Babbitt's best Saleratus is prepared entirely different from other Saleratus. All the deleterious matter extracted in such a manner as to produce Bread, Biscuit, and all kinds of Cake, without containing a particle of Saleratus when the Bread or Cake is baked; thereby producing| wholesome results. Every particle of Saleratus is turned to gas and passes through the Bread or Biscuit while baking: consequently nothing remains but common salt, water and flour. You will readily perceive, by the taste of this Saleratus, that it is entirely different from other Saleratus. When you purchase one paper you should take the old paper with you, and be very particular and get the next exactly like the first (name and picture, twisted loaf bread, with a glass effervescing water on the top). Full directions for making Bread with Sour Milk and Cream Tartar, and all kinds of Pastry; also for making Soda water; also directions for making Seidlitz Powders will accompany each package. B. T. BABBITT, Nos. 68 and 70 Washington St., N. Y., and Nɔ. 88 India St., Boston. PURE CONCENTRATED POTASH, In 6 lb. cans-Six pounds of this Potash are equal to twelve pounds of common Potash. This article is broken into small pieces, suitable for retailing in the smallest quantities. The attention of Druggists is especially called to this Potash. Cases of 1 doz., 2 doz., 8 doz., and 6 doz. The Proprietor of this POTASH has for many years seen the necessity of having some reliable standard for the strength of POTASH. The adulteration has become so general, that it has, notwithstanding its valuable properties, gone nearly out of use. The Proprietor has taken the responsibility of subscribing his name to every package, and warrants the strength to be uniform, and when used, always producing the same results. Potash many times is adulterated with salt, which is destructive in making soap; it makes the ladies say they did not have good luck, etc. One other reason that Potash has gone out of use is, it is so unpleasant to handle, being put up in wooden casks, and becoming a liquid in many cases, and very troublesome to the retailers. Now the Proprietor first obtains pure Potashes, always being the same strength, and producing the same results; and will warrant it in all cases, if the directions are followed, to produce double the effect in making soaps, and all other purposes for which Potash is used, with full directions for making the best of Soft, Hard, or Fancy Soaps, in one to five hours, without smell in the house, if made often while the grease is sweet. It is made with little trouble; the ley is all prepared in five or ten minutes, and the kettle can stand on the stove, at a moderate boil, until its contents becomes soap, which is usually in about one to five hours. The soap must be all rinsed out of the clothes before drying. B. T. BABBITT'S SOAP POWDER! This SOAP POWDER has been in use for the last ten years, and gives the best of satisfaction. There have been many kinds introduced in market, but no brand retains patronage except BABBITT'S, and that continues to gradually increase. One family will get all their clothes hung out by 10 o'clock, and very white at that; this leads to inquiry. Neighbors will say, how is it that you always get your washing out so much earlier than others, and so much whiter. The answer is, we use BABBITT'S SOAP POWDER. This has been many times related in my office. One man at the South got a box of SOAP POWDER to sell; he kept it about six months, thinking it a dead letter; finally took some in his own house for his wife to try, and the result led to the above description, and the sale commenced rapidly. This SOAP POWDER not only whitens the clothes, but when soaked according to directions over night, it causes the dirt to rinse out with slight rubbing, which is always very desirable for the ladies. No bleaching on the grass is required, and the clothes will last three times as long from not being rubbed to pieces. B. T. BABBITT, Nos. 68 and 70 Washington St., N.

FOR SALE BY ALL GROCERS AND DRUGGISTS. 72 BRANDRETH'S PILLS Are the Original Vegetable and Universal Medicine, and weighed by the public 108 years, and not found wanting. Intrinsic merit is relied upon as their claim to public favor; because their usefulness is measured by their curative, their purgative qualities. They cure or greatly relieve all disease, because they open all the natural outlets; and no disease or pain can affect us EXCEPT WHEN SOME OF THESE ARE CLOSED. BRANDRETH'S PILLS have restored millions to health, when all other medicines had failed, and the patient left to die. Though entirely vegetable and innocent, yet they are more searching and more to be depended upon as expellents than calomel. While sickness is present, they may be used daily; because they do not take any essential or good property from the blood, but actually impart to it vitalizing qualities. They require no change in diet or especial care against cold or otherwise. Fevers, Rheumatisms, Influenza, Colds, Coughs, and especially sudden attacks of severe sickness, often resulting in death, which all are subject to contract when obliged to expose themselves to the changes of our variable climate-these, two or three doses of BRANDRETH'S PILLS cure, save long doctor's bills and life. Let the wise consider. FEVER AND AGUE CURED. Mr. John Y. Haight, Supervisor of New Castle, Westchester county, desires the attention of those interested. He says, November 1858: "I was, about two years ago, attacked with fever and ague, which, notwithstanding the best medical advice, continued to sorely afflict me for six tedious months. I became yellow as saffron, and reduced to skin and bone. Medicine and physicians were abandoned in despair. As an experiment, I concluded to try a single dose of six of Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills on an empty stomach, early in the morning. This first dose seemed to arouse all the latent energies of my exhausted frame; I feared the worsttheir purgative effect was different from anything I had ever used or heard of. At length this effect ceased, and I seemed lighter and breathed freer. That evening I was, indeed, sensibly better, and slept soundly all night. The next day I followed the same course, and took the same dose of Pills. I continued to take the Pills in this way about three weeks, when I found myself entirely cured. It is two years ago, and I have had no return; my health has been surprisingly good, and I have used no medicine since. I have made this statement in accordance with what I conceive to be my duty." OBSTRUCTION. A young lady, beautiful and healthy, took cold, which caused a serious obstruction for two years; her health was broken down, and her beauty departed. At length, Brandreth's Pills were tried; eleven doses, of from two to four, were taken in fifteen days preceding the usual period. Regularity was restored, and her health and good looks recovered. WORMS. Brandreth's Pills are the best vermifuge; they are infallible. A little child, six years old, for some weeks was drooping; its mother gave it one of Brandreth's sugar-coated pills-the next day there came away a worm sixteen inches long, and as large as a child's finger. The child was well. PLEURISY. A gentleman, away from home, was taken with pleurisy; the inflammation was terrible; every breath made him writhe with agony. Eight Brandreth's Pills were swallowed, and warm oil applied locally; the pills operated, and the pain was relieved; plenty of gruel was taken, and six more pills, and the second day the patient was cured. INFLAMMATION OF THE KIDNEYS CURED. Gentleman aged fifty, florid complexion, scrofulous habit; sudden attack of inflammation of the kidneys; pain excruciating. Could neither sit, lie down, nor stand up without mortal agony. He had the assistance of the best Physicians the village afforded, without any mitigation of his sufferings. When hope had departed, as a last means, he swallowed eight Brandreth's Vegetable Universal Pills, and then applied over the seat of the pain a mustard plaster. In five hours the pills operated, and though the pain continued until this effect occurred, yet it then ceased entirely, and he recovered his health in a few days. Over two years have now passed, and there has been no return of the disease. CHRONIC COSTIVENESS CURED. A gentleman of New York suffered from pain in the chest, and dispepsia, in consequence of severe costiveness. He made his will, and fully expected that his days were short. But he was prevailed upon to take one Brandreth Vegetable Universal Pill each night while they benefited him. He commenced, and was relieved even the first day. He took another, and yet another; his hea his health improved, and he still continued to take a pill each night. He did this for three hundred and sixty-five nights, and by that time he had become entirely cured, and added seventy-five pounds to his weight. BRANDRETH'S PILLS are sold at 25 cents per box-with directions-the same sugar-coated. Principal Office 294 Canal Street, New York, BRANDRETH BUILDING. BLACK WRITING INK.
