RUPTURES EFFECTUALLY CURED
WITHOUT A TRUSS.—DR. BARKER'S celebrated
REMEDY is protected by three patents, of England, Frame,
and Vienna; and from its great success in private practice is
now made known as a public duty through the medium of the
press. In every case of single or double rupture, in either sex,
of an' age, however bad or long standing, it is equally appli-
cable, effecting a cure in a few days, without inconvenience,
and will be hailed as a boon by all who have been tortured with
trusses. Sent roost free to any part of the world, with instruc-
tions for use, on receipt of 10s. 6d. by post-office order, or stamps,
by CHARLES BARKER, M.D., 10, Broak-street, Holborn,
London.—Any infringement of this triple patent will be pro-
ceeded against, and restrained by injunction of the Lord High
Chancellor.

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS, a salutary Remedy
for Indigestion and Liver Complaints.—Edward Smith, of
Newport, Monmouth, was afflicted for fifteen years with indiges•
Lion and liver complaints. His symptoms were of the severest
kind—pain in the stomach after eating, eructations of wind,
pain in the back and right shoulder, weakness, languor, and
extreme yellowness of the *min and eyes. Physicians only
affording temporary relief, he was induced to obtain this won
derful remedy, and in a short time all painful symptoms disap-
peared, and he was restored to perfect health.

KEA'IING'S COUGH LOZENGES.
"A SLIGHT COLD," if its first symptoms are nut ar-
rested, too often lays the foundation of a variety of Pulmonary
Complaints, including Winter Cough, Asthma, and other con-
stitutional derangements. The evil consequences of these dis-
orders may be easily averted or subdued by keeping at hand a
supply of the above celebrated Lozsagea, which have now stood
the test of public experience for upwaids of half a century. The
testimonials to their efficacy have been voluntarily given by the
most eminent of the faculty, as well as by all classes of private
individuals. Containing neither opiates nor any injurious
anodyne, they may be safely taken by the youngest child or the
most delicate female.
