FIRUPTIONS.on the-SKIN, SCROFULA, SCORBUTIC
AFFECTIONS, &c.—ALTERATIVE-TON IC POW-
DERS and 'PILLS,' a. certain specific for the removal of se-
condary symptoms, venereal eruptions, pains in the bones, ulce-
rated sore throat, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, sorbutic and
glandular affections, local and general debility, lost of appetite,-.
depression of spirits, and all diseases arising- from an impure
state of the blood. These powders are composed of the finest
Sarsaparilla imported, selected and reduced to powder, by a
method peculiar to the• proprietor, by which process the ahole
of its active principles are secured, arid is combined with tonics
been
and alteratives of the greatest efficacy. They have long
employed by the proprietor aml•the physicians and surgeons
at tending his establishment, with decided success in all the above
affections; and, by a little perseverance; may he' taken with a
positive certainty of effecting a radical cure; .andwhere sndori-
fics or diaphoretics have been employed ;in some of- the above
complaints, these powders have been found to entirely supersede
their use. The virtues of Sarsaparilla have -been. long known
and deservedly appreciated in all secondary symptoms, and in
•those diseases' raising from an impure state of the blood; and
from an extensive experience in this metropolis for the last
twelve years, the proprietor, having employed all the various
pharmaceutical and other preparations, of Sarsaparilla without
success, has ascertained that the certainty and uniformity in the
effects of Sarsaparilla entirely depend' on its being admi-
nistered in substance. combined effiesciously with auxiliaries,
and that the various preparations. under the denomination of
decoctions, extracts, essences, syreps,-&c., &c.; hitherto used,
can never be depended upon for producing any real' or perma-
nent benefit. '1 he proprietor, therefore, has no hesitation in
recommending this invaluable- medicine as the most efficacious
preparation of Sarsaparilla extant, and persons in the habit of
taking it in any form whatever, trre strongly solicited to make
trial of this preparation, and they will soon be convinced'of its
superior efficacy over all others. Persons in the habit of taking
Quinine will find thcse powders by far the most efficacionstonic.
