F ALLIGANT’S RHEU
MATIC LINIMENT OR PAIN KIL
LER.—Having fornnumber of years made and
old my liniment, and used the same on my own
person, I feel perfectly secure in offering it to
the public as a safe and certain cure for Rheumat
ism, pains in the limbs, joints, and swelling and
enlargement of the bones.
Savannah, May 6th, 1847.
Mr. W. G. Fnlligant—Sir; This is to certify
that I was severely attacked with Rheumatism
in my feet, so as to prevent me from attending to
my business. Having been recommended to try
your Rheumatic Liniment, or Pain Killer, I did
so, and was freed from all pain in a Bhort time. 1
am now perfectly well and have not felt any pain
since, and would cheerfully recommend it to my
fellow citizens.
jg EZXA KENT.
Scriven County May 12, 1843.
I had been troubled with very severo pains in
my limbs, and particularly in my back, so much
so as not to be able to attend to my planting in
terest, and having been recommended to use
Falligant’s Rheumatic Linimenu^r Pain Killer,
thought I would do so, and I foundit wo give
me almost immediate relief, and what is most
singular, my wife having an enlargement and
stiffness of the joints of her hands, by applying
the remedy to the affected parts, received great
relief herself.
I would recommend it to every person af
flicted, as being a sovereign cure and a very
heap one. Jno-Lucas.
Liberty County. January 19,1849.
Mr. W. G. Falligont—Sir: I do hereby certify
that 1 have used your Rheumatic Lini- ment, or
Pain Killer, for Rheumatism in my hands and
arms, and am perfectly cured, not having the use
of my hands for eighteen months and in the space
of three’ weeks I could use my hands as well as
I ever did.

D entistry, -preservation
of the Teeth Far Better
than Extraction.—DR. S. PARSONS,
Surgeon Dentist, No. 100 Broughton-Street,
would respectfully inform the citizens of Sa
vannah, that ho is prepared, at tho above place,
to attend to nil calls in his profession, and that
he will remain permanently.
•From his experience, during thirty years of
extensive practice, he feels confident in offer-
.liig his service to an enlightened public; trust
ing that all who may be in need oi tho services
of his profession, will feel amply paid for what
ever of patronage they may bestow upon him.
Ho relies with confidence upon his skill in
filling and thus, preserving tho natural teeth,
and also upon j*s mode of inserting artificial
ubstitutes; fits operations in these branches
having, in numerous instances, been sub
mitted to the special inspection of enlightened
judges, and have as often received their ap
probation.
Ho will pay particular attention to the regu
lation of Children’s teeth. It is a matter of
deep regret that parents, in general, hold in so
light estimation the advantages which may be
derived, to their offspring, from the timely ad
vice of the judicious Dentist. An error com
mitted here, either by extracting the decideous
teeth too soon, or by permitting them to remain
too long in the mouth, may materially injure
the entire permanent set. It behooves every
parent, then, as he regards tho well being of his
child, carefully to watch the developement ol
these organs, and seasonably to avail himself of
the advantages which our art is ready to bestow.
Teeth will bo extracted with great caution;
guarding against fracture of the alveoli, or in
jury to the adjoining teeth.
All diseases of the teeth, and gums, and max
illary bones, will be treated with especial refer
ence to their speedy and perfect cure.
All his operations will be performed with the
greatest tenderness and care, giving the least
possible pain to the patient. He trusts that,
that carelessness whicn is so often exhibited in
some operators, and that harshness with which
they handle these tender organs, and which
gives so many timorous dread of the employ
ment of our art, will never be found to consti
tute an objection on the part of those who shall
favor, him with their patronage. Knowing, as
lie does, that the teeth'ttre among the most sen
sitive organs of our whole system, he is also
aware that whatever operations are necessary
for their preservation, should bo performed
with the greatest carefulness and skill, in order
that the desired end may be attained
Ho never will exact exorbitantly? tat his
charges in all cases will be reasonable, and in
proportion to the good accomplished.
He 1 would therefore invite all those whose
teeth are in anywisK affected with decay; and
those upon wnose teeth there fs collected, in
any degree, ah^rd scajy substance, of a yel
lowish, dark or greyish tint, called tavtar; and
especially those who haVe lost a part or all
their teeth, and would wish thejr place sup-
pliedwith a beautiful ‘ and perminent substi
tute, to call and test his operations.

A WOitO TO OUR FRIENDS
We cannot suffer the present opportunily
to pass by without saying something for the very
lfbernl patronage which you have extended to us.
Our success thus far, is without a parallel. For
all this, however, we are indebted to you, and for
which you have ourunfeigned thanks.
We have now hut one more request to make,
and it is this—send all of your friends and your
friends’ friends to see us—tell them that our stock
of
Fancy and Staple Dry Goods,
BONNETS, RIBBONS, &c.
is now completed. Tell them that we are offer
i'ng daily great bargains—such as n. e seldom met
wtth at this season of thayear. Tell them that
our3tock of Dry Goods is entirely new. That
our lights are superior to any establishment of
the kind in tho city; so that they need not fear to
buy, ns they can see exactly what tho goods are.
And, lastly, tell them that we are doing business
entirely on the Cash System—consequently we
are compelled to sell low.

THE YOUTH’S FRIEND.
S OME months since the undersigned pro
ppsed to publish a series of pamphlets en
titled Humble Efforts. From a variety of
causes, their publication was postponed, and
after a considerable delay, acting under the
advice of some of her friends, she has conclude
ed to change her original intention,, and issued
monthly journal, of moderate size, quarto form,
entitled the Youth’s Friend. It will be what
its name indicates. We are not proposing to
publish a journal of large pretensions, either
as to tho size of its pages, or tho ability of its
contents. Having long been engaged in teach
ing the young of the gentle sex, we flatter our
self that we know something of their moral
and intellectual wants. Our object is mainly
to aid the young mind in its search after in
tellectual and moral nutriment, as well in the
paths of sober wisdom, as the more brilliant
paterres of sparkling literature. While aid
ing to find the gems of the latter, we would
from the Book of Nature and Rovelation,
draw lessons to charm and decorate it with
the inspiration which alone can give it immortal
bloom.
The Youth’s Friehd will he made up of lit
erary and scientific essays and items, moral,
instrufctive, and pleosjng tales, original and se
lected; beautiful poetry, &c., as well as edi
torials, usual in works of the character pro
posed. We have the ' promise of contribu
tions from several whose efforts cannot fail to
please ; and so far as our ability and exertions
can make it useful and attractive, they will be
unremittingly exerted.
But we need not enlarge. It will be seen that
our pages aro intended principally for the young;
still, we trust that they will contain much worthy
of tho consideration of those more advanced in
life. While we frankly admit that We shouldhe
'gratified with a suitable reward for our labors,
we cannot and must not loose sight of the great
hope of doing good. With becoming modesty
and deference, we submit our frail Literary
Barque to the waves of public opinion, with an
expression of the hope that it may meet a favor
able reception.
We tender our grateful acknowledgments
to the many kind friends who became patrons of
our "Humble Efforts,” and trust that theymuv
be pleased with the “Youth’s Friend.”
