fJpHE immense and increasing popula
rity of these pills, is another proof of
t lie infallibility of the old adage, thai
"truth is powerful and will prevail." Oth
er pills are only puffed, but Or. Peters' are
purchased and praised, and recommended
until the demand for them has become al
most universal.
Or. Peters would impress this fact up
on ihe pnblie, that his pills are not a quack
medicine; but a scientific compound ol
simples, which has been the result of m;i
ny years intense application to a profes
siou in which he was regularly bred;
hence il is as popular with the regular fic
ully as with the people at large.
One of the many peculiar virtues of the
vegetable pills, is, that while very power
ful in their t-(Verts, they are particularly
mild and gentle in their action. Unlike t lie
generality of medicines, their application
is never ullended with nausea oi griping.
Inters' Z'vgciablc Myitis
Are now regarded by ilicsc '.viia l::;ve hnl
an opportunity to decide upon their mer
its, as an inestimable public blessing.
U ilhout an exception in any age or coun
try, no medicine has spread with such rapi
dity, and given such universal satisfaction
Prepared by JOSEPH PRIESTLY
PETERS, M. O., No. 129 Liberty street,

in tin boxes, price 50 cents per box.

They are a peculiarly mild, yel efficient
purgative medicine; and produce liule, if
any, griping or nausea. 1 have prescri

Eitvact of a Utter from Dr. Joseph Wil
liams, of Burlington, Vl. July yf g37.
I cordially recommend Peters' pills as a
mildly effectue, ami in no case dangerous
family medicine. They are peculiarly in
fluential in costiveness and all the usual
diseases of ihe digestive organs.

I never knew a sintile oatenl nu di, I,

TONIC MIXTURE,
FOR THE CURE OF
Intermittent or'Bgue and JFevcr.
o
rrnillS mixture purifies the blood, rc
moves the ague and consequent fever.
The blood is made from the chyle oi
contents of the stomach, has ils red col
our and vitality imputed to il by the
action of the lung" and oxygen ga, which
the atmospheric air contains. The Samp
son gland of the system, the liver, se
eretes the bile, from the blood carried lo
lhat organ through the Vena Portarum.
These Viscera then are the i!i!c.T.:r2!
annai ai'js; !; which the blood is made and
preserved, and should be the Physician's
watchword mark well the secretions.
This mixture is harmless, and may be
given lo infants with pet feet safely, as its
composition is solely Vegetable. Read
the certificates below and annexed letter.
1 do hereby certify, that in 1837, my
son Thomas was attacked with intermit
tent or Ague and fever. 1 applied to a
respectable physician in Portsmouth, he
gave him medicine, but in a few days the
ague returned. 1 then applied lo a physi
cian atSomerlon, heprescribpd.bin found
no relief. 1 then applied to Dr. Cohoon,
and one bottle of tonic mixture made spee
dy and permanent cure. Given under my
hand this 25th of Febitiary.

I have acted as A sent for the sale of
Dr. Cohoon's tonic mixture, and can,
from personal observation recommend it
o ihe public for the cure of Ague and
Fever, as 1 have sold is to those who had
been plagued with the ague a id fever lot
many months, and tried many other
remedies without success, when one bottle
ol the mixture m ule a speedy cure. Dr.

My Dear Sir:
1 thought to have answered your note
sometime since, but negligence is the
only reason I have to offer. 1 have procu
red you an Agent lo sell your medicine ai
Colerain, Vm. J. Hnrdy, E-q., merchant
of lhat place. I handed over to Mr.
Hardy nine bottles of your mixture, and
keep 3 myself; which I will account lo
you for. Mr. Hardy wishes a further sup
ply, say 3 dozen hot lies. I have used 4
bottles of your Tonic Mixture in the
course of 12 months in my family, and il
has succeeded in every case when every
other medicine lhat 1 had tried had failed:
and I say it is preferred to any medicine
lhat I have ever used for the ague & fever.
1 am yours truly.

Tomato and Slippery Elm
PIIjIiS.
nnHEREare many family medicines
now before the public, some of w hich,
from their intrinsic virtues have j"tl,
gained the confidence and gratitude of
thousands; hut in the light of contrast, and
in the scale of curative merit, Or. Harrell's
Tomato and Slippery Elm Pills stand
pre-eminently above them all; nor is :m
apology off. ird for taking this high
ground, unless it is the fact of their supe
perior, and almost miraculous effects in the
cure of diseases. They prodme, when ta
ken, a deep and 1 isting impression that
they stand at the head ol all other prepai -ed
medicines of ihe day. Fevers, Liver
affecuom", Jaundice, head-ache, loss ol
appetite, costiveness, female cpmplaint s,
and every disease within the reah of hu
man means; yield readily to the power
ful, yet gentle operation of these pills.
As a cathartic S y are copious and free,
as an aperient they are mild and certain,
as a tonic they are prompt and invigorating,
as on alterative they are superior to Calo
mel or any other known remedy, and as a
purifyer of the blood they are unequalled
in the history of medicines. There is no
disease can withstand their life-giving en
ergy when taken in time, or interrupt tlo
system at all when the)' are administered
as it preventative. Ouriug sickly sea
sons, and l lie prevalence of epidemicks,
their occasional use will preserve the
body from attacks of disease. 50 ten l
per box. 54 per qross.
Onipgisls, Hooksi llers, and Merchants
are requisite lo become agents for the
sale ol the above'medicines.
All orders (post paid) directed lo Or.
