No. 1 We copy the following from the Phila

We call the attention of our renders who may
he afflicted with Consumption, Dyspepsia, Fever
and Ague, or Rheumatism, to Dr. J. W. Coop
er's N , ledicines, fir the cure of the above mention
ed diseases. [They are prepared only by C. I'.
Hewes, he. Ilnving purchased the. Recipes and Sole
Right of Sale for them all.] When it is remem
bered that Dr.J. W. Cooper is the far-finned and,
renowned INDIAN HERB DOCTOR, who late
ly resided in Philadelphia, end who was,. distin
guished above all others, fur the wonderful and
almost miraculous success of those medicines, we
feel confident that no person, who may be raided
with any of the close mentioned diseases, will
fail to he cured, if they will give these mediehfes
a fair trial. We, ourselves, know a number of
cases where they have succeeded in effecting com
plete and permanent cures, otter all other Dottors
and all other Medicines hail failed. We give be
low a list of these Medicines, via:
Dr. J. W. Cooper's Indian Vegetable Cougli,
Or Consumptive Syrup, fur the cure of Coughs.
Colds, Spitting of Blood, Whooping Cough,
CONSUMMON, and all other diseases of the
Pulmonary Organs.
Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Dyspepsia Bit
ters, for the cure of Dyspepsia.
Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Compound
Fever and Ague Pills. They are a cure for Fe
ver end Ague in three clays.
Qr. J. IV. Cooper's Vegetable Rheumatic
DrAbs. This inedicine is positively a certain and
never failing remedy for Chronic, Sciatic,
Ltfin
matory and Mu-curial Rheumatism.
Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Worm Pow
ders. A certain, safe and effectual Worm Exter
minator, and pleasant for children to take.
Dr. J. W. Cooper's Vegetable Anti• Dyspepsia
Pills; for COSTIVENESS or Irregularity of the
Bowels: and for all diseases requiring n purgative
these Pills cannot be surppassed. They operate
without causing the slightest pain. For the con
venience of the afflicted I'. Rend, & Son,
Iluntingdon; G. W. Brehtnnu, MeVeytown; and
J. M. Belford, Mifflintown; is agents for the stile
Of Dr. J. W. Cooper's medicines, and of whom
the genuine can be obtained.
gir The Stomach prepares the elements of the
bile and the blood; and if it does the work feebly
it'd imperfectly, liver disease is the certain re
'suit. As soon, therefore, as any affection of the
liver is perceived, we may be sure that thediges
tive organs are out of order. The first thing to
he done, is to administer a specific which will act
directly upon the stomach—the mainspring of the
animal machinery. For this purpose si•c con re
commend 1100FLAND'S German Bitters, prepar
ed by Dr. C. M. Jacked'', Philadelphia. Acting
as an alterative and a tonic, it strengthens the
digestion, changes the condition of the blood and ,
thereby gives regularity to the bowels.
