feature, are the wonderful exploits of the wino
RIDER, EATON STONE. This extraordinary
equestrian of whose skill and daring volumes

appears in two distinct acts of horsemanship in
neither of which does he use saddle or bridle on
his superb steeds, though they are both as wild
and apparently untameable as when first lassoed
by him on the Pampers of South America.—
Their leaps are truly terrific, and it is impossi

he watches the motions of horse and rider, which
are in perfect unison, and which convey to the
mind a strong picture of the Caxracas of Ilea

Read the following certificate :
HuNTlsoncs, March 11, 1850.
For the benefit of sufferers like me and oth
ers, I do freely declare the following facts
have suffered more or less for twenty years with
the most desperate Rheumatism, and also for 18
years at times with most desperate pain in the
stomach, which at times deemed to expand as if
it would burst; also for many years I was ter•
ribly troubled with cramps in my legs— , .indeed
I can't describe all my sufferings for so long
time. I could do no business for the last ten
years, nor had i a single good night's Sleep far
the last five years. I never could find any relief
worth mentioning, until last November, when I
met with the Extract of American Oil, and to
my no little surprise I got relieved of all in a
alien time and to this day. I respectfully in
vite all who choose to call and see me upon the
matter; such I can tell much more. I can say
it has done wonders on others around me in va
rious complaints. If ever an article was put
out honestly, this is one. I know it sells rap
idly here. No family in the Ininl will be with
out it when they once know its sue.
JOHN BumsAyGn
HUNT INI,DON, March 11, 1850,
I do hereby certify to the following' facts :
That I have suffered for five years past with
pain in my bark, spine and kidnies, and never
received any relief but by bleeding, for a few
days only. Last Novernbei I got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, I used it inward
ly, and to my surprise it removed the complaint
in a short time. From what I have seen and
heard of its wondrous effects upon others in des
perate cases, I coo freely recommend i', and be
lieve it to be worth all the humbugs in the land,
and do believe it will do all for what it is so
highly recommended. C. Caere.
LimisTowN, March 1850
I never before gave a certificate, but this I
give with a clear conscience for the benefit of
sufferers like myself. I suffered with the Ery.
sipelas or St. Antony's Fire, mixed with Tet
ter, so pronounced by my doctor, for 12 years.
The suffering I endured is beyond description.
At times all my hair came off my head, During
this time I had no relief for more than a few
days at a time. Last October 1 got a bottle of
the Extract of American Oil, used it inwardly
and outwardly, and to my great astonishment
and my neighbors, I got clear of it in a short
time, and to this time I have noticed its won
drous effects on other desperate complaints. I
do assure my friends and the public that it is
indeed a wonderful thing for many complaints.
I invite all whochoose to visit me in Lewistown.
My maiden name wns Nancy Magarky, now
Widow NANCY VINES.
