and
recommended by the . most distinguished
physicians, and universally acknowledged
the most valuable medicine ever discovered.
No Quackery ! ! No Deception,
In setting forth the virtues of this truly
great medicine, we have no desire to deceive
those who are laboring under the affliction,
nor do we wish to eulogize it more than it
deserves: Yet we look around and see the
vast amount of suffering and distress occa
sioned by many of the diseases in which this
medicine has proved so highly successful,
we feet that we cannot urge its claims too
strongly, or say too much in its favor.
Various remedies it is true have been of
fered and puffed into notice for the cure of
diseases of the Lungs, and some have no
doubt been found very useful. bnt all that
have yet been discovered, it is admitted by
physicians and all others who have witness
ed its effects, that none have proved as suc
essful as this. Such, indeed, are the
Surprssing Virtues
Of this Balsam, that even in the advanced
stages of Consumption, after all the most
esteemed remedies of physicians have failed
to effect any change, the use of this medi
cine has been productive of the most aston
ishing relief, and actually effected cures
after All hopes of recovery had been dis
paired of.
In the first stage of the disease, termed
Catarrhal Consumption ' originating from
neglected COLDS, it has been used with un
deviating success, and hundreds acknowl
edge they owe the restoration of their health
to this invaluable medicine alone, in that
form of consumption so prevalent amongst
delicate young females, commonly termed
debility, or
" Going into a Decline,"
A. complaint with which thousands are lin
gering. it has also proved highly successful,
and not only possesses the power• of checking
the progress of this alarming complaint, but
also strengthens and invigorates the system
more effet tually than any medicines we have
ever possessed.
Besides its suprising efficacy in consump
tion, it is equally efficacious in Liver Com
plaint, Asthma, Bronchitis, and all affec
tions of the Lungs, and has cured many of
the mist obstinate cases, •titer• every other
remedy had failed. Q"}' For particulars see
Dr. Wistor's treaties on consumption, to be
had of the agents.
WHILE LIFE REMAINS WE STILL HAVE
SOME HOPE.
A SURPRISING CURE.---Among the many
singular cures which this medicine has ef
fected, there is perhaps none 111 which its
powers are so fully shown as in the case of
Mrs. Austin.
This lady has been consumptive for seve
ral years, and during the greater part of this
time had received the best medical attention,
and tried all the most valuable remedies, yet
• nothing could be found to arrest its progress.
She became subject to violent fits of cough
ing, expectorated I arge quantities of matter
occasionally tinged with blood, and step by
step this fearful disease continued its
course, until all hopes of a recovery was des
paired of. While in this distressing situa
tion, lingering upon the very verge of the
grave, she commenced the use of this Bal
sam, which, to use her own expressien, op
perated almost like a charm. In a few (lays
she expectorated freely, the cough Nes gra
dually suppressed, and every day appeared
to add fresh vigor to her looks, and now, in
the place of that emaciated form withering
to decay. she is seen mingling in society, in
better health than she has enjoyed for years.
DISINTERESTED TESTIMONY.---- Having
witnessed the sot prising efficacy of Dr.
Wistar's Balsam of Wild C herry, in the
case of Mrs. Austin, I cheerfully acknowl
edge the above statement t o be true and cor
rect. J. C. WALTERS, M. D.
LIVER COMPLAINT.---MPs. Eliza Thomp
son was afflicted with this complaint for
nearly five years, during which time she was
under the most skilful physicians—had tried.
Mercury, Botanic and Homoepathic reme
dies, and every thing that offered her any
hopes of relief. She had dull, wandering
pains in her side, sometimes in the shoulder
and small of the back, a hacking cough, fre
quent pains in the breast, and had been una
ble to sleep on her right side for three years.
By the use of this Balsam she was cured in a
few weeks, and remains will to this day.
