the Lite Invigorator, accompanied according 10 d.
ract;ons with the indicated Tonic, is warranted to
cure IN most cases. 1t is certain to restore vitality
and v;por to the system which will conquer and
throw off the disease restoring the patient to perfect
health and strength
In offering these medicines to the public am not
speaking too highly Of their merits when say that
there is nothing in the whole catalogue of remedies
tor the cure of Consumption, that will any where
near approach it in efficacy or real merit.
Having suffered for two years with the terrible dis
ease-Bronchial Consumption-in its worst form, and
having exhausted the fullest Of the medical
department for that special disease, employing the
best Doctors in the city, and my case given up by
them as being perfectly hopeless then resorted to
the trial of patent medicines; having tried them
thoroughly and receiving no benefit whatever from
them, became disheartened and discouraged, antic
patng that the fullest expectations of my Doctors
and friends would be realized.
Through my whole sickness have studied fully the
working of this terrible disease through all its vari
GUS changes, and am prepared to say that no one,
unless having the experience and chance of study
that have had, is as well prepared to manage and
cure the disease. Therefore having merted the po-
sition take. through actual experience, announce
to the public my competency to warrant of Con-
sumption in all its various forms. This terrible dis
ease considered the greatest scourge to health in
the New England States, because it has not been
treated in proper way This have learned by sub
hitting to general treatment for the disease and
realizing no benefit whatever, but continued to grow
worse, until my was considered hopeless.
therefore, in consideration Of my returning health
and of the agencies that have been the of its
restoration, do announce to the public that am pre-
pared to supply medicines to order to any part of the
country and also hold myself in readiness to examine
and treat personally orby letter any case of con-
sumpve tendency that proves obstinate and uny ed
ing under other modes oftreatment.

able fact that many syphilitic patients maze
from inexperienced physicians in general practice;
tor 1t Is point generally conceded by the best syph
ograpbers, that the study and management OF these
complaints should engross the whole time of those
who would be competent and successful In their treat
nent and cure. The inexperienced general practit-
ioner, having neither opportunity time to mako
himself acquainted with their pathology, commonly
pursues one system of treatment, in most max

Notice to the Public!

In the year 1876, the writer embarked In tho Drug
Business in the city of Philadelphia and while thus
engaged made several experiments In regard to the
most desirable mode of preparing Fluid Extracts
My efforts being successful-the articles being approx
ed aud used by the Medical Faculty. was DESTROYS
OF placing them before the public, but hestated for
time before concluding to resort to newspaper
adverts ng, knowing the prejudices that existed in
the minds of many against using advertised Medi-
cnes Nostru,s, but through the advice of friends
and those who had used them this objection was
overcome. uo
After Is years. exertions, commencing in small
way the popularity OF my articles has extended to all
parts of the United States, and widely throughout
foreign countres-and this in the face of much oppo-
sition. Every means has been resorted to by un-
pricped dealers since their merit and success have
been known-such advertising larger bottles at less
price, censurng all other preparations, and even
copying my advertisemcnts-butI am happy to state
that out Of the many who have resorted this none
have been successful.
MY OBJECT
In this notice is to make facts known to the public
and respectable dealers, believing, after SO many
years exertions. that the Druggists win discounte-
nance such proceedings, and that the reputation of
my articles may not be damaged by use of inferior or
spurious ones.
Knowing that many may read this article who are
unacquainted with me, append few remarks from,
those ofmy native city, and whose names are known
in all parts of the world:
