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 clas3 of inveterate diseases
which originste from a vitiated habit of body, or an he
Mditary predisposition in the patient, and generally
appear under the various and diatreaaing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, 3t Anthony's Fire,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Fonl and Ob
stinate Ulcers. Sore Legs and F,yes, 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 j
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
reditary disease on his offspring. i
Dr. Relfe's Botanical Drops are succeaafully 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-d the ef
ficacy of tikis article, had the candor recently to ack
now ledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the
best medicine known, for the complaints for which it
is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at
the head o! the whole class of such remedies.

This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every

I'he Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and

enter the composition of too’.h powders in common

doing it the least injury. The regular use ot tins ad

the accumulation ot tartar, operates as the best pre

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

accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. I’ric* 5U cents

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC
I OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins’,)
Prepared by C. HERSTONS, near Frederick
town, Maryland.
tticBMoao. Va- July 15, 1830.
THE public will be pleased to understand that I was
the original discoverer of Judkins' Ointment, and
sole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817,
until the expiration of the samei but, having connect
ed myself with Dr. Judkins in tbe commencement, I
permitted the Ointment to bear hit name. The term
of the patent having expired on tbe 26th June, 1 have
made au improvement in the same, and taken oat a pa
tent thereon. N. SHEPHERD.
GO* Imposition having been practised upon the pub 1
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of “ Jud- 1
kins* Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself of the 1
uithority granted to liim in bis letters patent, now to
-all 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,
[ sent it to several physicians, with instructions in wnat
cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the 0'n**
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded
that the Ointpient 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 wouid be oblitera
ted Under these considerations, l secured the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases,j
some of which have so long baffled the skill of me
dical science:
1st White swellings of every description;
2d Sore legs and ulcers of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular turners, particularlythose
hardened tumors in women's breasts, which oftentimes
terminate in ulcetated cancers;
4th Felons; or whatsome people know by thename
of catarrhs, of every description.
5th Rheumatic painsofthe joints;
6th Sprains and bruises ofevery description,or in
whatever part situate;
7th Tetters of all kinds. In this complaint the pa
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
outof water;
8th Chilblains or partsafleeted by frost.
It is also one of the beat remedies for burns and
scabls. It cases the pain and draws the fire out in •
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 Ointment has cured sores of many years stand
ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal the
external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming
carious oi rotten, it will atop the progress of the caries,
increise 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

have used your New London Bdious Pills in my fami |

most every description of disease, and believe they §a»
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 j
and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve
ry inatance of using them, I oegan to conclude that you
bad made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac
ture to mercenary and unfaithful bands. 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
respect. Finding those I 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 1
esme to the Messrs Keerls’, wbo assured me they had
them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using
them, found the same effects from them 1 bsd alwsys
experienced, and am to much rejoiced on finding my i

that I cannot, io justice, refrain from giving you this j

OCy To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and apu- j
rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has '
only to examine the bill of directions covering each

and prepared by met but if ontx the printed name is

HTGEIANISM. j
THE following testimonials of the superior efficacy
of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of
l>ur diseases, speak in a language which must carry
conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:—
Bbowh UntvsRSiTT, Dec. 25, 1853.
To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Higeian Vege
table Universal Medicines, for the State of Ilhode
Island
Sin—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com
pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a
brief statement of a cure, which, I think, I received
from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the
same the more cheerfully,- because thereby, perhaps,
I may be useful to some of my fellow-men, who may
be afflicted with a similar disease.
My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption,
and (hat my real condition may be explicitly under
stood,! state, in connexion with the relation of the
1 cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sop
i temher, 1832,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on
! my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week,
wilts a fever, attended with considerable cough\ my
j cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining
| my health; when, after about three weeks, in the
; course of the night, having returned the evening be*
fore in usual health, I found myself bleeding at the
lungs. I had not. to-my knowledge, received any hurt
or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut
ed. I spat blood, occasionally, for four da) s; it left
me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap*
petite, and withal, very weak
A few weeks determined that I was in a decline I
received the attention of the most skilful Physicians,
who often seemed to check the progress of the dis
ease* and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. But
rehpse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower
than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill,
and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus,
months after the first attack, a " tubercle” [small ul
cer] broke in the Inngs, after which I spat blood, one
day. I continued to decline twomonths longer, when
I obtained the Hygeian Medicines. 1 had now been
• unable to sit up a whole dsy, for four months and a
half. My feet were cold and lifeless, sleep unsound,
cold night sweats constant, tongue furred, pulse in the
afternoon from seventy-five to one hundred per mi
nute, food produced great distress, appetite very
poor, pain in the breast directly opposite the heart,
attended with some cough, fcc. he. Such was my
' condition, when I first became acquainted with the
i Hygeian Medicines I commenced taking the medi*
\ cines, four pills at a dose, an-.l increased the dose dai
ly, one up to the number of twelve. In about ten
days, my appetite became good, and food produced
no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing,
and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease
had nearly all disappeared
1 took the medicine sixty days regularly every night,
averaging about ten pills at a tiie greatest ntim
I ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, I
! took about four doses a week, until I had taken about
j thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored
| to health. After ! commenced the Hyg*-ian, I took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I
' wss abl** to resume my »tu.li--s in college, where I
i h.ive smee remained without any recurrence of the
[disease. Hitherto I have been convalescent; and ii
I my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I
I tiave less pains, and am mure free from temporary
! sickness* than at any time since my earliest recollec*
j tion. Yours, with respect,
HORACE T. LOVE.

Dear Sir—I wish to state that my sister, after -evere
suffering, and employing a medical man three years,
was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines.
Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in Iter
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her .is on
one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see
vere, that she could not ait up for upwards of three
years. It was occasioned by over .lacing hers & If, and
perhaps, over exertion with it. After using a few,
doses of No, I and 2, alternately, about eight pills for
a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is now restored to health; and I have
no objection to this case being made public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, your* truly,
H. DYER.
Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834
In justice to Dr. M.. her medical adviser, when he
heard her improvement in health, lie recommended
perseverence in the use of he medicines.
This valuable Medicine, being composed only of
vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted,
on oath, as containing not tine particle of mercurial,
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 be perfectly
harmless to the most tender age or weakest frsme, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pi -asant
and benign in it< operation, and at the same time the
most searching out the root of every complaint, how
ever deep, and of performing a cure, that was ever
offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is
produced by the least trouble to the patients, by
merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and
being called n few extra times to the purposes of eva
cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or
exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the fear of
