We have come TO the determination to sell
goods at cash prices, without putting on any eI-
ira profit as an offset for bad debts. Any per
son dealing with ON credit, will receive a
pass-book, except when we have different
derstanding, and will expect oil accounts to be
settled by payment or note at the end OF six
months, and these terms will be rigidly adhered
to. BY doing business in this manner, we hope
to sell more goods, and at cheaper rates. To
those who purchase for cash we will always
make a difference of six per cent, except flour
and bacon, which must always be nett cash,
without credit to any one.

MELVILLE, Cumberland Co. Pa.
MIR. KJER Dear Sir-Having been appointed
by your travelling agent, when along last, agents
for the sale of your Petroleum, and fearing it
might not sell rapidly, inasmuch as so much
worthless trash is sold by travelling agents, we
only took two boxes from him, which has all been
sold. Finding it to sell quite readily and actu-
ally to answer the various purposes for which it
has been recommended, we thought We would
order of you about four boxes more as there is
still great demand for it.

In regard to the efficacy of your Petroleum,
We might add, that in every instance, without
exception, where it has been tried, it was found
to give immediate relief, particularly for pains
in the limbs, back, &C., resulting from Bilious
Intermitting Fever, which prevailed in this sec
ton to a very great extent, and invariably was
followed by pains and swelling in the limbs
Your Petroleum, in these cases, without excep-
tion was found to give immediate relief
Yours most respectfully,

suffering and agony. l lay with my limbs in
one position, aud could not stir muscle, nor
have my bed changed. My screams could be
