TT CANNOT BE DENIED

i OR truth is mighty, that Dr. Ledy's SARSAPA-
RILLA is the purest, strongest, and most efcacious
Of any other preparation Of Sarsaparlla 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. Ledy's Sarsaparilla is recommended by all
respectable physicians in preference to any other.
All who have used it have derived more benefit
from one bottle than three to ten of others and
those who after having used other preparations with
out benefit will use DIR. Leidy's, will soon be
WINGED (as thousands have already been) of the fore
going assertion.
The apparatus with which DR.. Leidy's extracts,
used in his preparation of Sarsaparilla prepared is
the only one in the United States, imported by DR..
Ledy himself from the celebrated house of Pelleter
& Caventou in Paris, at great expense, and is
pable of extracting the medicinal virtues Of Sarsa-
parilla and other roots efectually than by any
other process.
AS several hundred certificates Of remarkable
cures, and recommendations from clergymen and
physicians have been from time to time published in
different papers, it is only thought necessary to keep
the public acquainted as to where DR.. Leidys Sar-
sapariIla can be be obtained genuine, namely at Dr.
Liedy's Health Emporium, l9l north Second street,
near Vine street, sign of the Golden Eagle and Ser
pents,) Fred Browns, James Bonds, and Fred

OIL OF TANNIN,
OR LEATHER RESTORER.
a NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY

A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY.
Most people know that skins and hides convert
ed into leather by the use of Tannin extracted from
certain barks SIC.
When the force and strength Of the Tannin is worn
out, leather becomes dead hard dry brittle cracked,
covered with crust, &c. THIS ALL KNOW. To re-
store them fe softness, mostness strength smooth
ness and ramove all crust fly or blister-restore the
the second time but the whole virtues of it are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN-which pene-
raes the stiest and hardest leather if it has been
twenty years in use and if it tears easily with the
fingers, imparts at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. It becomes like new leather,
in all respects, with delightful softness and polish
and makes all leather completely and perfectly i'm
pervious to water-particularly boots, shoes, carri
agetops, harness, hose trunks and in fact all things
made of leather, giving splendid polish, high
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
corns, ride with old carriagetopshaye old harness,
and throw them away half used-look filthy them
selves and all about them--expend double what is
necessary for articles of leather to tho hearts con-
tent, for what we care, if their preudices are SO
strong, they will DOT try new discovery Wehave no
favors to ask Of them, they the greatest sufferers,
aud we beg for nobody's custom or patronage. Now,
gentlemen, please yourselves.

from infancy often receive, in most miraculous
manner, their hearing when they least expect it, by

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,
or of being neglected and summed 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-
leve the tension, and bring into the natural action
of the parts to restore the hearing when lost

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
