medicine Of such EFFICACY and POWER as
has been hitherto unknown in the art OF healing
Its mode Of curing is first 10 neurazo all putrefac

pulson of the same through the proper outlets,
provided by nature for that purpose consequently
its action is not confined to the bowels, although
it is greatest there, but extends to the nostrils,
throat salival glands, lungs, shin and kidneys.
Each of the above drains is intended by nature
for the discharge of an eXcretion impurity pecu
liar to 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 tho patient
by trampling on the laws OF nature in bringing all
the different kinds of excreory matter through one
channel ; hence the evil of attempting to cure all
diseases by course of sweating or vomiting, or
physicing, or any other method which opens only
one class of eXcretories.
No medicine deserves to be called UaioerSaL
Remedy unless its effects extend to each and every
one of tho ma tural drains and this power is not
en- claimed by any medicine except the Indian Pur.

lated by the state of the patients body, Thus, if
the obstructng matter is lodged in tho urinal OK.
cretories will act diuretic il in the bronch

expectoration; if in the cells of the cellular mem
brane excretores of the skin, gentle and etlec
tuul perspiration will be kept up and under every
combination of circums tances, it will act more or
less Il cathartic Here it is proper TO remark,
that although the purgative always induces an m

BILE of overcoming the most obstinate cases OF
cosveness, it does not raise "hurricano" in the
bowels, nor waste the healthy juices by overactlon
Its effects extend 10 every part OF the system, and
for that reason not liable to oTeractloh IN any
part.
No disease ever ever will be cured unless
by medicines which produce the ELECTS above mon
less perfect in proportion to its power of acting
the different eXcretories and the Indian system
claims pre-emineuce only because it possesses the
power of opening and keeping open all the natural
drains.
The inestimNbIe value of a medicine which
will act on all tho excretories at one and the same
time. is more apparent when reflect that the hu
man body is n complicated machine, consisting Of
numberlcss different and distinct members, all of
which are so intimately connected, and mutually
I DEPENDANT that no one part can be injured without

cry other part therefore, one part OF the body
cannot be diseased, and another part healthy =
| neither can one part be cured while another part
remains diseased. Disease begins In the blood, and
as the blood flows to every part Of the system, eve
ny part of tho system must become more or less dis
ed no disease is cured unless the cause is removed
and TO remove the cause we must restore the blood
to healthy state, and if the blood is made healthy
| every part Of the body mast be the sumo.
We have illustrated the natural or Indian
system Of practice, and the more il is investigated

truth, we have only to reflect that IL was taught by
NATURE, and therefore mast be tr~e When the
body stands in need of nourishmeut we are impcl-

are impeed by instinct to medicine ; and there
cannot be doubt that if we lived in IA state of ma

first learned in the woods, and to this day the best

Having already proved that the Indian PurgaVe
acts in direct accordance with the LAWS OF MA
| TURE, and is therefore equal to the of trny
durable disease, we will now enumerato few OF
the complaints for which it has been tried and
found certain among the Indians and white
settlers of the Far West These are intermittent
Remtlent, Nervous, inflammation Of this Brain, OF
the Throat, Of the Stomach, Of the Lungs, OF Tue
Liver, of the lntestines, the Kidneys, aud the jad
der; Rheumatism, both Acute and Chronic, spit
ting and Vomiting of Blood, Diarrhna, Dysentery
and Coles; Syncope, Apoplexy, and Paralysis
Dyspepsia, and IIypochondriasis; Tetanus, Epep
sy Hooping- Cough, Asthma and Palpilation OF the
heart, Incipient Consumption, and Marasmus; DrGp'
sy ofthe Head, the Chest, the Abdomen and mo
Limbs; scroiiila, Scurvy' and oyphl,lS; p'oH rag
cele and Cancer, Gravel and Strangury, Loss o! Hp
petite, Costvenoss, Sick headache, ii",!'cntl
pains in the Stomach, pains in the Back and Sde
and other complaints of the Kidneys and Liver
Ulcers and of every description; Ilysterlcks;
Weak Nerves and Lowncss of Spirits, as well as
Leucorrhoea, Menorrhoea, Suppression, and other
delicate female complaints. Besides the above, 1t
has been found invaluable in the diseases of in
fants, SO that i'll the new settlements of the Far
West, where the inhabitants keep it constantly be-
side them, the children brought up in good
health without any assistance from Medical men,
To sum up the character OF the Indian Purgatve III
few words it is only necessary to state, that it pos
sed by medicine, viz. the power of opening and
keeping open all the natural drains ofthe body; y
sesses every curative property that can be possess
therefore, if persevered with reasonable timo
will most eectually assist nature to cure every va
riety ofdisease.
