MIX BITTERS

were first used in private practice in 1925. The
were introduced to the public in 1885, since which
time their reputation has extended until they have
a sale in of all other Cathartic and Purify
ing Medicines. There is hardly family among
civilized nations who have net personal evidence of
their beneficial effects. Their great success Is
ing to their uniform reliability in of Consti
patton, Bilious and Stomaehic diseases, whether of
long or short duration They are entirely vegeta-
BILE in their composition, and harmless to the gent
lest infant. One ingredient opens the pores Of the
skin; another is diuretic, and stimulates proper
action of the kidneys; n third is emolhent, loosen
ing phlegm and huulOr from the lungs; other prop.
critics warming and cathartis, and cleanse the
stomach and bowels from unhealthy secretiOns-
Their combined effect is, to regulate the impaired
functions of the system, and to produce health. It
is not asserted Moffat's Pills a -aii-that
they will cure all complaints--but under ordinary
circumstances they may be relied upon to cure
Nervous and sick Headache, Costiveness, Dyspep-
sia, Indigestion, Jsundce Liver and Bilious COM
plants, Colds, Scurvy, General Weakness &C.
They expressly made for these diseases Mil
lions upon millions of cures can be cited In no
single instance has complaint ever come TO our
knowledge where they have not operated as re-
commended.
The printed circular around each box fully ex-
plains the symptoms and effects of each disease,
specifies treatment, furnishes evidence, &c.

Proofs Of the Superior Quality
of the
American Watch
made at
wALTHAM. MASS.

The American Watch Company, of waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more durs-
BILE, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market They sre simpler IN
structure, and therefore stronger, and less likely
to be injured than the majority of foreign watch
es, which are composed of from l25 to 800 pieces,
while in an oldEnglish watch there are more than
TOO parts. How they run under the hardest trial
watches can have, is shown by the following let
ter:
PENN. RAILROAD COMPANY.
OFFICE GENERAL SUPERISrKNDExT,l
Altoona, Pa, Is Dec, 1866.
GESTLEMEs-The watches manufactured by
you have been in use on this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom we furnish
watches part of our equipment. There are
now some three hundred of them carried on our
line, and We consider them good and reliable
time keepers. Indeed, have great satisfaction
in saying your watches give US less trouble, and
have worn and do wear much longer without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road AS You are aware, formerly
trusted to those of English manufacture, Of Sc
knowledged good reputation; but olass they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service as yours.
In these statements / am sustained by my pre-
decessor. Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over a series of years. Respectfully,
EDWARD II. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent.
American Watch Co., Waltham-
We make now FIVE different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows;
Appleton, Tracy Co., Nathan Mass.
Waltham Watch Company, Matnam, mass
R.-,,s,, waItham, Mass.
WV Fu.rv Boston, Mass.
Home Watch Company, Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the Home
warranted American
Watch Company to be of the best material, on
the most approved principle and to pOssess every
requisite for reliable timekeeper. Every dealer
selling these watches is provided with the Com
pany's printed card Of guarantee, which should
feel sure that they are purchasing the genuine
ticle. There are numerous counterfeits and imi-
tations of our watches sold throughout the eoun-
try, and we would caution purchasers to be on
their guard against imposition.
ANY grades of waltham Watches may be pur-
chased Of watch dealers throughout the country.

A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE,


DR.. Maggiel is the founder of medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeebie the stomach and paraly the bow
els aud with whose external remedies the ulcerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills, and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DR.. Maggiers Pills and Salve have ushered in
new medical era. No more nauseating avalsn-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of Maggiel's Pills rectifes
the dsordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in a
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous.
In fact Maggers Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hes Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scalds, Chilbains, Cuts, and all abrassons
of the skin, Msggiels Sslve is infallible.

Heiioway's Vermiiuge ConfectiOns,

Which have almost entirely superseded
the old nauseous Vermifuges, to the de-
light of the poor little sufferers. 1t con
tains no calomel or other poisonous in
gradients.
So highly esteemed is this popular
Vermffugo by the profession, that all
intelligent physicians who know OF
them, prescribe them in preference to
other remedies, as not only more pleas
ant to take, but more effective to cure.
Parents and guardians, having the
care of children, should keep them as
family medicine; for they not only Grad
icate Worms-those pests of childhood
but correct any arrangement of the
digestive organs, so prevalent with chill
dren.

DR.. Holloway, some fifteen years ago,
witnessing the distress occasioned sickly
children in taking the nauseous vermiE

these remedies succeeded in separating
their active medical properties, pure,
tasteless and inodorous. Then, by
combining these with sugar, and mold
ing them into an agreeable eonfeetion,
formed the present POPULAR and RFFEc-

An EFFEcTUAL WoRK MEDIcISE.-BR0WN'S
VERMlFUGE C0MFITS, Or Worm Lorenges.
Much sickness, undoubtedly, with children and
adults, attributed TO other causes, is Occasioned
by worms, The "Vsrmifuge Comfts," al
though effectual in destroying worms, can 40
no possible injury to the most delicate child.
This valuable combination has been success
fully used by physicians, and found to be safe
snd sure in eradicsting worms, so hurtful to
children.
Children having Worms require immediate at
tention, neglect of the trouble often pro-
longed sickness.
Symptoms Of Worms in children are often over
looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause
irritation, which can be removed only by the use
of sure remedy. The combination of ingredi-
ents used in making Browns "Vermifuge Com
fits is such as to give the best possible effect with
safety,
