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 devee Advert-her, Sold by all Medicine Dealers. mb 11—2 m CERTAIN, / Speedy Cure / Cno3 NEURALGIA am. a... \ / NERVOUS \v -i—?• J DISEASES. * lll •llagicato | T IS AN UNFAILING REMEDY IN ALL JL oases of Neuralgia Facialis, often affectiug a perfect cure in less than twenty-four hours from the use of no more than two or three Pills.
