Mr.. j. l.. Curtis--Dear Sir: Gratitude a.
lone will. ! trust, be sufficient excuse for
stating the following facts. Deeming it a
duty due yoarsen and the public, l will
state them:
My wife has been for some time afflicted
with inilammatory rheumatism; the pain
was at times so severe it seemed .he could
hardly endure it., tried everything that
skilful physicians could prescribe, but pain
alone seemed to be the result. Having no
faith in secret remedies. had no inclina.
ton to give your Manlaluke Liniinenta tri-
al. But hearing it extoled. by those had
much confidence in, | resolved to try it,
obtained bottle, and after one applica-
tion, she contrary to my expectations, be-
gan to improve, and she is now better than
she has been Tor two years. My Oldest
child had been afflicted Tor three years with
chronic diarrh&a, SO that she was but a
mere skeleton. have had several Of our
ablest physicians, but they were unable to
restore health, or even mitigate the disease.
Seeing the Mamaluke Liniment recommen-
ded Tor the disease, commenced external
applications, and, although it has been bat
ten days since Icommenced, she seems to
be clear of the disease. and she looks bet
ter, feels better. and is better than she has
been for three years. can unhesitatingly
recommend it Tor the above diseases as 4
safe and sure cure.
Yours, very cordially,
b. FARNUM.

GILLMORE,S
Anti-Billi0,lS Pills,

TITS remarkable fact that most diseases
il of the present day partakc to great cx-
tent Of bilious tendency: hence the fire.
quency of those wherein the glands and
membranes are attacked, which are styled
innamatory. At this period when our
country is annually visited by feyers and
other epidemics, peculiarly indigenous TO
this country, and those residing ia, parts
contiguous TO marshes, low. wet and swan
py lands, are being constantly affected by
diseases of the tebsil and bilious class
which IS sweeping oil thousands of our
best and most useful inhabitants In this
lamentable state of affairs Is il ait all re-
markable that there should be great de-
maDd for some medicine prepared on sci
Ientitic principles, that would prevent so
much disease and mortality, and one that
could be in EVERY family. travellers port
manteau, Transfers pocket, and ladies'
toilette, and used with safety. The pro-
prietor, guided by these considerations has
com pounded an
.4yjIBILLIOUy Pill,
Which is the result of experiences, and
when he offers this Pill to the public, not
as panacea for all the ills that flesh is
heir to, but as corrector to that class OF
diseases arising from hillary arrangements,
he does it whit be most perfect assurance
that IL will accomplish more good than any
other pre- partition now in use
These Pills may be taken by the most
delicate female, as well as the most atlllet-
ic man. They may be used with certainty
in Dyspepsia, Costiyeness, Femile obstruc-
tons, Enlarged Spleen, Foul Stomach,
Bilious, Infamatory and Yellow Fever,
Jaundiee, Bilious Cholic, and all other
diseasesarising from an impure state of the
system. Tie following is sample OF the
numerous certificates the proprietor is
daily receiving:
