From Mrs. Sisome, formerly Mrs. James OF pha.
q bp'. ~, 4 Bristol, Pa, Jan. is, 1916.
Messrs. Editprs--.I write to inform you and the
public, that my son was under the treatment of
our family doctor for more than year, for a very
troublesome disease of the skin without obtaining
any relief l then applied to several other physi-
clans, who gave him so much medicine, and diet
ed him so low, that thought he would die from
its effects. One physician told me that it was a
disease 10 which some families were subject, and
could not be cured Some call it Scroiula, and
others letter, Salt Rheum, Eczema, Leprosy, SC,
After trying every means for nearly FIVE years
without effect, I was advised to give him DR..
JAYNE'S JALTERATIVE. At this time, he
was literally sore from his head TO his feet. Surne
times it would dry up and scurf Off and then break
out again as bad as ever, and itch and burn so in
tolerably as to drive him almost to distraction
He had not TAX len the ALTERATIVE, however,
two weeks before there was a change for the bet
ter. He went 10 school all the time while taking
the medicine, and partook Of the same kind offood
as the restof the family, and ran about through
thick and thin, the same as the other boys of the
school until he was perfectly cured, and became
fat and hearty. and though now over FIVE years Of
age, yet not symptom Of the disease has ever
made its appearance. He took altogether twenty
six bottles of the ALTERATIVE, and no other
medicine while using it. Yours, respectfully,

Jayne's Ague Pill.

A SPEEDY AND PERMANENT CURE
FOR FEVER AND AGUE, INTERMIT-
TENT FEVER, &c.
In recommending these Pills to the public, the
proprietor does not wish to make any unnecessary
Sr tedious perambulation but with full directions
aud few important remarks, he will leave the
medicine to speak for itself, feeling confident that
its merits are such as will not fail 10 bring it into
general use; indeed, he is so sangmine Of the eff
cacy Of these Pills, that he does not hesitate to
| guarantee cure in the most aggravated cases.
| By following the directions closely while taking
this preparation, its superiority over the ordinary
Tonic Mixtures, Pills, &C. &c will be readily
| discovered. o,'ta...H
Being purely vegetable, free frcm all foreign
deeterious or mineral preparations, these Pills
may be taken with the utmust safety under almost
any circumstances They strengthen the stom-
ach, invigorate the system, and entirely prevent
that lans our and prostratipn Of strength which al
ways attends that disease. -7'#d ,1
They also possess decided superiority over
Quinine, Prussiate Of Iron, Arsenic, Boneset, and
the numerous other preparations usually employed
in the cure Of FEVER AND AGUE, in being
gently Aperient, by this means carrying them
selves off through the medium of the bowels after
they have spent their medicinal powers in the
stomach, thus preventing the accumulation of
those unpleasant symptoms that almost universal
ly follow the aPpncation Of the Aforesaid medi-
cnes, which constringe the bowels, produce con-
gestion of the Liver, aud remain in the system to
brood diseases more dangerous than those they are
employed to subvert s.eals ser
Hence it is that those remedies in the majority
of instances only serve to suppress the disease for
a short period. while the disease, still in the sys-
TEN, is brooding new evils, and soon developes
itself in more dangerous form than at first; thus
the necessity Of medicine possessing the quail
ties of Dr. JAYNE'S AGUE PILLS, that can
be applied without the fear Of experiencing those
evil effects before alluded to, and with full con-
fdence of receiving speedy and radical cure Of
the disease. ,rtaq g.-,,i
These Pills are put up in walls containing from
2S to 80 Pills, and being thus excluded from the
air, never deteriorate or undergo any change, and
