HOLLOWAY'S PlLLS.—Extract of a letter from Mr. David
Simpson of Collingham, dated March 14th, 1855. To Professor
Holloway,—Sir,-1 feel it my duty towards you and the public,
to inform you of a most remarkable cure of Dropsy by the use of
your Pills. My daughter was a sufferer for years, and when
under medical treatment, she had upwards of thirteen pints of
water taken away without obtaining any permanent relief; since
then she commenced taking your Pills, which, I am satisfied has
been the sole means of effecting a lasting cure, as she is now
perfectly well.
THE following extraordinary cures without medicine of
indigestion, (dyspepsia) flatulency, constipation, nervous, bilious
and liver complaints, cough, asthma, consumption and debility
effected by Du Barry's delicious health restoring Revalenta
Arabica Food, are not the least remarkable :—From the Dowager
Countess of Castlestuart. Cure 52,612.—Rosstrevor, County of
Down, Ireland, December 9th, 1854. The Dowager Countess of
Castlestuart feels induced, in the interest of suffering humanity,
to state that Du Barry's excellent Revalentia Arabica Food has
cured her, after all medicines had failed, of indigestion, bile,
great nervousness and irritability of many years standing. This
food deserves the confidence of all sufferers and may be con-
sidered a real blessing. Enquiries will be cheerfully answered.
—Cure No. 49,832. Fifty years indescribable agony from dyspep-
sia, nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency, spasms,
sickness at the stomach and vomiting, have been removed by
Du Barry's excellent food. Maria Jolly, Wortham Ling, near
Diss, Norfolk.

IMPORTANT CAUTION against the fearful dangers of spurious
imitations .—The Vice-Chancellor Sir William Page Wood granted
an Injunction on the 10th March 1854, against Alfred Hooper
Nevin, for imitating "Du Barry'&itevalenta Arabica Food."

This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of pro-
fessional criticism and empirical hostility, treats in a plain and
sympathising manner on the various affections arising. from
excitement and debility; and to invalids suffering from their con-
sequences it will be, found invaluable as a Monitor and Guide, '

return to health secured.

PAINS IN THE BACK, . GRAVEL,

NERVOUSNESS, DEBILITY, &c.
DR. DE ROOS' C 0 NI POUND RENA PILLS (as their
name Renal, or the Kidneys, indicates) have been long established
as a most safe and speedy remedy for the above dangerous
complaints, Discharges of any kind, and Diseasesof the Kidneys
and organs therewith connected generally, &c.,which, if neglected,
frequently end in a lingering painful death. For Depression of
Spirits, Excitement, Dislike of Society, Incapacity for Study or
Business, Loss of Memory, Confusion, Giddiness, Blood to the
Head, Drowsiness, Sleep without refreshment, Nervousness, and
even Insanity itself, they are unequalled. Possessing tonic pro.
perties, they agree with the most delicate stomach, strengthen
the digestive organs, increase the appetite, and improve the gene.
ral health. They require neither confinement nor change of diet,
and in three days will effect a cure when mercury and all other
dangerous medicines have failed. One trial will convince the most
sceptical of their surprising properties.
Mr. Letellier, Etruria, Potteries.—" Your Renal Pills have done
wonders with me and others to whom I have recommended them."

H. C., Post-office, Stafford.—" Your Renal Pills are a most
splendid medicine."
„T. Murphy, 70, Upper Sterin-street, Dublin.—" I never met the
like of them before, they are really a surprising medicine."
W. Chartres, Esq., Newport, Mayo.—" I have a degree of mental
energy and vigour such as I did not feel these two years. Lily
memory is wonderfully improved; so that I can recollect all the
events of each day with the greatest degree of clearness. It is
astonishing bow 1 got out of such awful sufferings, but I think I
owe it altogether to the use of your Pills."
PERSONS GOING ABROAD, CAPTAINS and OTHERS, can-
not store more important articles of health than the above, which,
by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, and tranquillizing the
Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so prevalent
abroad, as also Sea Sickness and other complaints incidental to
long voyages and irregular living. No Emigrant's Chest can
be properly furnished without them, for when far removed from
medical aid, they will find in these Pills a never-failing restorative.
IMPORTANT.-The immense demand for the above has induced
an unscrupulous person to imitate them, and to assume the name
of De Roos. Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for Dr.
DE Roos' PILLS, have attempted to foist upon the public the spu-
rious Medicines or trash of their own compounding ,from which they
obtain a larger profit. The GENUINE have the words, " WALTER
DE ROOS, LONDON," in white letters on a re ground, pr inted
in the Stamp affixed to each box; by special d direction of Her
Majesty's Honourable Commissioners, to protect the Public from
Fraud, and to imitate which is felony.
May be obtained thrbugh all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lid.,
2s. 9d., 4s. 6d., Us., and 335. per Box, with full directions for
use; or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr. DE
ROOS, 10, BERN ERS-STREET, OXFORD-ST., LONDON, they

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN
SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most extraordinary
and valuable Medicines in the world. Its superiority over other
preparations of like character, made in this country, arises from
the mode of manufacture, and the advantage of obtaining and
working the root in its green and fresh state. The root, when
brought to this country, is dry, vapid, and almost tasteless, its
virtues and juices having all evaporated; while it often becomes
mouldy, musty, and partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for

use. ENGLISH TESTIMONY.
We give a few of the many communications we have received
since we have been in England, from those who have experienced
the great benefits of using this celebrated medicine. They must
have some weight in convincing the public of its great value.
49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. 1, 1851.
Gentlemen,—l have much pleasure in testifying to the nume-
rous thanks I have received from various persons who have taken
Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of whom will be
happy to give you testimonials should you require them. I am
doubly pleased to be able to speak to the good effects I have seen
myself produced by the Sarsaparilla; for I must confess that,
although 1 was not prejudicial, I was rather sceptical as to its
virtues, which I would not have believed it possessed, bad I not
seen it.—l am, your obedient servant, JOHN JAMIESON.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co.

FURTHER IMPORTANT TESTIMONY.—GREAT CURE OF PILES.
17, Phelps-street, Walworth, Feb. 22, 1853.
Gentlemen,—l was afflicted with the blind Piles, and was under
medical treatment for three months, but obtained no relief.
Hearing of Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I obtained
some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumulated corrupt
matter copiously discharged, and I almost immediately obtained
relief. I still continued its use for a time, and not only found
relief, but a cure, and am now free from pain. I most sincerely
recommend it to all who are similarly affected. Wm. HYDE.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co.

8, Ashley-terrace, City-road, London, June 9, 1852.
GENTLEMEN Please send me again three quart bottles of Old
Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla: I feel much better, and the general
system greatly improved, and I hope I shall be all right with the
three now ordered. —Yours very respectfully, JOHN W. MUNCH.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co., 373, Strand.
William Wearn, 1, High-street, Southsea, writes, " I have taken
several bottles of Old Townsend's Sarsaparilla, and derived benefit
from it." Rev. J. W. Wilson, Wesleyan Minister, at Biggleswade,
writes, June 7, 1852, " I have derived much benefit ,from taking
Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla."

FEMALE COMPLAINTS.-GREAT CURE OF NERVOUSNESS.
London, June 10, 1852.

Gentlemen,—My wife has been long afflicted with a nervous
complaint, from which she suffered severely. Able physicians and
many remedies were tried in vain, but I am happy to inform you
that she has entirely recovered by using a few bottles of Old Dr.
Townsend's Sarsaparilla. J. It. PETERSON.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and CO.
PIMPLES, BLOTCHES, ERUPTIONS, &C.
The same may be said of these as in the cure of the severer
chronic maladies ; the Sarsaparilla and the Ointment will effec-
tually wipe off all disagreeable eruptions, and render the surface
clear and beautiful. Ladies troubled with rough, pimply skin, or
a gross, masculine surface, will do well to use these 'Medicines, if
they wish clear, delicate, and transparent complexions. Nothing
can exceed their efficacy in this respect.
CURE OF A DISORDERED STOMACH.
Lower Grosvenor-street, Grosvenor square, July 31, 1851.
Gentlemen,—l beg to inform you that I have been using your
Medicine, Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, for a complaint in my sto-
mach, from which I suffered a long time, and I am happy to say
it has cured me. I shall to answer any letter of inquiry, as your
Sarsaparilla is worthy of all the recommendation I can give it.
Messrs. Pomeroy and CO. JAMES FORSYTH.
SICK HEADACHE—A CASE OF MANY YEARS' STANDING.

The following is one of those cases arising from a disordered state
of the functions, which affect the whole system, and bring on some
of the most distressing sufferings. This lady has suffered more
or less for ten years, and has now entirely recovered by the use of
Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. " Berkeley. square, Jan. 15, 1853.
" Messrs. Pomeroy and Co.—! have used your Dr. Townsend's
Sarsaparilla for sick headache and general debility, arising from
a disordered state of my eystem, and am happy to inform you
that it has completely restored me to former health and strength.
I experience a degree of comfort, buoyancy of spirits, and renewed
strength, which I have not known for ten years. This great benefit
alone induces me to write an acknowledgment. Disliking my
name in full to go before the public, I give my initials only.
