TO THE FACULTY AND HEADS OF
FAMILIES*
DR. MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF
TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and
does not belong to the family of quack medicines;
for the reason that the component parts are made
known to the faculty, or any one else that may
wish to know, bj any of the agents keeping them
for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx
iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme
North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to
be made from the stalk, a thing not more aosuru
than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to
say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato
so far North.
Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the
Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of
which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg
ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they
profess to be, and will do for otheis what they
have 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
know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable
as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much
of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used
as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the
system in much better condition than the other
kind ; many will recollect with what trembling
anxiety calomel has been given to children, and
how they then wished for a substitute. It has
long been known that the Tomato contained ca
thartic principles, but not until of late was it
ascertained that they contained alterative and diu
retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use
the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that
they know what it is Were it a patent mystery,
they 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
Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in
this city. We all know something about this.

Radical Cure of Heruia or Rupture, by Dr*
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
riIHE subscriber has opened an office, at the
X store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson & Co., forth!
treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these
ustly celebrated instruments. He has now used
them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid,
he could name saveral persons who have been radi
cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous
affection, 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
mittee ol the Philadelphia Medical Society on the
Radical Cure of Hernia.
“ The instruments iff Dr. Chase have effected
the permanent and accurate retention of the in
testines in every case of Hernia observed by the
committee, without material inconvenience to the
: patient, and often under trials more severe than
are usually ventured upon by those who wearother
trusses; trials taat would be imprudent with any
other apparatus inown to the committee,”
“ The committee are induced by the foregoing
conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in
struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of
the profession, as the best known means of me
chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the
highest chances of radical cure.”
the following is fromThFSomFWMedical and

“ All m ust admit of the radical cure of hernia
and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best
yet invented to effect the object” J

«R. E. SPOHN, a German physician of much
note, having devoted his attention for some
years to the cure and removal ofthecsusesofNEß-
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 they are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which they might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the use jf his remedy.
It is the result of scientific research, and is entirely
of a different chat acter from advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s
remedy for this distressing cornpaint is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so much 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 remedy has been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an a milled 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, the stomach, is the first cause, that th* sys
tem has become vitiated or debiluaied, thiough ihe
stomach, and that only through the same channelr
must they expects restoration of the natural and
healthy functions of the system. 'Phis object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and lhe 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 Stales.

GJ /"k CHALLENGE. The genuine
French Pil's against all the QUACK
NOSTRMUS of the age—lor the cure of
******
The French Pills are applicable in all cases, foi
either sex, (warranted free from Mercury,; and pos
sesses great advantages over the Balsams and all
liquid medicines, by being entirely free from smell,
and consequently do not effect the breath, thereby
preventing the possibility of discovery while using
them.
Besides this important advantage, they never
disagree with the stomach, and in the first stages of
the disease they usually effect a cure in a few days,
wit h little regard to oiet or exposure.
In the must obstinate stages of the disease, they
are equally certain, having cured many after every
other remedy had failed. In short they have been
so universally successful that the proprietor chal
lenges any one to produce a remedy of equal cer
tainty, under a forfeiture of Three Hundred Dollars.
Harrisburg, Dec. 10, 1838. i
Dr. Valier—Dear Sir; About a month ago, I sent
to you for three boxes of your French Pills, and feel
much obliged to you for furnishing me with a medi «
cine so effectual and so pleasant to use. When 1
sent for your Pills I had been troubled with the
disease for nearly 6 months, and had tried a great
many medicines without any effect. During the ’
first six weeks 1 was under a Physician of this
place, but finding little or no chance of being cured
by him, 1 left him, and a few days after visited
Philadelphia, where 1 bought a * anely of advertised
specifics (almost enough to stock an apolhecary shop,
and all of this I took with the same success as bi
fore, leaving that c* ** *d smell of the balsam be
hind them, which I think lean smell to this day
Not knowing what to resort to next, and seeing you
French Pil's advertised in the Public Ledger,
determined to try them, and am only sorry I did n<
> get them sooner, as it might saved me fort
’ dollars and have cured me long ago. My object i

medicine for two of my friends, who are in th

The following was forwardeu to Dr. Peters, by a
highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No
Ca., March 3d, 1838: '
Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, —By requestof your agent,
Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the
almost miraculous effects of your piPs; and I would
add, that you may make use ol them, in connection
with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I
speak of their merits from experience, as 1 and my
family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three
years ; and so great are the benefits we have receiv
ed from them in general, that I would ratner pur
chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house
without them. I will not enumerate the afflictions
thev have relieved us of; but 1 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 Jong 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
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 re
lieved her, and in less than three months sh 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, I never heard an individual complain
of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Bat
eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen
timents of regard, your ob’t servant.
A. G. BANKS.
To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward* of fifteen
months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever
and Ague; and during the time could find nothing—
though I had applied to every thing that gave me
any thing like permanent relief. At length, how
ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one
of our best physicians, and I am most grateful and
happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used
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—
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 medicine- Respectfully yours,
THEODORE JAMES.

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, I 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
my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This
case, in connection with my name is at your ser
vice—and I have the pleasure to be able to inform
you that your inestimable medicine is in such great
favor with the faculty here, that I believe there is
not one of them who does not use it in his private
practice. Yours most resp’y.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo
gart, of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’
pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi
cine, those effects being produced by the differences
of the quantity taken, and are decidedly superior
to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.

rpHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo
i sition,especially in.the Northern States, leaves
the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its
favor: for it has been generally conceded to it,that
it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex
ternal complaints that has ever been discovered.
Indeed lhe*spced and certainty of its operations,
have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds,
corns,fever sores,chilblains, while swellings, biles,
piles,spider and snakebites,&c. &e., immediately
yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, it prop
erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or
break and heal a bile in live days, will allay and
perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most
desperate cases of 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 wonderful that they will
1 at 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
chaled back and limbs of horses —for tetters, 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 Oimm nt,” upwards of a hundred of
which were written by respectable members of the
Medical Faculty.

; in my rather extensive practice forseveral years, and

Sir, —1 have no hesitation in stating, m reply to
5 your note, that your “ Specific Ointment” is truly
r equal to the majority of the ends for which you re
commend it. 1 qualify my certificate by the word
, majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in

t In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, w hit

beyond the reach of human remedy, as for upwards
of a thousand ytnrs. they had balHpd the \vis ( i 0 , r)
and ingenuity of the most profound physician* j,

the great advantage of the human race,soon proved t
itself to be the desideratum so long sought for; arr »
accordingly, notwithstanding tl e brief peri .d 0 f iJg
existence.it has required a celebrity so great, u, a ,
it Is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilize
globe. Dr Magnin soon finding that the dernatu}
was so vast as to render a supply impossible, d is
posed of the recipe and right ol sale, under ob!te a
lions of secrecy, iwr England, the United S’ateg
and other countries, only preserving I ranee and
Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber p os
sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and n« w
hastens togivethe inhabitants of Ins line cl agency
the benefits of his speculation.
“Le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “,j, e »
Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigoMtor of f
human frame! In all the various cases of lang U(jr I
lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme. I
dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful, f
ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigo; <
to the body But the peculiar virtue on which i;j I
celebrity is based, is the laciltty and eertayjty
which it restores the virile powers when they have
been destroved by disease.time,recklessness,orativ
of the numerous causes which terminate in the
prostration of those functions.
In common with the generality of really good
medicines, this C ordial contains nothing us a ir.er
cnrial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre
dients which compose it; but is, at the same time-,
so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can re no
vate the prostrated energies of a giant, arp infant
may use it,not only with impunity, but vfith ac
vantage. ,
The usages of society are unfortunately sucli
that, notwithstanding the benefits which would he
sure to result from it, weeannotenter into an analy.
sis of this ine-timable Cordial here, or publish many
of the documents which have been received, as
vouchers of the blessings it has conferredon nura.
hers of despairing individuals. But this wc cattioi
forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated
that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at all,
as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecMity w
the procreant functions,in eithersex; and therefore,
that these evils arc the effects of artificial causes, |
and may be speedi-y subdued and removed by the »
use ol 44 Le Cordial *!e Lucine.”
The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure
for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus. obstructed,difE

of It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled

its surprising virtue. I had a patient reoei4*|
t M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had W
several years abandoned himself in the vorteta
dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it»
length by the utter prostration of all his vinlee'if’
gies. He w T as,indeed,reduced to the last exireroi
of debility and t.tstelessness, for, if an occasion
flash of excitement warmed his system, the re*
lion was almost immediate,and the result perk
prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrut
in such cases; but, as I had anticipated,
success ; ami when 1 saw the 44 Lucina Cefrdt*
advertised, 1 must confess that even the
of your name did not give me much hope iu tO
least so far as regarded the case in hand. Ife |l
bound to try it,howev-r, and was soon satisfied
its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, *
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity'
his system ; and he is now, having used four belli*
as well is ever.
