They have long desired and sought an article that
would produce the good effects of this drug, without
subecting the patient to its deieer3ous results Such
desltertum it is believed has at length been obtaneds
in the article now presented to the public.
The proplietors of this article keeping in view the
fact, that wise and beneUolent Being, has placed with
in the reach of all, remedies adapted to the diseases in
cident to the climate they nhabt; and knowing, like
wise, that most of the diseases of the South and Hest
are based upon organic functional arrangement of
the liver; directed their attention those articles which
act more especially on the hillary organs
After long, aborous, and expensive research, they
have succeeded in extracting substance from the To-
MAlO, which, from its peculiar effect upon the hepa-
ti0 or hillary organs, they have denomnated Hebatine

results of Caome, in both acute aud chronic Diseases
without the possibility OF producing the lecrousde tcon
sequences common to that article.

OF the system escaping its influence 1t is however,
upon the organs of secretion and excretion, that its
great power is particularly manifested hence it is pc
culiarly adapted to tie treatment of bilious tevers and
other diseases in which torpdity or congestion of the

tusable in its operation, it produces free circulation
IN the vesstls ON the surface of the body, accompanied
by gentle perspir;ton. II does not exhaust like tlras-
tic purses; still, its action is universal, and may
often be repeated not merely with safety but with greas
benefit. This becomes Indispensable necessary
OF long standing; for in them intense temporary impress
