HUNTYCODON 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 seemed 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 a
time. I could do no business for the last ten
years, nor had I a single good night's sleep for
the last five years. I never could fiudany 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
short time and to this duy. 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 land will be with
out it when they once know its use.

HUNTINGDON, March 11, 1850.
I do hereby certify to the following facts :
That I have suffered for five years past with
pain in my back, spine and kidnies, and never
received any relief but by bleeding, for a few
days only. Last November 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 can freely recommend it, 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. Cours.
LemisTowN, 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 inLewistown.

1848, with a heavy cold, producing incessant
coughing, accompanied with acute pain in the
- right aide, pains in the back, under the right
r shoulder, having heavy night sweats,high fevers
&c., which made me so nervous and restless as
to produca utter prostration. AII theseaffliciions
• increased with such violence, that on tho 4th of
January teat I sent fur my family physician. He
' attended me faithfully, and prescribed every thing
that medical skill could suggest, but without ef
, fect. I found myself gradually growing wan.,
and my hopes of recovery leavening as my dis
ease increased. My cough became distressing ;
my pains severe; and, extremely debilitated, I
lost all ambition in. life, and gave up to a melon
; choly depression. My physician examined ine,
and informed me I had an absese on the upper
part of my liver and lower part alone of toy lungs.
Notwithstanding all thisskill, I grew worse, but
with that tenacity with which we all cling to life,
I concluded to have nothing undone, and called
in a consulting physician, who fully concurred
with my own, and pronounced my case an ex
tremely critical one. He thought I was in im
minent danger--saying my disease "tvas one thu
is seldom if ever cured." All this time I was en
during aulieringit that made life burdensome; ex
periencing great pain in coughing; expectora
tine from a pint to a quart of naureous matter
every 24 hours, and gradually sinking under the
weakning progress of my ibseese. At this stage
of my Line., my friends in Hi istol suggested
the use of Schneck's Pulmonic Syrup but know
ing the many expedients resorted to fur the pur
pose of draining money from the afflicted, I hes
itated. My friends, however, insisting, I was
prevailed upon to try its virtues. I commenced
taking the Syrup about the first of March, and
used several bottles before I had any confidence
in it. I then began to experience a change for
the better, and continued it till I had consumed
ten bottles, when I was so far relieved as to lie
able to visit Dr. Schneck in Philadelphia. He
examined me, and pronounced my right lung af
fected, but in a healing condition. lie recom
mended the further use of the Syrup, which I
continued till I coneumed 15 bottles, and found
myself once more restored to health. I will fur
they add,that the consulting physician, seeingthe
action of the medicine, fully approved its use
To give the reader some idea of the severity
of my catie,and the rapid cure affected by the
Syrup, I will state that my usual weight in
health was 177 pounds, which was finally re
duced by my sufierings to but 121 pound. Yet,
on the first of this month, (September,) I weigh
ed 174 pounds, thus gaining in a few months 53
pounds, and within three pounds of my heaviest
weight. It is not in my power to convey, in the
short space of this certificate, the convincing
proofs of my remarkable cure, or the particulars
of the aoniaing afflictions through which 1 have
passed ; but to those who will take the trouble to
call on me, at Bristol, opposite Pratt's hotel, I
alien take pleasure in detailing every particular.
Inconclusion, I deem it my duty to urge upon
every person who may have the premonitory
symptoms of this fetal disease, not to delay one
hour, hut to call upon Dr Schneck immediately-
His skill in the treatment of this complaint, and
prompt detection of diseased parts of the lungs
by means of leis Stethescope, added to my own
miracu'ous cure, fully satisfiesme, that had I car
eer submitted myself to his care, I should have
weeped much suffering; but restrained by doubts
and suspicion, which make us all naturally skep.
tical in regard to the virtues of a medicine when
firet introduced. I resisted the iinportunities of
my friends till almost too late ; and yielded only
as a last resort, resolved to" kill or cure." 'l'o
hose afflicted es 1 have been, again let me any,
hesitate no longer, my own case is presented to
you as convincing evidence, that when all else
fails your last hope is in Dr, Schneek's Pulmonic
Syrup. I have also for the eatisfaatinn of those

MARRIAGE :
WHY SO OFTEN UNHAPPY.
THE CAUSES AND THE REMEDY!
MANY and many a wife endures years of bodily
suffering and of mental anguish, prostrate and help
lea., embittering her life, that of her husband, and
hazarding the future welfare of her children, arising
from causes which, if known, would have spared the
suffering, the anguish to the wife, and to the hus
band embarravrments and pecuniary difficulties hav
ing their origin in the mind being weighed down and
harassed in consequence of the sickness of the com
panion of his bosom.
How important that the causes should be known
to every wife, to every husband, that the dreadful
and harrowing consequences to the health and hap
piness of both may be avoided I Life is toe short and
health too precious to admit any portion of the one to
be spent without the full enjoyment of the other.
The timely possession of a little work entitled as
follows has been the means of saving the health and ,
the life of thousands, as over

Extract of a Letter front a Gentleman in Dayton, 0.
" DAYTON, May 1, 1847.
"Da. A. M. MAURIC.U—My Dear Sir: The
Married Woman's Private Medical Companion,' for
which I enclosed one dollar to your address, came
safely to bend. I would not have troubled you wills
these few lines, but that I am impelled by a sense
of gratitude, fur myself and wife, to give utterance
to our sincere and heartfelt emotions.
"My wife has been, perceptibly sinking for corns
three years or more, In consequence of her great an
guish and suffering some months before and during
confinement; every wieceesive one more and more
debilitated end penetrated her, putting her life in im.
minent danger, and which was, on the last °ceasing,
despaired of. I supposed that this state of things was
inevitable, and resigned myself to meet the worst.
At this time (now about two months) I heard- your
book highly spoken of, as containing some matters
reaching my case. On its receipt and perusal, I can
not express to you the relief it afforded my &grimed
mind and the joy its pegos imparted to my wife, on
learning that the great discovery of M. M. Deco
meaox provided a remedy. It opened a prospect to
me which I little conceived was possible. No pecu
niary consideration can ever repay the obligations I
am under to you for having been the means of im
parting to us the matters contained in ' The Married
Woman's Private Medical Companion.' But for
this, ere another year would have passed over my
head, in all human probability my wife would have
been in her grave, and my children left motherless."
