Oil of Tannin,
Or, Leather Restorer.
A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY.
7JTTOST people know, lhat Skins and
A-TJl Hides are converted into Leather
by the use of Tannin extracted from cer
tain barks, he.
When the force and strength of the
Tannin is worn out, leather becomes
dead, hard, dry, brittle, cracked, covered
with a crust, fyc. THIS ALL KJVOIV.
To restore then life, softness, moistness,
strength, smoothness, and remove all
crusts, fly, or blister restore the tannin
This substance the leather never can re
ceive the second time; but the whole rtr-
fuejofitare in this article, THE OIL
of TANNIN which penetrates ihesliff-
est and hardest leather, if it has beei
twenty years in use; and if it tears easily
with the hngers, it imparts at once a
strength that is utterly incredible until
seen. It becomes like new leather, in all
respects, with a delightful softness and
polish, and makes all leather completely
and perfectly impervious to waier panic
ularly boots, shoes, carriage tops, har
ness, hose, trunks, and in fact all things
made of leather, giving a splendid polish
even higher than new leather has, and at
least doubling its wear and durability, in
whatever manner the leather is used.
These are Facts.
Those who will wear old shoes, groan
with corns, ride with old carriage tops
have old harness and throw them away
half used look filthy themselves, and all
about them expend double what is nc
cessary for articles of leather, to their
hearts' content, for what we care, if their
prejudices are so strong they will not try
a new discovery. We have no favors to
ask of them, they are the greatest suffer
ers, and we beg for nobody's custom or

Doct. John Sappington:
Dear sir, In IS34, if I mistake not,
one of ycur agent?, arrived at lhispWt
and left with me near a hundred Boxes
of your Anti-fever Pills. I sold ihem.
In the winter of ISSS and '39, prehap,
another agent arrived and I with a fiiend
of mine bought of him 100 boxes more
In January, 1S41, another agent (Mr.
Stephenson) made his appearance, and my
friend and I purchased of him all the
Pills he had, (he was gathering up all
left in this Slate and Virginia.) After
leaving here for home, he returned in a
day or two with another lot, which he
had gathered along the way, and wt
bought all of them. I am now nearly
out of those Pills again, and am at a com
plete loss to know where to obtain them.
The only resource left me is to apply to
you for direction.
I deal in Pills to a very considerable
extent, but yours are the only ones that I
can recommend on my own authority, or
that are worth having, in my estimation.
I would nolgivetwo c;nts for all the Pill
in America for my own use; but if sick
with the Billious, or Ague and Fever,
(which 90 much prevail here,) I would
not exchange your's for their weight in
gold. The truth is, I believe they never
have failed to cure, if taken according to
directions, where the case was curable by
human skill; and therefore approach infal
libility nearer than any remedy ever yet
discovered, for the diseases mentioned in
your advertisement. Respectfully, yours.

WORMS! WORMS!'-
Startling Facts.
JPTUNDREDS of children and adults
are lost yearly with Worms, when
some other cause has been supposed to, be
the true one. It is admitted by all Doc
tors thai smrrp a man. woman or child
exists but what are sooner or later trou
bled with worms, and in hundreds of ca
ses, sad to relate, a supposed fever, scar
latina. cold, or some other ailing carries
off the flowers oflhewhole human fami
ly while in truth they die of Worm!
and these could have been eradicated in
a day, by the use of a bottle of
Kolmstock's Vermifuge,
At the cost of a quarter of a dollar!
How sickening the thought lhat these
things should be and who can forgive
themselves for not trying this IVorm Ex
terminator, when they know that even if
the case was not worms, this remedy
could not by any possibility do hurl but
always good as a purgative lei me ur
ease be what it may. How important
then to use it, and who will dare take the
responsibility to do without it? Let eve
ry parent that is not a brute, ask them
selves this question in truth 61 sooerness.
In some of the besl families in the neigh
borhood of St. John's Park, it has been
extensively used.frcm the circumstance of
having eradicated a large quantity of
worms, after all other remedies had fail
ed, which was extensively known in lhat
part of the city.
In numerous case other complaints
were supposed to exist, and the persons
treated for fever, Sic. but finally a trial of
this Vermifuge discovered the true cause
of the sickness, by bringing away almost
an innumerable quantity of Worms, large
and small, and the persons recovered
with threat despatch. Instances ol this
kind might be cited to an immense ex
tent, but it is useless, one trial for 25
cents will show any one with astonish
ment the certain effects of this Vermifuge.
Caution. Never buy this article un
less it have "Dr Kolmslock's Vermifuge"
handsomely engraved on the outside label,
and the fac-simile of Comstock &i Co.,
thus Comstock Co., New York, are
the sole agents for it.

Health and long UJc.
inHE immense number of letters whicl
Dr. Moffat has received, and is daily
receiving from individuals in different
parts of the Union, in testimony of the ex
cellent virtues of the Life Pills and Phoe
nix Bitters, precludes the possibility of
Ins laying them before the public in
printed form.
The JLife Metlicincs
Have in many cases been recommended
and used by physicians. They have
slood the severest lesl, and proved the
most unfailing remedy ever offered to the
sufferer, under almost every disease. As
a general family medicine they are most
invaluable.
The Life Medicines have been used
with success in almost every disease to
which mankind is liable, and for billious
and liver complaints, with their many
well known attendants, billious and sick
headache, pain and oppression after
meals, giddiness, dizziness, singing noise
in ihe head and ears, drowsiness, heart
burn, loss of appetite, wind, spasms, &cc,
they are acknowledged to be vastly supe
rior lo any thing ever before offered to
the public, and for those of a full habit of
body, they will prove invaluable; while
asa general family aperient, for either
sex, they cannot fail to ensure the univer
sal satisfaction.
The efficacy of the
lite pijljls
And IMieniv Hitters
Is most certain, if freely given on the at
tack of fever, influenza, measles, sore
throat, recent colds, with cough, and oth
er inflammatory disorders. In rheuma
tism and chronic complaints they have al
so performed the most extraordinary
cures, when used with perseverance.
Since the first introduction of Dr. Mof
fat's Life Medicines to his fellow citizens,
they have in every case, fully maintained
the high character they so well deserved.
Patients who had for years drawn on a
miserable existence, and many who had
lost the use of their limbs by rheumatism
and paralysis, have been restored lo
health, strength and comfort, after the u
sua! remedies had been found useless. Its
astonishing and almost miraculous effects
have also been experienced, in tbe cure ol
nervous and rheumatic pains of the head
and face, paralytic affections, contrasted
and stiffjoints, glandular swellings, pains
of the chest and bones, chronic rheuma
tism, palpitation of the heart, difficult res
piration, &ic.
Complaints arising from a vitiated
state of the blood are easily subdued by
the powerful efficacy of ihese mild and
salutary medicines.
In addition to the numerous testimonials
in their favor, which accompany the above
medicines, many references in this vicini
ty of their beneficial effects can be giver
on application to the subscriber, who of

npHESK Pills have long been known
and appreciated for their extraordina
ry and immediate powers ol restoring
perfect health to persons suffering under
nearly every kind of disease lo which the
human frame is liable.
They are particularly recommended to
all those persons who are afflicted with
any kind of a chronic or lingering com
plaint, as there is no medicine before the
public which has so natural and happy an
effect upon the system, in correcting the
stomach and liver, and to the formation of
healthy chyle, and thereby purifying the
bluod.
They are acknowledged by the hun
dreds and thousands who are using thrm
fo be not only the mostgmild and pleasant
in fheir operation, but the most perfectly
innnceul, safe and efficient medicine ever
offered to the public. Thoe who once
make a trial of these pills never afterward

Thoe who have suffered and are weary
of suffering with this distiessing com
plaint, will find
Peters' Wgctabtc I'ills
A remedy at once certain and immediate
in its effects. One single dose of the pills
taken as soon as the headache is fell com
ing, will cure il in one hour entirely.
As a remedy in summer and bowel
complaints, they display their wonderful
powers lo admiration, and are far superior
to any ihing in use for those complaints.
In Dyspepsia and Liver complaint they
stand unrivalled.
Many have been cured in a few weeks,
after having suffered under the dreadful
complaint for years.
In habitual costiveness they are deci
dedly superior to any vegetable pill ever
brought before the public; and one 50
cent box will establish their surprising
virtues and place them beyond the reach
of doubt in ihe estimation of every indi
vidual. These are invaluable in nervous and hy
pocondriacal affections, loss of appetite,
and all complaints to which females alone
are subject.
They are mild in their action and carry
almost immediate conviction of their uti
lily from the first dose. They may be ta
ken by persons of any age, and the lVeble,
ihe infirm, the nervous and delicate are
strengthened by their operation, because
they cltar the system of bad humors, qui
et nervous irratibilily and invariably pro
duce sound health.
Upwards of three hundred and seventy
thousand boxes of these inestimable pills
have been sold within the last 12 months
in three States alone, and more than three
times the same quantity in other States.
As an anti bilious medicine no family
should be without them. A single trial
of them is more satisfactory lhan a thou

New York, Feb. 9, 1S42.
Dear Sir Will you oblige me with an
other bottle of your excellent Liniment?
It is certainly the best of ihe kind I have
ever seen. It has cured entirely my son's
knee, about which 1 was so uneasy, and I
have found it productive of immediate re
lief in several cases of external injury in
my family. A few evenings since, my
youngest child was seized with a violent
attack of croup, which was entirely remo
ved in twenty minutes by rubbing her
chest and throat freely with the exteroal
remedy. I think you ought to manufac
ture this Liniment for general use, instead
of confining the use of it, as you have
heretofore done, to your particular ac
quaintances. Yours, truly.
