valuable preparation, the merits of which have
been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted
testimony
DR. RELFE’S
03* Botanical Drops!
are every year increasing their long established repu
- tation. Thev have outlived many rival preparations,
and are continually gaining upon public confidence..
The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin
istered for mini' 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*
reditarv 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, 9ca!d 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 otTspring.
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 of the external surface;
and are one of the beat 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
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 of the whole class of such remedies

BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE.
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every
respect, and has, for many sears past, given universal
satisfaction wherever it ha> been used. ...
The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and
other deleterious ingredients, which too frequently
enter the composition of tooth powders in common
use, and it whitens the enamel of ihe 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 Dentrifice removes
discolorations, and restoros the beautiful native white
ness of the enamel. As ita application braces and
strengthens ihe Gums, it secures to them their healthy
and florid hue, and, by rftnoving all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. Prici 50 cents

SHEPHERD'S PATENT SPECIFIC
OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins’,)
Prepared by C. HERSTONS, near Frederick
town, Maryland.
Kichhohd. Va- July 15, 1830.
THE public will be pleased to understand that 1 was
the original discoverer of Judkins’ Ointment, and
sole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817,
until the expiration of the samei out, having connect
ed myself with Dr. Judkins in the commencement, 11
permitted the Ointment to bear his name. Tbe term
of the patent having expired on the 26m June, 1 have
made an improvement in the same, and taxen out a pa
tent thereon. N SHbPtILKD.

lie by x spurious article, bearing tbe uame of *• Jud

tutliurity granted to him in his letter* patent, now to i
;all the Ointment after his own name. Henceforth it j
will be known by the name of 1
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT
MENT, (formerly Judkins'.)
When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had, in several instances, experienced ita good ettec *,
l sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what
cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the i int
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I conclu e
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 the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases,
some of which have so long baffle J the skill of me
dical science: . .
1st White swellings of every description*
2d Sore legs and ulcers of long standing,
3J Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularly those j
hardened tumors in woman’s breasts, which oftentimes J
terminate in ulceiated cancers*
4th Felons* or what some people know by the name
of catarrhs, of every description.
5th Kheumatic pains of the joints*
6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or in
whatever part situate; .
7th Tetters of all kinds. In this complaint the pa-j
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the pari
out of water;
8th Chilblains or partsaflected by frost. 1
It is also one of the best remedies for hums and ;
scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out m a
short time. I
For inflamed-women’s breasts anj glandular swel j
lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the j
I medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap
plication®, (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 cutt-d sores of many years stand
! ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to Leal the
exteu-al sore, in consequence of the bone* becoming
| carious ot rotten, it will stop the progress of the carie9,
increise the quantity of discharge, remove the oflfen
' sive smell, and ease the pains.
It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, mi applies
| tion of forty-eight hours

bad made your lortune, and abandoned their ma.iufac- [

Sie—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com
pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a
brief statement of e cure, which, I think, free rived
from the Hvgeian 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.
Mv complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption,
and that my real condition may be explicitly under
stood, I state, in connexion with the relation of the
cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep
tember, 1812,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on
ray 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, haying 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 e decline 1
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. Hut
reUpse 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 oDiamedine nygeiiin hcuuiuci. i i»»u huw uwh
unable to sit up a whole day, 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, .tic. 6ic. Such was my
condition, when I first became acquainted with the
llygeian Medicines 1 commenced taking the medi
cines, four pills at u dose, and 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 ol 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, l
took about four doses a week, until I had taken about
thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored
to health. After l commenced the Ityg. ian, 1 took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I
was able to resume my studies in college, where I
have since remained without any recurrence of the
disease Ilith'Tto I have been convalescent; and if
my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I
have less pains, and am more free from temporary
sickness* than at any time since my earliest recollec
tion. Yours, with respect,

Dear Sir—I w ish to state that my-sister, after severe
suffering, and employing a m -dical man three years,
was relieved oy the use of the Universal Medicines,
tier complaint was a violent pam and soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her os. on
one side had turned in, actually deformed The pain
was a violent burning p..in, almost intolerable; so.see
verc, that she could not sit up for upwards of three
years- It was occasioned by over-lacing h*TS e> If, and
perhaps, over exertion with it After using a few,
doses of No. 1 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 1 have
no objection to thi<> case being made public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly,
