and are continually gaining upon public con““e”
The Botanical Drops have beeo succe«^uHy_admin
istered for many years, as a thorough remedy
well known and prevalent class of uiveterate diseases
which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he
teditary predisposition in the patient, and generally
appear under the various and distressing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St. Anthony i Fire,
Fever Sores. White Swellings, Scurvy, Fool and Ob
stinate Ulcer*. Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and
Venereal Taint.
Io the last mentioned condition of the system, the
Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk

preveot the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
reditary disease on his offspring.
Dr. Relfe’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 witnessed the ef*
ficaev of this article, had the candor recently to ack
nowledire to the proprietor, that he considered it the
best medicine known, for the complaints for wh'c 1 ‘
is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at
the head of the whole c'ass of such remedies.

Consumption!
Asthma! ^ C atarrh!
IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of Civilised society, Consumption
takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life; vet i his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its
earlier stages. It is only when neglected thst it sr
rivesat the terrific maturity which so often baffles the
sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough
is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary coil
sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis
tration of simple siul 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 hectio fever; shn
veiled extremeties, and general cmaci«.*ion of the
whole bod); prostration of strength; fiushed checks,
swollen feet and legs* and at last, »" the foll po»ses
.ion of the mental faculties, and while hope allU whis
pers her Battering tale—cold extremities, and a pre
mature death. . . , ,
For the various stages of this complaint, one of the
moat approved remedies eves yet discovered is
d£ RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and
innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been tar advanc

mination of the disorder.
As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine
ment, they niay be administered with confidence and
aafetv to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled
.uccesa 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

BTOEIANISM.
THE following teatimoniala of the auperior efficacy
of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of
our diaeasea, apeak in a language which roust carry
conviction to the mind* of the most skeptical:—
Baowir Usivemitt, Dec. 25, 1831.
To Mr. Samuel Young. Agent for the Hygeian Vege
table Universal Medicines, for the Slate of Rhode
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 Borne of my fellow-men, who may
be afflicted with a similar disease.
My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption,
and that my real condition may be explicitly under
stood, 1 state, in connexion with the relation of the
cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep
l tember, 1832, 1 caught a severe cold, which settled on
my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week,
with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my
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 days; 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
reNpse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower
than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill,
and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Tims,
months after the first sttack, a tubercle” [small ul
cer] broke in the Inngs, after which I spat blood, one
day. 1 continued to decline twomonths longer, when
I obtained the Hygeian Medicinea. I had now been
unable to sit up a whole day, for four months and a
half. My feet were cold and lifeless, aleep 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, 8tc. Sic. Such was my
condition, when I first became acquainted with the
j Hygeian Medicinea I commenced taking the medi
! cine*. four pills at a dose, and increased the dose dai
ly, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten
days, iny sppetite 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
I took the medicine sixty days regularly every night,
averaging about ten pills at a dose{ the greatest num
ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, 1
took about four doses a week, until I had taken about
thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored
to health. After I commenced the Hvg 'ian, I took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, 1
was able to resume my studies in college, where I
have since remained without any recurrence of the
disease. Hitherto 1 have been convalescents and it
my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain 1
have less pains, and am more free from temporary
sickness; than at any time since my earliest recollec
tion. Vour9, with respect,

Dear Sir—I wish to state that my sister, after severe
suffering, an.l employing a medical man three years,
wa3 relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines.
Her complaint was a violent pain and aoreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her >s on
one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain
was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so sec
vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three
■ ears. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers o If, and
perhaps, over exertion with it. After using • 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, youra truly,

Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834
Injustice to Dr. M.. her medical adviser, when he
heard her improvement in health, he recommended
perseverence in the uac of he medicines.
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 of man, and therefore deatruc
tive to the human frame.) ia found to be perfectly
harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un
der every stage of human suffering; the most pleasant
and benign in its operation, and at the same time the
moat searching out the root of every complaint, how
ever deep, and of perfotming a cure, that was ever
offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is
produced by the leaat 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, or
exhaustion of bodily sirength, and without the fear of
catching cold, or attention to dreas or diet, in any way
different from their accustom* d habits.
These pills cure all cases, and cannot betaken to
excess Experience, which is the touchstone of all
human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the
fact; and extensive use of them has already verified
its truth in trua country.
These medicinea cure by purging: and yet the weak, |
the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, sre
in a few days strengthened by their operation, beca ise j
