DR. RELFE’S
fl? Botanical Drops!
are every year increasing their long established repu
tation. They have outlived many rival preparations,
and are continually gaining upon public cn-inuence.
The B itanical Drops hare been successfully admin
istered for manv years, as a thorough remedy for that
well known and prevalent clast of inveterate diseases
which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he
reditary predisposition in the pstient, an l general y
appear under the various and distressing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, l.eprosv, St Anthony s Fire,
Fever Sores. White Swellings. Scurvy, Fool and Ob
stinate Ulcers. Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and
Venereal Taint. .
In the last mentioned condition >f the system, the
Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the '!**"
ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of »n he
reditary disease on his offspring.
Dr. Relfe's Botanical Drops are successfully used in
cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotchei —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

BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE.
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 frequently
enter the composition of tooth powders in common
use, an I it wh tens the enamel of the teeth without
doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad
mired powder, by purify ing the mouth and preventing
the accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre
ventive of the Tooth Ache I he Dentrifice removes
discolorations, ami 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, by removing all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. I’ric • 5U cents

Consumption!
Asthma! A* Catarrh!
[N that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of civilized society, Consumption
takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life; yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its
earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar
rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffles the
sagacitv of professional science- An obstinate cough
is the custom try forerunner of the pulmonary con
sumption Improper neglect in the timely adininis
tratinn of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive
■.ymptoma —oppression of the breastj greeni>h and
bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri
veiled exlremctics, and general emaciation of the
whole body; prostration of s'reugth; flushed cheeks;
swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the lull posses
non of the mental faculties, and while hope still whis
per* her fluttering tale—rold extiemitics, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stages of this complaint, one of the
most approved remedies ever vet discovered is
Dll. RELFB'5 ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and vet equally safe and
innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been far advunc
ed in a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit

mination of he disorder.
As the Fills require in ordinary cases no confine
meut, they niav 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; ami the proprietor can refer to
a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving
the emaciated victim Iroin the bed of disease, and re
storing him to the blessings ol* accustomed health and

Dear Sir—I wish to state that my sister, after severe
suffering, and employing a medical man three vein,
was re'ieved hy the use of the Universal Medicine*.
Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her a* on
one side had turned in, actmlly deformed. Tlie pain
was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; *o ice
vcie, that she could not sit up for upward* of three
years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers o If, »nd
perhaps, over exertion with it. After using * few,
doses of No. 1 an 1 2, alternately, about eight pilUfor
a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, site is now restored to health; and I h»»e
no objection to this case being made public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly,
