OIL OF TANNIN,

A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY

n NEW SI1IINlCAL DloCOF ER1.
Most people know that skins and hides are convert
ed into leather by the of Tannin extracted from
certain banks, SC.
When the force and strength of the Tannin is worn
out, leather becomes dead hard dry, brittle cracked
covered with crust, sc. THIS ALL KNOW To re-
sore them life, softness, mostness strength smooth
ness, and ramove all crust fly or blister-restore the
tannn This substance the leather never can receive
the second time; but the whole virtues of it are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN-which pene-
trates the stest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use and if it tears easily with the
fingers, it imparts at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather,
in all respects, with delightful softness and polish
and makes all leather completely and perfectly i'm
pervous to watcr-particularly boots, Shoes carr-
agetops, harness, hose trunks and in fact all things
made of leather, giving splendid polish even high
er than new leather has, and at least doubling its
wear and durability, in whatever manner the leather
is used. THESE ARE FACTS.
Those who will may wear old shoes croap with

and throw them away half used-look filthy them

OF all diseases to which children exposed,
none are SO fatal to them worms. Unfortunately,
children are seldom free from them, and they
initiate the symptoms Of almost every other COM
plaint they often produce alarming effects without
being suspected Worms are not only cause of
disease themselves but by their irritation aggravate
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 commissions, and too often death The best

DR.. JAYNE's TONIC vERMIFUGE,

which perfectly safe, and pleasant that children
will not refuse to take it. 1t effectuay destroys
WORMS; neutralizes acidity sourness of the
stomach, increases appetite, and acts as general
and permanent Tonic, and is therefore, exceedingly
beneficial in Intermittent and Remittent Fevers In
digestion, &C., and is certain and permanent cure
Cor FEVER and AGUE.
1t not only destroys Worms, and invigorates the
whole SYSTEM but it dissolves and carries off the
perabundant slime mucous so prevalent in the
stomach and bowels of children, 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 on 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 to
publish yet to give the reader an idea Of its verm-
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 DID, when it brought away thirty worms
in one night.
Josiah Thompson near Salem, N. j.. administered
this Vermifuge to child between two and three
years old, and says that in few days she discharged
ono 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
children and says that after the sixth dose it brought
away about fifty Worms at once, FIVE and six inches
long
Mr.. Ferdinand Woodruff used two bottles of this
Vsrmifilge 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 a 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
and in solid balls as large hickory nuts, composed
entirely of dead worms.
