This medicine had been used for more than Z year,
before an effort was made IT, initiate it; but the great
demand for it, and its wonderful success, have induced
a great number of persons to initiate it in various ways
of fifty different mixtures have been got
up in imitation of it, which IS a convincing proof OF
its being a medicine of great value. Some are selling
sarsapariI,a and other syrups, imposing them on the
ignorant for the Panacea; others are mixing the genu-
inc medicine with molasses, &C.. making three bottles
out of one; thus retaining some of its virtues: others
are using The genuine Panacea in their bottles to per.
form cures, to Obtain certificates to give their own a
reputation, &c. Some have even resorted to perjury
to deceive the public. These limitations and adultera-
,ious have, in many instances, protracted the suffer
inps of patients in diseases where the genuine Swaim's
Panscea would have proved instantly eficacious. I
therefore deem it a duty owe the public to assure
them, that the composition of my Panacea is not
known Eor WASH ever communicated to any other per.
son in any way Whatever; and consequently, that all
other mixtures represented to be mine. are fraudulent
