VALUABLE MEDICINES
From the Laboratory of the Celebrated
Dr. J. S. ROSE, of Philade.
TAR. ROSE'S ALTERATIVE, For the rad
ii ical cure of Scrofula, Diseases of the
Bone, stubborn Ulcers, Liver Complaints, old
Eruptions, Rheumatism, and every Disease
arising from an impure state of the blood.
The great power of this valuable Medicine
being now fully established by the many cures
it has effected of CONSUMPTION, BRON
CHITIS, GLANDULAR and LIVER DIS
EASE, SCB.OFULA, HIP-JOINT affection,
RHEUMATIC, SYPHILITIC, and all impu
rities of the blood, has sufficiently proven to
the public its superior panacea' power above
all nostrums now in use. Price $l.
DR. ROSE'S DYSPEPTIC COMPOUND
Tea Lyme, being the largest gland in the
human body, is more frequently deranged in
its healthy action than any other. The con
sequences of this derangement are first Dys
pepsia, known by costiveness belching up of
wind, sour stomach, and sometimes Diarrhoea
or looseness of the bowels, head-ache, nervous
feelings, cold feet, wakefulness, and variable
appetite, &c. Secondly, if the above symp
toms are allowed to go on long without this
Medicine, (which will always cure or remove
them,) then follows debility of the lunge and
predisposition to consnmption.
Dr. Rose has been called on by over Twins
THOUSAND cases within the last few years, and
many of them had tried the various bitter com
pounds to their delusion; fortunately the most
were in time and were soon cured by the above
compound, which contains no mercury, and
does not iujure, but always improves the con
stitution, as thousands can testify. Price 50
cents.
DR. ROSE'S CARMINITIVEBALSAM
. ..-......
This beautiful preparation has been use d by
me in a full practice of thirty years in the city
of Philadelphia, and is a never-failing remdy for
cholera-morbus, dysentery, bowel complaint,
flatulency, &c. Price 25 cents.
DR. ROSE'S VEGITA BLE VERMIFUGE.
This compound having been used by mein — a
full practice of twenty-six years, with the most
beneficial results in cases of worms, has so well
established its superiority above most other
worm medicines that the demand has increased
beyond all calculation. All medicines should
be prepared by a physician and chemist. It is
true that many articles are now sold as good
for worms, but it should be remembered that
many are too powerful for the constitution of
young children. Price 25 cents.
DR. ROSE'S FAMILY OR SANITIVE
PILLS.
These pills are confidently recommended for
Dyspepsia, disease of the Liver, Costiveness,
and for the constant use of families, as they are
mild, and certain in their operation, causing no
pain or uneasiness, leaving the bowels perfect
ly free from costiveness. Price 25 cents.
DR. ROSE'S EXPECTORANT, OR COUGH
SYRUP, a certain cure for all diseases of the
lungs, spitting of blood, bronchitis, asthma,
colds, coughs, and consumption. This.syrup
has no equal. Fifty cents and $1 per bottle.
DR. ROSE'S HAIR TONIC,
This invaluable compound for the hair has
been used and highly recommended by the late
a nd truly great Dr. Physic, of Philadelphia.—
Price 50 cents.
DR. ROSE'S CROUP OR HIDE SYRUP.
There has been many remedies compounded
for the cure of Croup or Hives. The disease
Is particularly prevalent among children, and
often fatal ; but as I have never seen a case
terminate fatally or continue long where this
syrup was used, I can recommend it with the
highest confidence. Price 25 cents. See di
rections.
The afflicted are invited to call upon the
Agent, and procure (gratis) one of the Doctor's
pamphlet. giving a detailed account of each
remedy and its application.
These medicines are in high repute, and can
be relied upon as suiting the diseases for which
they are recommended, as they are the result of
an extensive practice for the last thirty years
iu the city of Philadelphia.

GOOD TESTIMONY.
The Lsuisville Courier thus speaks of Ball's iarseparilla:
We bran shown, by Mr. John Bull, proprietor of
that wald-mnowned preparation, "Bull's Fluid Extract of
Sarsaparilla," an iglginal, genuine, and beautiful letter,
addressed to him Ly the accomplished lady of ono of the
most eminent old physicians In the West, giving a detailed
aceount cf our of the most astonishing cures on record, per
forated alone by the use of Bull's Sarsaparilla."
Thie us, excellent and charming lady had long suffered
from prolopsus uteri, liner albus, piles, and chronic diseases
of the stomach and digestive organs, and derangement of
the whole system, attended with distressing cutaneous amp•
sick betehtche, and violent attacks of cramp. After
exhausting ell of her husband's skill, and applying to many
celebrated medical gentlemen, both at home and abroad,
and alce using great quantities of "Townsend's Sarsapa
rilla,' without the slightest relief, she MIA induced to use
"Jelin Bull's Sarsaparilla." And what Was the happy
result/ After the usu of a few battles, a perfitct and won
derful cure--the lady restored to perfect health, and to her
usual flow of spirits.
Sark letter , as the one wo speak of, must afford Mr. Bull
more real gratification, than could the possession of count-
11,3 wealth. And whether he accumulates wealth or not
Ily the Mb. or his truly valuable Metliclne, being its author
to ultov and honor enough; and ho can say to the world,
without fear of contradiction, "I have In my poverty re
lieved more human ettfroring, than did Stephen Uirard yr
lan Jacob Aster with their millions."

than any :m41{14110 I ever UPOLI. I have been free from pain

It 14 11441,4 to prciltice further testimony In favor of this
greet renhafy. It has only to be tried and proved, to con
vince the pouffe of its superior efficacy.
Notice to Females.
John Poll's Sarsaparilla is one of the greatest female
medicines noir In exiateure. In those numerous cases
where the constitution is debilitated, the nervous anew hi
lessened. when the efforts of nature aro weak and deficient,
or are prefase and overwrought, when the face is pole and
eoloriese, the strength feeble and yielding, the spirit trou
-144 .a the health broken, mind shaken, and
consequently the happiness destroyed—thou Bull's Sarsa
parilla is n ,vercign remedy. It anoints naturo in the per
finninuee of her duty, braces the whole system, remora
permanently the natural energise, nnuoves obstructions,
eheeks r xee,:ses, wastes pun, and healthy blood, and imparts
health ;,n.l happiness. Were ladles generally to adopt the
mt of the, , 311AUVille, we would see far lose auffering, diseasto
end unhappiness among them than now exists, health would
take the Owe of disease, thi rosy cheek would succeed the
pallid Mee: Wl,lllOlllll have smiles instead of tears, and per
haps tt happy long life instead of one cut abort by dieense,
or made miserable by continued suffering and affliction.
At that eritteal period termed the "turn of life," which In
often attended with so much danger, Bull's Sarsaparilla in
found to exert n meet beneficial effect. All ladies approach
ing this crials, should ts. apprised of this fact, and avail
themselvee of this valuable Medicine.
A BEAUTIFUL CLEAR SKIR.
Now we all admire a clear, beautiful, white Plan, and
rosy col,ml .•heck. How often do wo see persons, not pos•
sawing this "desideratum to devoutly to be wished," re
sorting to ettinuttirs, lotions, washes, paints, and coloring
materials, to restore to thorn a semblance of what disease
11118 deprivisi them of, and that, too, with great Injury to
the shin. Sell's Sarsaparilla is the beet Cosmetic known.
It beautifies the chin by ',moving every particle of morbid
and disc ased matter frefa the blood, making it pure, heal•
thy end vigorott. giving artivity to every minute vessel,
and changing the yellow and dark countenance to the
Mount at,' fccolitetss of youth. Ladies, abandon the use of
paints end mixtures, and We Sarsaparilla, the only
effectual remdy. "A wont to the Witte is sufficient," and

Read the following certificate:
lIU;TINGDON, March 11, 1850.
For the benefit of sufferers like me and oth
ers, I do freely declare the following facts :—I
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 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
short 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 land will be with
out it when they once know its me.

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. COUTS.
LEWISTOWN, March 1850.
1 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
clays 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.

GREAT
Improvement In Daguerreotypeing
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
as clear weather—which are justly pronounced by
artists and ecietifle men, UNRIVALLED, 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 size 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 come hundreds, embraces a
collection of DISTINGUISHED AMERICANS
worthy the attention of visitors to their rooms,
which are OPEN AT ALL TIMES.
The collection winch they had deposited in the
exhibition of the Franklin Institute, was constadt
ly surrounded by dense crowds of admirers, who/
were loud in their praise of the artists' skill.
To guard again;t every possibility of mistake;
they guarantee every picture to be of the best ma
terials, and unless it is entirely satisfactory to the
customer, NO CHARGE IS MADE.
W' When visiting the city call at their rooms,
whether you wish a Daguerreotype or not. The
admission is free, and you will be pleased with
your visit. Don't forget the number, 118 Chesnut
street, a few doors below Fourth.
