This is another preparation of still greater ef-
icacy. 1t may be applied By itself, but is most
affective when used with the Ambrosia Oil, espe-
cially wien the hair is falling out very rapidly.

MEssRs. STERLING & BLooMER:
GENrLENEN-I feel it my duty to make you
aware of the effects of yonr Ambrosia Oil. Dur
Ing the riots in New York 1 was badly beaten
about the head and face, which caused me a long
spell of sickness, during which time lost ell NV
hair and whiskers. l was compelled to wear a
wig for some two years and half During
that time / tried number of the advertised hair
preparations in the market, and received no bene-
fit whatever. was advised by a brother Broad
way police officer to use Sterling's Ambrosia Oil
and Scalp Renovation, which used about eight
months at the expiration of that time was OBJ
liged to discard my wig. At the present time l
have as fine q head of hair as any gentleman
may wish for, all from the of eight bottles OF
AmbroBia Oil The above facts are well known
by all my brother Broadway police officers, and
as well known by many of my friends.
Very respectfully,
JOHN R. WRIGHT,

How the Ready Relief Acts I!

In a few minutes the patient win feel slight
tinoling irritation, and the skin becomes red
dened; if there is much distress in the stomach,
the Relief will assist nature in removing the
offending cause-a general warmth is felt
throughout the entire body, and its dihusiye
stimulating properties rapidly courses through
every vein and tissue of the system arousing the
slothful and partially paralyzed glands and
organs to renewed and healthy action perspira-
ton follows, ana the surface of the body feels
increased heat. The sickness at stomach colds,
chis, headache, oppressed breathing, the sore
ness of the throat, and all pains, either inter-
nally or externally, rapidly subside, and the pa
tent falls into tranquil sleep, awakes refresh
ed inyigorated cured.
1t will be found that in using the Relief ex-
ternally either on the spine or across the kid
news, or over the stomach and bowels, that for
several days after a pleasing warmth will be
felt, showing the length of time it continues its
influence over the diseased parts.

~ " ~ - ~ IVA IL u " ~ :
For the radical cure of Asthma, Bronchitis, Ca.
tarrh, and all affections of the Lungs, Throat,
and Air Passages; for general and special de-
rangements of the Nervous System; for disord
ers of the Blood; and for all functional disorders
of the Stomach and Bowels,
The Prepared Prescription increases the
strength and deepens the color of the pale blood.
1t subdues the Chills and Fever and diminishes
the EKpectoration. II checks the night sweats,
always, in from seven to fourteen days. The ap-
petite is invigora'ed, and the patient rapidly
gains flesh; the cough and the dinicult breathing
are speedily relieved; the sleep becomes calm
and refreshing; the evacuations regular and
uniform. All the general symptoms of Con-
sumption, Asthma, Bronchitis, &C., disappear
with Q really astonishing rapidity.
The Prescription should be used in every Dis
ease, by whatever name known, in which there is
exhibited any arrangement of either the Nervous
or the Blood Systems. 1t is unequalled in Fe-
male Disorders, Seanty or Suppressed Menses,
"Whites," &c.
The Prepared Prescription is both the Best and
the most Economical Medicine that can be taken.
The average dose is two teaspoonsful taken once
day. The patient never requires, under ans
circumstances, to use Cough Mixtures'' for the
Cough: "Expectorsnts" for the Expee to alton
''Tonics for the Appetite or the Weakness; Iron
for the Blood Anodynes for the Nervous Irrita-
ton; Acids for the Night Swests; or Whisky or
Cod Liver Oil for the Wasting. It's Specific Ac-
tion is upon the Constitutional Condition, and,
through this Condition, upon the Whole Series
of symptoms.
Statements from Patients, &c.
COLLEGE HILL, ClscISSArI-I was in the last
stage of Consumption. In ten days after taking
the Prescription, my Chills, Night Swests, Fever,
