WORMS! woR1s!!!

OF all diseases to which children are exposed,
none are so fatal to them as worms Unfortunately,
children seldom free from them, and as they
initiate the symptoms of almost every other COM |
plant, they often produce alarming effects whoat
being suspected. Worms not only cause Of
disease themselves, but by their irritation aggravae
all other diseases, wandering from part of the
body to another, winding themselves into large balls,
and obstructing the bowels and frequently the throat,
causing convulsions and too often death. The best
remedy ever yet known IS
DR.. JAYNE'S TONIC VERMIFUGE,
which is perfectly safe and pleasant that children
will not refuse to take it. 1t eectually destroys
WORMS neutrazes acdity or sourness of the
stomach, increases appetite and acts as a general
and permanent Tonic and is, therefore, exceedingly
beneficial in Intermittent and Remittent Fevers In
digestion, &c., and is certain and permanent cure
for FEVER and AGUE.
~ It not only destroys Worms and invigorates the
whole system, but it dissolves and carries off the SUI
perabundant slime mucous SO prevalent in the
stomach and bowels Of children more especially Of
those in bad health. This mucous forms The bed or
nest in which worms produce their young and by
removing tit is impossible for worms to remain in
the body
1t is harmless in its effects the system and the
health of the patient is always improved by its USE
even when no Worms discovered. Numerous
certificates of its usefulness have been received,
which the proprietor does not consider necessary
publish yet to give the reader an idea of its yerm
fuge powers, he will mention few cases. He gave
it to his little nephew, not four years old, and in
few days he discharged upwards of ninety large
worms. He also gave it to his daughter, then about
three years old, when it brought away thirty worms
In one night.
Josiah Thompson, near Salem, N. j.. administered
this Vermfuge to child between two and three
years old and says that in few days she discharged
one hundred and twenty-seven large Worms.
Mr. Joseph A. Lents, of the Penn Township Sa-
wings institution in this city, gave it to one Of his
chidren and says that after the sixth dose il brought
away about fifty Worms at once, five and six inches
long
Mr. Ferdinand Woodruff used two bottles of this
Vermlfuge for DYSPEPSIA, and in the course of
two weeks discharged upwards OF thirty pieces of
TAPE WORM, and was thereby perfectly cured
Another gentleman Of this city had it administered
to his little daughter, about three years old, when
she had number of discharges from her bowels,
composed entirely of little white thread worms He
says, ''they came away from her. not only by hun
dreds, but may truly say, by thousands, separately

DEAFNESS.
DR.. McNAIR'S ACOUSTIC OIL-Those deaf
from infancy often receive, in most miraculous
manner, their hearing when they least expect it, by
some triaing accident or event, which shows them
how easily they might have much sooner had their
hearing, and saved themselves and their friends the
pain of conversing in loud tone without pleasure,
Of being neglected and shunned to avoid that dis
tress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and
his hearers. How sacred duty, therefore, it is
that we use all necessary means to remove such an
affection, and enjoy the social qualities implanted in
our natures! This EAR OIL has the effect so to re-
ieve the tension, and bring into the natural action
of the parts SO restore the hearing when lost or
impaired. This is proved by many and well-known
cases, that where known, it needs no praise. The
great wish of the proprietor is, that each may speak
to others of its uncommon virtues, till sufferers may
know. and be relieved and restored by its use This
will be done in all cases of recent DEAFNESS and
many of long standing. ALL DEAF PERSONS
should use this oil 1t will relieve at once or if
DEAFNESS is just commencing, will remove the
cause and check its progress Those who have been
long deaf should continue its application few weeks
to hear well. Each flask has full directions for use
attached to it.. ~

can safely say that never prescribed medicine for
Bowel Complaints that has given me so much salts
faction, and my patients speedy and perfect relief
as this. Whenever introduced into family it be-
comes standing remedy for those ailments, and is
called for again and again, which think pretty
good proof of its efficacy and usefulness. In the,
Summer Complaint of children it has frequently APP
peared to snatch the little victims, as it were from
the grave. !" Il saved the life of my child and of
such and such child,' / have repeatedly heard
said. Indysenteric affections of adults have time
and again seen it act like charm, and give perma-
nent relief in few hours, may say in a few min

lily should be without it. Respectfully,
