a GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE

MANI EFOCh - D2kkDI CI n K.
DR.. Maggiel is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeebie the stomach and paralyze the bow
els and 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.. MaggiePs Pills and Salye have ushered in
a. new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of MaggiePs Pills rectifies
the disordered 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 Maggieps Bilious, Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scalds, Chlblans, Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin, Maggiel's Salve is infallible.

ASSESSMENTS OF STOCK.

their share of the profits from its business. =
ASSESSMENTS OF STOCK.
Only five per cent of the stock viii be required
to be paid in at the time of subscription and sub
sequent calls viii not exceed ten per cent. per
month. After the first payment of five per cent,
no further call will he made until Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars shall hive been subscribed
The company confidently believe that they win
not be compelled to call in than fifty or six
ty per cent. of the subscriptions in order place
the line in complete working order.
DIVIDENDS.
From carefully prepared estimates, based upon
the amount of business done by the companies
now in operation, and giving them equal share
of the business between competing points, the
company confidently believe that large and re-
munerative dividends can be made /; and they
further believe that taking into sideration the
great advantages which they will possess in q
short and direct route, they will be able to secure
nearly all the business along the line, which will
place the stock at n high premium, and make il
one of the best investments to be found.
WHEN It'd BE DONE.
The company propose to commence work at an
early day, and to push it forward as rapidly as
possible, and intend to have their lines completed
without delay.
DISTRIBUTION OF DIRECTORS.
The stockholders will be represented by Direc-
tors at the principal points of the line.
THE PROSPECT
Is most fattering The location of the line is
one of the best In the country. 1t passes throug
a large number of importantcities and towns where
commercial intercourse is large and rapidly in
creasing. The country along the river is receiv-
ing constant accessions of wealth and population,
and these will bring an increase of trade which
must correspondingly add largely every year to
the business and profits of the company. All the
old telegraph companies throughout the countrv
are now, and have been, paying satisfactory div
idends, capital stock that has been repeated
eddy watered. If these companies, controlled BY
a few wealthy individuals owning nearly all the
stock. can do this, it is quite reasonable to sup.
pose that n company, owned and managed by lis
patrons, with its lines so desirably located, and
with limited amount of stock, can at least dc
equally as WELL sE a @a =

Proofs of the Superior Quality
of the
American Watch

made at
WALTHANG, MASS.
The American Watch Company, of Waltham,
Mass, respectfully submit that their Watches are
cheaper, more accurate, less complex, more dura-
BILE, and better adapted for general use, and more
easily kept in order and repaired than any other
watches in the market. They are simpler in
structure, and therefore stronger, and less likely
to be injured than the majority of foreign watch
cs, which are composed of from lbs TO 800 pieces,
while in an oldEnglish watch there more than
70o parts. How they run under the hardest trial
watches can have, SIS shown by the following let
ter:
PENN. RAILROAD COMPANY.
+ OFFICE GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT,
Altoona, Pa, Is Dec, 1866
Z GENrLENEN-The watches manufactured by
you have been in useyen this railroad for several
years by our enginemen, to whom furnish
watches as part of our equi pment 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 nnuchlonger without re-
pairs than any watches we have ever had in use
on this road. As you aware, formerly
trusted to those of English zmanafaeture, of ae-
knowledged good reputation; but as class they
never keep time as correctly, nor have they done
as good service rs yours.
In these statements 4 am sustained by my pre-
deeessor, Mr.. Lewis, whose experience extended
over a series of years. Respectfully,
EDWARD II. WILLIAMS,
General Superintendent.
American Watch Co., Waltham.
We make now Ave different grades of watches,
named respectively as follows:
Appleton, Tracy & Co., wattham, Mass
Waltham Watch Company, Waltham, Mass.
p S Bartlett, Waltham, Mass.
VIM Ellery, Boston, Mass
Home W atch Company, Boston, Mass.
All of these, with the exception of the Home
Watch Company, are warranted by the American
Watch Company to be of the best material, on
the most approved principle, and to possess every
requisite for reliable e-keeper. Every dealer
selling these watches is provided with the Com
pany's printed card of guarantee, which should
| accompany each watch sold, so that buyers may
feel sure that they purchasing the genuine ar
tieie. There are numerous counterfeits and imi-
tations of our watches sold throughout the coun-
try, and we would caution purchasers to be on
their guard against imposition. FF E#E
