aEeHEADACuE is the favorite sign by which na- ture makes known any deviation whatever from thenatural state of the brain and viewed in this light it may be looked on as safeguard intended to give notice of disease which might otherwise escape attention till too late to be remedied; and it's indications should never be neglected Head- aches may be classified under two names, viz: symptomatic and Idiopathic. symptomatic Head- ache is exceedingly common and is the precursor of a great variety of diseases, among which are Apoplexy, Gout, Rheumatism and all febrile dis cases In it's nervous form it is sympathetic ot disease of the stomach constituting sick headashe, of heptic disease constituting BILIOUS HEADACHE, of worms, constipation and other disorders of the bowels, as well as renal and uterine affections. Diseases of the heart are very frequently attended with Headaches; Anania and plethora are also affections which frequently occasion headache. Idiopathic Headache is also very common, being usually distinguished by the name of NERVOUS HEADACHE, sometimes coming on suddenly in state of apparently sound health and prostrating at once the mental and physical energies, and in other instances it comes on slowly, heralded by depression of spirits acerbity of temper In most
 instances the pain is in the front of the head over one orboth eyes, and sometimes provoking vom- ting; under this class may also be named NEU- RALGIA
 For the treatment of either class of Headache the Cephaic Pills have been found a sure and safe remedy, relieving the most acute pains in a few minutes, and by its subtle power eradicating the diseases of which Headacne is the uncrring index

Coustipation or Costiveness.

No one of the |" many ills flesh is heir to- is so prevalent, so lttle understood, and so much neg lected as Costivcness. Often originating in care lessness, or sedentary habits; it is regarded as a slight disorder of too little consequence to excite anxiety, while in reality it is the precursor and companion of many of the most fatal and danger ous diseases, and unless early eradcated it will bring the sufferer to an untime]y grave. Among the lighter evils of which costiveness is the usual attendant are Headache, Collie, Rheumatism, Foul Breath Piles and others of like~nature, while a long train of frightful diseases such as Malignant Fevers, Abcesscs Dysentery, Diarrhea, Dyspep sia, Aonplexy. Epilepsy, Paralysis, Hysteria, Fly pochondriasis, Melancholy and Insanity, first in- lcate their presence in the system by this alarm ing symptom. Not unfrequently the diseases named originate in Constipation, but take en an independent existence unless the cause is eratlica- ted in an early stage. From all these consitlera- tions it follows that the disorder should receive immediate attention whenever it occurs, and person should neglect to get box of Cephalc Pills on the first appearance of the complaint, their timely use will expel the insiduous ap- breaches 0: disease and destroy this dangerous foe to human life.

DR. M'LANE'S
 CELEBRATED YER MIFUGE LIVER PILLS.

WE beg leave to call the atten- W ton of the Trade, and more especially the Physicians of the country, to two ot the most pop ular remedies now before the pub lie. We refer to
 Dr. Chas. M'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge and Liver Pills.
 We do not recommend them as universal Cure-alls, but simply for what their name purports, viz:
 THE VERMIFUGE, For expelling Worms from the human system. It has also been administered with the most satis- factory results to various Animals subject to Worms.
 THE LIVER PILLS, For the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS, all BILIOUS DERANGEMENTs, SICK HEAD-AcHE, &c. In cases of
 FEVER AND AGUE, preparatory to, or after taking Qui- nine, they almost invariably make a speedy and permanent cure.
 As, specifies for the above men, tioned diseases, they are Unrivaled, and never known to fail when ad- ministered in accordance with the directions.
 Their unprecedented popularity has induced the proprietors,
 FLEMING BROTHERS,
 & PITTSBURGH, PA. to dispose of their Drug business, in which they have been success fully engaged for the last Twenty Years, and they will now give their undivided time and attention to their manufacture. And being de- termined that Dr. M'Lane's Cele- brated Vermifuge and Liver Pills shall continue to occupy the high position they now hold among the great remedies of the day, they will continue to spare neither time nor expense in procuring the Best and Purest material, and com- pound them in the most thorough manner. Address all orders to
 FLEMING BR0S., Pittsburgh, Pa. P.s. Dealers and Physicians ordering from others than Fleming Bros, will do well to write their orders distinctly, and take but Dr. ArLanes prepared by Fleming Bros, Pittsburgh Pa. To those wishing to give them trial will forward per mail post paid to part of the United States box of Pills for twelve threecen postage stamps vial of Fermifuge for fourteen stamps All orders from Canada must be accompanied by twenty cents extra.
