The inventor of M’Lane’s Vermifuge having disposed of his right to this great remedy, the proprietors, Messrs. Kidd & Cos beg leave to offer it to the American public as the best remedy for Worms ever offered. It has been tried in all parts of the country, and in cases which had defied the exertions of the be3t physicians, and never without the most complete success. We caution parents against de lay. If your children exhibit symptoms of being troubled with worms, lose not a moment, but at once purchase a bottle of M’Lane's Vermifuge, and thus save them pain and perhaps their lives.t For sale by all the Druggists in Columbus, and by agents throughout the South. . jan4 An Ounce of fxct is worth a pound of theory: and the swarm of conclusive facts that cluster around that incom parable preparation, tioofiand’s German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jaakson, Philadelphia, establishing its value a 5 a tonic and restorative, are such as would prevent in credulity itself from questioning its efficacy. In all casra of disease ol the stomach, whether acute or chronic, it may be recommended for its soothing, cordial, and renovating influence. Dyspepsia, heartburn, loss of appetite, nausea, nervous tremors, relaxation and debility, &c., are relieved hy the Bitters in a very short space of time; and a pe.se verance in their use never fails to work a thorough cure.
