As from her depths the magic liquid flows,
To calm our suiferings. and assuage our woes.
nETROJ,EUM.-It is necessary, upon the in
Il trodurtion of a new Medicine, to the notice
of tbe nablic. that something should be said in
relation TO its powers, in healing disease, and
the manner in which il acts Mans orEaniza-
tion is a complicated one; and to understand
the functions Of each organ, requires the study
of wears, But to understand that certain
remedies uroduee certain impressions upon
these organs may he learned by experience in
short tims. 1t is by observation IN watching
the effects of various medicines, that we are
enabled TO increase the number Of curative
agents uud when we have discovered a new med
icine and attested Its merits, 1t Is our duty to
bring il before the public, that the benefits to
be derived from il, may be more generally dif-
fused, but have no right to bold back remedy
whose powers are calculated to remove pain,
and TO alleviate human suffering and disease.
THE PETROLEUM HAS BEEN FULLY
TESTEDi About one year ago it was placed
before the public as A REMEDY OF WON
uuainted with its virtues, doubted its healing
properties. The cry Of hambug was raised
against it. 1t had some friends. Those that
were cured through its wonderful agency -
These spoke out in its favor. The lame,
through its instrumentality, were made 10 walk
the blind to sec. Those who had suffered for
years under the torturing pains, Of Rhe'zlG-
/ tisrn, Goth and Neuralgia, were restored to
health and usefulness. Several who we're
blind have been made 70 see, the evidence of
which will he placed before you. If you still
have doubts, 90 and ssk those who have been
cured! Some Of them live in our midst, and
can swear for themselves. In writing about
medicine we are aware that we should write
raurH-that we should make no statements
that cannot be proved. We have the witness
es-crowds of fhem who will testify in terms
stronger than we can write them, 20 the eff
cacy Of this Remedy, who win testify that the
PETROLEUM has done for them what no medi-
cine ever could before--cases that were pro-
nounced hopeless and beyond the reach Of
remedial means---cases abandoned by Physi-
clans of unquestioned celebrity, have been
made TO exclaim, This is the most wonder
ful remedy ever discoysredt'' We will lay be-
fore YOU the certificates of some of the most
remarkable cases; TO give them ell, would re
quire more space than would be allowed by this
circular Since the introduction of the Pc
, troeum. about one year ago, many physicians
have been convinced Of its efficacy, and now
recommend it in their practice; and We have
no doubt that in another year IL will stand at
the head Of the list of valuable Remedies. II
tine physicians DO not recommend IT, the peO-
; pie win have it of themselves ---for its tran
scendsnt power 20 heal, t1iH and must become
known and appreciated---when the voices of
the cured speak out; when the cures them
: selves, stand out in bold relief, and when he
who for years has suffered with the tortures
and pangs OF an immedicable lesson, that has
been shortening his days and Fastening him
"to the narrow house appointed for all the liv-
| ing" when he speaks out in its praise, who
will doubt It! The Petroleum is a natural
Remedy; il is put up rs it flows from the ho-
! som of the earth. without anything being ad
ded TO, or taken from il.
SCROFULA.--The Petroleum is a great
medicine in Scrofuln and Kings Evil, in all
those diseases having their origin in depraved
condition of the blood and other fluids Of the
body. 1t will cure pains and engagements in
the bones and joints, blotches, bles, erysipelas,
pimples on the face, tetter, scald dhead. ring
worm, and the various skin diseases. 1t has
cured numerous cases of Rheumatism, Neural
gia, Gout, &c. Several cases Of rheumatism
Of years standing. have been entirely cured
A woman in Franklin county, Pa, was >ured
of Rheumatic affection Of seven years stand
ing; the disease was so aggravated rs TO con-
fine her to bed during the greater part OF that
time. She is now well and considers herself
| entirely restored.
