. A
fHNIIE doet Inc promulgated with much assurance
Il by many empires of he present day, that me
dicne will all diseases, not and never can be
true; aud he who asserts it, is either tool or an i'm
poster. But it is fact demonstrate by experience,
that combinations of medicine may be formed from the
VEGETABLE KINGDOM that will act so UNIVERSALLY on
the s,sem when taken sessonaby and in udicous pro
portions las eme, nine cases ont OF ten all diseases
| within the reacl. and power OF medicine,
From the well known and established reputation OF
Ca,omei it has long been employed by the empric,
and scientific physician, as one OF the most powerful
agents for the removal of disease. BY the former, al
most every lAnd has been deuged with nostrlms, that
their authors claimed SPECIFIES ia every disease Incl
dent to the human family. The folly OF these pretcn
sions needs comment, Tor accurate chemical lVesti-
cation has shown that the base OF most OF the Panaceas,
| C:toIicons &c. which lave been tr,,mpeed before
the community, with much assurance, is Caiomel,
mercury in some form. Nov, il this potent articee
even in the hands ofhe most skiltul ply sica frequent
ly exers influence the human system, unforeseen
and entirely beyond the control OF ai undermining h
constitutions aud bringing premature Old age, disease
and death, what res, should be expected When pre-
scribed by the ignorant Could their many thousand
victims speak, voice from hetomb would dispel
he sbetifc' deuson that now s"ays the minds of the
living.
Humane Physicians deplore the sad evils resulting
from the mercuria practice, aud will gladly h the m
PRODUCTION of article that safely be substituted tor
calomel. They feel, and that kesly. the uncertainty
of its prima. operation; they cannot whether viii
be favorable ntavohle They also k'lo7o and teel,
furious secondary consequences must follow But they
must choose the least Of evils: they know no other
article that will torid HOer, remove obstruc
ton and in free action the whole glanduar system,
and it being ndispes,by necessary to do THIS, they
continue its use, notwithstanding the evil consequences
| which follow.
They have long desired and sought an article that
would produce the good effects OF this drug, without
sLjectng the patient its deiete,aols results Such
des,eranm it is believed, has at length been obaine.'
in the article presented to the public.
The ,ropretors of this article keeping in view the
fact that .cise and 5ee,olem Being, has placed with
in the reach of ALL remedies adapted to the diseases Ia
cien to the climate they in,ab; and knowing, like
wise that of the diseases of the South and Nest
are based upon organic Or functional arrangement OF
the liver; directed ter attention to those articles which
act more especially the hillary organs.
After long, laborious, and expensive research they
have succeeded in extracting substance from the u
MArO, which, from its peculiar effect upon the hepa-
tic Or hillary organs they have dcnomnaed UtpdtiHe
1t is mcdic.e that will produce all the beneficial
results of Caomel in both acute and chronic ii se..ses,
without the possibility of producing the leerousde tcon
sequences common to that article.
Its action upon the constitution is universal, no part
of tne system escaping its influence. 1t IS however,
upon the organs of secretion and exeretion, that its
great power is particularly manifested hence 1t is pc
culary adapted to tie treatment of bilious fe7'ers and
other diseases in which torpidiy congestion OF the
liver and boltGi circle prevail.
1t is admissible in all cases, where it is necessary to
cleanse the stomach aud bowels. 1t removes ebsruc
ton aud excitcs quick and healthy action of the liver
and other glan'luar rcea OF the abdomen Being dit
fushlc i'll its operation, it produces free circulation
in the vesst Is the surface OF the body accompanied
by gentle persprtion 1t does not exhaust like dras-
tic purges still, its action is more UNIVERSAL and may
often be repeated not merely with safety but with gre's
ben fit This becomes ndispcnsa|y necessary in
