Choii ra, Dysentery and Di arrhoea THE great success that has attended 1 the treat mini of all bowel diseases wyth ‘‘jaeoh’s Cor dial,” for Hie lust twelve months, bus induced in proprietors to go largely into the inuoulueiure j i. No expense or pains have been spared in ge mg it up, and a< regards its external appearance? we can say witliout contradict inn, lliut it very far surpasses every oilier preparation now ouliiillic Umli (1 Slates. The bottlis were made expressly* for the purpose, having the follow ing words blown in the glass:—“ Jacob's Cholera & Dysentery Cor dial.”—- the bottle together w ith u finely printed pamphlet,, is inclosed in a fine steel engraved wrapper with four vignettes; and Ims also upon the lop ol the bottle over the outside wrapper, a finely engraved sac simile and stgnulure of ‘‘VV. W. BLISS & CO.” These together with two kinds ol large fine steel engraven “placards” pl?cen it, so hr as regards external appearances, far ahead of uny'fhing ol tile kind in the United Elates. As lo Us merits as a remedy in Dysenlcty, Diar-t rhaa, and Cholera Morbus, we believe it veiy Ibf ► surpasses every other p eparaltor* ol the kind now efnre the public. It is a reliable preparation, safe, speedy, and ef soual; and the iiial even of one dose, by the af fected, will lully prove (he f rut Ii of our assertion! flint a preparation never was given to the public, i tint w ill so effectually, nnd in so short a time relieve, .hathe formula lor the prcpa:ation was firsl used Te of tiic proprietors in Ins private’ practice, by onefght or ten years ago, and has been in hta hands!'.irom that time up to the promt, an alums, never siting remedy in bowel affections. Pin e, cians of intelligence have tested it in the pructicso and people of entire ncighborhoode have alto used it, and one and all, so far as the proprieairs have any ltnowli dge, are cnlhudastis m its prase. We Ii vc already staled in our pamphlet, that we believedil will effect a cure 99 cases out of every hundred, when the directions arc closely (oliowed, and that eighty out ol the hundred eases,will have b,come reli. ve J and cured, by the time the 2d or 3d dose has been taken. VVe ground our belief on* w hut it has done during the lust twelve months; 10. nearly every case, so tar as we have hdard, lias npt only.been cured, bul cured from taking one or two or three dose’s ot this rnetiieine. VVe do not regard it by any means a specific: nor do we fie Iteve, or pretend to say, lliat it will cure every casa; but we do mean to he understeioel, that if it is la ken according to the directions us set forth in llie pamphlet, that a great majority of Ibe cases wi* 1 not only be relieved but entirely cured. VVe hai ‘ no tears in regard to its success, except insom .’ l few cases of children. There are many eases > ? bowel Complaints, produced and kept up by 1! • ‘ presence ol worms in the intestinal canal, arid s long as these remain, lbr, of ho other Dysenfi r and Diarrheea preparation w ill do any perman* good. There are also oftentimes chronic diseba ges from the bowels, produced nnd kept up in fe males of a weak and debilitated constitution, pu. duccd by ‘‘prolapsus uteri”—so longas this aoui> of irritation remains, no permanenl benefit can I . expected from any remedy, until the cause of if. -i irritation is removed. VVe cannot herald it forth in the lace and eyes ol the whole world; tbal-we can produce “Hiousaiu ol certificates” in relation t>> I he wonderful cures i lias effected, for w*c have not got them; but we lia> got a great plenty, enough we think to satisfy li.*. most fastidious; and they are not certificates mui ufacturcd for the occasion, got up to dupe the m. wary, but are certificates of men of worth nn standing in our midst, and known to nearly ever y person in tins and surrounding counties. VV could have inserted many other recommendation.- in our pamphlet, of equal value to those already pidilished, had we ad’ space to have don •s< —but to make a long story a short one, we sa In the public, try a bottle, and our word for it, you \ til not be disappointed in its effects. PHYSICIANS To you w*c retpcctfully offer this preparation, ir particularly for its efficacy alone, but for the con vcmcnce of having a reliable preparation alrcad prepared in cases of emergency. W’c sell it t you who wish it for private practice, at a discouit from the usual price. TO PLANTERS This preparation was especially designed for you and your females—more particularly those who live at a distance from a good physician. To all such we would most respectfully advise, to pur-- chase and have it always on hand, especially if you are living in a district of country where Dy sentery and Diarrhoea prevail—by so doing, you may, by its timely administration, save the file ot some of your family, or the life of a valuable nc- TO FEMALES This preparation is peculiarly adapted and admira bly suited, to the many peculiar maladies to whiib you are subject —loss ot nervous power, bodily ex haustion, depressed and gloomy state of mind, tin which, il not remedied very soon, impairs the en ergy of mind and- disturbs the equanimity of tern per. In this you will find a tranquihser and a ton ic, whose invigorating effects will be seen and feb. even alter a lew discs. It contracts nervousness “ prostration tofsystem, irregularities, despondeno , heartburn, vomiting, pain in the back and loin-, false pains and pains ol the menstrual period.— You will find it salt at all times, nnd speedy in its o| eration, This medicine is indeed admirabh suited to those hysterical feelings and that nei vousness, which are so often an actempaniment to the menstrual period, and a great many cast - could be cited where it is now being used for tin* alone, in this county, and neighboring ones. TRAVELLERS , Whose business calls them through parts of our country, where Cholera, Diarrhoea, and Dysenlcr-. prevail, stiotild not tie without tins remedy in then trunks —that they may, upon the slightest evidenc. ol disease, have recourse immediately to a piope. remedy. FOR CHILDREN. This medicine ts admirably adap.'ed. Bowe Complaints of children, while teetf.ing cannot only be readily cured, but prevented, by a timely use of this Cordial, thereby preventing them from becoming weak and puny, and consequently fret ful and ill-humored. iVluch suffering on the part of the child, and anxiety of the parents, could by timely precaution and suitable remedies be pre vented. For recommendations arid “ex'rncts from letters we refer the public to our pamphlet.
