The NATURAL REGENERATOR of the DIGESTIVE ORGANS
(the Stomach and Intestines), WITHOUT Glysters, Baths, Pills,
Purgatives, or Medicines of any kind, BY A SIMPLE, NATURAL,
AGREEABLE, AND INFALLIBLE MEANS, called
" THE ItEVALENTA ARABICA"

(n nutritive and eminently curative fecula derived from an African
plant). The Revalenta Arabica is not a medicine, but a simple ali-
mentary substance, agreeable to the palate, more easily digested
than any other f :est, and, in its immediate effects upon the stomach
and intestines, eminently curative and strengthening, radically re •
moving and healing even the most inveterate affections of these
vi,,cera, which it restores t. their primitive vigour and activity. By
removing all disorders from the stomach and intestines, mid enabling
these org.ins to perform their important functions freely, and to
supply the system with a healthy chyle. the "Revalenta Arabica"
eradicates, in its ulterior effects, all the host of refractory, obstinate,
and painful diseases which have their origin or their seat in deranged
or weak digestive organs, such as indigestion (dyspepsia), dysentery,
costiveness, liver complaint, weak and extinguished appetite, fetid
breath, nervous headaches, hemorrhoidal affections, obstruct,ons,

supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determ,ne the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
cemprosing hurry ; but the troth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
in the compact; it alone dignifies Chet alliance. Bligkted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than povey or misfortune. Reader, if

little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,

(IMPORTANT CURE of INFLAMMATIO
of the EYES, by the use of DURKEE'S GREEN MOUN-
TAIN VEGETABLE OINTMENT.
" Martha Day, of 94, High Holborn, states thas she is 14 years of
age, and has been afflicted with Fore eyes from her infancy, occa-
sioned by the measles ; and for the last three years has been unable
to distingui-h objects with one of her eyes, and has suffered much
pain. She ha* been under the care of several occulists, particularly
the principal one of the Royal Westminster Ophthalmic Hospital ;
yet the inflammation increased and extended down the side of the
face, producing a hard swain; or tumour just below the jaw-bone.
In this state of disease she was advised to apply Durkee's Green
Mountain Vegetable Ointment ; in a few days the swelling and in-
flammation entirely subsided, and she can now see to read ordinary
print with that eye, the sight of which was considered past restora-
tion."
The distinguishing feature of this ointments is its power in reducing
inflammation ; it is therefore highly beneficial in gout, rheumatism,
erysipelas, bronchitis, ringworm, glandular swellings, and all scrofu-
lous affections. The proprietors have consigned the ointment to
Messrs. H. Preston and Son, 94, Smithfield-bars, London. It is also
sold by Barclay and Son, Farringdon-street ; Sanger, 150, Oxford-
