Diseases, than any other remedy in the world.

THE MOST .4STO.NISHLNG CURES
On record. Read the following, and some of
your doubts concerning the efficacy of this reme-
dy may be removed.
Mrs Wildly. the wife off. Wildly, Esq. residing
at 1873 West nth street, was gwen up by the
two physicians who attended her, and left to die
Every day was expected to be her last. Her
disease was pronounced consumptive, and during
her sickness she raised very large quantities of
blood. Her cough was incessant, her weakness
and emaciaton very great. After using the vi"
saonian, or All-Healing Balsam, short time
she was entirely relieved and is now attending,
20 her family duties about the house, where those
who doubt can call and see her if they feel sutfi-
GENTLY interested.
.artemas Raymond, who resided during his
sickness at $3.50 Madison street, but has since re-
moved to Providence, r. l., was attended by I
ofthe best physicians in the city. They attend
ed him the better part of three months and gave
up his case as hopeless. They pronounced his
disease an Abcess or liberation of the Liver,
and Scrofula ortho Lungs. They told him they
could not help him; and that he must die, as his
Lungs were entirely gone. He had monstrous
tumour in the side, which was opened and dis
discharged over three pints of matter from the
Liver, exactly resembling that raised from TIE
Lungs. lie was persuaded by his friends to I :
the Oosaonan, and after using two bottles was
entirely restored.
We would refer all who doubt the authenticity
ofths case to Mr.. Isaac Labagh, 81 Forfolk st.,
VIII, visited Mr.. Raymond during his sickness,
and was familiar with his treatment.

introduced Double Ram of his own invention
which will lift water from well, spring or res
ervoir, any depth not more than 80 fl. beneath
the level where it works, end then throw it to
any desirable height. This is an entirely new
invention, and produces the effect by the simple
impulse and conclusion of the water and atmos-
pheric pressure. There IL no rotary friction, and
nothing to wear but three simple valves; and the
cost is very little more than that ofthe single
rani which; while 1t is much more complicated
throws only part Of the water used as the propel-
ling power.
The SINGLE RAM is improved materially from
those first used in this county.
He has also introduced donble-actng Force

lift the water from any well Of any depth and
throw it to any height required, say to bath

above, but which will only raise water 3ott. This
pump suits well IN towns and vilages-it saves

where the water is wanted, viii supplya dozen
