FEMALE COMPLAINTS. - KEARSLEY'S
ORIGINAL WIDOW WELCH'S PILLS, so long and
justly celebrated for their peculiar virtues in Female Com-
plaints, and strone!y recommended even by Members of the
Faculty, as a safe and certain remedy in removing those oh-
structions, and in regulating that periodic function, upon
which the health of young women so much depends.
These Pills are most valuable also in general debility of the
system—in stimulating the languid appetite—in removing
indigestion, and the host of nervous affections dependent
tation and shortness of breath, which some-
the slightest exertion.

TIECIMAL PALM CANDLES—
CHEAPER THAN TALLOW CAN-
DLES, with two wicks, Sd. per lb., with one
wick, 7d. per lb., ten to the lb. These Can-
dies, ugly,
burn well, and without

guttering. They are admirably adapted for all who require
one which emits a great light. For Artisans, Turners in
Metal, Sempstresses, Tailors, Shoemakers, for the win-
'slows of small shops, and for persons of weak sight,
'where the light is of primary, and appearance of secon-
dietary importance, these Candles are incomparable ; in
short, one Decimal Palm Candle, with two wicks, gives the
Bight of three ordinary candles, and with one wick the light
40f two ordinary candles, and does not require snuffing.

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERI-
CAN SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most ex-
traordinary and valuable Medicines in the world. Its supe-
riority over other prepantiona of like character, made in this
country, arises from the mode of manufacture, and the ad-
vantage of obtaining and working the root in its green and
fresh sthte. 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 re-
ceived since we have been in England, from those who have
experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medi-
cine. They must have some weight in convincing the public
of its great value.
49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. 1, 1851.
Gentlemen.—l have much pleasure in testifying to the
numerous thanks I have received from various persona who
have taken Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of
whom will be happy to give you testimonials should you re-
quire 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.—l am, gentlemen,
your obedient servant, JOHN JA MIESON.
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co.
FURTHER IMPORTANT TESTIMONY.—GREAT CURE OF PILES.
17, Phelps-street. Walworth, 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 Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I
obtained some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumu-
latei corrupt matter copiously discharged, and I almost im-
mediately 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.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,
Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. Wm. HYDE.
8, Ashley-terrace, City-road, London, June 9, 1852.
GENTLEMEN Please send me again three quart bottles of
Old Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. I feel much better, and
the general system greatly improved, and I hope I shall be
all right with the three now ordered. —I am, gentlemen, yours
very respectfully. JOHN W. MUNCH.
