PERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
M9n\l KILLER
STILL TRIUMPHANT !
AND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL
by innumerable living witnesses, has
proved itself to he
THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE.
Although there have been many medici
nal preparations brought before the public
since the first introduction of Perry Davis’
Vegetable Pain Killer, nnd large amounts
expended in their introduction, tho Pain
Killer has continued steadily to advance in
the estimation of tho world as tho best
family medicine ever introduced. As an
internal and 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 tbe
rank it now holds among the great number
of preparations of the present, time. The
eflect of the Fain Killer upon the patient,
when taken internally in cases of Colds,
Coughs, Bowel Complaints, Cholcm, Dys
entery, and other affections of the system,
has been truly wonderful, und has won for
it a name among medicinal preparHtions
that can never be forgotten. Its success in
removing pains, as an external remedy, in
cases 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 be banded 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 ouly 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 genuino Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is
now put up in panel bottles, with the words
Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer blown in tbe
glass ; and with two steel engraved labels
ou each bottle—one an excellent likeness of
Perry Davis, tho original inventor of the
medicine, tbe other a steel engraved note of
hand. None others can be relied upon as
genuine. Prices of bottles cents, 25
cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively.
Valuable Medicine —We presume no
medical proparatiou over offered to the pub
lic has been more thoroughly tasted than
PERRY DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER. Thou
sands of 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 nn immense amount of 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
public. Being strictly honorable men, they
observe tbe utmost uniformity in the man
ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer.
The materials of which it is composed are
carefully selected—none but tbe best quality
being used. Ky these means the high repu
tation which the Pain Killer has long since
acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus
tained. In view of these facts, we are by
no means surprised to learn that Messrs.
Davis A Son’s sales are constantly and
rapidly increasing. While we congratulate
our friends generally that 60 valuable &
preparation as tho Pain Killer is placed
withiu their reach, we must be permitted to
rejoice at tbe well-merited success of its
liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provi
