COLLETON BITTERS.

Pnu"?? ariJ are offered to the public from
principle of benevolence, under the fullest convic
Hon that Uiey will be found a sale and sovereign
?ernedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium
mantly tested, not only by some of the moat re
sectable families and physicians in the State of
touth Carolina, who have furnished ample testi
nony a* to their decided excellence, but also by the
proprietor, who, for ten years, suffered all the gloom
incident to that stubborn and distressing disease
They possess tho peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by con
tinued use. They contain not a single deleterious
ingredient, and, as seen from the directions which
accompany each bottle, may l.e given with entire
safety to an infant iu the month.
With pleasure, and for the benefit of mankind I
send you a certificate relative to the Colleton Bit
ters.
In the year 1838, when the cholera was in
Charleston, S, C., I was compelled to send a servant
to the city. On his return, he was suddenly attack
ed with most violent pain in bis bowels, so much so
as to cause apprehension that he would expire in a
short time, if medical aid could not be procured I
immediately resorted to the Colieton Bitters/by (riv
ing a wine glass full at a dose. In the course of e
very short time it acted as an emetic, and throwing
him at the same time into a profuse perspiration. I
then continued to give it in small doses, from Iwo to
three tea spoon^full, which resulted in a happy re
covery. Since, then I have been using it constantly
in my family, in cases of cholera mdrbus, cholera
infantum, diarrhoea and general debility, and in
every instance found it highly beneficial. Some

It is with feelings of gratitude as well as pleasure
that I take this method of giving my testimony of
the great estimation which I entertain for your in

dicine, but for the benefit of others who may be suf
fering from the same malady, Dyspepsia, with which
I was for years afllicted, I fee) it a jqty incumbent
on me to state that I am now restored to perfect
health. When I commenced taking the Colleton
Bitters it was as a Inst resort. My debility from in
dige*tion was so great that a cure was looked upon
as almost hopeless. After taking it regularly and
perseveringly for some time, my strength and di
gestive powers were entirely restored. I have never
taken a single dose of any otl^er njedicipe for more

Dr. Christie's Galvanic Rings and Mag
netic Fluid. *
THIS remarkable invention, which has receive
the almost, universal approbation of the medica
profession of Great Britain, comprises an entirely
new application of Galvanism, as a remedial agent
by means of which the ordinary Galvanic Batteries,
Electric and Magnetic Machines, Ac. are entirely,
dispensed with, and lb* mysterious power of Galvan
ism applied without anjr of the objections which are
inseparable from the general mode now in use.
The Galvanic Rings have been ucsd with entire
snoeesa in all eases ef rheumatism, aeute or chronic,
applying to the head, face, or limbs ; gout, tic-dolo
reux, toothache, bronchitis, vertigo, nervous or sick
headache, indigestion, paralysis, palsy, epilepsy, fits,
cramp, palpitation of the heart, apoplexy, stiffness of
the joints, spinal complaints, lumbago, neuralgia,
nervous tremors, dizziness of the head, pains in the
chest and side, general debility, deficiency of ner
vous and physical energy, and all nervous disorders;
In cases of confirmed dyspepsia, which is simply a
nervous derangement of the digestive organs, tl.ey
have been been found equally successful. Their ex
traordinary effects upon the system must be witnessed
to be be belived, and aa a certain preventive for the
preceding complaints they are equally recommended.
The rings are of different prices, being made of all
sices, and of various ornamental patterns, and can
be worn by the most delicate female without the
slightest inconvenience. In fact, the sensation is ra
her agreeable than otherwise.
T?* Galvahic Bzvrs, BnAcaizTs, Bands, Ga?
tkbs, Necklaces, ,&c. Ac. These articles are
adapted to the waist, arms, wrists, limbs, ankles, or
any part of the body with perfect convenience. The
Galvanic Necklaces are used with greater benefit in
canes of bronchitis or affections of the throat gener
ally ; also, in cases of nervous deafness; and with
almost uniform success as a preventive for appoplexy,
epileptic fits, and similar complaints. _ >1
Christie's Magnetic Fluid is used in connexion)
with the Galvanic Rings, aiid all their modifications.
This composition haa been pronounced by the
French Chemists to be one of the most extraordi.
nary discoveries of modern science. Full explana
tions and directions accompany it. The combined
inventions are in every way perfectly harmless; they
are at prices within reach of all, and the discoverer
only requests a fair trial, as a test of their surprising
efficacy and permanent benefit.
Chuistib's Galvanic Stkknbthknino Pias
tkhs.?These articles form another valuable applica
tion of the mysterious influence of Galvanism. They
are an important adjunct to the genuine Galvanic
Rings and their modifications, acting upon the same
prineiple, but having the advantage of more local ap
plication* They are confidently recoinended as a
valuable addition in the spoedy cure of rheumatism,
acute or chronic; in all nervous complaints, and as a
(tositive remedy in cases of pain and weakness in the
chest oqtaack, pain in the side, in asthmatic affections,
and in'weakness or oppression of the pulmonary or
gans. In spinal complaints their effects are of the
most decided character, and they have often been
used with complete success. They are also of the
greatest advantage in pains and weakness ef the
breast, and are highly recommended for many of
those complaints to which females are especially li
ablo. As an effectual means for strengthening the
system when debilitated with disease and other cau
ses, as a certain aid in constitutional weakness, as
a preventive for colds, and in all affections of the
chest generally, the Galvanic Strengthening Plas
ters will be found of great and permanent advan
tage.
