6Us WAIM's PANACEA.-This Medicine has the spgu

On WANTS. PANACEA.--This Medicine has the singular
~ fortune, Just tribute to its great merit of being recon-
emnded by the celebrated Practitioners of Medicine in
the United States and elsewhere; whereas not one of the
spurious mixtures, made in imitation of it, has the least sup
port from the Medical Faculty. This fact offers an argument
plain and conclusive, that needs only be mentioned to
enforce conviction.
In consequence Of the frauds and imposion
practised reference to my medicine am again induced to
change the form Of my BorTLEs. In future the PANAcEA
will be put in round bottles futed ongitudnay with the
following words, blown in the glass, " SWANS PANAcEA
-PHILADA."
These bottles much stronger those heretofore used
and will have but LABEL which covers the cork with my
own signature it, that the cork cannot be drawn With
out destroying the signature without which none is genuine
The medicine may consequently be known TO be genuine
when my signature is visible; to counterfeit trhich ar be
punishable as forgery.
The Increasing demand for this celebrated medicine has
enabled me TO reduce the price Two Dollars per bottle
thus bringing it within the reach of the indigent.
The Proprietor pledges himself 10 The Public and gives
them the most solemn assurances that this medicine contains
neither mercury any other deP eIcls drug
The Public are cautioned not to purchase my Panacea
cep from myself my accredited agents. OF persons of known
responsibility; and all those will consequently be without
cuse, who shall purchase from any otier persons
