CAUTION TO PURCHASERS.

This medicine had been used for more than years
before an effort was made t. initiate it, but the great
demaEd for it, and its wonderful success have induced
great number of persons to initiate in various ways
upwards of fifty different mixtures have been got
up in imitation Of it, which is convincing proof OF
its being medicine of great value. Some are selling
sarsapara and other syrups, imposing them on the
ignorant for the Panacea; others mixing the genu
inc medicine with moasses, &C., making three bottles
out of one; thus retaining Of its vrtues others
are using the genuine Panacea in their bottles to per-
form cures, obtain certificates to give their own
reputation, &c. Some have resorted to perjury
to deceive the public. These limitations and adultera.
tons have. in many instances, protracted the suffer
ngs of patients in diseases where the genuine Swams
Panacea would have proved instantly cficacicus.
therefore deem it duty owe the public to assure
them, that the composition Of my Panacea is not
known Tor was il ever communicated any other per-
son in any way whatever, and consequently, that all
other mixtures represented to be nine are fraudulent
