Doctor W. EVANS'
SOOTHING SYRUP
For children Teething,
PREPARED BY HIMSELF.
To Mothers and Nurses.
fin UK passage of the Teelh through t!ie
gums produces troublesome and dan
gerous symptoms. It is known by moth
ers thai there is great irritation in the
mouth and gums during this process. Hi
gums swell, the secretion of saliva is in
creased, the child is seized with frequent
and sudden fits of crying, walchings, start
ing in the sleep, and spasms of peculiar
parts; the child shrieks with extreme vio
lence, and thrusts its fingers into its month
If these precursory symptoms are not spee
dily alleviated, spasmodic convulsions uni
versally supervene, and soon cause the
dissolution of the infant. If mothers who
have their little babes afilicted with these
distressing symptoms, would apply Ur
William Evans's Celebrated Soothing
Syrup, which has preserved hundreds of
infants when thought past recovery, from
being suddenly attacked with that fatal
malady, convulsions.
d real blessing to Mothers.
Dr, W Evans celebrated Soothing Syrup
fur children cutting their teelh.
This infallible remedy has preserved
hundreds of Children, w hen thought past
recovery, from convulsions. As soon as
the Syrup is rubbed on the gums, the child
will recover. This preparation is o in
nocent, so efficacious, and so pleasant, that
no child will refuse to let its gums be
rubbed with it. When infants ate at the
age of four months, though there is no ap
pearawce of teeth, one bottle of the
Syrup should be used on the gums, to
open the pores. Parents should never be
without the Sj'rup in the 'nursery where
there are young children; for if a child
wakes in the night with pain in the gums,
the Syrup immediaiely gives ease by open
ing the pores and healing the gums; there
by preventing Convulsions, Fevers, Sic.

To the Agent of Dr. Lvans' Soothing
Syrup: Dear Sir The great benefit
afftrded to my suffering infant by 3 our
Soothing Syrup, in a case of protracted
and painful dentition, must convince every
feeling parent how essential an early ap
plication of such an invaluable medicine
is to relieve infant misery and torture My
infant, while teething, experienced such
acute sufferings, that it was attacked with
convulsions, and my wife and family sup
posed that death would soon release the
babe from anguish till we procured a bot
tle of your Syrup; which as soon as ap
plied to the gums a wonderful change was
produced, and after a few applications the
child displayed obvious relief, and by con
tinuing in its use. I am glad to inform
you, the child has completely rerovered,
and no recurrence of (li.it awful complaint
has since occurred; the teelh are emana
ting daily and the child enjoys perfect
health. . I giveyou my cheerful permission
to make this acknowledgment public, and
will gladly uive any inform ition on this
circumstance. WM. JOHNSON.

fTfIlE following was forwarded to Dr. Peters,
H by a highly respectable Planter of JfakB
No. Ca., March 3d, 1838 :
Dr. Petess. Dear Sir: By request of your
a'o-cnt, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines re
specting the almost miraculous effects of your
pills; and I would add, that you may make use of
them, in connection with my name, in any manner
you deem propen I speak of their merits from
experience, as I and my family have taken up
wards of thirty boxes in three years; and so great
are the benefits we have- received from them in
c-cneral,thvit I would rather purchase them at ten
dollars a box than have my house without them. I
will not enumerate the afflictions they have re
lieved us of; but I can assure you they were many,
and of very apposite natures, which has fully
proved to me that your medicine is a simple puri
fier of the system, and therefore equally the ene
my of every disease. I will mention one case.
I have a sister who had been for a long period se
verely afilicted with dropsy in the chest and was
brought by it to the very verge of the grave. She
was attended by the most eminent physicians that
money could procure; but all their efforts to restore
her to health, or even to mitigate her sufferings,
were fruitless; and accordingly, we all considered
her immediate death as inevitable. I5y good for
tune, however, as she was in thi3 situation, ex
pecting every day to be her last, your pills were
introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal
pable were their effects that three doses visibly
relieved her, and in less than three months she
was perfectly restored to hcalthi This case I and
all who were witness of it, (but more especially
the suffering party,) considered to be the next
thing to mfradous; and yet I should mention
many more of an equally desperate nature, in
which your pills were equally successful in rescu
ing the patients from the jaws of death. Need I
add that the popularity of your medicine amounts
to enthusiasm in this section of the country? but
Ibis I presume you know from the immense quan
tity you dispose of. I may mention, however,
that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard
an indivividual complain cf its effects My resi
dence is l"2 miles from Raleigh, on the road to
Fay tteville. I am, with sentiments of regard,
yourob'dt servant, A. G. HANKS.
SitfnVc, Va. Ftb. 7, 1838.
To Dr. Peters. Dear Sir : It will no doubt
be gratifying to you to hear of one among the
many of the wonderful cures which have been
effected by your 'medicine in this placet For
lim e years or upwards I had been awfully afilict
ed with the liver complaint, dyspepsia and en
largement of the spleen. My hebdominal mus
cles were greatly contracted, and it was really
frightful to contemplate the size of my spleen.
Added to thtse, I had costiveness and piles for
my constant companions, and in short, the multi
tude of my afflictions bad brought me to the brink
h etcrnityi During the entire period of my suf
ferings 1 was attended by various physicians, but
their prescriptions at best, only afforded a tempo
rary relief, so that I was in a state almost amount
ing to despair, when it so happened (and 1 bless
(Jod for the circumstance) that I was advised by
a friend (who had himself been greatly benefitted
by their use,) to make trial of your pills. I did
so, and the result was that from the first week of
their application I began to improve a pace, and
am at the present writing in the enjoyment of
perfect health. I suppose that in all 1 have used
about fifteen dollars worth ot your medicine. 1 ou
may make whatever use you wish of this letter,

Suffolk, Va. Feb, 7, 1S33. .
This is to certify that 1 am intimately acquaint
ed with Mr. Fin. Holmes, and am fully aware
that the above document, through all its circum
stances, is perfectly correct" My means for being
so positive of this is, that J Fin. Holmes is one of
my nearest neighbors, and the medicine of which
he speaks was purchased at my office. I would
add that this is only one of a number of cases
equally desperate, which have come within my
knowledge as being cured by 'Dr. Peters' Vege
table Pills." I need scarcely say that they are
more popular he. re than any other medicine, and
such 1 have no doubt will be the case wherever
they are known. AKTH UK SMITH, P. M,
CLarXetie, N. (J. Nov. 11, 1837.
Dear Sir. Your Pills are so extremely popu
lar here, that the people are but few, and far be
tween who think of using any other. Calomel,
blue pills, and the whole catalogue of patent mi
dicines which were in vogue in these parts, have
vanished before them, like mists before the sum
I have recently purchased two thousand boxes
from your general agent, Mr. Harrison, and there
has been such a demand for them, that I believe I
will shortly have to trouble you with another or

I'cterftburx, Va. Jan. 9, 1837.
This will certify that I was afflicted for several
years with Chronic Hepatitis, (Liver Complaint,)
and after using various preparations of mercury,
&c. as prescribed by physicians, without any ef
fect, that Peters' Vegetable Pills have produced
a complete curei
My complaints were pain in the head and side
dizziness, sourness of stomach, capricious nppe
tite, furred tongue, costiveness, &c, which have
all been removed. I am fully convinced that my
life has been preserved by the use of Peters' Pills,
and in many other cases I have known them to be
used with eqaully beneficial results.

Union Jlott, RuXeigh N. C. Jnril9, 1837.
Dear Siri Having been for several years af
flicted with Liver Complaint and general debility,
I had recourse to your inestimable Vegetable Pills,
and the result is that I am now in the enjoyment
ot excellent health. 1 am never without them in
my own family, and I descant upon their virtues
to all my friends; but the latter is nearly labor in
vain, as they are already extremely popular herei
J. C. I3LATCHFORD.
Greensborough, N. C. Jan. 1837i
This will certify that my wife was severely af
flicted with Liver Complatnt and Dyspepsia for
ten years, and had nearly lost the use of her right
arm that she had been under the care of several
eminent physicians, and made use of a variety of
popular medicines, alt oi which tailed in the de
sired effect until she had recourse to your Vege
table fills, ten boxes ot which nave completely
restored her to health.
I myself am troubled with Head-ache and Colic,
and have never known an instance in which your
mis uta not anora me speeay renei.
IV. IV, fFOODBURN.
Mecklenburg county, Va, Ftb. 4, 1837i
Dear Sir. I have been using your Pills for
the last eighteen months, and have this day pur
chased twelve dozen boxes of Mr. Harrison, who
wished me to transmit you my opinions touching
their merits. For myself, I never found any me
dicine that has done me so much good; but 1 have
yet higher authority in their favour, for I have
sold a great number of boxes to the physicians
around here, all of whom have expresssd them
selves highly gratified with their eflectsi This of
course has made them very popular here; indeed,
so much so, that they are to be found in almost
every dwelling. Make what Use you please of
this: and I wish it could he made yet more flat
tering as I feel that nothing too favorable can be
said of your Pills. Sincerely yours,
JOHN FINCH.
New Glasgow,. tyihcrst co, Va. Nor. 8, 1837.
This is to certify that I have seen Peters' Vege
table Pills used in a case of dropsy, and am pre
pared to substantiate, that a most perfect cure was
the issue.
About 8 months ago, my boy, a slave, was ta
ken down by the above complaint, and accord
ingly I called in a physician, but he afforded him
norelief. I then had recourse, by the recommen
dation of a foimer sufferer, to the pills alluded to;
and the effect was, that in less th'au three months,
the patient was as well as ever.

Fihnton, N. C. April 10, 1838.
Dear SiRk I have been using your pills in my
family, for the last twelve months, with the great
est satisfaction. In Bilious Fever, Fever and
Ague, Dyspepsia, Sick Head ache, Costircness,
and Debility, they are indeed invaluable. 1 have
to add in their favor, that I have recommended
them to many of my neighbors, not a few of whom,
have since informed me that they believed their
lives were saved by their use. Yours, kr.

njIIK high and envied celebrity which
this preeminent medicine lias ac
quired for its invariable eliicacy in ah

r odered the usual practice of ostentatious
