HEADACHE.

hR. f. SPOHN, a German ply scian of much
, note having devoted his attention for some
years to the cure and removal of the causes of
NERVOUS AND SICK HEADACHE, has the
satisfaction to make known, that he has a remedy
which by removing the causes eiieclually and
permanently this distressing complaint. There are
many families who have considered Sick Headache
a constitutional incurable family complaint. DR.
y. assures them that they are mistaken and labOring
under distress which they might not only alleviate
but actually eradicate by the use of his remedy.
1t is The result Of scientific research and is entire
ly of different character from advertised patent
medicines and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that DIR. Spohn .
remedy for this distressing complaint ~ every day
gaining is certainly matter OF much as'onlshment.
That so much suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery Of an efeCtua preventive. or
cure, is truly subject of much regret, but DIR. :.
now assures the public tina, such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most credulOds. The
principles upon which il acts are simple and PLAIN.
1t is an admitted fact that rhis complaint, whether
called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises
primarily from the stomach-these who think they
have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that
this organ, the stomach is the first cause that the
system has become yltiateu debllItaed, through
the stomach, and ha, only through the same channel
must they expect restoration of the natural and
healthy functions ef the systcm.-Thls object DIR.
SpOhns remedy is eminently calculated to attain. -
The truth of this position cannot be controveted
and the sooner sufferers with the headache become
convinced Oft the sooner will their sutierlDgs end
in restoration of health Dr. Spohn pledges his
professional reputation :ths fact. The remedy
may be had apohecaries generally throughout the
United States.
