Doctor V. EVANS
SOOTHING SYRUP
For children Teething,
PREPARED BY HIMSELF.
To Mothers and Nurses.
THE passage of the Teetli through the
gums produces troublesome and dan
gerous symptoms. It is known by moth
ers that there is great irritation in the
mouth and gums during this process. The
gums swell, the secretion of saliva is in
creased, the child is seized with . frequent
and sudden fits of crying, natchings, start
ing in the sleep, and spasms of peculiar
parts, the child shrieks with extreme vio
lence, and thrusts its fingers into its mouth.
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 afflicted with these
distressing symptoms, would apply Dr.
William Evans's Celebrated Soothing
Syrup, which has preserved hundreds ol
infants when thought past recovery, from
being suddenly attacked with that fatal
malady, convulsions.
A real blessing to Mothers.
Dr. V. Evans celebrated Soothing Syrup
for children cutting their teeth.
This infallible remedy has preserved
hundreds of Children, when thought past
recovery, from convulsions. As soon as
the Syrup is rubbed on the gums, the t hild
w ill recover. This preparation is so in
nocent, so efficacious, and so pleasant, that
no child will refuse to let its gums be
rubbed with it. When infants are at the
age of four months, though there is no ap
pearance of teeth, one bottle of the
Syrup should be used on the gums, to
open the pores. Parents should never be
without the Syrup 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, &::.
fCf Proof positive of the efficacy oj Dr. E

To the Agent of Dr. Evans' Soothing
Syrup: Dear Sir The ureat benefit
afforded lo my suffering infant by your
Southing Syrup, in a case of protracted
and painful dentition, must convince every
feeling parent how essential an early ap
plication of such an invaluable mediciue
is to relieve iulant misery and torture( My
infant, while teething, eiperienced suc h
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-
i r o i i
lie 01 your oyrup; wuicn 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 c hild has completely recovered,
and no recurrence of that awful complaint
has since occurred; the teeth are emana
ting daily and the child enjoys perfect
health. I giveyou my cheerful permission
to make this acknowledgment public, and
will gladly give any information on this
circumstance. WM. JOHNSON.

will not enumerate the afflictions they have re
lieved us of; but I can assure you they wore 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 ease.
I have a sister who had been for a long period se
verely afflicted 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 procurp; but all their efforts to restore
her to health, or even to mitigate her sufferings,
were fruitless; and accord ingrly, we all considered
her immediate death as inevitable. By good for
tune, however, as she was in this 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 lhan three months she
was perfectly restored to health. This case! and
all who were w itness of it, (but more especially
the suffering party,) considered to be the next
thing to miraculous; 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
this I presume you know from the immense quan
tity yt.u dispose of. I may mention, however,
that notwithstanding its general uce, 1 never heard
an indivividual complain of its effects" My resi

To Dn. Peteus. Dear Sir : It will no doubt
be gratifying to you to hear of one among the
; many of the wonderful cures which have been
j effected by 3rour medicine in this placei For
j three years or upwards 1 had been awfully afflict
jedwitli the liver complaint, dyspepsia and en
largement of the spleen. My hcbdmuinal mus
cles were greatly contracted, and it was really
frightful to contemplate the size of my spleen.
Added to these, I had costiveness and piles for
my constant companions, and in short, the multi
tude of my afflictions had brought mv. lo the brink
of etrnityt During the en ire period of my suf
ferings 1 was attended by various pnysieians, but
their prescriptions at best, only afforded a tempo
rary relief, so that 1 was in a state almost amount
ing to despair, when it so happened (and I bless
God 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 1 bgan 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 of your medicine. You
may make whatever use you wish of this letter,

This is to certify that I am intimately acquaint

that the above document, through all its circum

so positive of this is, that 11 m. Holmes is one of

add that this is only one of a number of cases
equally desperate, which have come within my

npHK high and envied celebrity which
this preeminent medicine has ac
quired for its invariable efficacy in all
the diseases which it professes to cure, has
rendered the usual practice of ostentatious
puffing, not only unnecessary, but unwor
thy of them. They are known by their
fruits; their pood works testify for them,
and they thrive not by the faith of the cre
dulous. In all cases of Costiveness, Dis

ma, Piles, Settled Pains, Rheumatism,
whether chronic or inflammatory, Fevers
and Agues, obstinate Headaches, Impure
state of the Fluids, unhealthy appearance
of the skin, Nervous Debility, the sick
uess incident to females in delicate health,
every kind of weakness, of the digestive
organs, and in all general derangements ol
health, these medicines have invariably
proved a certain and speedy remedy.
They restore vigorous health to the niosi

not abuse the gift of Providence and as

ing the mercenary practice of recommend
ing them to be taken in inordinate quanti
ties From two lo five pills is an adequate
and proper dose of any good mediciue in
this form; and the excessive quantities
which the public are advised to take by
other practitioners, only engender the hu
mors and corruptions which they profess
to remove. Uemove them they may, but
they create them first, and the debilitated
patient is doomed to be a pill swallower to
the end of his days. Mr. Moffat wishes to
