CHILDREN are most subject to them, but per-
sons of all ages are liable to be afflicted with
them. Bad breath, paeness about the lips, flush
ed cheeks, picking at the nose, wasting away,
leanness, pain in the bowels, joints or limbs, dis
turbed sleep, frightful dreams, moaning and some
times vofaCiouS appetite, ale among the Symp-
toms of worms. Many are doctored for months
for some other imaginary disease, when one box
of Sherman's Worm Lozenges would effect cute.
DR.. Ryan, corner of Prince street and the Bowery,
cured man of worms that was reduced to skel-
eton, and by only one box of Sherman's Lozenges:
he is now as fat as alderman The Hon b.
B Beardslev has saved the life of one ofhis chill
dren by them. The sale of over 2, 900 900 of boxes
has fully tested them. They the only infalli-
bic worm destroying medicine known. What
family will be without them
Consumption, Coughs, Colds, WhOOping Coughs,
Asthma, and all affections of the lungs, will find
healing value in Shermans Cough l.ozenges.-
They saved the Rev. Richard DE Forrest, the
Rev. Mr.. Streeter, Jonathan Howarth, Esq, and
that worthy old hero, Leonard Rogers, from the
consumptive's grave. They cured in one day, the
Rev. Mr.. Dunbar, the Rev. Mr.. Handbook VIM.
III. Attree, Esq, OF distressing coughs They are
the pleasaniest cough medicine and cure the soon
est of any known remedy.
Headache, Sea-sickneSs and PalptatiOn,
lieved in from five to ten minutes by Sherman's
rooms or travelling will find them to impart buoy
ancy of splits and renew their energies Those
suffering from free living will find few of the
lozenges to dispel the horrors and lowness of
spirits. Mr.. hrauth, of the Sunday Mercury, has
repeatedly cured himself of severe headache by
them. Captain Chadwick, of the packet ship
Wellington, has witnessed their efficacy in great
many cases of sea-sickness. They operate like a
charm upon the aoilated or shattered nerves, as
Shermans Poor. Mans Plaster does upon rheu-
maiism, lumbago, pain or weakness in the side,
back, breast, or any part OF the body. M. I'll. e..
Daggers, 80 Ann street, Henry r. Goulding, 35
Chatham street, Moses j. lienriques. Esq, and a
multitude Of others have experienced the wonder
full effects of these Plasters. Price only II l-2
cents. Caution is necessary to see that you get
the genuine Sherman's Lozenges and Plasters, as
there are many worthless articles attempted to be
palmed off in place of them, by those who would
trihe with your life for shilling.
A fresh supply of these valuable medicines Just
received and for sale at the Republican office.
