Although there have Veto many med;ci nal preparations brought before the public since the tirst introduction of Perry Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts expended in their introduction, the Pain Killer has continued steadily to advance in the estimation of the world as the best family medicine ever introduced. As an internal aud external remedy, it is truly a source of Joy to the World! One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and upon its own merits, as the proprietors have not resorted to advertising to gain for it the rank it now* holds among the great number of preparations of the present time. The efiect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Coughs, Bowel Complaints, Choleia, Dys entery, and other affections of the system, lms been truly wonderful, aud has won for it a name among medicinal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pains, as an external remedy, in cates of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Stings of insects, and other causes of suffering, has secured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will bo handed down to posterity as one of the greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. The magical ef fects of the Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. You have only to be sure that you buy the genuine article aud adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medicinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis' Pain Killer is now put tip in panel bottles, with the words Ditvis* Vegetable Pain Killer blown In the glass; and with two steel engrnved labels on each bottle—one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note of hand. None others can be relied upon as genuine. Prices of bottles 12£ cents, 26 cents, 60 cents, and sl, respectively. Valuable Medicine —Wo presume no medical preparation evor offered to the pub lic has been more thorough!}' tested than PERRY DAVIS' PAIN KILLER. Thou sands o 1 persons, were they called upon to do so, would cheerfully testify that they have used it for various ills, with the most satisfactory success. It is within our own knowledge that an immense suf fering has been relieved by it. Its pro prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis A Son, save no pains or expense in order to satisfy the j üblie. Being strictly honorable men, they observe tho utmost uniformity in tbe man ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer. Tbe materials of which it is composed are carefully selected—none but the host quality being used. By these means the high repu tation which the Pain Killer has long since acquired is, at all tiroes, triumphantly sus tained. In view of these facts, we arc by no means surprised to learn that Messrs. Davis A Soli's sales are constantly and rapidly increasing. While we congratulate otir friends generally that po vatuablo a preparation as the Pain Killer is placed within their reach, wo must be permitted to rejoice at the woll-morited success of its liberal aud enterprising proprietor.—Provi dence General AdvtrlieAr.
