A oursrlos TO THE RrADna.

If you were about to embark in the medicine
business, would the merit or an article Of your
confidence in advertising inspire you so to do, and
would you devote years Of application without q
thorough investigation. will take upon myself
the responsibility Of answering this question, al
though have heard thousands remarks that "al
that is necessary Is to ADVERTISE" have never yet
seen any but would hesitate.
Many intelligent and persevering men have been
induced to embark in the business, believing they
had this essential element have expended thousands
of dollars in bringing 1t before the community, to
find in short time that their article was not sue
cessfnl In majority Of cases, and failure was the
inevitable consequence.
Advertising does not make merit, 1t does not
make money; however, 1t makes merit known, and
merit makes a reputation and money.
| full well know that there are thousands who
are enyious OF the success Of others, and who sell
dom speak iu complimentary manner Of the merits
Of the article or Of the enterprise Of any but will
remark that do not believe there is Druggist or
Physician In the United States or the world who, II
he had as good q remedy as mine, woud hesitate
to pursue the same course adopted by me.
Ny Buchu is not a Patent Medicine, and with
hold no knowledge of Its ingredients. The remedy
is perfectly SAFE My Laboratory and the mode Of
preparation has been inspected by thousands Of
Physicians and Druggists, who expressed them
selves gratiaed.

The science of medicine, like the Doric column,
stands simple pure, and majestic, having fact for
It's basis induction for Its pillar and truth alone for
its Capital.
contend there is no business where these quail
hcatons are more requisite as medicines are
brought in contract with the intelligent and drug
gists everywhere. 1t Is often remarked that which
benefit one may be Of no advantage to another
How mistaken the idea
A blood-puriher for one is a bood-puriher for ALL
diuretic for one, diuretic for ALL
A narcotic for one, narcotic for ALL
Apurgatlve for one, purgatve for all.
Just as much so as wholesome food for one is
wholesome for all, with no more difference than
that some constitutions require more than others,
and that persons in disease are given to despond-
ency-expecting in few days or weeks and per-
haps with bottle Of medicine, to be restored to
health If not to youth and beauty. These persons
rarely recover, lacking patience They give moth
ing fair trial. considering few dollars expended
for the benefit Of their health waste Of money
The same individuals may have been years in
breaking down their constitutions, and have proba
bly, expended thousands of dollars in dress and dis
sipation, and thought nothing of 1t. Such forget
that GOOD HEALTH IS TRUE WEALTH.
With upward Of 10000 recommendatory letters
and unsolicited certificates have never resorted to
their publication. In this case shall, however ap-
pend few remarks, trusting they may be appreci-
ated. am to the afflicted and suffering humanity,

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.

In the year 1854 the writer embarked in the Drug
business IN the City OF Philadelphia, and while
thus engaged made several experiments in regard
to the most desirable mode Of preparing Fluid Kx-
tracts. His efforts being successful-the articles
being approved ard used by the Medical Faculty
he was deslrous Of placing them before the public
but hesltated for some time before concluding to
resort to newspaper advertising, knowing Of the
preudlces existing against using advertised Aedi-
eints But through the advice Of friends and those
who had used the preparations, this objection was
overcome. 4r
Commencing In small way, after IS years ex-
ertions the popularity Of my articles has extended
to all parts ofthe United States, and widely through
foreign countries-and this in the face Of much Op.
position. Every means has been resorted to by un-
princpled dealers since their merit and success
have been known-such as advertising large bottles
at less price, censuring all other preparations and
even copying my advertisements but am happy
to state that out of the many who have resorted TO
this, none have been successful.
Knowing that many may read this article who
are macquanted with me, append remarks from
those Of my native city whose names are known in
all parts Of the world.

We know of no more eminent and successful drug
gist in the United States than II. 7. Helmbod, 194
Broadway, New York city We are certain there
are none in these United States who patronze prin-
ters ink to a greater extent. We are positive IN
the assertion, and have no hesitancy In saying that
each and every one of helmbolds preparations
possess all the curative powers claimed for them;
while we are not sure but among all the proprie-
tary medicines in existence, Helmbold's ranks as
first and foremost, not only among the people, but
among druggists and regular physicians. The one
preparation alone, and known among medicine as
q nHelmbolds Fluid Extract Of Buchu," has made
him the popular man he is, and has so placed his
medicines as to be without rival or even an equal.
This one medicine alone-Helmbold's Buchu--ls 80
pure in ita Ingredients and 80 positive in Its cura-
tive powers, as to overcome the prejudices Of the
regular fraternity and to such an extent that regu-
lar physicians in New York and elsewhere are freely
recommending 1t for all diseases Of the kidneys and
kindred organs, for female weaknesses, and for dis
eases conIequent upon change Of climate and
habits Of dissipation.
Dr. Helmbold, besides being the most liberal ad-
vertser in the world, has the handsomest and most
complete drug establishment in the world; While
we can guarantee to any Of our readers who may
be sojourning in New York kindly welcome from
not only the Doctor, but from his courteous assist
ants.
This, as well as the other medicines Of Dr.. Helm
bold, can be found at all our drug stores,

A SPLENDID ORNAMENT ON BRoADwAY.-It must
be pleasant thing for that venerable individual,
the Oldest inhabtant TO run back in recollection to
the days when our now palace-beautifed Broadway
was in much more crude condition than 1t is in
these days Of progressive utility. Such improve
ments have taken place within the past few years
in the appearance of our avorite thoroughfare that
Il seems as If some arch enchantress had produced
the change by one motion Of her magic wand.
All along that great avenue, from Bowling Green
To Union Square, are to be seen some Of the most
magnificent structures that ever sprung from the
trail of art and architecture. And imposing as they
are externally they are equally so Within Some
of them are fitted up in style which would draw
tears of ecstacy and admiration from the eyes Oh
the most extravagant Parisans whose life is devoted
to the study Of luxury and magnihcence generally.
Recently, another novel improvement has been
ushered into existence on Broadway. We refer to
the splendid new Temple of Pharmacy uhe doors
of which were for the first time opened to the pub
lie but few days ago. of Mr.. H. T. Helmbold at
No 694 Broadway, and adjoining the Metropolitan
Hotel Ever since its opening day it has been fa-
vored with full houses Ito use the language Of the
dramatic crtics its unique spendor daily and night
ly attracting large crowds of admirers.
The entire building is 2s feet 'front.' 2S4 deep, and
five stories in height The street floor has been
mos tastefuly fitted up the front half being used
as a retail department, and the rear portion for
wholesale business and as laboratory for the
manufacture Of his celebrated Fluid extract Buchu,
Fluid Extract sarsaparilla, etc. There is probably
no drug store in the world more beautiful and lux
uriousy furnished than this new acquisition to our
Broadway attractions.
Connected with this establishment Is reception
room, which is intended for the comfort Of those
Obliged to wait while the prescriptions they desire
to purchase are being prepared This is something
which has been desderatum and which Mr., Helm
bold has supplied. The room is fnrniseed with
costly lounges, sofas, and velvet carpets. Taking
this new establishment altogether, it deserves to
rank as one Of the magnihcences Of our city.
