Directions for Using the Specifics; 
—AND 
DISEASES AND CONDITIONS WHICH THEY CUBE. 
Nursing and Care of Sick Animals.—Separate the seri- 
ously sick from the well ones. Give each a dry, warm, 
well-littered box or stall, free from cold or damp, or foul 
smells. Have sick cows laid on the side with their legs 
under them, in a natural position. With horses, blanket the 
body and neck, and in pneumonia, flannel bandage the legs, 
and, if needful, sling them up. Give no grain, corn-meal, 
or hearty food to sick cattle or horses, only bran mashes, 
hay tea, chopped roots, steamed grain, or mill feed in 
small quantities. * 
No other Medicine or Dose should be given or 
applied when using the HOMEOPATHIC SPECIFICS, 
as it will injure or destroy the effect. 
DOSES—How Much.—Ten to Fifteen Drops for Horses; 
Fifteen to Twenty-five Drops for Cattle or Hogs; Five to Ten 
Drops for Sheep or Dogs; proportionately less for small or 
young animals. 
How Often.—From one-half to three hours in acute, 
and morning and night in old or chronic cases. 
How to Give.—Simply apply the dose to the animals 
tongue, which you may do upon a lump of sugar, apple or 
potato, or in water, and given with a spoon—or with the 
Medicator. If many doses are to be given, put the proper 
number of drops into a clean bottle, adding for each dose a 
spoonful of pure water. Then shake well, and the spoonful 
is the dose. By giving “in alternation” is meant, giving first 
one Specific, then waiting the prescribed time, give the othtr, 
and so on, in turn. IltfIDEZSC.

cold, pulse small and wiry, and the animal dies. If the 
kidneys are involved there is frequent desire, or attempt to 
stale with but little discharge. 
Give—Specific F.F., a dose every fifteen minutes. If 
better, give not so often, but wait, or give at longer intervals. 
If after four or six doses help is not decided, give Specific 
A. A., two doses, the same intervals, especially so if there is 
fever, heat or quick pulse, and so continue the use of A. A. 
and F.F. in alternation until quite relieved; then a dose or 
two of J.K. for indigestion will complete the cure. 
If, however, the kidneys are involved, known by straining 
and frequent attempts to stale, give Specific H.H. (instead 
of the F.F.) in alternation with the A.A., a dose every 
half-hour or hour.

FOR THE CURE OF 
Horses, Cattle, Sheep, Dogs, Hogs & Poultry 
That the diseases of domestic animals—Horses, Cattle, 
Sheep, Dogs, Hogs, and Poultry — are cured V by 
Humphreys’ Homeopathic Veterinary Spe- 
cifics, is as true as that people ride on railroads, send 
messages by telegraph, or sew with sewing machines. It ig 
as irrational to bottle, ball, and bleed animal 3 in order 
to cure them, as it is to take passage in a sloop from New 
York to Albany, or to send your letter in a stage coach 
from Buffalo to Boston. 
For twenty years Humphreys’ Homeopathic 
Veterinary Specifics have been used by Farmers, 
Stockbreeders, Livery Stable znd Turfmen, Horse Railroads, 
Manufacturers, Coal Mine Co npanies, Traveling Hippodromes, 
Menageries, and others handling stock, with perfect success„ 46 
These people, thousands in number, find from re- 
peated experience, that all diseases of domestic 
animals are curedbyHnmplireys’ Homeopathic 
Veterinary Specifics in half the time and at 
half the expense of any other system or treatment. 
That prejudice should exist among those not informed 
against the use of Humphreys' Specifics for 
domestic animals is natural. Animals have so long been 
dosed with enormous quantities of poisonous drugs 
that it requires some boldness to adopt a system at once 
so n. I and yet so efficient. 
While Homeopathic treatment is safe and reliable for 
men. women and children, it is even more so for horses 
and cattle. This is the testimony of more than ticenly 
years’ successful treatment with Humphrey*’ Veter- 
inary Specifics in every form of disease and by every 
class of persons. 
The Specifics area vast improvement over the ordinary 
form of Homeopathic medicines, or tinctnres, being nmrh 
more simple, safe, reliable, and efficient. 
Hundreds of Animals are destroyed every year by giving 
crude Homeopathic medicines in the old school doses. 
Humphreys* Veterinary Specifics are pre- 
pared as they should be used, —doses strong enough to cure, 
and not strong enough to injure. Homeopathic tinctures 
may seem at first sight to be cheaper, yet they are really 
more expensive, as a larger number of medicines has to 
be purchased, while in buying th« Specifics you get 
just what you want. 47 
A case of Humphreys’ Homeopathic Veter- 
inary Specifics consists of neat BLACK WALNUT 
CHEST, 8 by 6 inches, and 41-2 in depth, with lock; and 
key; the MANUAL, or BOOK of DIRECTIONS ; the 
MEDICATOR, and TEN ONE-OUNCE FLAT VIALS 
of MEDICINE; each holding fifty doses, lettered and 
labelled to correspond with the book, and bottle o£ 
Witch Hazel Oil, all as described below. 
(See picture on Und page.} 
The MANUAL or BOOK, gives a full account of all 
diseases of Hoeses, Cattle, Sheep, Dogs, Hogs, and 
Poultry, each in their appropriate chapters. Every 
disease is given in full, with its symptoms and stages, 
and the treatment is simple, direct, and easily under- 
stood, so that any person of ordinary intelligence can give 
the medicines correctly. Indeed, Mb. Geo. E. Wabing, 
the highest authority on this subject, says : “ I consider 
Dr. Humphreys’ Veterinary Manual the only 
book sufficiently simple and direct for farmers’ use." 
The MEDICATOR is a small bent glass tube, invented by 
Db. Humphreys, with a funnel end and rubber cap, by 
means of which the proper dose of medicine for any 
animal is at once taken from the bottle, and by simply 
pressing on the rubber cap, the dose is given to a Hobse. 
Cow, Sheep, Dog, or even Hog, in a moment, without 
trouble, delay, or danger. 
A case of Humphreys’ Homeopathic Veter- 
inary Medicines, with Book, Medicator, and Ten 
Bottles of Specifics, all complete, is sold for Eight 
Dollars, and is sent free to any address, by express on 
the receipt of price 48 
The advantages of Humphreys* Homeopathic 
Veterinary Specifics over every other medioine or 
system are these; 
I.—You have a Specific Remedy for the 
particular disease or complaint yon wish 
to cure. If the disease is Colic, or Cough* 
or Founder* or Heaves, or Pneumonia, or 
Indigestion, or Lameness, or from the 
Kidneys* yon have at once the Specific to core 
it Yon know just what to do, and how to do it 
U,—You give the medicine at once. Not an 
hour or a moment need be lost Yon need not 
prepare or mix it It is ready just as you want rr. 
MI. -You give the medicine without trouble 
—no tying, bottling, choking, or harsh treatment, 
irritating the animal and endangering the owner. 
A horse need not even be taken from his traces, 
or a cow from her stall. A herd of cattle or s 
flock of sheep may be medicated with but little 
difficulty. 
IV.—You are in no danger of poisoning or 
drugging the animal to death, as is 
very often done under other modes of treatment. 
And is constantly being done by using the usual 
Homeopathic Tinctures. 
V.—The cure is much more rapid. The medi- 
cine takes effect at once. Yon cure in one-half or 
one fourth the time required by other methods. 
VI#—The animal gets up quicker and better* 
because it haa but to reoover from the result* of 
drugging, poisoning, of bleeding, bj which eo 
riQf nmtli ara mined. 49 
VII.—The treatment costs less than the usual 
drugs or mixtures, or even the simple Homeopathic 
Medicines. One bottle of Specifics answers in place of 
several bottles of simples. One of our $8 CASES, 
with BOOK, lasts many years. 
VIII.-V ou will save many animals by this 
treatment, which you will lose under 
any other method. 
WHO USE THEM. 
Humphreys’ Homeopathic Veterinary Specifics are used by those 
engaged in the breeding, handling or sale of Domestic Animals of any kind, 
especially by— 
Farmers and Dairymen. The annual breeding of stock, and production 
of milk, constantly occasion more or less accident or sickness, which must be 
met and cured, or loss results. In a herd of fifty cattle, an annual loss of one 
or two cows from Milk Fever, Puerperal Fever, Dropping after 
Calving, etc., to say nothing of Pleuro-Pneumonia, or other more 
destructive diseases is common. Nine-tenths of these losses may be 
avoided by the use of these very simple and efficient Specifics. 
Livery Stable Men, Professional Horse Dealers, and Horse 
Fanciers,—such men cannot afford to do without these Specifics. The 
cure is so much quicker, the medicine is given with so much less trouble, 
and the result is so much more satisfactory that these Specifics are almost 
a necessity—See what Messrs. I. A Sol. Mehrbach, of 24th St., and 
others say. 
Importers and Breeders of Blooded Stock.—Where the loss of a 
single animal involves hundreds or even thousands of dollars,—these men 
know the value of different systems of treatment and means of cure, and 
their certificates show how they value the Veterinary Specifics. 
Horse Itailrond Men, in cities and large towns, have fully tried all 
systems of treatment and forms of remedies, and for simplicity, ECONOMY 
and CERTAINTY OF CURE, give these the preference. Out of thousands of commendation* we select the 
following new and additional

I have used HUMPHREYS’ HOMEOPATHIC VETER- 
INARY SPECIFICS for the past four years in the stables of 
Commodore Kittson, and the results have been en- 
tirely satisfactory. We use the medicines exclusively for 
Coughs, Colds, Fevers, Eruptions, Stittness—and in short 
any ailment that our horses may have. Previous to using this 
medicine, our losses by death were large; since using the 
Specifics exclusively, ice have not met with a single loss, 
except one miu'e who ran a nail in her foot, and died three 
weeks afterwards with Paralysis. This medicine should be 
used in all stables, as it can be given with more intelligence 
by the average man, than any other kind of medicine.

This may Certify, That I have used HUMPHREYS’ HOMEO- 
PATHIC VETERINARY SPECIFICS two years, and find that they 
do all that is claimed for them. I had thirty horses sick with "Pink 
Eye,” and did not lose a horse. I find for COLIC, either spasmodic, 
flatulent, or renal, the Specifics, given according to the directions in the 
book, will relieve every time, quicker than any other medicine I have 
ever used. I use them in every case of any kind, and nothing else. 
ANDREW JACKSON, Supt., Monumental Livery Stables, 
35 and 36 North Street, Baltimore, Md. 
Chicago, January 24, 1884. 
HUMPHREYS’ S. H. M. CO.: 
Gentlemen—Since having had charge of the horse department of the 
North Chicago City Railway, I have treated with your VETERINARY 
SPECIFICS the various diseases incident to horses, and have had some 
very severe ones, but have been almost always successful. I had one 
very bad case of COLIC, so severe that I feared your Specifics were not 
powerful enough, and used Allopathic medicines. The horse died, and 
I am now convinced I could have saved him by your treatment. Since 
that time I have used no other medicines and have cured many bad cases 
of PINK EYE, DISTEMPER, INDIGESTION, COLIC and COLDS. I 
shall use no other medicines so long as I can get yours, for they are the 
best in the world. Yours truly, N. ATKINS. Snpt., 
North Chicago City Railway. 
HUMPHREYS’ S. H. M. CO., New York: 
Mr. WM. B. SALISBY, Foreman of Adams’ Express Stables, states 
that, “ I have been in this barn for several years and always used Allo- 
pathic medicines until your agent called upon me, some two or three 
years since, and induced me to try a case of your VETERINARY SPE- 
CIFICS. They have proved so SUCCESSFUL in EVERY INSTANCE, 
that I think there are no such effioacious medicines as yours. They are 
all you claim for them, and I will say that as long as I have anything to 
do with herses I shall use no other, and will recommend them to all per- 
sons having care of horses.” 
HUMPHREYS’ H. S M. CO., New York: 
Mr HINSER, the Foreman of the American Express Co.’s Stables, 
states that he has treated horses for various diseases, such as PNEU- 
MONIA, PINK EYE, DYSENTERY, COLDS, COUGHS, COLICS, 
etc., with entire success. He had a mare that had frequent attacks of 
Colic and was unfit for work for a week after an attack. Since treating 
her with your VETERINARY SPECIFICS she had a few, but is now 
permanently cured. I also cured a mule belonging in a brick yard—the 52 
woret case I ever saw. There were several hundred people who wit-

HUMPHREYS’ S. H. M. 00.: 
Gentlemen—The result of a trial of your VETERINARY SPECI- 
FICS, notwithstanding my prejudices, has been most satisfactory. 1 
have used them in every case of sickness among my stock, and found 
them successful. One case in particular: A horse which was subject to 
the Colic, which has not taken me at any time but twenty to thirty min- 
utes to effect a cure. My prejudices have been removed, and I think 
there ar 3 no such medicines as yours. You have my order for a supply. 
Yours truly, PATRICK BRENNAN,

HUMPHREYS’ S. H. M. CO.: 
Gentlemen—Two years since I bought a case of your VETERINARY 
SPECIFICS, and during this time have treated very many cases of sick* 
ness among horses and ALWAYS SUCCESSFULLY. Mr. Thomas 
Donegan has a horse subject to Colic, and I have treated him three time*. 
On one occasion he was given up for dead, but by the nse of yonr SPE- 
CIFICS I brought him out all right. With my own horses I have met 
with some cases of LUNG FEVER, PINK EYF and COLIC, but had 
no difficulty in curing them, for they are so EASILY ADMINISTERED 
and effectual. It needs no particular skill to administer them, and your 
Veterinary Manual gives all necessary information.

HUMPHREYS’ S. H. M. CO., New York: 
Gentlemen—Having always used Allopathic medicines in treatment 
of veterinary cases I was mncb prejudiced against your Homeopathic 
preparations, but one of your agents induced me to try them. I did so 
and found them to act like a charm in cases of PIN K EYE, COLDS and. 
PNEUMONIA; in short they have given PERFECT SATISFACTION. 
They are a great improvement on the old method, so EASY, QUICK and 
SURE. I shall continue to use them whilst I have care of horses.

We request that you send us promptly, 
Catalogue and Price List. 
Our President, Mr. C. J. Hamlin, has for some 
time past, been using your Specifics at his farm, 
and they have proved so beneficial, that 
we have concluded to adopt them for the bams 
and private stables of the different parties connected 
with this company. We have, including farm and 
stables, between 400 and 500 horses and mules, and 
through Mr. Hamlin’s recommendations, many 
parties have adopted your remedies. We think 
we are entitled to your best terms. 
Yours very truly,

Gentlemen: 
We have recently been using your Specific A. A., for 
Milk Fever in Cows, with great success. I think if 
the directions in your valuable book are strictly followed, 
every case of Milk Fever would be cured. 
We are now using the Milk Fever Specific as a preventive, 
and do not expect to have another case in our herd of 130 
cows. 
We have also used your Specific for Reten- 
tion of Afterbirth in Cows, and find it to work like 
a charm. 
I believe every farmer would profit by having a Case of 
your Specifics on hand, ready for use, and by making 
himself familiar with your very valuable book. We do not 
mean to be without them in future. 
Yours truly, 
ISAAC W. WHITE

NERYOUS DEBILITY 
Is known by a weak, nervous, exhausted feeling; a lack ol 
animation or energy, often with confused head, depressed 
mind, weak memory, or with debilitating, involuntary dis 
charges—the consequence of excesses, indiscretion, or men- 
tal overwork. This condition finds a sovereign cure in 
Humphreys’ Homeopathic Specific

despondency, restores vitality, arrests the drain and rejuve 
nates the entire system. Perfectly harmless, been in use

efficient and safe remedy. Its highest praise is that it is 
extensively imitated. It is especially efficient for the young 
and indiscreet, and the overworked, overtaxed, or care- 
worn in active or advanced life. 
Price.—$1.00 per single vial; or $5.00 for a Package of 
Five Yials and a $2.00 Yial of Powder, which is important in

HUMPHREY S’ 
HOMEOPATHIC SPECIFICS 
Are designed to meet the special needs of families or in- 
valids. Something that mother, father, nurse, or invalid 
can take or give to meet the need of the moment; some- 
thing to cure the Headache or Toothache, the Diarrhea 
or Colic, the Croup or Quinsy, or other ailment or dis- 
ease, These constantly occur, and are at once safely and 
promptly cured by these Harmless Sugar Pills, far better 
than by taking Herb Teas, Drugs or Pills, or Cure-alls. 
Thousands of Families have used these Humphreys’ 
Specifics for the last thirty years with perfect 
success, They have cured with them all the diseases 
occurring in the family, and they rarely have serious 
sickness or occasion to send for the doctor. Not only 
have they better health and greater freedom from disease, 
but they save Thousands op Dollars in the expense of 
drugs and needless doctor bills. 
With a case of Humphreys’ Specifics, at the ex- 
pense of but a few dollars, every family may have in 
their hands a source of relief and help in any emergency, 
and may not only render themsel ves comfortable, but in 
thousands of cases effect an ultimate cure.

other system is so economical. A twenty-five cent vial of 
Specifics contains over twenty portions of medicine ; a 
fifty cent vial, over fifty doses of medicine; while a Ten 
Dollar Case contains nearly two thousand doses. The
