TO THE FACULTY AND HEADS OF
FAMILIES.
BR. MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF
TOMATO—a substitute for Calomel, and
dues not belong to the family of quack medicines;
fi r the reason that the component parts are made
kiown to the faculty, or any one else that may
wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them
for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx
iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme
Ninth has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting tc
' or made from the stalk, a thing not more aosuiu
1 than for one to offer meal from the com stalk, to
say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato
; so far North.
Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the
1 amato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of
which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg
i ed tc prove by their use, that they are all that they
| p ofess to be, and will do for otheis what they
hi ve done for such as mav have used them ; as
this is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will
doubtless be valuable information to families to
I k iow that the Y'ellow are just doubly as valuable
a the Red lomato, and produces twice as much
0; the hapatine, or active principle, and when used
an a daily vegetable will be found to keep the
system in much better condition than the other
kind; many will recollect with what trembling
a ixiety calomel has been given to children, and
haw they then wished for a substitute. It has
ling been known that the Tomato contained ca
fiartic principles, bu» not until of late w-as it
a.ceitained that they contained alterative and diu
retic properties. 'I he Faculty embrace and use
t >e piepaiation most cheerfully, for the reason that
loey know what it is Were it a patent mystery
tuey would be bound to reject the medicine, as they
justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the
day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a
mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use’ the Tomato
Fill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in

Radical Cure of Hernra or Rupture, by
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
r subscriber has opened an office, at the Dru<*
1. store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson & Co., for the
treatment ol Hernia or Rupture, by means of these
iiistly celebrated instruments. He has nuw used
taem for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid
he could name several persons who have been radi
cilly cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous
a lection, by the use of these Trusses, besides many
others who are in a fairway of being entirely re
lieved. The following is the language of the com
n ittee ot the Philadelphia Medical Society on the
FladicalCure of Hernia. J
“ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected
the permanent and accurate of the in
ti stines m every case of Herttia observed by the
committee, without material inconvenience to the
p itient, and often under trials more severe than
a e usually ventured upon by those who wearcther
trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any
31 u < 'J < a PP aia tus known to the committee.”
“ com mittee are induced by the foregoing
ci inclusions to recommend, in strong terms the in
struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of

chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the
highest chances of radical cure.” ®

DR. E. SPOHN, a German physician of much
note, having devoted his attention for some
years to the cure and removal of the c£ uses of NER
VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis
faction to make known, that he has a remedy which
by removing the causes cures effectually and perma
nently this distressing complaint. There are many
families who have considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as
sures them that ihey are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which they might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the use ff his remedy.
It is the result of scientific research, and is entirely
of a different character Irora advertise*! patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR^EHVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s
remedy lor this distressing compaint is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so m ich suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or
cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S.
now assures the public that such a r; medy has been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an admitted fact that this complaint, whether called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the stomach—those who think they have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this
organ, tfre stomach, isihe first cause, that th a sys
tem has become vitiated or debilnaied, tlnough ihe
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of ihe natural and
heulihy functions of the system. 'Phis object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and the sooner sufferers with the headache become
convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his
professional reputation on this fact. The remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United States.

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a
highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No
Ca.,March 3d, 1838: ©
Dr Peters —Dear Sir, —By request of your agent,
Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the
almost miraculous effects of your pil's; and I would
add, that you may make use ol them, in connection
with my name, in any manner you deem piopei, I
speak of their merits from experience, as 1 and my
family have taken upwards ol thirty boxes in tinee
years; and so great ape the benefits we have receiv
ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur
chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house
without them. 1 will not enumerate the afflictions
they have relieved us of; but I can assure you they
were many, and of very opposite natures, which
has fully proved to me that your medicine is a sim
ple purifier of the system, and therefore equally
the enemy of every disease. I will mention one
case. I have a sister who had been for a long pe
riod severely 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 procure; but all their efforts to
restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer
ings were fruitless ; and accordingly, we all consid
ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good
fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex
pect.ng 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 re
lieved her, and in less than three months she was
perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all
who were witness of it, (but more especially the
suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to
miraculous; and yet I could mention many more
of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills
were equally successful in rescuing the patients
from the jaws of death. Need I add that the popu
larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in
this section of the country ? But this I presume
you know from the immense quantity you dispose
of I may mention, however, that notwithstanding
its general use,l never heard an individual complain
of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Ral
eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen
timents of regard, your ob’t servant.

though I had applied to every thing that gave me
any thing like permanent relief. At length, how
a ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one
of our best physicians,and 1 am most grateful and j
happy in being able to add, that I had scarcely used j
two boxes when 1 found that they had restored me ;
to perfect health. Since then, various members of
my family have used them with equal success — j
and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you'
of the fact, and to request - of you to publish this
certificate, as I am anxious to add my public testi
mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un
rivalled xn»dfcjpe. Respectfully yours,

Communication received from the eminent Dr. J.
H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia:
Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of
the 11th inst., I was called in great haste to the
house of a fellow ciiizen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found
his son laboring under a most alarming attack of
Cynanche Tracnealis (Cronp) and apparently be
yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for
tune, however, 1 had in my pocket a broken box of
your pills—four of which I administered, with
such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes I
my patient was St ease, and out of danger. This
case, in connection with my name is at your ser
vice—and 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform
you that your inestimable medicine is in such great
favor with the faculty here, that 1 believe there is
not one of them who does not use it in his private
practice. Yours most resp’y.

favor: for it has been generally conceded to it, that
it is beyond all comparison remedy lor cx
ternal complaints that has ever been discovered.
Indeed the’speed and certainty of its operations,
have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wouuds,
corns, fever sores,chilblains, while swellings, biles,
piles, spider and snake bites, &c. <fec., immediately
yield to its superhuman influence. Thus.il prop
erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or
break and heal a bile in live uays, will allay and
perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most
desperate cases ot white swelling that can be ima
gined, have been destroyed by it in less than two
months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi
cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its
powers of attraction are so that they w ill
.it once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from
pervading the system. It is likewise greatly supe
rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the
dialed back and limbs of horses —lor tellers, ring
worms, chapped lips —and in short, for every exter
nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or
beast.
The proprietor has received at least a thousand
certificates, and other documents, in favor of his
“ Specific Ointm -nt,” upwards of a hundred of
which were written by respectable members of the
Medical Faculty.

Sir—l useyour Specific Ointment in my practice,
and cordially recommend it as a most efficient reme
dy for Tumors, Ulcers, While Swellings, Scrofula,
Rheumatic Pains, Chapped Face, Lips and Hands:
and for general external complaints. I write this
at the request of your agent here, who furnishes me
with the article, and am pleased to have it in my

Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was
sadly afflicted witn thecomp aim that physicians
termed a scald head ; and 1 feared, independent of
every other evil, that she would be bald in conse
quence. By the recommendation, however, of the
Reverend Mr. Perrin, I applied your ointment to the
afflicted part; and I thank God that my child is
now’entirely recovered from the disease, and is
getting her hair as fast as can be expected. The
cure was effecied in lather less than two months;
during which lime I us*d fiv dollars worth of oint
ment; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars
dming the previous three years, without any benefit
whatever.

I hereby substantiate the truth of ’Clig 1 above

expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much
in want of it.—You know my estimation of your

Dr. Harrison
Sir —The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have
been long known to me,as 1 have used none other
in my rather extensive practice for several years, and
if you think it would be to your advantage, I can
furnish you with twenty certificates of important
cures which it has effected under my own imme
diate inspection ; the last being one of a severe 1
and apparently perpetual ulcer, in the back of a
poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di
vision street, which it completely healed in twenty
onedays. My present chief object in writing to
you, is to learn who is your authorised agent in this
city, for,hnng in want of a supply of your oint
ment, and ilie person Mr. Boyle, from whom I used
to purchase it, having tailed and gone out of busi
ness, 1 am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that I
may be imposed on by a counterfeit.

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels
October 3, 183*
To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am ro
gratified at the unprecedented popularitv of y#
“Lucina Cordial,” and am able to hear testimony
its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recess
! M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had
several years abandoned himself in the vortei
dissipation; and was only reclaimed from it
length by the utter prostration of all his virilee»xt
gies. He was,indeed, reduced to the last extrera
of debility and t.iste.'essness. f or, if an occasion!
flash of excitement warmed his system, the re*
lion was almost inimtdiale, and the result pert*
prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrum
in such cares ; but, as 1 had anticipated, withot
success; and when 1 saw the “ Lucjfia Coidia.
advertised, 1 musi confess that even the great weigi
of your name did not give me much hope in it, 1
least so far as regarded the case in hand. 1 ft
bound to try it,however, and was soon satisfied
jig efficacy; for before p. bottle was expended, n
pi tient gave evidence o' the returning elasticity
ius system and he is now, having used tour bultlt
