JONES'S' ESSENCE OF CONCENTRATED COMPOUND

DECOCTION OF RED JAMAICA SARSAPARILLA.
The high esteem in which Sarsaparilla has of late years been
held by Medical Practitioners, its reputation as a safe and effi-
cacious Domestic Medicine, and its consequently extensive use
among all classes of society, has rendered it one of the most
important remedies of the present age.
This preparation is composed of the finest Jamaica Sarsapa-
rilla imported, and prepared in Vacuo, by which the whole of
its essential properties are retained. The Proprietor can con-
fidently recommend it as one of the most efficient preparations
extant. It is most particularly taken as an alterative and pu-
rifier in the following affections :—Eruption of the Skin, Pains
in the Bones, Ulcerated Sore Throat, Scorbutic Affections,
Local and General Debility, and all diseases arising from the
impure state of the blood.
