It is the same with the baker and loneli er, the manufacturer, mechanic, Sic., and it is well that there is this stimulus to induce the thoughtful anti skillet to devise and prepare in convenient form, suitable remedies for the nfflic- Ceti. An individual, under a distressing and tor turing tit of Chills and Feet, is not in a right condition to study ant the MC/1119 of relief; end it is more sensible and natural that he should look to others, titan to depend upon hie own prostrated energies for the antidote. For an oppropriate and valuable remedy, therefore, it is fully to oh ject, because it is another's interest to dispose of it. To die invalid the important consideration i is simply this, "Will I lie benefited by the pur -1 chase rat the article offered'" The invalid should inquire into the testimony presented to establish its value; the testimony should he carefully investigated, and just so much credit given to it, and no tnore, than it deserves. If of a personal character, we should look to the respectability of the witnesses, and the opportu nity which they have haul for an observation of the facts, and the probable impartiality, and con sequent truthfulness, of their statements. Cor roborating statements of a number of respectable witnesses to the truth of any fact, may amount to irresistible evidence. We might enter into a detailed account of the study and tuber incident to its preparation—of the scientific principles upon which it is based— oldie necessity which exists, in the very nature of the compound, for effecting immediate cures in almost every instance—and of the character and respectability of the witnesses who have tes tified to the astonishing cures whirls it has inva riably performed. We might enumerate other eases, and cite the testimony of others, and in deed weary our reader with repetitions of cases. This we deem unnecessary, and shall therefore confine ourselves to a selection of n few of those whose clmroete•s and standing in the community are well known, and scheme positions gave them the opportunity of testing the value of the Prier Cure. The gentlemen whose Certificates are given. are well known to the citizens of Lancaster and York Counties, in Pennsylvania, besides other portions of that State; also to the citizens of Ma ryland who reside in the ueighliorhood of the Susquehanna and Tido-water Canal.

IPIIIDTAAIELITME To TDB INVALIDS Or INNTINGDONI 9t1,000 Reward ! ft ERM A CHER'S Iftdro-Illectric Voltaic Chains, AIIIE for the first titan introduced to the people of Huntingdon and vicinity, as tho most con venient, effectual, and strictly scientific mode of instantly relieving and permanently eating elf NERVOUS DISEASES. Now we know that nu announcement similar to the above meets the eye of the reader almost doi ly, and perhaps thin may be classed with many others. But listen or you do us injustice. It is claimed that Pulvermacher's Electric Chain, is the only magnetic remeditml agent that Is secured by patent, granted by this government, on the ground that it was n strictly useful and scientific article. The Chains are now on exhibition at the Crystal Palace, and attract much attention from the thousands who daily visit it. MODE Ok USE. The manner of using the chains is very simple. The chain ix first moistened with common vinegar, and -then one end of the chain is applied to the part whore the pain is located, and the other end opposite to the first. The ends of the chain should never touch each other. At the moment of ap plication, the must steam pant is instantly relieved, wherever it is located, by the passing through the part a constant current of uninterrupted clear° magnetism.' In the following diseases, no other remedy has ever given such complete and perfect satisthetion to the patient as Pulvermacher's Chains: Rheumatism, Painful and swelled Joints, Pains in the Back, Deafness, Blindness Paraly sis, Neuralgia in the Face, Long standing Ner vous Headache, Palpitation of the 'Heart, Gener al Debility, Dyspepsia, Female Diseases, Asthma, Contracted Joints, &c. 1000 DOLLARS will be given to any person who wilt produce so many well authenticated certificates of cure from intelligent patients and scientific physicians, of the above diseases, as has been performed by the use of the Electric Chain storing the past year. ANOTHER FAOT. It is truly the fact that wherever the electric chains have been introduced, bottled nostrums and common lard have greatly diminished in sale, people having become disgusted with the practice of using their stomachs for drag shops. RECOMMIODATIONS. The Electric Chains are highly recommended by Professors Mott, Van Buren, Post and Carno chain, of New York; are also in daily use in every hospital in that city. The chains will last for years, aro always ready for use, and produce no injurious results, when used as dieected. FEMALE DISEASES. The introduction of the Electric Chain into this country is the dawn of a new era in medicine.— During the last twenty years, it can safely be es timated that ten thnosand females have died year ly front this ono disease, PROLAPSUS UTERI. It it well known to medical met that this com mon disease is beyond the reach of medicine, and that in proportion to the amount of medicine gin en, the more the patient is doomed to sullbr, and sooner will death close the scone. During the last 2 }rears more than one thousand cases of Prolapsus Uteri (tidling of the womb) have been permanently cured in England and France. Must of those cases were ladies of high standing, who had previously tried all utherkinds of treatment with no benefit. Among the distin guished ladles that have been cured in Paris is the present Queen of Prance. In this country, du ring the last year, one hundred cases have been cured in the city of New York, ninny who have allowed their names to be published for the bene fit of those suffering with similar complaints.— The mode of use is simply to apply ono end of a 30 link chain to the spine just above the hips, and the other end upon the alithunen, and allow the chain to remain for one hum•. This to be repeat ed 'bur times during the twenty-lbur hours. CHRONIC RHEUMATISM. The Electric Chains never fail to relieve the severe pains and swelling incident to this disease. The worst forms of this disease readily yield.to few applications of a chain. and in no single in stance have they failed to give instant relief, if they did not effect a permanent cure. All persons who aro victims of this min winter complaint, are kindly iaritod to call and obtain a pamphlet of HORACE W. SMITU. Agent for Hun tingdon county, who will also explain their mode of use. The electric chains can ho sent by mail to any part 01 the United States, by addressing (post paid) arar of the agents in the principal cities, or Joseph gteincrt, 568, Broadway Now York.
