GREAT
Improvement in Dagnerreotypeing !
VAN LOAN & CO., No. 118, Chesnut street,
Philadelphia, have, by recent discoveries in
their art, enabled themselves to take pictures at
all times, with great certainty—as well in stormy
an clear weather—which are justly pronounced by
artists and scietitic men, UNUIVALLED, for depth of
tone and softness of light and shade. By working
themselves, they not only produce pictures which
are GOOD AND CHEAP ! ! but by far the best
and cheapest which can be produced at any other
establishment. Their charge for pictures in hand
some improved cases, range from ONE DOLLAR
to three dollars, depending on the sine of the pic
ture, being scarcely one-half the prices charged at
other establishments, for pictures of equal size—
but of inferior quality. Their GALLERY OF Pon-
TRAITS, consisting of soma hundreds, embraces a
collection of D IS PING Ul SHED AMERICANS
worthy the attention of visitors to their rosins,
which are OPEN AT ALL TIMES.
The collection winch they had deposited in the
exhibition of the Franklin Institute, was constant
ly surrounded by dense crowds of admirers, who
were loud in their praise of the artists' skill.
To guard against every possibility of mistake,
they guarantee every picture to be of the best ma
terials, and unless it is entirely satisfactory to the
customer, SO CIfARGE IS MADE.
65 - When visiting the city call nt their rooms,
whether you wish a Daguerreotype or not. The
admission is free, and you will he pleased with
your visit. Don't forget the number, 118 Chesnut

That I have suffered for five years past with

received any relief but by bleeding, for a few

in a short time. From what I have seen and

SICKLY AND UNHAPPY WIVES.

" Dimon, May 1, 1847.
"DR. A. M. MAURICEAU—My Dear Sir: ' The
Married Woman's Private Medical Companion.' for
which I enclosed one dollar to your address, came
safely to hand. I would not have troubled you with
these few lines, but that I am impelled by a soma
of gratitude, fur myself and wife, to give utterance
to our sincere and heartfelt emotion..
"My wife has been perceptibly sinking far some
three years or more, in consequence of her great an
guish and suffering some months before and during
confinement; every successive one more and more
debilitated and prostrated her, putting her life iu im
minent danger, and which was, on the last occasion,
despnired o 1 I supposed that this state of things was
inevitable, and resigned myself to meet the worst.
At thip time (now about two month.) I beard your
book highly spoken of. as containing some matter.
reaching my case. On its receipt and permd, I cen
not express to you the relief it ahrtled my distressed
mind and the my its pages imparted to any wife, on
Learning that the great discovery of M. M. Des.
meaux 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 yen for having-been the means of im
parting to as the matters contained in ' The Married
Woman's Private Medical Companion.' Hat for
this, ere another year would have passed over my
heed, in all human probability my wife would have
been in her grave, and my children left motherlees."

Competence and Health.

"MY DEAR Sin I know you will have ilia kind.

while I acknowledge (in behalf of myself and wife ,
the obligations we feel onreelves ander to yen in hat
lag made known certain matters, contained in your
most invaluable ' Mewled Woman's Private Medical
Companion.' It line been worth its weight in gold
to me. If I express myself rather warmly, you will
see that I can not do so too warmly, when I inform
yen of the extent to which I have, through it, been
benefited. I will state my situation when I obtained
your book through the merest curiosity I look upon
li NA one of the Most Ilirtnnete events of my life. I
bad been married some ten years, end was the father
of seven children. I was long straggling unceasingly
to the end that I might gain a moderate competency,
but the results of my uttnnet exertions nt the end left
me about where I wee at the beginning of each year:
and that only, with the most stinted economv, stiff.
cing with barely the necessaries of life. Finally, this
constant effort was beginning to have its effect upon
my health t I felt less capable to endure its continu
ance, while, I felt the necessity of perseverance.
" This constant, unceasing struggle on one part was
imperative, in consequence of the prostrated condi•
lion arty wife (with occasional intermiasion) for six
yearn, touch of the time confined to her bed, and of
course incapable of taking the charge and manage
ment of household affairs. He• condition arose from
causes of which I was ignorant. Olt! whet would
I have given had I the six years to live over again !
What would my wife have given to have been spared
the long days and still longer nights prostrate on a
bed of ideltness I— all of which would have been
avoided, hail I then seen a copy of Tot: MARRIED

"Dn. A. M. MAURICEALT : lied I known of the im
portant matters treated of in The Married Woman's
Private Medical Companion' some years ago. how
much misery I might have escaped I I have suffered
years from causes which you point out in your book,
without knowing what to do. I obtained n copy, and
found my cane treated of. I trust every female will
avail herself of the information contained in its pages."
Letters am daily received of this character, untie
eessmy to present.
To those vet unmarried, but contemplating mar
riage, or perhaps hesitating as e 0 the propriety of
incurring the responsibilities attendant upon it, the
importance of being possessed of tno revelations con
tubed in these pages, so intimately involving their
future happiness, can not be appreciated.
It is, of course, impracticable to convey more fully
the various subjects treated of, as they aro of a na
ture strictly intended for the marri&d, or those eon•
templating marriage; neither is itecessarv, since
it is every one's duty to become possessed of knowb
edge whereby the sufferings to which a wifo, a moth•
