PATRONISED BY THE FACULTY.
WOOLLEY'S PECTORAL CANDY.

THE rapidly-increasing. sale of this invaluable
MEDICINE is a convincing proof of its efficacy. The
proprietor can confidently recommend it in all cases of Coughs,
Sore Throats, Hoarseness, Loss of Voice, and Weakness of the
Chest and Lungs, as well as for the relief and ultimate cure of
long-standing Asthmatic Affections, which have offered resist-
ance to the most approved remedies. Being entirely free from
all noxious ingredients, and beneficial to the system generally
it may be taken by persons of all ages with perfect safety; for
whilst powerful to heal and give relief to the chest and throat,
and to subdue and eradicate cough, its tendency is to cool and
purify the blood.
The Proprietor has pleasure in submitting the following most
satisfactory testimonials selected from a great many
" Chatham, April 18th, 1850.
" Dear Sir,—Mrs. Chiseman, of Garden-street, Brompton,
has been cured of a cough of four years' standing, by taking
one box of our Pectoral Candy, and is,.desirous of expressing
her gratitude, in order that others similarly afflicted may ob-
tain the same benefit. Please send me three dozen of the
large boxes for her brother to take out to the Mauritius with
him next week. I can also add my testimony that, from the
many cases I have seen of its decided efficacy, I am persuaded
it stands unrivalled as a general cough medicine.—Yours truly,
"To Mr. Woolley." " HENRY WATTS, Chemist, Chatham.
" Redditch, Worcestershire, March 17th, 1851.

nR. TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN FAMILY ME-
DICINES.—These medicines have. long been in use, and
have inaumerable testimonials in, their favour. They are made
up wholly of Vegetable Substances, containing no mineral
of any kind, and are perfectly safe and certain in their action
on all persons, young or old..
DR. TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN SARSAPARILLA is the
great purifier of the blood. and the most efficient alterative
probably that is known. lit eradicates all acrid humours, dis..
eased particles, and morbid substances from the Blood, Flesh.
and Bones—its assimilation to the gastric juice of the stomach,
causes it to pass rapidly into and unite with the Vital Current,
thus creating NEW, PURE. and EKE BLOOD. Hence its won-
derful efficacy in Scrofula, Mercurial Taint, Scald Head, Erysi.
pelas, Rheumatism, Gout, Cutaneous Eruptions, Chronic,„ Sore
Eyes, and all other maladies arising from a bad state of the
blood—hence, too, its value as a Tonic, in cases of languor,
great debility, and lassitude, nervous prostration, 'realness,
and tremulousness from any cause. It is inestimable in Female
Complaints, in disease of the Lungs, Liver, Stomach, Mesen-
tery, Kidneys, Sze. Ladies of delicate constitutions, suffering
from any disorganization, with pale, emaciated countenances,
feeble and weak, nervous and irritable, would do well to use the
Sarsaparilla. This invaluable medicine produces the most sa.
lutary influence upon the nervous system, the circulation, the
organs of nutrition and secretion, and being taken, into the sys-
tem by absorption and digestion, is conveyed intaevery minute
part of the body by. the circulating current, thus diffused every.
where—made omnipresent—exercising a healthful efficacy on
every nerve and blood vessel—on the brain. the heart, lungs,
stomach, him*, kidneys, and spleen, the skin, membranes,
glands, and lymphatics—the bones, tendons, and muscles—the
blood, Idle, gastric juice, lymph, chyle, &c.. eradicating every
morbid agent, every poison--,invigorating all weak organs, en-
riching impoverished fluids, and effecting an entire renovation
of the whole system.—Half pints, 25. 6d. ; Pints, 45.; Small
Quarts, 4s. 6d. ; Large Quarts, 7s. 6d. Mammoth Bottles
holding nearly two large quarts, Its.

DR.-TOWNSEND'S INFANT'S CARMINATIVE.—This
preparation is also special, and is confined to Infants and
Children. The great and fearful mortality among children,
induced Dr. Townsend to prepare a medicine suitable to their
tender and delicate organization, and, if possible, to save them
from the numerous complaints which destroy one-half the
human family before reaching the age of five years ! In this
effort Dr. Townsend believes he has been entirely successful in
the preparation of the "Infant's Carminative," which preserves
and protects the health of a child from one day old to the age
of five years. Through all the derangements indicated by
gripings, vomitings, wind, acidity, &c , during the period of
" teething," and especially when passing the second, third, and
fourth years, in which Diarrhea, Dysentery, Cholera Infantum,
Bloody Flux, Prolapsus Ani, Fits, Spasms, Cramps, Rickets,
Distortion of the Spine, Convulsions, Scarlet Fever, Canker,
Sore Throat, Croups, Coughs, Colds, Worms, Scald Head, Ery-
sipelas, Ringworm, Eruptions, Marasmus, or wasting away,
and a general corruption of the Blood assail and cut short so
many lives, this medicine steps in and restores them in safety
and health to their parents and friends. It is a safe and posi-
tive remedy for all diseases of children, and will also build up
strong and vigorous constitutions, establish and strengthen all
their tender organs, and maintain a healthy and harmonious
working of all the delicate functions of the body. Bottles, Is. Lid.
