Perry Davis’ Pain Killer. —We have often
spoken of this groat medicine in terms of very
high praise, and we have as 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 hate repeatedly taken it, and invariably
with the best results and greatest satisfaction.
We always keep it on hand, read}' for an emer
gency, an( l we regard it not only as one of the
very best medicines in use for various ills, but
as one of the cheapest, also. Its cost, by the
way—that is, the cost ot the ingredients of which
it is composed—has been considerably increased,
but the price of the medicine has been hut 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 the
slightest degree decline, until some other specific
for allaying pain and curing various complaints
for wbicli it is so generally used, shall be dis
covered, of equal potency with it—of which
there seems to be but little probability. Asa
remedy 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 teaspoonful each, in a wine glass of milk
and water, with a little sugar, have repeatedly,
within our knowledge, effectually cured serious
trouble of this kind. Judgment should undoubt
edly be used in checking certain stages of diar
rhoea too suddenly; but taken at the proper
time, Hie Pain Killer will act like a charm, and
frequrotly cure when nothing else will.—Provi

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
slight 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 Relief. In cases of Cho

ened with sugar or honey; bathe the throat,
head and chest with Ready Relief, (if Ague
or Intermittent Fever, bathe the spine also,)
in the morning you will be cured.
How the Ready Relief Acts!
In a. few minutes the patient will feel •
slight tingling irritation, and the skin be
comes reddened; if there is much distress in
the stomach, the Relief will assist nature in
removing the offending cause, —a general
warmth ia 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 tho surfaco of the body feels in
creased heat. The sickness at stomach, colds,
chills, head-ache, oppressed breathing, tho
soreness of the throat, and all pains, either
internally or externally, rapidly subside, and
the patient falls into a tranquil sleep, awakes
refreshed, invigorated, cured.® >
It will bo found that in using the Relief
externally, either on the spine or across the
kidneys, or over tho stomach and bowels, that
for several days after a pleasing warmth will
tie felt, showing the length of time it con
tinues its influence over the diseased parts.

TYPHOSD FEVER.
This disease is not only cured bj
Dr. lladvay’a Eelief and Pills, but pre
vented. If exposed to it, put one tea
spoonful of Eelief in a tumbler ol
water. Drink this before going out in
the morning, and several times during
the day. Take one of Eadway’s Pills
one hour before dinner, and one on
going to bed.
If seized with Pever, take 4 to 6 Ol
the Pills every six hours, until copious
discharges from the bowels take place;
also drink the Eelief diluted with
water, and bathe the entire surface ol
the body with Eelief. Soon a power
ful perspiration will take place, and
you will feel a pleasant heat through
out the system. Keep on taking Eeliel
repeatedly, every four hours, also the
Pills. A cure will he sure to follow.
The rolief is strengthening, stimulating,
soothing, and quieting; it is sure tc
break up the Pever and to neutralize
the poison. Let this treatment be fol
lowed, and thousands will be saved.
The same treatment in Fever and Ague,
Yellow Fever, Ship Fever, Bilious
Fever,' will effect a cure in 24 hours
When the patient feels the Eelief irrita
ting or heating the skin, a cure is posi
tive. In all cases where pain is felt
tho Eelief should he used.
Relief 50 cts.; Pills 25 cts. Soli
