 There IS perhaps no medical observation better established none more generally con- firmed ny the experience of the best physi- clans of all ages and countries, and none of more importance to the human family, than the fact that manyof the most difficult and incurable consumptions originate in neglected colds. In climate so variable as ours, W here the changes of the weather are frequently sudden and unexpected, it requires more care and attention to guard against this dangerous enemy of life, than most people imagine, or are able and willing to bestow. The bills of mortality exhibit the melancholy fact that the proportion of deaths by this disease may be c. nsidered as about five to one. Inasmuch then as this fatal disease bids defiance to the skill of the most learned physicians, it is qualification to the proprietor that he is ena- bled to offer to those afflicted with it good- ly prospect of relief in that highly valuable remedy the Vegetable I,diass Specifc.-The Indians are happy in their knowledge of med ical plants; governed wholly by experience, they are certain as to their effect, and it is said by an author of great character. that a true consumption is disease never known among them.
 For the information of those afflicted with complaints. of the breast and lungs, the pro- prietor inserts ffrOm among the numerous tes- timoniais in his possession) the following cer- tifcate

 l, W. PRICE, of the city of Baltimore, dc hereby certify and declare, that was for long time afflicted with severe cold, accom- panied with an almost incessant cough, and pain in my breast and lungs; also splitting of blood and purulent matter from the lungs. with night sweats and levers, and was much emaciated by the loss of appetite, rest, S1c. ] applied to several eminent physicians, and passed through a course of medicine, but could obtain no relief and found myself fast vcrging on to a confirmed consumption. Hav- ing at length heard of the many astonishing cares affected by the Vegetabie Indian Specif- sc, was induced to make trial of it, and found almost immediate relief, and my rest restored. continued its use, improving fast, my appe- tite better, and all the symptoms of the di- sease daily diminishing, and in a few weeks was completely cured, and have remained so for several months, and am now in better health and flesh than I have been for many years. therefore with confidence, rccoul- mend the use of the Vegetable Indian Specif iC to all who suffer under similar complaint, and as safe, pleasant and efectual remedy for consumptions, and all diseases of the breast and lungs. w. PRICE.
 The celebrated Dr. Cullen has taught us that tour first attention should be employed iu watching the approach of the disease and preventing its proceeding to an incurable state; and in persons of a consumptive habit, especially those born of consumptive parents, the slightest symptoms of approaching con- sumption at the consumptive period of life ought carefully to be attended to-"
 The Specific is obtained by extraction from herbs, roots, flowers, plants, Szc. when in per lection. In consequence of happy combi- nation of the most valuable herbs, SZc. it be- comes balsam of superior value. It heals inc injured parts, opens the pores and com poses the disturbed nerves, after the manner of an annodyne; consequently the obstruc- ton of the chest and the lungs which cOnsti- tute the disease, particularly need its use. It promotes expeetoration, which is constantly called for; and whilst it cleanses and heals it also gives strength to the tender lungs. In this manner it removes the hectic fever, improves digestion, gives strength to the nerves, repairs the appetite and improves the spirits. This specific may always be given in safety-it is mild, pleasant to the taste, and is found par dcularly useful in hypochondrical nervous & hysteiical diseases. Each bill of directions contains a detailed account of this disease in all its different stages, and will be accompani- ed with the signature of the proprietor in red ink. It is offered for sale by
