ANOTHER SURPRISING CURE OF ASTHMA BY
DR. LOCOCK'S PULMONIC WAFERS.
From Mr. William Bowen, Cartlett, Haverfordwest, dated
Feb. 4,1847:

Sir,—Having been afflicted for many years with a violent cough
and asthma, and having tried all other medicines in vain, I was re-
commended to try Dr. Locock's Wafers. I sent for a box, and, to
v great astonishment, I found relief in the very first night, and
have continued to get better ever since. ['heir effects are really
wonderful. ➢iy appetite is now good, whereas formerly I could
scarcely keep my food on my stomach.

TIC DOLOREUX CURABLE.—TOOTHACHE.
JAMES' CELEBRATED ASTILIAN TINC.
TUBE FOR THE TIC DOLOREUX,
will prove an invaluable medicine to those suffering from this most
excruciating and hitherto-considered incurable complaint. A know-
ledge of its surprising efficacy has induced the proprietors to bring it
more extensively before the Public than has hitherto been done, and
thus confer a blessing upon thousands now labouring under that
distressing malady; the first application not only easing the patient
of all pain, but effecting in almost every case, a lasting cure.
As a remedy for Toothache, the proprietors can confidently recom-
mend it as one that cannot be surpassed.
This medicine is also a certain specific for Spasms, however violent,
especially in the stomach or bowels, and from its perfect freedom
from anything of a deleterious character, may be administered under
any circumstances with entire safety.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS
Copy of a letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, Chemist, Monk Bar,

York,

" To Mr. Thomas Prout,

" 14th Jane, 1847.
" Sin,—llaying suffered most dreadfully for the last six years from
repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best
medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to
try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatie Pills. When I commenced
taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were
very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense
agony, I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in
the morning comparatively free from pain ; and before I had finished
the box, I never was better in my life : they have not only entirely
removed the gout, but have also very Rauch improved my general
health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who
have suffered much from gout and rheumatism • and they all speak
highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think
my case worthy of Insertion among the many cures effected by your
wonderful medicine, you are at perfect liberty to publish it.
" I am, Sir, yours respectfully,
WILSO."
The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma-
tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and
certain relief.
They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and
invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other
vital part.
Sold by Thomas Front, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment by all respectable Medicine Vendors throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.
Ask for BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, and observe
the name and address of " Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London," im-
pressed upon the Government Stamp affixed to each box of the
Genuine Medicine.

AI R IA G E.
One half the wend are desolately single, and the other
suppoe;ng them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
altter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
at caution and woricily prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
eomprosin,l harry; but. the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the enly marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should Corm an item
in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
.:here surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
NIEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life," pub. in 2 vols., ls.
each (by post, in stamps, ls. 6d. each). Le. no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy misinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
'er the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
ittle publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and .avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely tmphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
m the " sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of
Aherwood, 23, Paterncster-row ; Carvalho, 147, Fleet•street • Mann,
IS, Cornhill ; Nalson, 457, West Strand; or direct (by post or other-
wise) from the author (who may be conferred with personally,
mornings and evenings), 10, Argyll-plaee Regent-street; and all
