g. WAIM'S VERMIFUGE-THE MOST USE
y Full FAMILY MEDICINE EVER OFFERED TO
THE PUBLIC.
This well known anudyseneric and worm medicine
has proved successful these twelve years past and is
universally acknowledged by all who have tried IT, to
he far superior any other medicine employed in
the diseases for which it is recommended. IL is per
fectly safe, and no child will refuse to take it.
Worms being especially apt TO intest persons Of de-
btated digestive organs and enacated constitutions
much mischief is often done by the ordinary worm
medicines which generally consist of the strongest puT
gatives calomel-lhat destroyer of the constitution
bitters pink root, spirits OF turpentne, wormseed Oil
&C.. Sc. Articles of this kind may destroy worms but
they debate the stomach, and often materially injure
the general health, without removing the cause
Swaim's VeImifuge has the peculiar advantage of re
moving the of worms by giving vgor and healthy
action TO the stomach, BOWELS and organs OF dseshon
thereby relieving measles, Group, hopping cough &c
This medicine, by invigoahng The Internal functions
Strengthening the organs of dgeston and removing The
primary which creates morbid secret0ns, will
leve Bowel Complaints ChOlc, Dysentery, Dyspepsia,
and the whole tram of hillary affections, Sick Headach
Acdiy Of the Stomach, Foul Breath, Bleeding Piles,
sc. It is antdote in the early stages Of fever and
cholera morDus. As general family medicine, il islands
unvalled, il is applicable most of the diseases
which children subject. Swaim's Vermifuge will
be found of utility persons who occasionally
indulge in the conUvaliiy of the table; dose taken
before dinner will anticipate the effects of acdity of the
stomach, not untfequenty produced by wine. In the
neglect Of this, however, dose III the morning, the
following morning. will, in most instances restore the
tone OF the stomach.
Families resident in the country and isolated in a
measure from medical advce-tTavellers jOuneying TO
the far west hound distant pOrs-seminaries and
all Fubc institutions and charitable associations, will
find this remedy, constantly at hand of great utility.
