ccr 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 manv years, as a thorough remedy for that
well known and prevalent clas9 of inveterate diseases
which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he
reditary predisposition in the patient, and general y
_ appear under the various and distressing shapes ot
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony s Fire,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foul and Ob
stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, 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 .ailed, and thus
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
reditary disease on his offspring
Dr. Kelfe’s Botanical Drops a^v successfully used m
cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruntions on
the skin—and other diseases of the external surface;
and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics
known, to free the systefn 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 the
best medicine known, for th^ complaints tar which it
is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at
the head of the whole class of such remedies.

BRITISH ANTISEPTIC xiENTRIFICE
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in 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 frequen y
enter the composition of tooth powders m common
use, an 1 it whitens tl»e enamel of the terth without
doing it the least injury. The regular use of tins ad
mired powder, by purifying the moiah and preventing
ih« accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre
ventive of the Tooth Ache The Dentnhce 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 heaithy
and florid hue, and, by removing all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. Pric.* 50 cents

Consumption!
Asthma! X Catarrh!
IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of civilized society, Consumption
taxes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life; yet his dreadful disorder iseasil) overcome in its
earlier stages. It is on!y when neglected that it ar
rives at the terrific maturity which 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 <>f simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive
symptoms-oppression of the breast; greenish and
bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri
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—cold extremities, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stages of this complaint, one of the
most approved remedies ever vet discovered is
DR. RELFE'S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and /et equally safe and
innocent preparation, ha* effected thorough ami rapid
cur< s upon patients supposed tohu^e been far advanc
edit a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit,
ed the appearances winch usually indicate a fatal ter
mination of he disorder.
As ihe Pills require in ordinary cases no confine
ment, they may 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 in reviving
the emaciated victim from the bed of disease, and re
storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and
activity.
Price #1 for who/e boxes of 30 pills, and 50 cents for
half do. of 12 pills, with directions.
Debilitated Females!
E comp.aiou peculiar lo the leuiatc purl of the
JL community,- have been long successfully treated
by the administration of the Aromatic Pills, originally
prescribed and compounded by Dr Kelfe They
cleanse the blood from those disorders of the female
constitution, for which the pills are an effectual speci
tic; they restore a free circu’a ion, reform the irregular
operations oi tue saugu icrwus system, *u.» icu»* t*ic
dUortir-red habits. The proprietor’s confidence in the
superior excellence of this equally innocent and pow
erful preparation, is founded on the most decisive tes
timony from many restored paiients lie can assure
this portion of the public, that when
DR. RELFE'S AROM M IC 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 wiii find the pills equally useful, ex
cept in cases of paegnancy, when they must not be
taken; neither must they be taken bv persons of hec
tic or consumfAive habits. They may be used success
fully by either men or women in all Hypochoudriac,
Hysteric or Vapourish disorders. In all cases of this
description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the
disordered system. Price $1 50 a box.

until the expiration of the same, but, having connect

permitted the Ointment to bear los name. •
of the patent having expired on the 26th June, I
made an improvement in the same, a s[|EpHERDf

When 1 firs* made and prepared this Ointment, and
had in several instances, experienced its good effects,
1 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 oftheprocew* ne
vertheless. it might be progated in tins adulterated si
1 tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origt

It is also one of the best remedies for burns and

For infiamed women’s breasts and glandular swel

Sir— My son having been afflicted for five years
with white swelling, and having applied every reme
dy recommended bv the most eminent physicians
within my reach without success, I at length np.cured
one jug of I)r Judkins* Patent Specific Ointment, and
mule the application according to the directions ac
companying the ointment, and state, for the benefit
of the affl ete J. that before one jug was used, a perfect
cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health
ever since. I have no doubt that tothe Ointment alone
he is indebted! for nothing else was used for more
than nine months before the application of tiie Dint

Wilson, of Leesburg, Va who was very skilful and ju

to communicate to you the good effect with which I
have used the Om'ment invented by a Mr. Judkins,
and which I now understand is made and sold by
agents appointed bv 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. I consider it the most decided and
efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause
wbatit 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 bv the most distinguished physicians as in
curable, and which they decided would, without ampu
tation, prove tatalto the patient, was, under my imme
diate notice, effected by the use of Judkins* Ointment,
and the patient is in fine health Him limb affected by

Extract of a Letter to Dr. Moat.
Sir: The motive which ha induced me to writeth*
letter to you, is, that 1 might be instrumental in the
recommendation of Morrison’s Universal \ petal.!*
Medicines to the afflicted, which, by the Divine bless
ing, bus cured me of the Scarlet Fever. Viy case
as follows: Whilst returning fr »m Washington to Alex
andria. 1 was taken very ill, which obliged me, on on
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, ami
body, presented evident symptoms of the great da;
ger I was in, and 1 knew not what to do; Calomel o;
Mercury I abhorred as poison, and therefore desi'’
no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother, u
had experienced the good effect of the Ilygeian l1. •
tn'a case or two of her own, most strenuously
me to try their virtue# which, with reluctance, I c
sented to, and commenced by taking eight No ! p. .s
at night, and eight No. 2 the next morning and cor.
tinued taking, increasing daily, morning and evening,
! until I took sixteen No. 2 at a time, which werea>
solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat, I cum!
not otherwise swallow them. I confess the dose rr
me feel somewhat qualmish, he •, but tl*e pill*and
powders, of which l took one or two tea-sj)o>>miu!i
day, operated well, and the final result whs, that Ik!
.nto a sound sleep, of which I had been deprived, v.
the next morning awoke in a state of perspiration,frtcl
from fever, cool and comfortable, and my reason (Hi
I had been deranged iit mind) returned; juio on'
9th day from the time 1 was first taken, 1 left my mot
and have ever since enjoyed better health than 1
before. You have my leave to make wh»tu<)
please of this. 1 wish you success, and s»m. sir,. V
