The Liver Pills —The Liver Pills of Dr. McLane
were first used by him exclusively in his own practice. So
efficacious were they in all ca c es ol Liver Complaint, that
they became famous, and attracting the attentiou of the
medical faculty, passed into general use. They act with
great certainty and regularity ; the patient almost imme
diately feels the dispersion of his disease, and is gradually
restored to health. With some the effect is almost mirac
ulous, frequently experiencing immediate relief, after hav
ing tor months resorted to drugs and medicines of another
description, in vain. Diseases of the Liver are very com
mon in this country, and are often frightful in character.
Those who experience any of the premonitory symptoms
of this dangerous and complicated disease, should at once
procure a box of Dr. M’Lane’s Pills, aud perhaps, thereby,
be saved a world of misery.
Purchasers will be careful to ask for Dr. M’Lane’s Cel
ebrated Liver Pills, and take none else. There are oth
er Pills, purporting to be Liver Pills, now before the public.
Dr. M’Lane’s Liver Pills, also his Celebrated Vermifuge,
can now be had at all respectable Drug Stores in the Uni
ted States and Canada.
Cy-dold by all the Druggists'in Columbus, and by one

V¥” Ague and Fever of three years’standing cured
Mr. John Longden, now living at Beaver Dam, Hanover
county, near Richmond, had ague and fever for 3 years ;
most of the time he had chills twice a day, and rarely less
than once; he was parched with fever as soon as the chill
Jelt him; and after trying physicians, quinine, most of the
Tonics advertised, and everything recommended to him,
was about to give up in despair, when Carter’s Spanish
Mixture was spoken of. He got two bottles; but before he
had used more than a single one, ho was perfectly cured,
and has not had a chill or fever since.
Mr. Longden is only one out of thousands who have
been benefited by this great tonic, alterative and blood
purifier. For sale by

of a severe cough, and take great pleasure in recommend

“TIMELY HINTS TO ALL.”
FRIENDS —Reader, it you have a valued friend, in
whose welfare you feel an interest, that friend will
prize asa precious memorial your Ambrotype or Daguer
reotype picture—if taken in Woodbridge’s peculiar style.
TO ALL.—How many have lost a Father, a Mother, a
Sister, a Brother, or an iunoceut little prattling child ?
! and have not even the shadow of a resemblance to look
upon. Alter the separation, some little toy or a trifling ar
ticle, is olten kept for years, and cherished as a token of re
membrance. How much more valuable would be one ot
j Woodbridge’s perfect Daguerreotypes ot “the loved and
lost ?”
PARENTS. —If you are still blessed with parents, and
no artist has or can trace the lineaments of his or her
i familiar face or form, you may well act the part of Milton,
; to advise or persuade them to visit, without delay, the pal
ace rooms of WILLARD DEPEW, and have
their picture 0 taken iu WOODBRIDGE’S new style.
For a Holiday Gift, of all the feat,
A type of yourself is surely the best,
Then hie for Broadway No. eighty-two,
And get your picture of Willard aud Depew,
