FINKL E&LYON'S
Sewing Machines!

These Machines make the lock.stitch
alike on both sides, and use less than half
the thread and silk that the single or
double thread loop-stch Machines do;
will Hem, Fell, Gather, Cord, Braid,
Bind, &c, and are better adapted than
any other Sewing Machine in use to the
frequent changes and great variety of
sewing required in a family, for they will
sew from one to twenty thicknesses of
Marseilles without stopping, and make
every stitch perfect, or from the finest
gauze to the heaviest beaver cloth, or
even the stoutest harness leather, without
changing the feed, needle, or tension, or
making any adjustment of Machine what
ever
They are simple in construction, and
easily understood; and if any part is
broken by accident, it is readily replaced.
These are peculiar facts, and will go
far to determine the choice of any intelli-
gent buyer.

TO THOSE WHO THINK.


Now, we hold that all external remedies act
either in che of two ways, or combine the
action of both. First-They act directly upon
the nervous system without touching the blood
vessels--the sanguiferous system. All Arnica
lniments nerve linments, ETC., belong to this
class, and consequently only benun,J the ends o.
the nerves, without affecting at all the circulat
tion-may temporarily stop pain--but have not
the slightest effect in restoring the equilibrium
of circulation, essential to healthy action: Or
Secondly--They act upon the blood vessels with
out, as in the case of depetives, (leeches or
cups) regard to the nervous system. Now, the
fact is-that the nerves preside over the blood
vessels, and external application to be effect
i've must act upon both nerves and blood vessels.
RADWAY'S READY RELIEF,
We proclaim, has this double action of assuag-
ing pain, by its specific effect upon the nerves
and equalizing the circulation by its effect up
on the blood vessels. Tn this way it relieves and
cures Rheumatism, Lumbago, Tooth-achc, Head
ache, and variety Of such like complaints
When taken internally, its astringent and diff
fusivc stimulating properties check in the most
natural manner Darrhen, Coles, and other
bowel complaints. Whilst for sore Threats, ac
companed by putresency, and for fever patients,
with Typhoid symptoms an eminent physician
attached to the New Orleans Hospital. has pros
nounced it far superior as an anti septic and an
ts- putrescent to the celebrated eau Medicinal
Of Raspail. He administers it internally to HE
patients, and sprinkles his wards with it, Let
the sick and all those who suffer pain, test its
virtues. RADWAY & CO.,

TO THOSE WHO DO THINK

We say that Rad'eoy's Ready Relief is the
most elegant and powerful medicine known in
the world. This is not boasting try it if you
feel sceptical and be convinced. 1t combines in
its composition the properties of u di1usive
stimulant, an Ant-septic, mild but effective
Astringent, and direct power over the nerves,
neither narcotic nor anodne, that relieves pain
in manner peculiar to itself, and for which we
have no word in the English language exactly
to express its action The French call it Soul
dgement. So much for its internal administra-
ton. When applied externally, it will be found
powerful counter-irritant, instantly reddening
the surface to which it is applied, and withdraw
ing the blood from some neighboring part,
where it may be congested or heaped up, causing
pain and leading to Inflammation. 1t fulflls
the indication of equaizing the circulation most
effectively, and most beautifully to minds that
can understand its action.
