TERRY DAVIS’
VEGETABLE
KILLER
STILL TRIUMPHANT !
\ ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL
by innumerable living witnesses, has
proved itself to bo
THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE.
Although there have been many me<l:ci
nal preparations brought before tbe public
since the first 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 tbe world as the 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 itßown merits, as the proprietors have
not resorted to advertising to gaindbrit the
rank it now ho:ds amoug the great number
of preparations of the present time. The
eftect of the Pain Killer upon the patient,
when taken internally in cases of Colds,
Ccughs, Bowel Complaints; Cholein, Dys
entery, and other affections of the system,
has been truly wonderful, and has won for
it a name among medicinal preparations
that can never bo forgotten. Its success in
removing pains, as an external remedy, in
cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains,
Cute, Stings of insects, und other causes of
suffering, has secured for it such a host of
testimony, as an almost infallible remedy,
that it will be bauded down to posterity as
ono 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 and adhere to the directions
in its use, and you will admit its wonderful
medicinal properties.
The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is
now put up in panel bottles, with the words
Davis* Vegetable Pain Killer blown in the
glass ; and with two steel engraved 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 us
genuine. Prices of bottles 12$ cents, 25
cents, 50 cents, and §l, respectively.
Valuable Medicine —We presume no
medical preparation ever offered to the pub
lic. has been more thoroughly tested than
PERRY DAVIS' PAIN KILLER. Thou
sands ol persons, were they called upon to
do so, won Id cheerfully testify that they
have used it for various ills, with the most
satifcfaetory success. It is within bur own
knowlcdgo that an immense amount of suf
fering has been relieved by it. Ite pro
prietors, Messrs. Porry Davits <fc Son, save
no pain« or expense in order to satisfy tho
public. Being strictly honorable men, they
observe the utmost uniformity in the man
ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer.
Tho materials of which it is composed are
carefully selected—none but the.bestquality
being used. By these means the high repu
tation which the Pain Killer has long since
acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sun
tained. In view of these facts, we are by
no means surprised to learn that Messrs.
Davis & Son’s sales are constantly and
rapidly increasing. While we congratulate
our friends generally that so valuablo a
preparation as tbe Pain Killer is placed
within their reach, we must be permitted to
rejoice at the well-merited success of its
liberal and enterprising proprietor.—iProti
