STANDARD HOUSEHOLD REMEDIES.
DR. D. JAYNE'S FAMILY MEDICINES
Are prepared with great care expressly for family use, and ure so admirably calculated to preserve the health and remove disease, that no family should ever be without them.
THEY CONSIST OF
JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT, for Coughs, Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis, and other Pulmonary Affections.
JAYNE'S TONIC VERMIFUGE, for Worms, Dyspepsia, Piles, General Debility, &c. JAYNE'S SPECIFIC FOR THE TAPE WORM. It never fails.
JAYNE'S CARMINATIVE BALSAM, for Bowels and Summer Complaints, Colics, Cramps, Cholera, &c.
JAYNE'S ALTERATIVE, for Scrofula, Goitre, Cancers, Discases of the Skin and Bones.
JAYNE'S AGUE MIXTURE, for the cure of Fever and Ague.
JAYNE'S LINIMENT, or COUNTER IRRITANT, for Sprains, Bruises.
JAYNE'S SANATIVE PILLS, for all Bilious Complaints and Diseases of the Liver ; a valuable Alterative and Purgative Medicine.
JAYNE'S HAIR TONIC, for the Preservation, Beauty, Growth, and Restoration of the Ilair.
JAYNE'S LIQUID HAIR DYE, also, AMERICAN HAIR DYE, (in powder,) each of which will change the Hair from any other color to a beautiful Black.
These Medicines have now been before the public for thirty years, and during this long period the demand for them has been constantly increasing, and their reputa- tion gradually spreading, until their great curative powers have become known and thoroughly appreciated in all quarters of the world. While, however, the Proprietor is fully persuaded that they will give very GENERAL, if not UNIVERSAL satisfaction, it is not pretended that they are "CURE-ALLS," nor. that they are, in all cases and under all circumstances, absolutely infallible. Yet he can truly say, after thirty-six years' experience, in an extensive and diversified practice, and with a full knowledge of the medical qualities and effects of the component parts of each of the above-named articles, that there is no combination of medicines which have been so generally suc- cessful as these, in removing the various diseases for which they are severally recom- mended.
It should be borne in mind, too, that the popularity of these "Family Medicines" is not confined to the illiterate and credulous, but innumerable persons of intelligence and character, occupying the most prominent stations in society,-too honest to impose upon others, and too sagacious to be imposed upon themselves,-not only use, but speak of them in the highest terms of praise, for the uniformity of their success in subduing diseases.
THESE MEDICINES ARE PREPARED ONLY BY
DR. D. JAYNE & SON, 242 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, And may be had of Agents throughout the country.
