ADDRESS Tue AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Fellow CZens-At n time like the present.
when our country is literally flooded with nostrums
brought from foreign climes, you may perhaps
think itan act OF temerily in us to offer can
ddate for your favor and patronage, Medicine
which is strictly AMERICAN. Common sense,
however, teaches u.s. that those helbs which spring
spontaneously from our naive soil must be better
adapted TO our constitutions than foreign medicines
however useful the latter may have been in the
countries to which they belong The climate of the
United States stands unrvalled for the production
of medicinal plants, and very little estgation
will suffice convince the most skeptical that our
o'cH country is able 10 supply all our wants, indie
pendent OF foreign assistance.
Deeply impressed with the Importance of the n
bove mentioned facts we venture 10 recommend the
INDIAN PURGATlVE to the patronage OF our
fellow czcns in every section of The Union,
natural remedy, applicable constitutions, and
competent to cure every durable disense.
In bringing medicine before the public for the
first time, il generally thought necessary to i'm
press the people with an idea of the difficulties ell
countered in its discovery, the antiquity Of
on gin thus tells us that his medicine is 90 a
newly discovered chemical compound, The result of
many years intense study aud scientific research;
and another ascrihes the honor TO S0mcbOdy'S
Grandfather, DC, Now, the success of medi-
cine must depend on It's own intrinsic merits, and
not the time or manner in which it dscov-
cred, we cannot the of falsy ing, for the
purpose of Investing its orig in with fictitious anti
guilty. Such auXlares not needed the
present occasion, sing dose of the Indian Pur-
gaiive will suffice to convince every invalid (and
to such only we look for an impartial verdicD that
its curatice affects intellectually superior to those
of any other medicine now in Proud of this
superiority, scorn fictitious aid, but give It to
the world for what it is, SIMPLY A compound of
FOUR SIMPLE HERBS, used for the cure of dis
ease bv THE COPPER COLORED WARRIORS
OF THE WEST. One of the herbs is an expecto-
rant, sudorhc, one diuretic, and one a cath
tic. The proper continuation of the above forms "a
medicine, of such EFFICACY and POWER as
has been hitherto unknown in the art of healing
Its mode Of curing first to neutralize all putreia-
tive matter in the body second to cause the ex
pulson of the same through the proper outlets
provided by nature for that purpose consequently
it's action is not confined to the bowels, although
it is greatest there, but extends to the noslrils
throat salivia glands, lungs, shin and kidneys
Each of tho above drains is intended by nature
for the discharge of an excreton impurity peou-
liar itself, and although we may for time com
pei the constitution TO eVacuate the whole whole
through one drain, such treatment cannot fail to
derange the mechanism of the body, aud utterly
ruin the health of the patient. 1t is true that all
diseases arise from impurities OF the blood, but it is
also true that nature has provided many different
channels for the discharge of these impurities -
therefore not likely to benefit the patient
by tramphng on the laws oil nature in bringing all
the different kinds Of excretory matter through one
channel hence the evil of attempting to cure all
diseases by course OF sweating, vomiting, or
physicng, any other method which opens only
class of eXcretOfles.
No medicine deserves to be called a LotpersaI
Rcmedy unless its effects extend 10 each and eyerv
one of the natural drains and this power is not ey.
en- claimed by any medicine except the Indian Pur-
gative. In accordance with these several proper
ties, the operation of the Indian Purgatve is regu-
lated by the state of the patients body. Thus, if
the obstructing matter is lodged in the urinai ex.
cretories 1t will act as diuretc if in the bronch-
ial vessels pulmonary excretores, it will induce
sxpsstoSation If in the cells Of the cellular mem
