The Rev. WILLIAM CRoseRovE, while
laboring as Missionary in Japan, was
cured of Consumption, when all other
means had failed, by a recipe obtained
from a learned physician residing in
the great City of Jeddo. This recipe
has cured great numbers who were
suffering from Consumption, Bronchitis,
Sore Throat, Coughs and Colds, and
the debility and nervous depression
caused by these disorders.
DESTROYS of beneftting others, I will
send this recipe, which have brought
home with me, to all who need it, free
of charge. Address

THE SLA YES OF PREDJUDlCE
DEATH ROBBED OF HIS PREY.

There are queer people in the world;
people with the most absurd, unreasona-
Bile, and .indefensible Dprediudices. For
example, we have met with individuals
who had morbid antipathy to anything
that was extensively advertised, no matter
what might be its actual claims to the con-
6dence of the public. These eccentrics
looked with especial disfavor on. adver-
tised medicines They could not see, for
example, in Dr. Holloway's magnificent
system of advertising, covering, as does,
all the mediums of publicity which the
world affords, anything but a gigantic
scheme Of mere speculation. True, they
could not gainsay the testimony pouring
inspontaneously from the highest sources,
in favor of his incompatible Pills and
Ointment, but still they shook their heads
and muttered '.humbug." Of course,
there is no possibility of arguing with
men who won't reason. The best way is
to let them alone. Fortunately, such
specimens of stupidity and "few and far
between" in this enlightened era. The
general feeling is, that if a thing is in its
elf excellent, its virtues should be pro-
claimed 10 the four winds Of heaven, for
the general benefit of mankind. Hence,
the proclamations made by DR.. Holloway,
through the entire newspaper press of the
world, of the properties and operation OF
his remedies, meets with the cordial APP
proval of thinking men. The value Of the
preparations as specifics for the various in
ternal and external complaints peculiar to
different climates, or comman to the world
at large, is conceded, not only by the
masses, but by governments, men Of
science, and candid observers in every
walk of life Can such remedies be toe
widely known? Impossible!-CIn. "Dol
