Wv to the public, that we have just re-
ceived large supply Of the above named
medicines. These medicines have oh.
tanned, both 10 this country and in Eng
land, a most astonishing reputation
They have been used with great surcess
in almost every disease TO which the hu-
man system is subject. The leading
principles Of the Hygeian or Morrison
theory Of disease, are contained in the
following propositions.
LIST. The vital principle is contained in
the Blood. Cd. Every thing in the body
is derived from the Blood. Sd. All dis
eases arise from the impurity in the Blood.
4th. Pain and disease have the same orr
gin, may therefore be considered synoni.

bles is the only ettectual mode Of purify
ing the blood, and Graduating disease.
We have sold these medicines IN this
county for some time. and can give the
testimony of some of the most respecta-
bic citizens of the county, as to their good
qualities. We confidently recommend
them to the public as good article in
