zenpes are particularly efficacious in carrying
off all gross humols and eruptions, feverish
and bilious complaints, and are the safest and
mildest purgative that can be urged on any
occasion. %
A dose of this medicine given occasionally
during the warm season, will eHectually pro
vent the vomiting and purging tchildren,
