HRS. GOOD, of Mount Joy, Lancas

Dr.
Will. EVANS' CAMOMILE PILLS
THE DIFFERENCE.
"[Monet be denied that whilst many med
irmes which are recommended to the
public, have not even the negative merit of
harmlessness, there are others which it
would be great injustice indeed and suicidal
prejudice to involve, untried, in u common
condemnation. And when a medicine comes
'endorsed with all the great profession, and
worrantcd by the seal and signnture of long
and uniform success, its proprietor
. tnakes
no unreasonable demand upon public confi
dence,when he claims for it a superior con
sideration.
THE CAMOMILE PREPARATION
of Dr. Evans, of Now York, is undeniably
entitled to thisenviabledistinctinn; for whilst
no medical authority in existence condemns
it, every medical, work winch alludes to it,
and every medical practitioner that is ac
quainted with it, freely acknowledges its
pre-eminent virtues; and that the latter
should do so in opposition to their personal
interests, must be attributed either to their
candor and love of truth, or to their unwill•
ingness to fly in the face of all observation
and the testimony of thousands.
Dr. W. EVANS does not pretend that
his Camomile Pills will cure all di cases.—
lie frankly and conscientiously admits that
they will nut. He lays no claim to the dis•
covery of the "Philosopher's Stone, and
wishes nobody to believe that ho sells the
Elixir of Life," but he does say and he does
believe and he can prove that in debilitated
and impaired const itutif.ns; in'nercous dis
eases of all kinds; in weakness of the di ges•
live organs; in incipient consumptions wheth
er of the lungs or of the liver; in the dread
ful debility occasioned by the use of purga
fiver, in palsy, rheumatism (more especial.
Iv) in the sickness iuralitait to mothers and
females of relaxed nerves; in every case of
delirium tremens, or that disease which is
brought on by intempe, once; in the wretch
ed horrors of the mind and body which ac•
eruct from occasional inebriety, in the loss
of appetite; languyr, melancholy, pains in
the head, limbs. or side; in corrupt, sallow,
and uncomely complexions,which arise from
the bad state of the fluids; in alAese cases,
mid in some others nientionedbn the bills
and directions given with his medicines, he
does say,that the Camomile Pill interchang
ed occasionally with his aperient family
pills, (the best lubosivn) which are sold with
them, will affect immediate relief; and if us
ed bttt for a fair period of trial, a perfect
cure. This much is placed beyond doubt,
by daily testimonies which would be given
on oath; and for this much Dr. %V. Evans
can conscientiously request confidence. lie
therefore need only to add that his camomile
pills, together with his excellent aperient
pills, can be obtained, wholesale or retail at
no. 19th north Bth at. Philadelphia. Also

QUACKS AND THEIR DESTRUCTIVE
NOSTRUMS.—The united testimony of
physicians throughout the United States has fully
proved the fact that Pomrs' Vegetable Pillsere
the only true Vegetable Pills which will stand
the test of annlyzation; hence the proprietor
would most earnestly urge them to the notice of
those who have been an the habit of using, as ca.
thartics or aperients, the destructive and !ultra.
ting quack pills so generally advertised, and
which are at best but slow consumers of the vital
functions, and murderous agents: even to the
most hale. It is true, most of them produce a
purgative effect, and sometimes transient relief;
but in most cases they injure the digestive or.
grans, and en habitual resort to theemust
nate in confirmed dyspepsia.
It is true that catilartic and aperient medicines
are often required. but the incest diectimination
should always be observed in the selection ; and
If this be dune, nothing injurious can result flow
their use.
To produce this much.dosired result, Dr. Po
ters has made it his study for several years, and
feels proud to say ho has succeeded at length far
beyond his expectations. The object of his pills
is to supercedo the necessity ofa frequent recourse
to injurious purgatives, and to Mier a medicine
safe, certain, and pleasant in its operation.

It is well known that from the disarrangement
of the stomach and bowels, arise nine tenths of all

HULL'S<TRUSS.
IT has been ascertained beyond contra
-m-dictirli, that peltiAns-can be cured per
manentlyP and effeetMO ill :Hernia or Rup
ture by the use of Hull's Iltruss. Numerous
certifiCates could be produced from Gentle
men - of the first respectability that have
been cured by wearing them. It is not
only the easiest to wear of any Truss ever
invented ; but it keeps the Hernia perfectly
reciaced, so that the person can ride or
!shear as well as if not thus afflicted. A
trial of this instrument would once convince
every person of its superiority over any
other article that could be offered for the
seine disease.
PC' A supply of the Genuine article is
jnst receifed and for sate at the Drug store
