caused by or attendant upon—
Sudden Colds, Coughs, lever aud Ague,
Headache, Bilious Fever, Pains in the Side.
Back and Loins, as well as in the Joints and j

Pkrry Davis’ Pain Killer.— fyc have often
spoken of this great medicine in terms of very
high praise, and we have aa often felt that all wc
could say in its favor would not do it full justice.
It is one of those medicines of which we can
speak—and speak decisively—from experience ;
for we have repeatedly taken it, and invariably
with the best results and greatest satisfaction.
We always keep it on hand, ready for an emer
gency, and wo regard it not only as one of the
very best medicines in use for various ills, but
as one of tho cheapest, also. Its cost, by the
way—that is, the cost of the ingredients of which
it is composed—has been considerably increased,
but the price of the medicine has been but very
little advanced. It is not likely that the popu
larity of Davis’ Pain Killer will in any measure
decrease, or that the demand for it will in tho
slightest degree decline, until somo other specific
for allaying pain and curing various complaints
for which it is so generally used, shall bo dis
covered, of equal potency with it—of which
there seems to bo but little probability. Asa
remed}* for stomach complaints, such as dysen
tery, diarrhoea, etc., the Pain Killer is, without
doubt, unsurpassed, and every where most de
servedly in demand. One, two, or three doses,
of a tcaspoonful each, in a wine glass of milk
and water, with a little sugar, have repeatedly,
within our knowledge, cffoctually cured serious
trouble of this kind. Judgment should undoubt
edly be used in checking certain stage-s of diar
rbica too suddenly; but takcu at the proper
timo, the Pain Killer will act like a charm, and
frequently cure when nothing else will. —Pruvi

OF DEATHS, that annually
occur, are caused by Prevent
able Diseases, and the greater
portion of those complaints
would, if Radway’s Ready Re
lief or Pills, (as the case may
require,) were administered
when pain or uneasiness or
plight sickness is experienced,
be exterminated from the sys
tem in a few hours. PAIN, no
matter from what cause, is
almost instantly cured by the
Ready Relict. In eases of Cho
lera, Diarrhoea, Cramps, Spasms
Rilious Cholic, in fact all Pains,
Aches and Infirmities either in
the Stomach, Bowels, Bladder,
Kidneys, or the Joints, Muscles,
Legs, Arms, Rheumatism, Neu
ralgia, Fever and Ague, Head
ache, Toothache, &c., will in a
FEW MINUTES yield to the
soothing influence of the Ready
Relief.
Sudden Colds, Coughs, Influenza, Dip
theria, Hoarseness, Sore Throat, Chilis, Fever
and Ague, Mercurial Pains, Scarlet Fever,
&c., Ac., take from four to six of Radwaj’f
Pills, and also take a teaspoonful of the
Ready Relief in a glass of warm water, sweet
ened with sugar or honey; bathe tho throat,
head and chest with Ready Relief, (if Ague
or Intermittent Fever, bathe the spine also,)
in tho morning you will be cured.
How the Ready Relief Acts!
In a few minutes tho patient will foel s
’light tingling irritation, and the skin be
comes reddened; if there is much distress in
tho stomach, tho Relief will assist nature in
removing the offending cause, —a general
warmth is felt throughout the entire body,
and its diffusive stimulating properties
rapidly courses through every vein and tissue
of the system, arousing the slothful and
partially paralyzed glands and organs to re
newed and healthy action, perspiration fol
lows, and the surface of the body feels in
creased heat. The sickness at stomach, colds,
chills, head-ache, oppressed breathing, the
soreness of the throat, and al! pains, either
internally or externally, rapidly subside, and
the patient falls into a tranquil sleep, awakes
refreshed, invigorated, cured. © t
It will ho found that in using the Beliei
externally, either on the spino or across the
kidneys, or over tho stomach And bowels, that
for several days after a pleasing warmth will
be felt, showing tho length of time it con
tinues its influence over the diseased parts.

If seized with Fever, take 4 to 6 oi
ho Pills every six hours, until copious
lischarges from the bowels take place;
also drink the Belief diluted with
water, and bathe the entire surface oi
the body with Belief. Soon a power
ful perspiration will take place, and
you will feel a pleasant heat through
out the system. Keep on taking EeUei
repeatedly, every four hours, also the
