Although ttere have been many medici nal preparations brought before the public since the firkt.introduction of Perry Davis' Vegetable Pain Killer, and large amounts expended in their introduction, the Pain Killer has continued steadily to advance ill the estimation of the 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 efficaoy 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 es ect 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, has been truly wonderful, and has won for it a name among medicinal preparations that can nover be forgotten.* Its success in removing pains, as an external remedy, iu cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Slings of insects, and other causes of suffering, has secured for it such a host of testimony, as nn almost infallible remedy, that it will bo handed down to posterity as ono of tho greatest medical discoveries of tho nineteenth century. The magical ef fects of the Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. Y'ou have only to bo sure that, you buy the genuine article and adhere to the directions in its uso, and you will admit its wonderful medicinal properties. The gouuiue 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 ot Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note us hand. None others can bo relied upon ns genuino. Prices of bottles 12J cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, and sl, respectively. Valuable Medicine —Wo presume no medical preparation over offered to tho pub lic has been more thoroughly tested than PERRY DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER. Thou sands of persons, were they called upon to do so, would cheerfully testify that thoy have used It for various ills, with tho most satisfactory success. It is within onr own knowtodgo that an immenso amount of suf fering has been relieved by it. It* pro prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis k Son, save no pains or expense in order to satisfy the public. Being strictly honorable men, they observe tho utmost uniformity in the man ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer. The materials of whtch it is eoinpoeed are earefully selected—none but the best quality being used. By these means the high repu tation which the Pain Killer has long slnfie acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus tained. In view of these facts, we are by no means surprised to learn that Messrs. Davis k Son's soles are constantly and rapidly increasing. While we congratulate our friend* generally that so valuable a preparation as the Pain Killer is plaoad. within their reach, we must be permitted te rejoice at the well-merited success of its liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provi dence General Advertiser.
