 Upon the responsibility of my medical testimonials my great success medical practItioner, and the salutary and beneficial effects of my meiiicne stand or fall seek not deceive the public with an ar- tice of whose component parts they are ignorant. What do the public know of the poisonous and de- structiye ingredients contained in the various pills and panaceas advertised throughout the Union The proprietors of such medicines know too well If the public were aware, that ot of every ten pills they have swallowed, eight of them are Mercury, their trade was at an end. have anaized of the pills, and other medicines advertised throughout the Union and found them contain either eorTosire sub Inmate or Cdlogcl. The reason is then obvious why these base mposters will not tell the component parts of their medicines. They pretend that they have dis covered the philosophers stone, and that you may live through countless ages, if you but swallow their medicine. l practice such deception My medi- cine has stood the test of years-t is recommended by the most eminent of the medical faculty, and what is of more importance than all, canddly and hon- estly confess that my medicine is a combination of Sarsapariia, Lre.eori, Piearisy Root, Lguum Fda, and one two other ingredients. The only origin aliiy claim is in my peculiar mode of preparation. 1t is true, has often been the wonder and amaze ment of my medical brethren, the astonishing cures performed in that were considered not within the pow, of medical aid. The whole mystery con sisted in my using the medicine and this alone the exclusion of all others, and of the principles upon which diseases ought to be treated. It will not however be a matter of surprise that such wonderful success should follow the use of this medicine, when l state the principles upon which acted.
 The human body consists of solids and fluids The former or long structure is about one-flth. The lat ter or soft part five sixths. Man is linked together by n,snber of organs beautifully form per- feet chain in the animal economy. One link of which when out of order or diseased sufficient to destroy the harmony of the whole. These organs are frnsl- ed with inumerabe blood vessels called arteries and veins, which have common centre. The heart for propelling through them the blood or nutrtve fluid to all parts of the system, from the heart being furnished with valves which all in direction, the blood can only flow in corresponding course. That it is forced by the heart into the areres and after moist ening the minute fbrss, 1t is received by tine veins and brought again to the heart, and performs again the round of the body, and so on m successl0n The of the blood, is to receive from the alimena " canal the skin lungs, such matters is necessary for the nouishent of man, and to convey t to every part of the body for the purpose orepairng its waste and increasing it's growth. But any eiiete, poison foreign matter is carried into the blood sesera oryiis are provided as the ipr, kidneys, skin and lungs through which this poison is discharged from the blood in the form of pile, urine, precipitation and pumonary exllalation. From this brief sketch oI mans formation, the intelligent reader can easily w- derstand, how fever and inflammation is produced by the suppression of preparation, for if perspratlon be arrested in consequence of cold, the perspirlbe mat fer will mix with the blood and give rise to inIaina. tion. In like manner, if the discharge of bile be ar; rested in it's flow from the liver it is taken into the circulation and gives rise to Jalndices yellow fever &c All diseases have therefore e,nlmon origin (not impury of bood for that is 6nly aI efect,) but in the obstruction of one or other of those three great outlets or common sewers of the bgdy ,'the bowels [ skin and kidneys. s-5.ssf N.TG Is, 4.
 Reader, did you but know how feasiiIlly and woun. derfalIy you are onsructed--hows beautifully the Creator of the universe has provided for your pre- servaton and existence, independentof your will, then indeed would your admiration of the perfeciio, of his mighty handiwork never During sleep, when your mental faculties inactive, and your soul appears Dc in state of repose, then IS the wise provision and foeknowledse of tie author o nature made manifest. The heart continues to pour its vital stream to every part of the body-he lungs perform their offce-respiration is continued ,;and the blood decarbonzed-he skin pours out from its myriads oi pores the poisonous matter of the blood-digestion continues and the nutritiye particulars of food is carried into the blood for tee ren,jraaon of man, Were all the organs of the body, therefore, under the control of the will, when sleep, the heart would cease to pulsate death would a necessary conse- auence folowte lungs would cease 9o perform their oice-suIlocation and death be the cpnsequence, or perspiration or digestion De nlerruped the effects which would be perpetual disease. .as 2 ae
 Reader, you now know perhaps, better than you ev- CT knew before the vast importance of keeping these organs so necessary to life in a healthy state. You will also place less reliance on the pretensions of ig norant and uncducaed men, especially when they att eanpt to meddle with diseases they know iioting of You will likewise appreciate the services of the skill ful medical practitioner, who has abored for IS years in the study of science through all it's minuta, and who now offers for your benefit the result of his long and arduous abors. ask if you possessed a watch Of i've dollars sale anu U was out ~ Tcpdi, Wouiu you take it to tinker 10 have it set in order No; you would surely bring il to good watch-inaker.- How much more difficult then is the putting in order of the human body when out of repair. watch may stop, it can be set going agan-if mans machl- nery once stops it stops forever No human power can ever again sci t in motion. 3
