CAUTIÍ3N TO STOCK RAISERS
SCREW W0RM & BLOW FLY.
Loudon & Co's
Cherokee L i nim en t.
rrMIE original discovery and the only reli-
X able article for the immediate destruc-
tion of the Screw Worm and Blow Fly.
This Liniment has now been before the
citizens of Texas for over three years, and
has been thoroughly tested as a positive
and speedy exterminator of those destruct-
ive vermin.
Louden A Co. justly claim the discovery
of this great remedy, and until the present
year nootlier Liniment was offered or known
for the relief of the Graziers of Texas,- but
now, the unprecedented popularity of our
Cherokee Liniment has induced—the pecu-
niary reward—the proprietors of the various
imitations afloat,to palm off their worthless
articles upon the unsuspecting, without re-
gard to justice, or any known merit in the
nostrum offered.
We call upon all interested to
BEWARE of all other Liniments
claiming to destroy tlie Screw Worm and
prevent the attack of the Blow Fly, as they
are all imitations, covertly to trifle with the
credulity of the people.
as designing persons have imitated our
Liniment, they will doubtless try to imitate
our original Show bill and nullock, tho bet-
ter to cover their deception, we refer to
the following well known gentlemen in
Texas—many others might be named—who
will vouch for the signal efficacy of our
Liniment, to wit:— r w nenry Elliot and

No expense has been spared by the pro-

Headache Remedy, now offered, seems to have
overcome these difficulties. While its eff«ot#
are most powerful and immediate in curinng é
attack or in keeping it off, it is io perfectly
mild and innocent ab to be used for iiifa.it* vHtH
the greatost effect and safety. This lias now
been attested by so many of the highest mem-
bers of the community, as tcT require no proof.
If taken a few times in asm.iny hours, when
there are indications of an approaching attack,
it is sure in all cases to prevent the attack- If
used for a few weeks, 'the premonitory symp-
toms gradually subside, until they wholly dis-
appear, and never, without some great exter-
nal br predisposing cause, return. If the per-
son neglects to use it till the headache com-
mences, it sometimes cures instantly,—but at
others, the turns will have their course for two
or Jjiree weeks, and then wholly disappear.
Connel's Magic Pain Extractor,
Combines and exhibits five extra IntrinsiR
attributes unknown before, v¡7.—Entire control
over injuries by fire; extracts mortification; re-
lieves all pain, pf even the worst burns, bruises,
sores, &c., almoit instantly; and heals, leaving
no scar. In the following complaints the mag-
ical salve acts like a charm, and is warranted
to please in every case. No one teed pur-
chase the salve upon uncertainties, as we guar-
antee it toaerate more effectually than any oth-
er preparation before the public, or any other
prescription prepared by any medical man in
America.
Its first action is to expel all humor. It wilii
not cease acting until the face is free from al\<
matter that may be lodged undtr the skin. and<
frequently breaking out to the surface. Whem
there is nothing but grossness or dull repulsive
surface, it begins to soften and sotten, until
he skin becomes as smooth and delicate as a
child's.
Hemes' Nerve and Bone Liniment, and th
Indian Specific!
Rheumatism, contri-ted cords, and muele
permanently cured The practitioner of great>
est skill, if honest, generally shrinks in despair
at the prospeet of governing and eradicating
these diseases. His remedies are generally
palliate, and the patient feels happy at any re-
relief from his torments. If his family doctor
gives him any hope of a cure, it is al the end
of a long course of medicine that is to act up-
n the system, or at the expense of drawing
rom the arm his life's bloo'i, until, if cured,
(which'it is next to impessible to be by these
means,) lie has not enough of life left " to be
worth living for." How important, then, a
remedy to chck and eradicate rheumatism and
gout,—to extend and strengthen shrivellyand
knotty cords nnd muscles, till nature and health
have again sway and control. Such you may
rely is Hewes' Nerve and Bone Liniment,
