equally calcu'atml to l>e safely used far apparently
small ones. We all kuow how dreadful and dan
gerous a sealed bilious disorder is, and we are also
well aware of the seeming insignificance of i's firji
warnings or incipiency. The individual suffering |
from slight pains in hu chest, hack, or stomx-h, or
from occasional nau-ea.dull headache, extreme ner
vousnesu, sleeplessness, trifling prevarication of ap
petite, and other dUaereeaMe visitations so c mmon
ly and foolishly looked upon as unimportant, may
not know that these fymptoms treated s > contemp
tuously, are th? conse jaeueas of a diseased state of
the liver, which if not remedied, will lead either to
?pe?dy death or a I >iiR tiaiu of unbi arable ills which
are known liy the fulluwing names : Hyp ichondria,
mania, dizziness, slow fevers, epilep.y, asthma,
dropsy, rheumatism, chlornsis, c-mvul-ions nausea,
nrrvouaiiess, ciapms, gout, pleurisy, jaundice, irrita
bility, and violence, (iyspepaic, hyste ics, scurvy.foul

great intestine, strictures ami spa?-mi*Iic complaints
internally, eruptions, bh 'rtness of breath, heartburn,
neuralgia, vital inflammation, flatulence, gastiic ft

Sometimes, too, there ensues an irregular action
of the heart. Take these pills and sufl r no more.

For a number of years my Teeth and Gums were
so much out of order as to prevent me from eating
with pleosure, and caused me much pain. Having
heard of Wheeler's Teaberry Tooth Wash, I do

than two weeks my Teeth and Gums were sound
and good. I believe that the use of it would be an
advantage to many others. J. BRAZER.

TIIE PILEST
A CURE FOR LIFE SECURED.
R. UPHAM'SJ Vegetable Electuary,
un internal remedy for the Piles,?prepared by
Dr. A Upham, M. D., a regular educated Physician
who has devoted fiiteen years attention almost en
tirely to this disease.
The FJcctunry ha certain cure for the Piles, and
also for other diseases of a similar nature, which are
frequently found in conjunction with Piles, Rashe.-,
Inflammation of the Liver, and Spleen; Inflamma
tion, Soreness, and Ulceration ol the Stomach, Bow
els, Kidneys, and Bladder ; Inflammatory and Mer
curial Rheumatism ; Impurity of Blood ; Weakness
and Inflammationof the Spine.
THE VEGETABLE PILE ELECTUARY is
the only really successful remedy for that dangerous
and -distressing complaint, the PILES, ever offered
to the American Public.
Mark this: it is an INTERNAL REMEDY?
not an external application?and will cure anv case
of Files, either Bleeding or Blind, Internal or Exter
nal; and probably the only thing that will. There
is no mistake about it. It is a positive cure speedy
and permanent. It is also a convenient medicine to
take, and improves the general health in a remarka
ble manner.
It is very mild in its operation, and may be taken
in cases of the most acute inflammation, without
danger. All external applications are in the highest
degree disagreeable, inconvenient, and offentivo; and
fr..m the very nature of the disease, temporary in
their effects. This medciine attacks the disease at
its source, and REMOVING THE CAUSE ren
tiers the cure CERTAIN nnd PERMANENT.
The Electuary contains mineral medicine, no Jll
oes, Coeoci/nth, Gurnbuge, or other powerful and ir
ritating purgative. No fear of taking cold wlulo unl
der iu influence; no change in diet necessary. If
taken according to directions, a cure for life is guar
anteed/ J *

It io very seldom that I have ever recommended
any new invention, because I know that recommen

are in general of little value. But I consider it
nothing more than an act of justice to the inventor
to bear testimony to the good qualities of Harper's
Metalic Compound for sharpening Razors, and to
?ay it is the very bent material for the purpose that
has come to my notice. I have made a fair trial of
it, and have never found any thing equal to it for
