PUBLIC ATTENTION
IS respectfully solicited by the subscriber, to an in
valuable preparation, the merits of which have
been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted
'"dTrELFE’S botanical drops
are every year increasing their long established repu
tation. They have outlived many rival preparations,
and are continually gaining upon public confidence.
The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin
istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that
well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases
which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or a' j®’
reditary predisposition in the patient, and genera y
appear undeT the various and distressing shapes o
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, l.eprosv, St Anthony s Hre,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foal and 3 b
atinate Ulcers. Sore Legs and Byes, Scald Head, and
Venereal Taint. _ , ,
In the last mentioned condition of the system, the
Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk
ing poison. where mercury has totally failed, and thus
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
reditary disease on his offspring.
Dr. lJelfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in
cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruptions on
the skin— and other diseases of the external surface;
and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics
known, to free the system from humors
A physician of eminence, who had witness't. the ef
ficacv of this article, hul the candor recently to ack
nowledee to the proprietor, that he considered it the
best medicine known, for the complaints for which it
is intended, and that it ought deserved y to stand at
the head of the whole class of such remedies.

BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE.
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every
respect, and lus, for many years past, given universal
satisfaction wherever it has been used.
The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid ana
other deleterious ingreuieiua, "-'
enter the composition of tooth powder* in common
use, and it whitens the enamel of the teeth without
doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad
mired powder, by purifying the mouth and preventing
the accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre
ventive of the Tooth Ache The Denlrifice removes
discolorations, and restores the beautiful native white
ness of the enamel. As its application braces and
strengthens the Gums, it secures to them their healthy
and florid hue, and, by removing all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. Price 50 cents

CONSUMPTION. ASTHMA & CATARRH.
IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of civilized society, Consumption
takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life; yet .his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its
earher stages. It is only when neglected that it ar
rive3at the terrific maturity which so often bafnes the
sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough
is the custom \ry forerunner of the pulmonary cun
sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis
tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be (
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive 1
symptoms — oppression of the breast; greenish and .
bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri
yelled extremities, and general emacia'ion of the .
whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks; j
swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses- I
sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still whis- J
pers her flattering tale-“Cold extiemities, »■*j ® pre- j
mature death. .
For the various stages of this complaint, one of the
most ADpmv. d remedies ever yet discovered is
DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally sate and
innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been far advanc
ed i n a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit
ed the appearances wliich usually indicate a lata* ter
mination of *he disorder.
As ihe Pills require in ordinary cases no confine
ment, they mav be administered with confidence and
safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled
' success has hitherto attended their administration in a
great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to
a multitude, which testify to their efficacy id reviving
the emaciated victim from the bed of disease, and re
storing him to the bleasiugs of accustomed health and
activity.
Price $1 for wha/e boxes of 30 pills, and 50 cents for
bait do. of 12 pills, with directions.
DEBILITATED FEMALES.
fllHE complaints peculiar to the female part of the
■t community, have been long successfully treated
by the administration of the Aromatic Puls, originally
prcscrioed and compounded Ly Dr Uelfe. 1 hey
cleanse the blood from those disorders of the female
constitution, for which the pills are an effectual speci
fie; they restore a free circula ion, reform the irregular
operations of the sangtrferous system, and rectify the
disordered habits. The proprietor’s confidence in the
superior excellence of this equally innocent and pow
erful preparation, is founded on the roost decisive tes
tiroony from many restored patients. He can assure
this portion of the public, that when
dr. RELFES A ROM \ FIC PILLS FOR
FEMALES
are regularly taken, according to the directions, ac
companying them, they revive and establish the desir
ed healthy habits, and restore to the pal’id counte
nance the natural glow of health and good spirits
Married ladies will find the pills equally useful, ex
oept in cases of paegnancy, when they must not ue
taken* neither must they be taken by persons of hec
tic or consumptive habits. They may be used success
fully by either men or women m all Hypochondriac,
Hysteric or Vapourish disorders. In all cases of this
description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the
disordered system. Price $i 50 a box.

BEWARE OF IMPOSITION.
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC
OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins,)
Prepared by C. HSRSTONS. near Frederick
town. Maryland.
Richmond. Va- July 15, 1810.
nublic will be pleased to understand that I was
T thePorigind discoVerer of Judkins’ Ointment and
sole proprietor of the patent from September. 1817
until the expiration of the aamei out, having connect
ed myself with Dr. Judkins in the commencement, I
permitted the Ointment to bear his name. 1 he term
of the patent having expired on the 26th June, I have
made an improvement in the same, and taken out ft p
tent thereon. f? SHfcPHBR .
rrj- Imposition having been practised upon the nub- j
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of ‘ Jud-j
kins' Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself ot the
authority granted to him in his letters patent, now to
call the Ointment after his own name. Henceforth it
will be known by the name of
SHEPHERD'S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT
MENT, (formerly Judkins'.)
When 1 first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had, in several instances experienced its good effects,
I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in wnat
cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally fall in.o many j
hands, some of whom would probably undertake to
make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process ne
vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated si
tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi
nal—and in this way its good effects would be oblitera
ted Under these considerations, I secured the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases,
some of which have so long baffled the skib of me
dical science: .
1st White swellings of every description;
2d Sore let's and ulcers of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose
hardened tumors in women’s breasts, which oftentimes
terminate in ulceiated cancers;
4th Felons; or what some people know by the name
of catarrhs, of every description.
5th Rheumatic pains of the joints;
/*. i_ o_: „ „ ....A Kruia^c iJVf»l'V lleSCl'IDtlOn. or 1 II
util -- V *
whatever part situate; .
7th Tetters of all kinds, fn this complaint the pa
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
out of water;
8th Chilblains or partsaffected by frost.
It is also one of the best remedies for burns and
scalds. U eases the pain and draws the fire out iij a
short time.
For inflamed women's breasts and glandular swel
lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the
medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap
plications, (as it does not contain the smallest atom of
any preparation of the mineral,) because it does not
lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold.
This (liniment has cured sores of many years stand
ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal th<»
external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming
carious 01 rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries,
increase the quantity of discharge, remove the offen
sive smell, and ease the pains
It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica
tion of forty-eight hours

Sir—My son having been afflicted for five years

within my rear.li without success, I at length procured
one jug of Dr Judkins’ Patent Specific Ointment, and
made the application according to the directions ac*
fmpanving the Ointment, and state, for the benefit
the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect
cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health
ever since. 1 have no douot that to the Ointment alone

to communicate to you the good effect with which 1
trave used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins,
and winch I now understand is made and sold by
agents appointed by yourself, I have applied this
Ointment during the last three years to every species
oftumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure
in every instance. I consider it the most decided and

what it may; and l have found nothing so good for
wounds of any description It may be proper to
add, that the cure of h tumor called wnite swelling,
/iven over b ' the most distinguished physicians as in
curable, and which t hey d raided would, without ampli

Baltimore, August, 1828. ,
Doctor S. H. P. Lee, New London, Conn.
Dear Sir—It is now upwards of twenty years that.I
have used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami
ly, and always found them an efficient purgative in al
most everv description of disease, and believe they sa
ved many' a long doctor’s bill by their early and timely
use. i never found their accustomed certainty to vary
in their operation and effects until a few months past;
and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve
ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you
had made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac
ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this
impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of
yours in a New Yorfc newspaper, designating spurious
imitations from your own manufacture, by having your
WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions,
and that in no instance were the imitations signed with
pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other
respbct. Finding those 1 had without this test, I be
gan to suspect that “ all was not fair in medicine, as
well as in politics, and called at several of our apothe
caries for your pills, with your written signature. I
found many without this test, but none with it, until I
came to the Messrs Keerls’, who assured me they nau
them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using
them, found the same effects from them l had always
experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding ray
self in possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that
that I cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this
information. •
q3* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu
rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has
only to examine tlie bill of directions covering each
box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im
m orViafnlu ainrlpl* mi/ nri nt*»d nume. thev are genuine,
and prepared by me; but if oirLir the printed name is
affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.

and all cutaneous disorders; in short, every compiai.it
to which the human frame is so direfully subject u.v
der all their varied forms and names; as the HygC'ir.n
conviction is, that man is subject to one onlo ru!l
Disease- that is, TO THE IMPURITY OP THE
BLOOD, -from whence springs every comohint tha*
can possibly assail his complicated frame; end tbv i,
is the perpetual struggle of this vital, pure alre^re 0
life, (the gift of Almighty power) to disencumber i,
self of its viscous, acrid humours, with which it b. be
come commixed, through the negligence of p.reiu ,
the ignorance or maltreatment ol the Doctors; or I
| vicious or gormandizing propensities of us all.
This valuable Medicine, being composed only of
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted,
on oath, as containing not one particle of mercurial,
mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un
congenial to the nature ol man, and therefore lestruc
live to the human frame,) is found to he perfectly
harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pi asarst
and benign in it operation, and at the same time th -
most searching out the root of every complaint, how
ever deep, and of perfoiming a cure; that wij ever
offered to the world- This wonderful effect, too. i.
produced by the least trouble to the patients, by
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and
being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, o
exhaustion of bodily strength, and without vhe tea: of
rotrhina- rnld. nr»ttention to dress nr diet, in nnv u-s
different from their accustomi d habits.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot betaken ;c
excess Experience, which is the touchstone of p!I
human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the
fact; and extensive use of them has airou.y verified
its truth in this country.
These medicines cure by purging;and yet the weak,
the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are
in a few days strengthened by their r peution, be~“. is?
they clear the body of its bad humours, and inv . ria . v

Extract of a Letter to Dr. Moat.
Sin : The motive which ha-> induced me to writethn
letter to you, is, that 1 might be instrumental in th*
recommendation of Morrison's Universal Vegetable
Medicines to the afflicted, which, by the Divine ble-s
ing, has cured me of the Scarlet Fever. My chsc 'va?
as follows: Whilst returning from Washington to >lez
andria, I was taken very ill, which obliged me, on .tj
arrival, to retire suddenly to bed, but could not sleep,
and the next day my throat became so much inflamed,
that I could scarcely swallow; and my face, breast, i ..
body, presented evident symptoms of the great ear
ger I was in, and I knew not what to do; Calomel o.
Mercury I abhorred as poison, and therefore dcsi;
no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother,
had experienced the good effect of the Hygeian Pd:
in a case or two of her own, most strenuously aJvi ei.
me to try their virtue, which, with reluctance, i c< :.
sented to, and commenced by taking eight No. 1 pi ^
at night, and eight No 2 the next morning, and con
tinued taking, increasing daily, morning anti evening,
until I took sixteen No 2 at a time, which were dis
solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat. i enu-r.
not otherwise swallow them. I confess the nose pi<-( -
me feel somew'Uat qualmish, &c ; but the pills an i -
powders, of which 1 took one or two tea-spoonmui!
day, operated well, and the final result was, tlirt t
into a sound sleep, of which 1 had been deprived,
the next morning awoke in a state of perspiration,!.?e
from fever, cool and comfortable, and my reavii i
I had been deranged in mind) returned; and on da
9th day from the time ! was first taken, 1 left my rooii'.
and have ever since enjoyed better health than i did
before You have my leave to make what use >cu
please of this. I wish you success, and am, cir. > ou:
