person, l feel perfectly Beeuro in ofi'eiing it to

Savannah, May 6th, 1847
Mr. W. G. Falligant—Sir : This is to certify
that I was severely attacked with Rheumutism
in my feot, 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 short time. 1
am now perfectly well and have not felt any pain
since, and would cheerfully recommend it to my
fellow citizens.

Hind been troubled with very severe 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 I o use
Fnlligant’s Rheumatic Linimont. mt I’ain Killer,
taoughtl woulddo so, and I found it to give
me almost immediate relief, and what is most
singular, my wifo having an enlargement and
stillness of the joints of her hands, by applying
the remedy to the affected parts, received great
relief lierseif.
I would recommend it to every person af
flicted, as being a sovereign cure and a very
heap one. Jno. Lucas

Mr.W. G. Falligant—Sir: I do hereby certify

Pain Killer, for Rheumatism in my hands and

of my hands for eighteen months And in the space
ofthree weeks I could use my hsuids as well as
I ever did.

X COFHEROUS. or MEDICATED COM
POUND—Infallible for renewing, invignrntjfig,
nnd beautifying the HAIR, removing Scuri,
Dandruff, and all ntt'oetions of the Snijf), and
curing eruptions on tho Skin, Diseaao^ of the
Glands, Muscles and Integuments, t>nd reliev
ing Stings, Cuts, Bruises, Sprains^ &c- &c.—
With this Preparation, “there is no such word
as foil.” The first journal in-America, medi
cal men of the highest eminence, prominent, citi
zens of all professions, and ladies who have used
it for years, in their dressing rooms and nur
series, admit with one accord, that, for impart
ing vigor, gloss, luxurinnoo nnd curl to tho hair
eradicating scurf nnd dandruff, healing wounds
curing contusions, sprains, stings, &c., and re
lieving diseases of tho skin, the glunds, and the
muscles, it has no equnl among the multitude
of compounds advertised in tho puhlio prints,
or used in private practice. In cheapness as
well ns efficacy, Barry’s Tricopherous is un
rivalled. Tho immense crash sates of tho arti
cle, have enabled the inventor to supply it at
retail, ot 25 cents perbottle r which is from fifty
to one hundred per cent loss,- than tho pipco of
any other preparation for tho hair now in use.-
The scientific treatise on tho hair and the skin,
(embracing valuablo directions for the cultuYe
and preservation ot Nature’s choicest orna
ment,) in which each bottle is enclosed, is
alone worth the money.
Tho affinity between the membranes which
constitue tho skin,-and the hair which draws its
sustenance from this triple envelope, is very
close All diseases of the hnir originate in tile
skin of the head. If the pores of the scalp
are clogged, or if the blood and other fluids do
not circulate ireoly through the small vessels
which feed tho roots with moisture, and im
part lift'to tho fibres, the result is scurf, dand-
luff, shedding of their hair, grayness, dryness,
nnd harshness of tho ligaments, nnd entire
baldness, us tho case may be. Stimulate tho
skin to healthful action with the Tricopherous,
and the torpid vessels, recovering their activity,
will annihilate the disease. In all uffoctions of
the skin, nnd of the substrata of muscles and
integuments, the process nnd the effect are tho
same. It is upon the skin, the muscular fibres,
nnd tho glands, that the Tricopherous has its
specific action, nnd in all affections ami injuries
of these organs, it is a sovereigp/emedy.

entitled the Youth’s Friend. It will ho what
its nalno indicates. We aro not proposing to
publish a journal of largo pretensions, eithe
as to the size of its pages, or the ability of its
contents. Having long boon engaged in teach
ing the young of tho gentle sex, we flnttor our
self that wo know something pf their moral
and intellectual frauts. OdY object is mainly
to aid the young mind in its scnrcli after in
tellectunl and moral nutriment, ns well in the
paths of sober wisdom, ns the more brilliant
paterres of sparkling literature. While aid
ing to find the gems of the latter, wo would
from the Book of Nature and Revelation,
draw lessons to chnrm and docorate it with
the inspiration which alone can give it immortal
bloom.
Tho Youth’s Friend will be mado up of lit
erary and scientific essays and items, moral
instructive, and pleasing tales, original and se
lected; beautiful poetry, &c., as well as,, edi
torials, usual in works of the character pro
posed. Wo have the promise of contribu
tions from several whose efforts cannot fail
please ; nnd so far as our ability and exertions
can make it useful and attractive, they will he
unremittingly exerted.
But we need not enlarge. It will he seen that
our pages aro intended principally for the young
still, wo trust that they will contain much worthy
of the consideration of those.more advanced in
life. While we frankly admit that we should be
gratified with a suitable reward fur 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 tlw 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 they may
be pleased with the “Youth's Friend."
It willbr issued monthly, in quarto form of eight
pages, at $1 per annum, in advance. As the 1st
number will bo forthcoming about the first of
February, we would be greatly obliged to nil
those who may wish to receive it, to send in their
names as early as possible. W. C. TYSON.
