ROWAND'S TONIC MIXTURE,

FOR FEVER AND AGuE.
TTNEN years have not yet elapsed since it was
L. first regularly submitted to the public; but it
has attained the highest reputation; and has sup
planted every other medicine for the Ague, WHEREBY
or it has been known and appreciated. Already
has it been carried in every direction throughout
tho United States, and still realizes than could
have been anticipated by its most gunc friends.
Thousands of persons have not only been relieved,
but restored to health and vigor through its agcn.
cy; and they now chccrinlly testify, at every OPP
porlunity, to its decided and supreme efficacy. |,
is composed Of such medicinal principles arc
calculated to renew the healthy action of the stom.
aclI liver, and other important digestive organs,
the loss of which harmony is the immediate cause
of the disease. 1t is apparent also, that it produ-
an entire change in the condition of the system,
and certainly destroys the native liability to rclap
SEES of the affection. When the Ague is attended
with any other complaint, the employment OF the
Tonic Mixture will not Interfere with the treat.
ment of the other disease, but will even afford
sstancc by furnishing strength and vigor to the
body during the course OF treatment. Those who
make use of this medicine may be assured that
there is no Arsenic, Banks, Mercury, or any other
article in its composition uniriendy to the human
constitutions; being entirely vegetable extract;
and they may have additional confidence in tho
use thereof, when they perceive that it has the eff
feet of gcntla laxative about the time half bot
tic full has been taKcn-in consequence of which,
there is no part Of the medicine left to lngcr in
the bowels to cause distractions, and other evils,
arising from the use of many of the remedies now
offered for the cure of this affection. 1t has been
used also as preventive, by many who were sub
ect to periodical recurrence of the Chills, and il
has invariably warded off the apprehonded attack.
Observe! The Proprietor, fully satisfied with the
unparalleled and universal success which has con
stantly attended punctual and regular use of tho
Tonic Mixture, in all cases of Fever and Ague
feels warranted in engaging to refund the price tc
all those who have token the medicine in strict
cordance with the prescribed directions, withou
having been perfectly and lastingy cured.
