TO TIE ASTHME7TC 4, CONSU.MPTIpE
THE most prevalent and fatal of all the Dis
Il eases incident to civilized society-the
Consumpiion--may generally be traced to
the least alarming of disorders, a slight but
neglected Cold. By estimation il appears that
one hundred and .ffly thousand persons die
annually Of the Consumption. Most of these
dreadful results may be attributed to common
Colds. and a negligent treatment of the har
rasslng Cough that generally ensues-w which
is usually followed by difficult breathing, pain
in the side, and al last liberated Lungs. Vlo
lent and repeated Asthmalc attacks slso
bring on consumptive symptoms. One or two
dollars expended in the purchase of
DR.. RELIES ASr MATlC PILLS,
and a little attention TO their timely admins
iration. will usually ensure a mitigation OF
these disorders. and generally effect a cure
The Pills are also n easy and effectual rem

panying the Asihms and Consumption. For
Colds, Coughs, difficulty Of breathing. tight
ness and structure across the Chest, Wbeez-

WHITE and SOUND Teeth are both an
wv ornament and blessing. The best
security for their advantages is to be found
in the use Of tho
BRITISH ANTlSEPTTC DENTIFRICE.
This olegan, Tooth Po,cdsy, with a very lit.
tie use, ersdicstes the Scurpy in the gums
and prevents the accumulation Of 7arfer,
which not only blackens but loosens the
teeth, and sccelerates their decay. The
Dentifrice thus removes the prevailing eau
ses of offe nsive breath, preserves the health
mess and hordness of the gums, and renders
the teeth beautifully white.
