This medicine had been used for more than years
before an effort was made t" initiate it; but the great
demand for it, and its wonderful success, have induced
great number of persons to initiate it in various way
upwards of fifty different mixtures have been got
I'D in imitation of it, which IS convincing proof Of
its being medicine of great value. Some are selling
sa-sapara 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 virtues others
are using the genuine Panacea in their bottles to per
form cures to obtain certificates to give their own
reputation, &c. Some have even resorted to perjury
to deceive the public. These limitations and aduItera-
tons have, in many instances, protracted the suffer
ingso patients in diseases where the genuine swams
