TO TILE PUBLIC.
THIS medicine has been before the pub
lic for three or• four years past and has ac
quired probably a greater degree of popu
larity, than any article ever before introduc
ed into general use. It coatains no noxiou,
article, nor mineral or metallic substance
and is carefully compounded so as to always
be of unifinan strength and consistency.
It will keep good for years and grows
more pleasant by age. Children are get,
erally very fond of it, and none will refuse to
take it. it is so well adapted to the various
complaints of children, that every family
should always keep it in their houses, as
most families who have used it, now do.—
Sailors and travelling persons should always
carry at with them.
This medicine is put up in round brans
moulded vials of two and four ounces each,
with the words "Da. D. JAYNE'S CARMI
NATIVE BALSAM " blown on them, and the
written signature of D. Jayne to the bottom
of each direction—none others are genuine.
This medicine is not recommended as a
"Panacea" to cure all diseases to "which
flesh is heir to" but us a remedy in Dim--
Ham The beginning and latter stages of
Dysentery, Cholera Morbus, the Spasmodic
or Malignant CuotEn.t, Cramps, Cholics,
Sick and nervous Headache. For the - Sum.
mer Complaint or Cum. ETI A. of children it is
unrivalled by any other combination of medi
eine ever used. It has repeatedly effected
cures, when every other means had failed
aided by the attendance and skill of the a
blest physicians, that could be procured.—
Obstinate Diarrhams of } ears standing, have
been removed by the use ofa few bottles of
it; violent Dysenteries arrested and Cholera
Mortars cured. The Spasms attending the
Malignant Cholera have always been sup•
pressed in from one to three minutes time,
and that much dreaded and fatal disease re
peatedly cured without the aid of any other
article of medicine. In filet its power over
spasmodic diseases of every kind seem to be
absolute as it has never yet been known to
Ihil of giving relief in a single instance.—
Griping pains, torminn and tenesmus
ics, Cramps &c. are also soon removed by it.
Hundreds of females and sedentary per
sons can attest to its superior excellence in
sick and nervous Headaches as two or three
teaspoonful's generally gives them relief 'in
the course of half an hour.
Children laboring under the Summer
Complaint, have been cured in a short time
after all known remedies had failed:--those
Roo who have been so extremely emaciated
that their bones almost protruded through
their skins, and all hope of recovery aban
doned, by all who saw them, have by a few
weeks use of this medicine beim restored-to
perfect health.
CERTIFICATES
Certificate from Dr. William Bacon, Pastor oftho
Baptist Church at Pittsgrove, Salem Co., N.J.
Having been made acquainted with the ingre
dients composing Dr. Jayne's Carminative Bal
sam, I believe it to be a very happy combination,
and a useful medicine in many complaints which
almost constantly occur in our country, such as
Bowel Affections of children, Cholic, Cramps,
Looseness, ,Dyspeptic Disorders of the Stomach,
Coughs, and Affections of the Breast, together
with all these diseases attended with Sourness of
the Stomach; and believe that the regular . physi.
cian will ellen find it a uselul remedy in his hands,
and one that is proper fbr domestic use, and can
be put into the hands of persons at large with
safety. WM. BACON, M. D.
Pittsgrove, Salem Co. N. J. May 4th, 1831.
Certificate from Dr. Win. Steeling
This may certify that I have used Dr. Jayne's
Carminative Balsam very extensively in Bowel
Complaints, and have not the least hesitation in
declaring it superior to any preparation that I
have met with, for the relief of those diseases.
WILLIAM STEELING, M. D.

From Dr. M. L. Knapp, late Physician to the Bal
timore Dispensary, and Agent for the Mary
land Vaccine Institution.
Baltimore. March 27th, 1833.
Dr. JAYNE—Doar Sii.—You ask me what proofs
I meet with of the efficacy of your medicine. I
can safely say that I never prescribed a medicine
for Bowel Complaints that has given me so much
satisfaction, and my patients so speedy and per
fect relief as this. Whenever introduced into a
fainily, it becomes a standing remedy for those
ailments, and is called for again and again; which
I think a pretty good proof of its efficacy and use
fulness. In the Summer Complaint ofchildron, it
has frequently appeared to snatch the little vic
tims, as it wore, from the grave. "It saved the
life of my child, and of such and such a child," I
have repeatedly heard said. In dysenteric affec.
tions of adults, I have time and again seen it act
like a charm, and give pertnanout relief in a few
hours, I may say in a few minutes. In fine, it is
a valuable medicine, and no family should be with.
out it. Respectfully,
From Dr. L. Lawrence.
Cedarville, Oct. 9th, 1832
Dr. D. JAYNE—Door Sir.—The curative powers
of your Carminative Balsam appears to be fairly
established in all Bowel Complaints, &c.; and
from the experience I have had with the medicine,
I am disposed to think very favorably of it. I
have lately tried it on ono of my children, who
was severely handled, and with coimiletaiuccbss,
without the use of any other medicine. o fur as
my practice has extended, I think it a desidera
tum in medicine, especially among children, who
are apt to be affected this way; and which every
practitioner in medicine has found to be a very
troublesopio disease. Re:i'pectfully,
LEONARD LAWRENCE, M. D.
From Dr. Charles Hammond
Dr. JAYNE—Dear Sir.--I have made use of the
Carminative Balsam prepared by you for Coin.
plaints of the Bowels, with complete success in
every case and I do not hesitate to recommend it
to the patronage of the public as a medicine,
worthy of their particular notice.

tic of any service to you, I would wish to bear a
public testimony in its favor; as wo have proved
its oacelleuey sory frequently in our family, and

RECOMMENDATORY NOTICES.
Dr. John S. Miller, Fredoricktown, Md.
I do hereby ocrtiry that I had this last
spring and summer a constant pain in my
stomach, and a great weakness in my kid
neys, and pain across my eyes, for which I
used a good many remedies without giving
relief. I was at last recommended to try a
bottle of Garlegant's Balsam of Health, pre
pared by John S. Miller. I accordingly
made use of one bottle, which I procured of
his agent in Hagerstown, which restored me
to my good health again, and am now us well
as ever I was, and you are at liberty to
make it known for the benefit of those ufflic
ted in the same way.
Yours, &c.
JACOB BOWER, Court Crier.
Hagerstown., Sept. 1834.
About two years ago I was severely af
flicted with the dyspepsia, which I had for
the last fifteen years, previous to the above
named time,wh►ch was very much increased
by my having a blood vessel ruptured upon
my lungs, occasioned by lifting—which in
creased my complaint, dyspepsia and goner
al weakness and debility to such a degree,
that for two years previous to my using the
Garlegant Balsam I never eut a meal but
my stomach became so painful that I had
immediately to throw it up. Seeing Garle.
gant's Balsam of Health advertised, I was
induced to try a bottle; after taking the very
first dose it appeared to strengthen my sto
mach; and every dose of the first bottle help•
ed me so much, that in the course of a few
days my stomach began to retain and digest
every thing I out. I continued to use the
Balsam until I used seven bottles, which
cured me entirely, and restored me to per
fect health, which I have enjoyed ever since,
and not before for fifteen years. I cheerful
ly recommend it to all persons who are af
flicted with dyspepsia or debility of stom
ach. Given under my hand this 11th day
of January, 1834.
HENRY LOUTH AN,
Frederick county, Va.
Leesburg. Virginia.
Dear Sin—l have used the Balsam of
Health which I procured from you, with
great benefit, if not with entire relief.—
When I procured it I was sorely afflicted
with dyspepsia, attended by all the distres
sing symptoms, headaches, giddiness, heart
burn, and the thousand nervous affections
which accompany it, in its worst stages.—
At times such was the debility occasioned,
that I was bed ridden. I think I can say,
that the first relief, if not the entire cure.
was produced by the use of the Balsam.
