Important to Merchants,
■VTTEhave been informed that the usual practice ofMer-
V V chants, Farmers and Planters, in ordering their sup
plies of our I)r. McLANE’S C'elebrated VERMIFUGE,
has been simply to write or order Vermifuge. The conse
quence is, that instead of the genuine Dr. McLANE’S Ver
mifuge, they very frequently get one or the other of the
many worthless preparations called Vermifuge, now be
fore the public. We therefore beg leave to urge upon the
Blanter the propriety aud importance of invariably wri
ng the name in full, and to advise their factors or agents
that thev will not rcdeive any other than the genuine Dr.
McLaneis Celebrated Vermifuge, prepared by Fleming
Brothers, Pittsburgh, Pa.
We would also advise the same precaution in ordering
DH. McLANE’S
Celebrated laiver Pills.
> FOR THE CURE OF
HEPTATIS OR LIVER COMPLAINT,
In offering to the public DU. McLANE’S CELEBRATED
LIVER PILL, as a remedy for Liver and Billions Com
plaintSy we presume no apology will be needed. The great
prevalence of Liver Complaint and Billions diseases of all
Kinds, throughout the United States, and peculiarly in
the West and South, where, in the majority of cases, the
patient is not within the reach of a regular physician, rc
quires’that some remedy should .be provided, that would
notin the least impair the constitution,, and yet he safe and
effectual. That such is the true character of McLanh’s
Liver Pills, there can be no doubt. The testimony we
lay before you, nnd the great success that has invariably
attended their use, will, we think, be sufficient to convince
the most incredulous. It has been our sincere wish that
these Pills should be fairly and fully tested, and stand or
fall by the effects produced. That they have been so test
ed, and that the result lias been in every respect favora
ble, we call thousands to witness who have experienced
their beneficial effects.
Dr. McLank’s Liver Pills are not held forth or recom
mended (like most of the popular medicines of the day,)
as universal cure-alls, but simply for Liver Complaints,
and those symptoms connected with a deranged state of
that organ.
DISEASES OF THE LIVER.
The Liver is much more frequently the seat of disease
than is generally supposed. The function it is designed
to perform, and on the regular execution of which de
pends not only the general health of the body, but the
powers of the stomach, bowels, brains, and the whole ner
vous system, shows its vast and vital importance to human
health. When the Liver is seriously diseased, it in fact
not only deranges the vital function# of the body , but exer
cises a powerful influence over the mind and its operations
which cannot be easily described. It has so close a con
nection with other diseases, and nianitests itself by so
great a variety of symptoms, of a most doubtful charac
ter, that it misleads more physicians, even of great emi
nence than any other vital organ. The intimate connec
tion which exists between the liver and the brain, and the
great dominion which I am pursuaded it exercises over
the passions of mankind, convinces me that many unfor
tunate beings have committed acts of deep and criminal
atrocity, orlbecome what fools term hvpocondriacs, from
the single fact of a diseased state of the Liver. I have
long been convinced that more than one-half of the com
plaints which occur in this country, are to be considered

Planters and Farmers'!
Dr. McLANE’S Celebrated LIVER PILLS. The gr-nt
popularity of these Pills, as a specific or cure for Liver
Complaint, and all the billiolts derangements so prevalent
in the South ajid South West, has induced the vendors o
many worthless nostrums, to claim for their preparations
similar medicinal virtues. Be not deceived! Dr. Mc-
LANE’S Celebrated LIVER PILLS are the original and
onlv reliable remedy for Liver Complaints that has yet
boen discovered, and we urge the planter and merchant,
as he values his own, and the health of those depending
on him, to be careful in ordering. Take neither Vermi
fuge nor Liver Pills, unless you are sure you are getting
the genuine Dr. McLANE’S, prepared by
FLEMING BROTHERS, Pittsburgh, Pa.
DYSPEPSIA AND SLR HEADACHc.
as having their seat in a diseased state of the liver. I will
enumerate some of them. Indigestion, Stoppage of the
Menses, Deranged state of the Bowels, Irritable and Vin
dictive Feelings and Passions, from trifling and inade
quate causes of which we afterwards feel ashamed ; last,
though not least, more than three-fourths of the diseases
enumerated unffer the head of Consumption, have their seat
in a diseased liver. This is truly a frightful catalogue.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver. —Pain in the right side,
under the edge of the ribs, increasing on pressure; some
times the pain is in the left side; the patient is rarely able
to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulder-blade, and it frequently extends to the top
of the shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken for Rheuma
tism in the arm. The stomach is affected with loss of ap
petite and sickness; the bowels in general are costive,
sometimes alternating with lax ; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied wßh a dull, heavy sensation in the back
part. There is generally a considerable loss of memory,
accompanied with a painful sensation of having left un
done something which ought to have been done.. A slight
dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient com
plains oi weariness and debility; be is easily startled; his
feet are cold or burning, and he complains of a prickly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are low, and although
he is satisfied that exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In
fact, he distrusts eveiy remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease; but cases have occurred
when few of them existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the Liver to have been extensively
deranged.
Ague and Fever.—Dr. McLane’s Liver Pills in cases
of Ague and Fever, when taken with Quinine, are pro
ductive of the most happy results. No better cathartic
can be used preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We
would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give
them a fair trial.
Directions. —Take two or three pills going to bed,ev
ery second or third night. If they do not purge two or
three times by next morning, take one or two more; but a
slight breakfast should invariably follow their use. The
Liver Pills may be used where purging simply is necessary
As an anti billions purgative, they are inferior to none,and
in doses of two or three, they give astonishing relief in
Sick Headache ; also, in slight derangements of the Sto
mach.
