OIL OF TANNIN,
OR LEATHER RESToRER

A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY.
Most people know that skins and hides are convert
ed into leather by the of Tannin extracted from
certain banks, SIC.
When the force and strength of the Tannin il worn
out, leather becomes dead, hard dry brittle cracked
covered with crust, &C. THIS ALL KNOW To re-
store, then, life softness, moisness strength smooth
ness, and ranaove all crust, fly, bsterrestore 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 pence
trates the stest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use; and if it tears easily with the
hngers 1t lmparts 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 inn
pervous to ENTHUSIASTICALLY boots shoes, carri-
age-tops, 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 groan with

1T CANNOT BE DENIED,

l. OR truth is mighty, that DR.. Leidy's SARSAPA-
RILLA is the purest, strongest, and most efcacous
of any other preparation Of Sarsapara that is made.
1t is warranted TO be stronger than six bottles of
most Others stronger than four of some and stronger
than three of the strongest prepared by any other in
the United States.
DR.. Leidy's Sarsaparilla is recommended by all
respectable physicians in preference to any other.
Ali who have ever used it have derived benefit
from one bottle than three to ten of others; and
those Who after having used other preparations with
out benefit, will use Dr. Leidy's, will soon be con-

The apparatus with which DR.. Leidy's extracts,
used in his preparation of Sarsaparlla prepared
the only in the United States, imported by DR..
Ledy himself from the celebrated house of Pelleter

pable of extracting the medicinal virtues Of Sarsa-
parla and other roots more efectually than by any
other process.
AS several hundred certificates of remarkable
cures, and recommendations from clergymen and

WORMS! woRMs!! woRMs!!!

Of all diseases to which children exposed
none are SO fatal to them as worms Unfortunately
children are seldom free from them, and as they
initiate the symptoms Of almost every other COM
plant they often produce alarming effects withoat
being suspected. Worms not only of
disease themselves but by their irritation aggravate
all other diseases, wandering from one part of the
body to another, winding themselves into large balls
and obstructng the bowels, and frequently the throat
causing commissions, 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 efectually 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 Remtent Fevers, In
digestion, &c., and is certain and permanent cure
for FEVER and AGUE.
1t not only destroys Worms and invigorates the
whole SYSTEM but it dssolves and carries off the SUI
perabundant slime or 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 on the system, and the
health OF the patient is always improved by its use
even when no Worms are discovered. Numerous
certificates Of its usefulness have been received,
which the proprietor does not consider necessary

DYSPEPSIA CURED,

BENNINGTON VT. Dec 5th l843
Dear Sir 81 wish to add my testimony to the host
Of others that you have in favor of your valuable pills.
In the yeaI 1885, was attacked with that disagree
able complaint the Dyspepsia which SO affected me
that could not take particle of food, without the
most unpleasant and uncomfortable sensations in my
chest, head and bowels. Ny chest was so sore that
could not bear the slightest pressure without giving
me pain. My health was most miserable; many
physicians told me they thought was in the consump
ton, and that if did not give up my business and
change climate, could live but short time.
tried every thing in the shape of medicine, and
consulted the most skilful physicians, but found no
permanent relief ! became discouraged, gloomy,
sad, and sick of life and, probably, this, should
have been in my grave, had not fell in with your
precious medicine A friend of mine who had been
sick OF the same complaint, advised me to try your
pills but having tried most other medicines without
obtaining any relief had but little faith that your pills
would be OF benefit to but, at his earnest solicit
tation, ! procured a box and commenced taking
them.
The first box produced little or no effect and be-
gan to despond, for fear that your medicine would
prove like others have taken but my friends argued
that one was not fair trial, and purchased Sec
ond, and before had taken the whole box began to
experience change! the pain in my chest began to be
less painful, and my food did not distress so much
as formerly went on taking them until | had taken
SIX boxes and my Dyspepsia was GONE, and my ex-
Pectation OF an early death vanished and felt like
new creature" / was then, and am now
healthy man. / have never since been troubled with
the Dyspepsia. | have administered your pills to the
members ofmy family, and to my friends and in all
cases with good success. You can publish this if it
VIII be OF any use to you. am dear sir, truly yours,
