best possible advice. In the absence
medical skill, or even where II is procu
able, there are remedies on which exper
ence has given sovereign sway over certa
diseases. 1t is not every nostrum adyei
tised and garnished with laudatory Gel
tificates that proves efiicacious. Som
should have wide berth, being CON
posed of deleterious ingredients tina
cannot prove otherwise than baneful t
the system, while others are SO simpl
and harmless, the wonderful cures the,
are said to have wrought, owe their orr
gin to another source, as there is not
remedy in bucketful Of those VIII
have made themselves public benefactors
in the purity and excellence of his pre-
pared medicines, none can take rank o
Edward Wilder No. 2l5 Main street
Louisville, Kentucky His thorough
knowledge of pharmacy, the great care
and exactness with which he prepares
his compounds, the freshness and purity
of the materials and liquids used
all are calculated to inspire the
full confidence with which his
medicines are everywhere received
Although in innumerable cases they
cause the physician to be dispensed with
as unnecessary, yet they have the good
will of the profession, and are recon-
mended without hesitation for their pu-
rity and their efficacy in such cases as
they claim to cure. With case of these
medicines, one may consider himself safe
from assault or siege of disease, as
one of the old feudal chiefs in his
impregnable baronial castle. Mr..
Wilder is an extensive advertiser, and
duly informs the public exactly what his
remedies can achieve. In fact his brief
treatises on the diagnosis of diseases for
which he has provided remedies, are ex-
cellent reading for the heads of families,
and give ample warning of those pre-
scriptions and mixtures which, while ban
ishing the disease, leave the patient in
an enfeebled condition, and chronic
malady entailed far more excruciating
and distressing than the first. The IA
nous stomach bitters are everywhere
recommended. If men mast drink some
thing let them take that which will do
them good As a preventive, where ma
larious diseases are prevalent, they are
invaluable. They not only impart Wig
orous appetite, butimproye the digestion.
We know a case where general debility
and a severe cough were wasting away
once stalwart frame and iron con-
stitution, but were timely checked
by few bottles. In grateful apprecia-
ton, or because he has grown to like
them, our acquaintance drinks nothing
else, and takes his stated quantity inva-
riably before meals. As blood puri-
fer, the SdrsapariHd and Potash have
no rival, and cure is guaranteed where
the directions are followed. The
Compound Extract Of Wild Cherry is
prepared to relieve colds and coughs,
which neglected would assume the form
and soon pass into consumption, the
most dangerous and insidious of all
maladies. The Chill Tonic, which is
purely vegetable, is warranted to cure
permanently all those Affections
in various forms attended by chills.
As if to make his case of RENE
dies a thorough and perfect maya
zine agains, disease, the Family Pills
are recommended as a most admirable
purgative, and capable of curing as well
as preventing number OF maladies that
have their origin in weak stomach or
deranged alimentary canal For little
people, who cannot be too assiduously
guarded against the sudden attacks and
violent symptoms to which all infants
are liable, the Mothers Worm Syrup is
indispensable. II is more agreeable to
the palate than the villainous stuff that
is generally forced down the unwilling
throats of the little sufferers, and is not
resisted with the same determination. 1t
is the best worm destroyer yet invented.
In closing this article, somewhat ex-
tended, we cannot but express with con-
fidence an echo of the general opinion,
that Mr.. Edward Wilder's medicines
have done more to Danish quackery and
its deleterious nostrums than the whole
college Of physicians, while the great
good they have conferred upon the hu-
man family, in alternating and removing
disease, have constituted them deaths
bitterest foe, and their inventor a gene
raj benefactor of his race A cabinet of
his invaluable remedies should be in |
every house in the land, and no domestic |
should be considered COM
plete without it.
