Dr. KENNEDY, of Rexbury, Has discovered in one of our COMMON PASTURE WEEDs a remedy that cures EVERY KIND F HUMOR; FROM THE WORST SCROFULA DOWN TO A COM- MON PIMPLE. H’ HAS TRIED IT IN OVER ELEVEN hundred cases, and never failed intwo cases, (both thunder humor) He has now in his ion over two hundred certificates of its vir- ue, all within twenty miles of Boston. ‘Two bottles are warranted to curea nursing sore mouth. One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of pimples on the fare. Two to three bottles will clear the system of biles. Two bottles are warranted to cure the worst canker in the mouth and stomsch. Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst case of Erysipelas. One to two bottles are warranted to cure all humor inthe eyes. ‘Two bottles are warranted to cure running of the ears and blotches among the hair. Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt and running ulcers One bottle will cure scaly eruption of the skin. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the ‘worst case of ‘orm. Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most desperate case of rheumatism Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the salt rheum. Five to eight bottles will cure the worst cases of serofula. A benefit fs always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the above quantity is taken. Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this In the vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of itin everycase Sosureas water will extin- guish fire, so sure will this cure humor. I never sold a bottle of it but that sold another; aftera trial It always speaks for itself. There are two things about this herb that appears to me surpris- ing; first that it Ate in our pastures, in some laces quite plentiful, and yet its value has never n known until I discovered it in 1546—second, that it should cure all kinds of humor. In order to give some idea of the sudden rise and aire popularity of the discovery, I will state that In April, 1853, 1 peddled it, and sold about 6 bottles per day—in April, i854, I sold over 1,000 bottles per day of it. Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been in business twenty and thirty years, say that no- thing inthe annals of patent medicines was ever like it. There is a universal praise of it from all varters. ¥ In my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors—but since its introduction as a gencra! family medicine, it and wonderful virtues heve been found fn {t that I never suspected Seyeral cases of epileptic fits—a disease which was oiwaye considered incurable, have been cured by a fow bottles. O, what a mercy if it will prove effectual in all cares of that awful maiady—there ere but few who have scen more of it than I have. I know of scveral cases of Dropsy, all of them pd people cured by it For the various diseases e Liver, Sick Headache. Dyspepsia, Asthma, rand Ague, Pain inthe Side, Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in diseases of the Kid- n &c., the discovery has done more good than any medicine ever known No change of diet ever necessary—eat the best yon can get and enough of it. Dire-tions for Use.—Adults one table spoonfal per day—Childrea over ten years dessert spoon fol—Children from five to eight years, tea spoon- ful. As no directions can be applicable to all con stituttons, take sufficient to operate on the bowels twice a day. MANUFACTURED BY DONALD KENNEDY, No. 120 Warren street, Roxbury, Mass.

There were several of the vi | apie Clans in the store, and one of them seemed to take some interest In my case, and, after asking me some questions, said he had been a dyspentic and had been greatly benefitted by the use of HUOF- LANUW’S GERMAN BITTERS, prepared by fe and he insisted tuet I would try the Bitters. € also called the next day at my room, and in- sisted so much that ! would try them that I asked him to get me one bottle. He did it, and I com- menced taking it as directed, and I was more ben- efitted by it than all the water and medicine I had ever taken. After reaching home one of m neizhbors caine to me for a prescription and icine, (he die sg peptic) and I gave him nearly all the Bitters I ad left, which effected much good in his case.
