Every sufferer from Consumption, in whatever stage, should try Dr. Rogers' Syrup ol Liverwort, Tar and Canchalagua, and prove to their own satisfaction that this disease can be cured, even if die symptoms are very discouraging. This medicine acts like a charm in subduing the Cough, and restor ing health to the whole system. For sale by Pritchard if Caldwell and Fisher if Heinitah, Charlotte. Price in large bottles $1. 9CT See the advertisement in another column of Stabler's "Good Medicines;" they are not recommended as "Cure Alls," but as efficient remedies tor the diseases named, hav ing received the highest encomiums Irom Physicians, Apothe caries and Store-keepers who have used them, sold them, and in a multitude ot cases heard of their good effects. Give them a trial snd tell youi Iricnds of the resnlt. The Reasok why it Succeeds. The Mustang Liniment attained its enormous popularity, and almost universal use, simply because it gives better satisfaction, accomplishes more good, relieves more pain, and heals more wounds and sores than any other preparation ever before offered to the afflicted. Every bottle that is used, speaks ior itself tells its own tale in the relict it gives, and the cure it effects. And then one who has suffered perhaps, long years with pain, without hope ot rebel and finds in thts Liniment an almost instantaneous remedy, cannot help but s;eak in its praise, and recommend it in ihe highest terms to ail that he sees suffering. It needs no other recemmendation than a trial. See advertisement in an other column. Medical TamawHV cannot be Controverted. One of ike moot stariling cases is narrated ol Dr. MLaaes Vermifuge i.y lr. John Under, of Lowell, Trumbull county, Ohio. The i-ae was thai of a young lady who had been very sick for eight years, and had consulted a number of physicians, who had treated it as one of Prolapsus Uteri. Dr. Butler was then called in, and for a time, believed with his predecessors that it was a case ot Prolapsus'. He was, however, soon forced to the con clusion that Ins patient was suffering from worms, and alter much persuasion, prevailed upon her to take two doses of Dr. M'Leac Vermikigt:. This medicine had the effect ol re moving from her a coundess number of the largest 6ize. Alter she paascsl them, her h'alth i;ninrdiatly returred. She is since married, and continues to enjoy excellent health. For sale by Pritchard &. Caldwell. i li:a 2-lnltt- Itctail Prices Current. CORRECTED WEEKLY.
