TZiiS Medicinal beverage is warranted not only
pure from any injurious property and ingre-
disat« hut of the very best possible quality. Its
great reputation i derived from its purity and de-
licious flavor. Its great utility as a medicine in all
oases of obstruction in the .
Kidneys and Bladder, Dyspepsia,
Gout and Rheumatism. Incipi-
ent Dropsy, Colic, Pain of
the Stomach and Bowels.
In general debility, sluggish circulation of the
blood, and exhausted vital energy, is acknowledged
to have no equal. To travellers and others it is
invaluable and indispensably necessary, dispelling
the annoyances frequently, engendered by change
of water, Ac., as aisn ague, fever and malaria of
every description.
The certificates of over four thousand Physician?
In England snd the United States proclaim its
merita.

Messrs. Simpson Brothers, Gsnts:—I have anal-
yzed^your Booth A Sedgwick's Medicated London
Gin, an find that it contains not only the ingredi-
ents usually found in the best kinds of Gii\, but also
other vegetat le matter which renders it more medi-
cinal and wholesome than the articles generally
sold under the name of Gin.

Dreadful Horror of Death, Night Sweats

with Temporary Suflbsion and loss of sight, Want of
Attention, Great Mobility,Restlesness, with Hor-
ror of society. Nothing is more Desirable to
such Patient than Solitude, and nothing
they urore Dz > ±d for Fear of Them-
selves; no Repose of Manner,
no Earnestness, no Specula-
tion, but a Hurried Tran-
sition from onequestion
t, another.
These symptoms, if allowed to go on—which this
medicine invarible removes—soon follows LOSS
OF POWER, FATUITY, AND EPILEPTIC FITS—
in one of which the patient may expire. Who can
say that these excesses are not frequently followed
by those direful diseases—INSANITY AND CON
SUMPTION? The records of the INSANE ASY-
LUM, and the melancholy deaths by CONSUMP-
TION, bear ample witness to the truth of these as-
sertions. In Lunatic Asylums the most melancho-
ly exhibition appears. The countenance is actual-
ly sodden and quite destitute—neither Mirth or
Grief ever visits it. Should a sound of the voice
occur, it is rarely articulate. t
"With woeful measures wan despair

IT may be used by persons ofthe most feeble Con-
stitution as wel 1 as those of the strongest frime
and with equal satety. Being pleasant and agree-
able to take, it can be administered, when frequent-
ly the nauseating compounds commonly prescribed
would not be retained on the patient's stomach.
1 "THE HYGIENIC PANACEA"
Is doubtless one of the most valuable discoveries to
afflicted humanity that has been produced in the
present centuary and one that renders "Mercurial
Cath rtics" entirely useless, as it will, in nearly
every species of disease, operate as effectually upon
the biliary Organs.
The inventor has for many years used the Hygi-
enic Panacea in private and hospital practice and
it will be found an invaluable remedy inrthe cure of
Dyspepsia costiveness Intermittent and' Remittent
Fevers Deranged Stomach Affections of the Lungs
Bronchitis Asthma Liver Complaint Diseased Kid-
neys, Ceughs, Colds, Fhenmaf'sm, Neuralgia, Gid-
diness, Spasms, Nerveousness, and all Diseases
arising from an impure state of the Blood, exposure
and Derangement of the Organs of the Chest and
Stomach.
NEVER FAILS TO EFFECT A CURE.
Without attempting to picture the evil effects
daily caused and entailed on the human family by
the use of Mercury, which thephysic>ac in prescrib-
ing knows to be a cure, but little preferable to the
disease a preparation wholesome, harmless and
equally efficacious will be received as a blessiogto
many a poor suffer ;r. The deleterious effect>7 of the
suhtile drugs which too many use to the destruction
of health and happiness,may be eradicated the by
use o( a fr-w bottles of the Hygienic Panacea, aud
thousands for whom life presents no longer any
charms may be relieved of their despondency and
restored to ro' ust health by it in a few week*.

BRAGG'S IMPROVED LINIMENT
fB^he greatest Medical Invention 01 the present
A day is undoubtedly, branov<« Arctic: Liximsxt
This wonder-worsing medicine is carrying the day
triumphantly wherever it is introduced. It needs
only atrial to establish its efficacy in all cases of
rhrumaTIAM. sriirr joints, paralysis,
old sorks, vkuraura. burns,

Such are the wonderful healing properties of
Bragg's Arctic Liniment, that it wid almost imme-

nd all diseases or the skin.
Some ofthe cures performed by this Liniment are
truly wonderful Mrs Hempstead, living on Wash-
ngton avenue St Louis, had been, for several years
confined to her bed by Rheumatism, and during a
great portiou of the time, suffered untold ajjony
from neuralgia of the face. After vainly endeavor-
ing to get relief from the prescriptions of many emi-
nent physici'tus, aud using a score of bottles of the
various nostrums, advertised to cure these diseases
she was induced by a friend to try the Arctic Lini-
ment,and the result was >ilmost magical. Before she !
had used a whole bottle,her pains were entirely gone !
and by the time she had osed six bottles, she was
completely restored to health. A whole Jottrnal
ightbe filled wit*" cures as wonderful as this, but
one is Hufiicient to establish the fact that the Arctic
Liniment will cure, when everything else fails. It
a iralui tor every wound,v and thousands who
havetested its virtues, now rejoice in freedom from
pain and disease.

Important to Females—Dr Cbeeaeman's
PiUa£ —The combinations of ingredients in thjse
Pills, is the result offe long and extensive practice;
they are mild in their operation, and certain of re-
storing nature to its proper channel. In every iu-
stance have the Pills proved successful. They are
certain to open those obstructions to which females
are liable, and bring nature into it* j:roper channel
to a healthy one no female can enjoy good health
unless she is regular; and whenever an obstruction
takes place, whether from exposure, cold, or any
cause, in general health immediately begins to de-
cline, and the want of such a remed> has beeu-the
cause ot so many consumptions among young fe-
males. Headache, pain in the side, palpitation of
the heart, loathing of food, and disturbed sleep, do
most always arise from the interruption of nasdre;
and whenever tha-t is the case, the Pills will invar:
ably reme- ly al 1 these evils. In all cases of painful
menstruation, or nervous and spinal affections in
the b*ck and limbs, lowness of spirits, hySferies,
see. Nor are they less efficacious in the cure' of
Leucorrhoea,commonly called the "Whites." These
Pills.should never be taken during pregnancy as thi y
would be sure to cause a miscarriage. Warranted
purely Vegetable, and free from anything injurious
to life or health. Full and explicit directions which
shoui; be read, accompany each box.
These pills are put up in square fiat boxes. Persoii
