me from using your pills before I did. I can
truly say that no medicine in the known

Dr. WM. EVANS' CAMOMILE PILLS.
THE DIFFERENCE.
IT cannot be denied that whilst many
-amed
icines 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 a common
condemnation. And when a medicine comes
endorsed with all the great profession, and
warranted by the seal and signature of long
and uniform success, its proprietor makes
no unreasonable demand upon public confi
dence,when he claims for it a superior con
sideration.
THE CAMOMILE PREPARATION
of Dr. Evans, of New York, is undeniably
entitled to this enviable distinction; for whilst
no medical authority in existence condemns
it, every medical, work %cinch 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 ily in the face of all observation
and the testimony of thousands.
Dr. %V. EVANS does not pretend that
his Camomile Pills will cure all diseases_
He frankly and conscientiously admits that
they will not. He lays no claim to the dis
covery of the "Philosopher's Stone, and
wishes nobody to believe that he sells the
Elixir of Life," but he does say and he does
believe and he can prove that in debilitated
and impaired constitutions; in nervous dis.
eases of all kinds; in weakness of the diges
tive organs; in incipient consumptions wheth
er of the lungs or of the liver; in the dread
ful debility ()tensioned by the use of purga
tives, in palsy, rheumatism (more especial
ly) in the sickness incident to mothers and
females of relaxed nerves; in every case of
delirium tremens, or that disease which is
brought on by intemperance; in the wretch
ed horrors of the mind and body which ac
crue from occasional inebriety, in the loss
of appetite; languor, melancholy, pains in
the head f limbs, or side; in corrupt, sallow,
and uncomely complexions,which arise from
the bad state of the fluids; in all these eases,
and in some others mentioned in 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 known) which are sold with
them, will affect immediate relief; and if us
ed but 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. W. Evans
can conscientiously request confidence. He
therefore need only to add that his camomile
pills, together with his excellent aperient
pills, can be obtained, wholesale or retail at

Important to the Sick.
TUE vissi.witudes of the summer,and the
preceding spring, have afforded pecu
liar opportunities for exemplifying to the
country the happy effects of Dr. W. Evans'
Camomile Tonic Pills,upon debilitated con
stitutions. In cases ofextreme nervous suf
fering, which stinafiling tonics only mo
mentarily relieve, anftlit length greatly ag
gravate, a single box of these beautifully
compounded pills has proved an immediate
and continual benefit. The lass of appetite
and tremulous exhaustion which all invalids
feel during this oppressive season, are reliev
ed within two or three hours by one dose on
ly; and in many cases a few doses will forti
fy the system a long time against a recur
rence of these attacks. To Ladies especi
ally, who suffer from nausea and lassitude
incidental to interesting changes of health,
these pills are friends indeed, and a bottle of
them has hence become a favorite bundoir
and toilette confident of ladies in wedded life.
If taken before exercise in the open air,they
will generally prevent the lasitude and fa
tigue which frequently attend it at this sea
son; and if taken afterwards they never tail
to relieve these sensation in a few moments.
That oppressive sensation of arterial fullness
and throbbing in the head, which is gener
ally experienced in fervid and sultry weather.
is so speedily removed by those Pills that
they are recommended by a great number
of our best Physicians in preference to any
other prescriptions, as they are well known
to be in many other cases.
The cures,t he great.effectual and undenia

QIJACKS AND THEIR DESTRUCTIVE
NOSTRUMS.--The united testimony of
physicians throughout the United States has fully
proved the fact that Peters' Vegetable Pills are
the only true Vegetable Pills which will stand
the test of analyaatiou; hence the proprietor
would most earnestly urge it-am to the notice of
those who have been in the habit of using, as ca.
thartice or aperients. the destructive and Israel.
ting quack pills so generally advertised, and
which are at best but slow consumer, 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 case, they 'injure the digestive or.
guns, and an habitual resort to themmust termi
nate in confirmed dyspepsia.
It is true that cathartic:tad overlent medicines
are often required. but the nicest discrimination
should always be observed in the selection • and
if this be done, nothing injurict can resuft from
their use.
To produce this much-desired result. Dr. Pe
tars has made it his shady for several years, and
feels proud to say he has succeeded at length far
beyond his expectations. The object of his pills
is to supercede the necessity ofa frequent recourse
to injurious purgatives, and to offer a medicine
safe. certain. and pleasant in its operation.

?A have acquired as a Medical ltestoral ive,ie the
most unquestionable proof that can be given of
their immense importance to the afflicted, in al
most every class of diseases. The number of let.
tore received from patients recovering through
their means is really prodigious, and the com
plaints which they have cured are almost us var

some in which they are more especially benefiri:.;
than in ol'iers; and among those may be nun:*
the too often fatal complaints of the stomach arid
bowels, such as Cholic, Flatulence, and Indigos_

immediate cure.
It is well known that from the disarrangement

so general disorders, which embitter mature life,
