PUBLIC ATTENTION
« '"J S r» spectfully solicited by the subscriber, to an in*
1 valuable preparation, the merits of which have
been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted
t*s*DR,'yRELFE’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 an he
reditary predisposition in the patient, and generally
appear under the various and distressing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony's Fire,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foul and Ob
stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Byes, Scald Head, and
zv Venereal Taint. .
In the last mentioned condition of the system, the
v Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk
ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus
f- . prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
* ' reditary disease on his offspring.
Dr. Relfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in
esses of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruptions on
the skin—and other diseases oMhe 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 d the ef
ficacy of this article, had the candor recently to ack
nowledge to the proprietor, that he considered it tne
best medicine known, for the complaints for which it
is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at
the bead of the whole class of such remedies.
Price $1 a bottle, o- 6 bottles for $5.
WHITE TEETH & HEALTHY GUMS.
TdOSB who would retain or restore these desirable
personal advantages, are assured that no compo
sition can be obtained superior t the
BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE.
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation m every
respect, and has, for many years past, given universal
satisfaction wherever it has been used.
The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and
other deleterious ingredients, which too ^ treejuent y
enter the composition of tooth powders in common
use. and it wlntens the enamel of me ceeto wiuwut
doing it the leant 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 Dentrifice 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, oy removing all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves t.ie natura
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 iuroads upon human
life; yet this dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its
earlier stages. 1t is only when neglected that it ar
rives at the terrific maturity whUh so often baffles the
sagacity of professional science- An obstinate cough
is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con
sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis* ,
'tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be j
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive
symptoms — oppression of the breast; greenish and j
bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; sbri
veiled extremeties, and general emaciation of the
whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks;
swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses
sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still whis
pers her flattering tale—rold extremities, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stages of this complaint, one ct the ;
* most approved remedies ever vet discovered is
DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and ■
innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid j
cures upon patient-s supposed toha^e been far advane i
ed in a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit*
. ed the appearances which usually indicate a fatal ter
mination of i he disorder.
As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine
ment, they ntav be administered with confidence and
safety to all ages ani classes of people. Unexampled
success ha* hitherto attended their administration in a
great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to
a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving
the em touted victim from the bed of disease, and re
storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and
activity.
Price |! for who/e boxes of 30 pills, and 50 cents for
half do. of 12 pills, with directions.
DEBILITATED FEMALES. >
THE complaints peculiar to the female part of the
community, hav e been long successfully treated
by the administration of the Aromatic Pills, originally
prescribed and compounded by Ur Relfe. They
cleanse the blood from those disorders of the female
constitution; for which the pills are an effectual sped
fic; they restore a free circula ion, reform the irregular
operations of the sangu ferous system, and rectify the
disordered habits. The proprietor's confidence in the
superior excellence of this equally innocent and pow
erful preparation, is founvted on the most decisive tes
timony from many restored patients He can assure
this portion of the public, that when
DR. RELFE’S AROMATIC 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 pallid counte
nance the natural glow of health and good spirits.
Married ladies will find the pills equally useful, ex
cept in cases of paegnancy, when they must not be
taken; neither must they be taken by persons of hec
tic o; consumptive habits. They may be used success
fully by either men or women in all Hypochondriac,
Hysteric or Vapourish disorders. In all cases of this
description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the
disordered system Price $1 50 a box.

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC
OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins,)
Prepared by C. HERSTONSnear Frederick
r town, Maryland.
Kichmohd. Va* July 15, 1830.
mHF nnblic will be pleased to understand that I was
T the origin.! discoverer of Judkins’ Ointment, and
sole Droariftorof the patent from September, 1817,
until fhe expiration of the same, but, having connect
ed myself wHh Dr. Judkins in the commencement, !
permitted the Ointment to bear his The. }*""
of the patent having expired on the 26th June, l ha e
made an improvement in the 8ame» °o P
tent thereon. N. SHEPHE •
qImposition having been practised upon the dud
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of “ Jud
kins* Ointment/* the proprietor avails himself of 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 I first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had, in several instances, experienced its good effects,
I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what
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 into many
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 tlie origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases,
some of which have so long baffled the skill of me
dical science: . .
1st White swellings of every description;
2d Sore legs and ulcer9 of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose
hardened tumors in woman’s breasts, which oftentimes
terminate in ulceiated cancers;
4th Felons; or what so-ne people know by the name
or catarrhs, of every description.
5th Kheumatic pain9 of the joints;
6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or in
whatever part situate;
7th Tf»tti*rs of all kinds. In this complaint the pa
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
out of water;
8th Chilblainsorpartsaffected by frost.
It is also one of the best remedies for burns and
scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a
short time.
For inflamed women’s breasts and glandular swcl
lings, it is superior to any medicine vet 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 Oimment has cured sores of many years stand
ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal the
exterral sore, in consequence of the bones becoming
carious 01 rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries,
incret.se 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
with white swelling, and having applied every reme
dy recommended by the most eminent physicians
within mv reach without success, 1 at length procured
one jug of Dr Judkins' Patent Specific Ointment, and
made the application according to the directions ac
companying the ointment, and slate, for the oenefit
of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect
cure was effected My son has enjoyed good health
ever since. 1 have no doubt that to the Ointment alone
he is indebted; for nothing else was used for more
than nine months before the application of the Dint

Mr. C Hersions—l deem it proper to state, for the
benefit of the public, that, several years since, two of
my children were affected with scald hea t of an inve
terate character. My family physician, Dr John T.
Wilson, of Leesburg,’ Va who was very skilful and ju
dicious in his practice, in vain endeavored by every
means to effect a cure. At length Judkins* Ointment
was applied, and the affection was permanently reliev
ed. Very respectfully, your obedient servant,
L. P- W. Balch.
From the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Con
gress, dated
w ashirotor, January 22, 1829.
Sir_Ithasbeenmy wish, fora considerable time,
to communicate to you the good effect with which 1
have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins.
and which I now understand is mule and sold by
agents appointed by yourself, I have applied this
Ointment during the last three years to every species
of tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure
in every instance. 1 consider it the most decided and
efficient remedy in ail cases of tumor, be the cause
whatit may; and 1 have found nothing so good for
wounds of any description It may be proper to
add, that the cure of a tumor called white swelling,
given over by the most distinguished physicians as in
curable, and whichthey decided would, withoutampu
ration, prove tatalto the patient, was, under my imme
diate notice, effected by the use of Judkins’ Ointment,
and the patient is in fine health His limb affected by
the tumor being restored to a perfect state of sound
ness. a Iso that the leg of an aged man which had been
wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur
face from the knee to the foot, and which, for more
than two years, had been considered incurable, was ef
fectually cured by the application of Judkins’ Oint
ment. I mention these two cases, whichfellunder my
immediate notice and management, as a decided evi
dence of the efficacy ofthis remedy in cases oftumur
and ofulcerss 1 have expe.ienced, as decidedly, the
good effect ofthis remedy in the cure of Felons, and
of every species of fresh wound. It seems to me that
any one who wll observe on the operation of this Oint
ment, must be satisfied as to its beneficial effect. lean
with the utmostconfidence recommend the use ofthis
valuable remedy, lam, sir, very respectfully,

Doctor S. H. P. Lee, New London, Conn. ~
Dear Sir—It'is now upwards of twenty years that I
have used your New London Ddious 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 m eve
ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you
bad 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 York 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
respact. Finding those I had without this test, 1 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 l
came to the Messrs Keerls*, who assured me they had
them direct from you. 1 procured a box, and on using
them, found the Bame effects from them I had always
experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my
self in possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that
that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this
information.
iXj* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu
rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser ha9
only to examine the bill of directions covering each
box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im
mediately under my printed name, they are genuine,
and prepared by me; but if ohly the printed name is
affixed, they arc spurious, and to be avoided.

conviction is, that man is subject to one only r*jfi
Diatom*—that is, TO THE IMPURITY OFTH&
BLOOD, -from whence springs every comply 4
can possibly assail his complicated frame; and thiv ,
is the perpetual struggle of this vital, pure stream 0!
life, (the gift of Almighty power) to disencunr.be. \i
self of its viscous, acrid humours, with which it hash,
come commixed, through the negligence of parent,
the ignorance or maltreatment of the Doctors; or tl
vicious or gormandizing propensities of us all.
This valuable Medicine, being composed oni; 01
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted
on oath, as containing not one particle of inercur'ui
mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un
congenial to the nature of man, and therefore destruc
tive to the human frame,) is found to he perfect!;
harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pi as*.,;
and benign in it> operation, and at the same time the
most searching out the root of every complaint, bo'v.
ever deep, and of performing a cure, that was eve*
offered to the world. This wonderful effect, toe, i:
produced by the least trouble to the patents, h
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, &r, j
being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, oi
exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the fear o'
catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any mv
different from their accustomed habit9.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot betaken,',
excess Kxperience, which is the touchstone of all
human knowledge, has long borne testimony to ,1k*
fact; and extensive use of them has already vtrilic-j
its truth in this country.
These medicines cure by purging; and yet the v
the feeble, the irfirm, the nervous, the delicate i t
in a few days strengthened by their operation, bee-1
they clear the body of its bad humours, and in\>vi-.b!\
procure sound sleep. They are the salest and c.'
efficacious menicine to take to sea; preventing ecu:

Extract of a Letter to Or. Moai.
Sih: The motive which has induced me to writetii
letter to you, is, that I might be instrumental in the
recommendation of Morrison’s Universal \ egettbl
Medicines to the afflicted, which, by the Divine bie^s
ing. has cured me of the Scarlet Fever. My ca:c
as follows: Whilst returning from Washington to .Alex
andria, I was taken very ill, which obliged me, on n->
arrival, to retire suddenly to bed, but could not sleep,
and the next day my throat became so much inflame,
that 1 could scarcely swallow; and my face, breast,a
body, presented evident symptoms of 'he great d*:
ger 1 was in, and I knew not what to do; Cab melt
Mercury I abhorred as poison, and therefor- dtsir*
no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother, v
had experienced th-* good effect of the Hygeia-i Fils
in a case or two of her own, most strenuously advist
me to try their virtue, which, with reluctance. I con
sented to, and commenced by taking eight No. 1 ptl ■
at night, and eight No. 2 the next morning and co>
tinued taking, increasing daily, morning and tvenir i,',
until I took sixteen No 2 at a time, whienweredi:
solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat, I C'-u'i
not otherwise 9wallow them. 1 confess the dose imde
me feel somewhat qualmish, £*c ; but the pills and dr
powders, of which 1 took one or two tea-spoonsfuli a
day, operated well, and the final result was, ihat I !-J
into a sound sleep, of which 1 had been deprived, xr.fl
the next morning awoke in a state ol perspiration, freed
from fever, cool and comfortable, and my reason I‘or
1 had been doanged in mind) returned; and on He
9tn day from the time 1 was first taken, I left w\ room,
and have ever since enjoyed better health than 1 wd
before You have my leave to make what use ai
please of this. 1 wish you success, and ain, sir. ou
obedient friend, MARY ANN FOWl.hh.
