ASTOUNDING CURE OF SCROFULA.

1 Wm. Pogue, of Emyvale (a man well known in that neighbour-
hood), was afflicted for three years with Scrofula on the left arm :
there were four ulcers which discharged continuously, and reduced
the poor fellow to a mere skeleton. He was for a long time under
the care of one medical gentleman, and consulted many others,
but derived no benefit whatever. At last he bad recourse to
Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and by persevering with these
remedies, in the course of eight weeks his arm was completely
well, and his health thoroughly reestablished.—The truth of this
statement can be verified by many of the inhabitants of Emyvale,
and particularly by Mr. Patrick McKenna, druggist, of that place.

ASTONISHING CURE OF AN ULCERATED LEG AFTER
THREE HOSPITALS FAILED!
Copy of a Letter from Mr. Iti. Hare, of Exeter, dated
22nd ,September, 1854.
To ProfessorHolloway,—A man named Wm. Hall, in the employ
of Air. C. Sclater, nurseryman, of this city, has desired me to rnske
known to you the benefit he has received from using your Oint-
ment and Pills. For three years this poor man suffered terrible
with a severely ulcerated leg, and during this time he sought
relief at Guy's, King's College, and the Devon and Exeter Hos-
pitals, and was finally told by a Surgeon that amputation of the
limb was necessary to save his life ; however, instead of this
advice, he immediately had recourse to your Ointment and Pills,
and they have done him more good than all the other medicines
put together, he being now able to follow his occupation, and
rapidly gaining health and strength.—l remain, &c.,
(Signed) WILLIAM HARE.

most of the following cases :

HOW
TO PROLONG LIFE AND ENJOY IT.—
THE GREAT PURIFYING AND STRENGTHENING
MEDICINE.
What though the sun in beauty shine,
And you have countless hoards of wea!th ;
What though the world—all, all was thine,
If you but want the blessing, Health.
Dr. DE ROOS' PILULE VITA:, or VEGETABLE LIFE PILLS.
A universal Restorative for both Sexes and all Ages, concocted
solely from the VEGETABLE kingdom; they may be administered
to the youngest Child, or to the most delicate Invalid, by merely
regulating the dose according to the age and strength of the per-
son. They remove all Disorders and Pains in the Stomach and
Bowels, as Costiveness, Spasms, Loss of Appetite, Sick Headache,
Fulness after Meals, Indigestion, Liver Complaints, Inactivity of
the Bowels, Listlessness, Heat, Pain, and Jaundiced Appearance;
and while they act thus salutarily, they must of necessity increase
the strength of the Patient. Headache, Giddiness, Singing in the
Ears, Fluttering of the Sight, and other Heavy Drowsy Sensations
—the forerunners of many fatal diseases,—as Apoplexy, Paralytic
Strokes, Epilepsy, &c., are effectually warded off by a few doses
of these Pills. They also produce sound refreshing Sleep, a keen
Appetite, and possess extraordinary efficacy in invigorating the
system, and imparting a pleasing serenity of mind. They are
unequalled as a Family Medicine; in few instances, where occa-
sionally employed in Families and Schools, will other assistance
be needed. _ . . _

For Females they are truly excellent, removing, Headaches,
Depression r.f 13;22i”0,c of bight, Nervousness, Dimples,
Sallowness, and giving a healthy juvenile bloom to the Complexion.
Ladies, however delicate, will find them particularly beneficial
both before and after confinement. For Elderly People they are
the most comfortable blediciae that can be taken.

Persons going Abroad, Captains, and others, cannot 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. _ _

Mr. Smith, St. Ives: "Since taking your Pills I have not once
required the services of a medical man, and feel satisfied this
would be the case generally, if people were not so ►much governed
by prejudice."—T. Webster, Esq., Slea ford, near Melton Mowbray:
"Having read your advertisement, I felt assured your Pills would
be ot use to some of my poorer neighbours. 1 have had 12 boxes,
and they have derived great benefit from taking them. I shall
continue to recommend your valuable Pills to all my friends."—
Mr. Edwin Highley, 4, Mount-street, Halifax: "1 find your Pilulw
Vita; a very pleasant medicine in removing headache."—Maent-
wrog, Tan-y.Bwlch, North Wales: "Mr. Warner's compliments
to Dr. De Roos, and he finds no medicine do him so much good
as his Pilulte Vitae."

IMPORTANT.—Some unprincipled Vendors, when asked for Dr.
DE ROOS' Pills, have attempted to foist upon the Purchaser
other Medicines, or trash of their own compounding, from which
they obtain a larger profit. The c ENcis F. have the words
" WALTER. DE ROOS, LONDON," in white letters on the red
ground printed in the stamp, affixed to each Box, by special
direction of Her Majesty's Honourable Commissioners, to pro-
tect the Public from Fraud, and to imitate which is Felony.
May be obtained through all Medicine Vendors, at Is. lid.,
2s. Ott., 4s. lid., Ils., and 335. per Box, with Directions for Use,
&c., or by enclosing Post-office Order or Stamps to Dr. DE
ROOS, to, Berner's-street, Oxford-street, London, they will be
gent per return. .

allowed a liberal commission, may make a handsome addition
to their income, by selling these Pills, which are very justly be-
coming a favourite Medicine with the Public.

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. I, Itsl.
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 I was not prejudicial, I was rather sceptical as to its
virtues. which I would not have believed it possessed, had I not
seen it.-1 ,

FURTHER INIPORTANT 'TESTIMONY.-ORNATCURE OF PILES.

17, Phelps-street. NVa !worth, Feb. 22, 1853.
Gentlemen,-1 was afflicted with the blind Piles, and was under
medical treatment for three months, but obtained no relief.
Hearing of Old 1)r. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I obtained
some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumulate, corrupt
matter copiously discharged, and 1 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
or. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. I feel much better, and the general
system greatly improved, and I hope 1 shall be all right with the
three now ordered.--Yours very respectfully, JOHN W. MUNCH.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co., 373, Strand.
William Wearn, I, High-street, Southsea, writes," I have taken
several bottles °IOW 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."
