ARMITAGE'S
Electro-Magnet Lightning Rods.
AFTER many years' close investigation and
numerous experiments, the Patentee takes
pleasure in informing the public that he has arri
ved at the true principles of protecting families,
dwellings and property from the destructive in
flume of Lightning. Ihe calamities that
every City, Town, Village and Country falls vic
tim to annually, through the gross negligence of
its inhabitants, is beyond cnlculation, especially
when the remedy is so cosy to obtain—this Is
found in Armitage's Patent Magnetic
Lightning Rods, and in this alone. This
Rod has been examined by the most scientific
gentlemen in the world—Professors 111'11turtrie,
Johnson, \\Tailor and many others that have ex
amined them, recommend and speak of them in
the highest terms of approbation, and have pro
nounced them the only safe rods in use in this or
any other country, for the protection of Lives and
Property. One advantage is to divide and throw
back a part of the electric fluid harmless to the
clouds; in time of a stroke this enables the rod
to conduct that portion of fluid that belongs to
the earth without the slightest danger of leaving
the conductor. This rod has ninny other ndven
tnges over the old one. The only place of man

I have this day carefully inspected a Conductor
or Lightning Rod, with vane and index, erected
by Mr. Thomas Armitage, on Bellevue House,
Gloucester, nod have no hesitation in saying that
it is not only the hest that I have ever seen, lint
that it is the only one I have yet examined that
is constructed on strictly , cientilic princii.les. It
is with much pleasure that I recommend this
conductor to the attention of owners of buildings.
11. McMURTRIE.
I am well satisfied that the Magnetic Lightning
Rod, manufactured by Mr. Thomas Armitage, of
Philadelphia, is the best that has ever been made•
I have spent several years in the study of the laws
of electricity and magnetism, and have no hesita
tion in saying that these Rods are constructed
npon the only principle of safety. The electric
shock is received and dispetsed by the magnet at
the top of the rod, and it would be impossible,
according to the laws of attraction and repulsion,
for a building to ho injured by a stroke of light
ning when protected by one of these rods. I
have been acquainted with Mr. Armitage for sev
eral years, and betbre be commenced the manu
facture of these rods I examined the principle on
which they are constructed, and felt convinced
that their adoption would be attended with com
plete success. The increasing demand for these
rods, and the extensive sales in all ports of the
country, is ample commendation of their utility
and superiority.

The following extract is taken from an editori
al in the Germantown Telegraph, edited by Major
FREAS :•••••••
'Mae bogus rod placed upon our dwelling we
have had taken down; and another creted by Mr.
ARMITAGE, to which we would cull the attention
of our farmers and readers generally. It is put
up on true scientific principles, and is a rod that
has been approved by the highest authority, and
will bear the most thorough examination. Those
w:
'ho have been deceived, us we have been, should
lose no time in having a proper protection against
lightning, substituted. The cost is a mere bag
atelle when compared with the entire safety of
our houses and barns against this destructive ele
ment. Mr. ARMITAGE'S advertisement will bo
found in the columns of this paper; and 'co feel
as though we were performing an imperious duty
to the community, by thus inviting to it general
attention."

My nu,. SIR. After a trial of many weeks, it
animas me great pleasure to inform you that I
am highly delighted with the lightning rod yon
placed upon my house at Bustleton. As far as
my chemical knowledge enables me to perform
all opinion, I am satisfied you have developed
the correct principles in the adaptation of rods to
protect property from destruction by lightning; as
soon as the advantages of your arrangements are
understood, I ern convinced that few persons will
be found so reckless as to fail to avail themselves
of the protection afforded by your rods. Wishing
you all success in your enterprise,

ARE YOU SICK 7
Then you can't he cured too soon. Don't de
lay until your complaint is incurable, and then
mourn when it is too lute. Four fifth of all the
diseases which people the church-yards might
be cared by Ayer's Cathartic Fills, if taken in
season. Don't go dragging through the Spring,
faint sleepy and hatless, because your blood is
loaded with bile. Don't wear the head-ache,
Heartburn, and their kindred disorders, because
your stomach is foul. Don't parade yourself
around the world, covered with Pimples, Blotch
es, 'Ulcers, Sores and all or any of the unclean
diseases of the skin, because your system wants
cleansing. Don't show yourself about, lean,
haggard, all caved in, because your stomach and
bowels need strengthening into healthy action.—
Ayers Pills set these things right as surely as
water quenches tire. They purity the body and
blood, and restore their functions into healthy
activity which yott can feel as quick as they are
taken. They are the ono great medical wonder
of this age, recognized by all who know their
virtues, and many thousands know them. Take
the Cherry Pectoral for a Cough, and the rills
for all derangements requiring a purgative med
icine.
