In the year 1846 the Avritev of this article embaikcd in the Drug business in the City of Fhihidelphia, and while thus engaged matle several exj)eriraent3 in regard to ^le nio«t desirable mode of preparing Fluiil Exti-nct.s. His eiTorts being successful — the articles being ap- proved and u.scfl by the medical faculty — he was desirous of placing theiu before the public ; but hesitated for some timel before concluding to resort to news- paper advertising, knowing of the pre- judices existing a^jiiust using advertised Medicmen. But, through tlio advice of friends and those who had used the pre- parations, this objection was overcome. C Commencing in a small way, after 18 years' exertions, the popularit}^ of my articles has extended to all ])arts of the IJnitecl KStatcs, and Avidely through foreign countries- -and this in the face of much opposition. Since their merit and snooesa have been known, every means has been resorted to by unprinci- pled dealers — such as advertising larger bottles at less pi-ice, censuring all other preparations, and even copying my ad- vertisements ; but I am lH*ppy to state that, out of the many who have resorted to this, none have been successful. Kno-wing that many will read this article who are unacquainted with nie, I append remarks from those of my native city whose names are kno\\Ti in all parts of the world. I am acquainted with Mr. H. T. Helmbold. He occupied the Drug Store opposite my residence, and was successful iu conducting the business where others had not been equally so before Mm. I have been favorably impressed with his character and enterprise. ^VTLLIAJM WEIGHTMAN, Firm of Powers & Weightman, Manufacturing Chemists, 9th aad Browning Sts., Philadelphia, For further information, see remarks from largest Manufacturing Chemists in the world, JouKNAL Pharmacy, Dr. Keyser's Letter, Dispensatory, United States, &c.> Prof. Dewees' valuable works on the Practice «f Physic, reiparks made by the late celebrated Dr. Physick, Philadelp'hia ; remarks made by Er.

A QUESTION TO THE READER. If you were about to embark in the Medicine Business, would the merit of an article, or your confidence in advertising, inspire you so to d© ? and would you devote years of application without a thorough investigation ? I will take upon myself the responsi- bility of answering this question, although I have heard thousands remark that " All that is necessary, IS TO ADVERTISE." I have never yet seen any but would hesitate. Many intelligent and persevering men hsive been induced to embark in the business, believing they had this essential element, and after having expended thousands op dollars in bringing it before the community, Ihey find, in a short time, that their article was not successful in curing in a majority of cases, and failure was the inevitable consequence. Advertising does not make merit ; but it makes merit kno^^^l, and that makes both reputation and mone} . I full well know that there are thousands who are envious of the success of others, and who seldom speak in a complimentary manner of the merits of an article, or of the enterprise of any, but I»Avill remark, that I do not believe there is a " DRiiGGLsr " or a "• ]*hysician " in the United States, or the world, who, if he had as good a remedy as mine, would hesitate to pursue the same course adopted by me. My ^^ IB XJ O 13: XJ " not a patent medicine, and I withhold no knowledge of its ingredients. I'he remedy is perfectly safe. My ^Laboratory, and the mode of preparation, has been inspected by thousands of Physicians and Druggists, who ex5)ressed themselves gratified. H, T. HELMBOLD, •tanufacturer of Helmbold's Genuine Preparations. FEMALE IRREGULARITIES. Females, owing to the peculiar and important relations which they sustain, their peculiar organi^zation, and the offices they perform, are sub- ject to many sufierings and ailments peculiar to the sex. Freedom from these contributes in no small degree to their happiness and welfare, for none can be happy who are ill. Not only so, but no one of these various female complaints can long be suffered to run on without involving the general health of the individual, and ere long producing permanent sick- ness and premature decline. Nor is it phiasant to consult a physician, fur the relief of these various delicate affections, and only upon the most urgent necessity will a true woman so fur sacrifice her greatest charm as to do this. The sex will then thank us for placing in their hands simple specifics which will be found efficacious in relieving and curing almost every one of those troublesome complaints peculiar to the sex. LEUCORRH(EA OR WHITES Is one of the most common and annoying diseases of females. Hun- dreds suffer on in silence, and hundreds of others apply vainl}^ to drug- gists and doctors, who either merely tantalize them with the hope of a cure or apply remedies which make them worse. It is analogous to Spermatorrhoea of the male. It is a white discharge, proceeding from the vagina and sometimes from the womb itself. 1 would not wish to assert in this book anything that would do injustice to the afflicted, but I am obliged to say, that though it may be produced from excessive exhaustion of tiie powers of life, by laborious employment, unwholesoihe air and food, profuse menstruation, the use of tea and coU'ee, and fre- quent chiklbirth; it is far oftener caused by direct irritation, applied to the mucous membrane of the va4^ina itself. Many of the symptoms of leucorrhoea are occasionally identical with gonorrhoea. The reader will remember that we advance the opinion that gonorrhoea in the male occasionally originated in this disease, even in virtuous and married life. From its causes it is peculiar to adult life, although children are often affected with transient inflammation of the vagina, from atmos- pheric and other causes, vicious practices and examples of servants and schoolmates; and unless decisive measures are instituted, aflections of the womb and dropsy supervene. For Female Weakness and Debility, Whites or Leucorrh«a, Too Pro- fuse, Exhausting, Too Long Continued Periods, for Prolapsus and Bearing Down, or Prolapsus Uteri, we ofil'r the most perfect specific known; Helmbold's Compound Extract of Buchu. Direictions for use, diet, and advice aiccompany. From the *'3^merican ^mxml of ^^amacj/* May, 1865, edited by WM. PROCTOR, JR., Professor of Pharmacy, m llie Pliiladelpliia College of Pliarmacy. " Will the Fluid Extract go out of use owing to the high price, or can we have some authoritative modification of the formulas by which w^e can make them at a more reasonable cost?" " If the latter, shall the change be in the quality of the men- struum, or in the manner of applying it, so as to reduce the quantity requisite ? Can there be a convocation of the Committee of Revision to authorize some new method or modification of the present recipes ?" AVith regard to the contemplated change in the quantity, or in the menstruum itself, in the preparation of fluid extracts, I would take occasion (bo say that in medicine the health of the patient is the great object to be gained. The cost df the material is something, but when put into the scale with human health, and often human life, it is hardly worthy of con- sideration at all. My Buchu (Helmbold's) will continue to be made as formcrl}^, and if it cannot be maintained at present prices, they will have to be advanced to meet the advance in the price of material. To such as desire quantity insteaxl of quality w^e would say that w^ater is a cheap commodity, and may be readily added by the person using the medicine if he desires to do so. \ H. T.

H. T. Hklmbold, Druggist : Dear Sir: I have been a sufferer for upward of ■fewenly years with fravel, bladder aud kidney affections, during which time I Imve used various uiediciual piepa- T.itions, aud been under the treatiueul of the most eminent pbysiciaus, exjjerieucing but little relief. Having seeu your prcnnnitions extensively advertised I cousulted uiy family pliysiciau in regard to using your Extract Uuchu. I did this because T had used all kinds of advertised remedies, and had found them worthless, and souio quite injurious; in fact, I diapaired of ever t;elting well, aud determined to use no remedroa hereafter uulesa I knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use ■your remedy. As you adverliaed that it was composed of buchujcubebs and Juniper berries, it occurred to me and niv physician as an excellent combination ; aud, with his adv^e, after an examination of the article, and consult- ing again with tbe Druggist, I concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight mouths ago, at which time I was confiued to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished and gratified nt the beneficial e.Tect, and after usiun it tliree weeks whs •able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing to you a full statement of my case at the time, but thouxht my im- j>rov«taeut miiclit 8.

Hklmbold : Dear Sir : About two years ago I was troubled with both inflammation of the kidneys and gravel, when I resorted to several remedies without deriving; any benefit whatever : and, seeing your Extract Buchu advertised, I pro- cured a few bottles and used them. The result was a complete cure in a short time. I regard your Extract Buchu decidedly the best remedy extant for any and all diseases of the kidneys, and I am quite confident that it will do all you claim for it. You may publish this if you desire to do so. Yours respectfully, EDWIN M. FEAZEL. CHRONOLOGY OF THE WAR FROM 1860 TO 1865. ^L : — 26.

I feel that a knowledge of tlie result of our use of your Buchu with the children under our charge may save many a Superintendent and Matron of Boarding Schools and Asylums a great amount of annoyance ; and many a poor child suffering more from weak- ness than from habit, may be spared punishment, that is (not knowing it as a Aveakness instead of a bad habit) most unjustly inflicted upon them. Thank- ing you on behalf of the children, and hoping others may be alike benefited. I am respectfully yours, COL. YOUNG, General Sup't and Director.

They occur in per- sons disposed to acid stomach and chalky concretions. THE GRAVEL. GRAVEL ensues from neglect or im- proper treatment of the kidneys. Tliese organs being weak, tlie water is not ex- pelled from the bladder, but allowed to re- main; it becomes feverish and sediment forms. It is from this deposit that the Btone is formed and gravel ensueso DROPSY Is a collection of water in some parts of the body, and bears different names, ac- cording to the parts affected, viz.: When generally dittuswl over the body, it. is called Anasarca ; when of the abdomen, Ascites ; wUtsn oi the cheat, HydrotUomx. TREATMENT. Helmbold's highly concentrated com- pound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the best remedies for diseases of the blad- der, kidneys, gravol, dropsical swellings, rheumatism, and gouty affections Under this head we have arranged Dysuria, or difR(!ulty and pain in passing water, scanty secretion or small and frequent discharges of water. Strangury or stopping of water, Hematuria or bloody urine, gout and rheu- matism of the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but increase of color or dark water. It was always highly recommended by the late Dr. Physick in these affections. This medicine increases tlie power of digestion and excites the absorbents into healthy exercise, by which the watery or calcare(ytis depositions and all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain and inUfim- matlon, are reduced, and is taken by Men, AVomen and CUIIdren.

I have employed the medicines of Mr. Helmbold in numerous instances within the last tliree years, and have always found them extremely efticacioua, especially in diseases of the urinary organs. Gonorrhoea, Syphilis, &c. I have no hesitation in pro- nouncing them of inestimable value, and worthy the confidence of the faculty. W. A. COLEMAN, M. D. June 20, 1857. CURE OF TETTER.

It was borrowed from those rude practitioners by the English and Dutch physicians, on whose r«- commendation it was employed in Europe, and has now come into general use. It is given chiefly in gravel, chronic catarrh of the bladder, morbid irritation of the bladder and urethea, for female weakness and debility, for prolapsus and bearing down, or prolapsus uteri, diseases of the pros- tate gland, retention or incontinence of urine, and all diseases requiring the aid of a diuretic arising from a loss of tone in the parts concerned in its evacuation. It is also recommended in cases of dyspepsia, chronic rheumatism, cutaneous affections «Bd dropsy. To cure these diseases we must bring into action the muscles which are engaged in their various functions. To neglect them, however slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect the bodily health and mental powers. Our flesh and blood are supported from these sources. Persons at every period of life, from in- fanaj to old age, and in every state of health, are liable to be subjects of these diseases. The causes in many instances are unknown. The patient has, however, an admirable remedy in HELMBOLD'S FLUID EXTRACT OF BUCHU, and when taken in early stages of the disease, none suffer to any extent. It allays pain and inflammation, is free from all injurious properties, pleasant in its taste and odor, and immediate in its action. It is the ANCHOR OF HOPE TO THE THYSICIAN, and was always so esteemed by the late eminent Dr. Physic The proprietor, with upwards of thirty thousand unsolicited certificates and hundreds of thousands of living witnesses of its cura- tive properties, accumulated within fifteen years, has not been in the habit of resorting to their publication, he does not do this, from the fact that his remedies rank as standard, they do not need to be propped np by certificates. The science of medicine, like the Doric column, should stand simple, pure, a/id ?najestic, Jiaving fact for its basis, 'induction for its pillar, and truth alone for its ccyv.
