EMPLOYMENT.

The Undersigned has, for several year
past, been engaged in a business, which has
yielded him at the rate of three ibohsand
dollars per annum, and is now willing to
teach it to others, The business is of a
highly useful and general character, adap
ted both to cit es and villages, and one that
any person of ordinary capacity, young or
old, male or female, can acquire with a few
hours practice, and by which they can Sc
cure a very handsome income. Several
young ladies who have received instructions
from me, both in New York and Pennsyl-
vania, are earning upwards Of $l5 per
week by it, and there is no reason why any
one else cannot do the same Invalids,
even can do well by it, as it is no peddling
affair but a business that is perfectly respec-
table. Gentleman and ladies of leisure
who would like to learn the business for their
own amusement or pleasure, will find the
practice Of it a pleasant pastime, and one
that they will take great interest in. On
cccipof 81, l will send printed ~in,truc-

IF PHYSICIANS WILL USE IT, WHY IS IT
NOT SAFE FOR THE PE0PLE7

Dear sirs,-The public generally are fully
aware of the thousands of remedies for dis
eased lungs, under the titles Of sarsapa-
rillas, Pills, Plasters, Liniments, etc., that
are daily brought 10 their nstice through the
newspapers, by way of advertisements. My
object in writing this note for publication is
to induce the public, or at least those who are
afflicted, (f they will use patent medicinee,)
to use one that contains articles of real use in
pulmonary diseases. am conscious that in
so doing / am acting most unprofessionally,
and derogatOry 10 the interests of medical
science and the regular practitioners Of medi-
cine.
The medicine 10 which l refer is DR.. Halls
BalSam for the Lungs. l have prescribed it
in O large number Of cases, and always with
success. One case in particular TO which l
wish now 10 refer, was given up by several
physic. qns who had been called in consulta-
ton with myself. The patient had all the
symptoms Of confirmed consumption, such
as cold night sweats, hectic fever, harassing
cough, with continued pain in the lobe of The
RICH, lung, attended with severe diarrhea !
nc commenced Immediately to get better by
the Use of the ~above-named medicine, and
was soon restored to his usual health /
have also found Dr.. Halls Balsam the most
valuable cxrcctorant for breaking up dis
tressing coughs and colds that have ever
used. W'D' NJ y.

E
Command Extract Of SarSapari!!a,

the most %effectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue Of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure If
not only Scrofula, but also those other affcc-
tons which arise from it, such as ERuPTIvB
and SKIN DISEASES, ST.. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
RosE, or ERYsIpELAs, PIMPLEs, PUsTULEs,
BLorcHEs, BLAINs and BOIIs, TUMoRs, letter
and SALT RnEUM, ScALD HEAD, RINGwoRM,
RHEUMATISM, SYrunIrIC and MEncuRIAL DIS
EASES, DnopsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITA
TED OH IMPURE BLooD. The popular belief
in "i0pmity ofMe Nood" is founded in truth,
for s~crofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and rcgcnera;e this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible III
contaminated constitutions.
The Democratic press. (Eaton, Preble County, Ohio) 1860-1865, 1863-03-12
Scrofula. or Kings Evil,

Is o constitutional disease, a corruption Of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part Of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, BY the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
s~titution, descending "from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation " indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 81
will visit the iniquities of the fathers uren
their children"
Its effects mmcncc by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulccrous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tuberclcs; in the glands, %swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
~ruption, which genders in the blood, dcpresses
the energies of life, so that SCI ofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous oom-
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks Of other diseases; conse-
quently vG mbers perish by disorders
r..:hich. although not Scrofulous in their nature,
~. still r%cnGcrcIl sstsi hv this faint in the
system. Most OF tic consumption Which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scroEulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
10 cleanse it from the system we must rcnovate
Che blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
v~igorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such q medicine we supply in

Dear Sir:-I have This day sold tho last

cine, and tho demand is still increasing. l
have never sold q medicine that sustained so
high a reputation. The Lung Fever, Cholera
Morbus, Cholera Infantum, Bilious Collie,
Cramp Collie, and Flux, have been very prev
alent in this vicinity the past season, and

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fcvers, indeed
for the whole class Of diseases Originate
Ing in hillary arrangement, caused by
the Malaria OF Miasmatic Countries!
We are enabled here to offer the community a
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. Such a remedy is Invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" cxpels the miasmatic poison Of FEVER
AND AGuR from the system, and prevents the de-
yelopment Of the disease, if taken on the first NP-
proach of its prcmOnitory symptoms. 1t S not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
Of complaints, .ut also tho cheapest. The large
quantity we supply for a dollar brings it within the
reach of every body and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every body should
have it and use it freely both for cure and protec-
ton. A great superiority OF this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure Of Intermittcnts is that it contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces no quinism or
other injurious effects whatever upon the %constitu-
ton. Those cured by it are left us healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Aguo is not alone the consequence Of
the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Cont, Headache, Blind
ness, IoOtRFcSf, EdIHche, CdtdfTH, dSIHhld, Idr
2itttion, Painful affection Of The Spleen, HySte,-
les, Pain in the Boicels, Cole, Paralysis and De-
rangrmrnt Of The Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the intermittent
type, or become periodical. This "CuRI" expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. II taken occa-
%sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excrcted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis
ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter
mittcnts if they avail themselves Of the protection
this remedy affords.

DR.. HALLS BALsAM strikes at the root Of thS

that any one using it freely according to di-
r~ections for twenty-four or forty-eight hours,
and not entirely satisfied with its merits,
MAY return it and receive back their money.
The most distressing cough is frequently re-
lieve9 by O single dose, and broken up in q
few hours time. The afflicted do not have
10 take bottle after bottle before they find
whether this remedy will afford relief or not.
The public have been imposed upon by
remedies recommended by certificates which
have always originated frem some unknown
source. We believe that q medicine possess
ing real merits will effect cures wherever 1t
is used, at homo as we'll as abroad. This is
no paregoric preparation, but one whichA
used in season will save the lives Of thou
sends.
1t has effected cures in numerous cases,
where the most skillful physicians in this
country and in Europe have been employed,
and have exercised their skill in vain. Cases
which they have pronounced incurable, and
surrendered as hopeless beyond a doubt,
leaving the patients without a single ray 70
enliven them in their gloom, have been cured
by DR.. Halls Balsam, and the victims Of
consumption are now vigorous anu strong
as the most robust among us. And these
cases are not isolated ones; they are numer-
Gus, and san be pointed out in every COM
munity where this most unrivaled remedy
has been tested.
Be slow, then, to believe the oft-rcpeated
story about the lungs being gone or rather
let no such apprehension induce you 10 give
up. Act upon the principle that while there
Is life there Is hope. You can never be SO low
that you may not trust, humanity speaking,
