There i hardly a physician who has not had
occasion to observe with pain, the phagcdenie
variety of herpes; and in spite of all the remedies
he could bring against this cruel disease, was
compelled 10 acknowledge their neilicacy and
allow the monster to corodc and destroy the nose,
checks, lips, cyclids, ears and tCmplcs-parts for
which this malady generally affects preference.
But in this extract will he found perfect remedy
in all such cases, and where the disease has not
produced a very great arrangement Of structure,
it will even yield to this remedy III u very short
time.
q. W. Merchant taking advantage of these
facts, has adopted an improved process for cNtraC-
ting the medical virtues from the actual ingrcdi-
onts of this compound fluid extract, which are
nine in number, without heat; that is to say
neither dccoctlon infusion or moceratlon are made
use of; nor Is the temperature OF the menstrum
used, allowed to exceed so deg. Fab. until every
particle of active principle is extracted, leaving
taslcIcss inert mass behind; thcrcls attaining the
whole of the soluble active principle in highly
concentrated state, leaving out the tccua, woody
fibre, etc, which cncumbcrs the extract obtained
by decoction.
The proprietor, therefore, has not only the sat
isfaction of assuring the medical faculty and the
public that this remedy Is prepared according to
strict chemical and pharmaceutical rules, hut that
he has also united some of the oilicinalc valun-
bic and active Vegetables, all of the choicest sccc
ton, which materially enhance lis value in tho
treatment of the diseases above mentioned. He
is therefore induced to offer this fluid extract TO
ply scians and others under the fullest assurance
of its superiority over that in common use.
Physicians will find great advantage in the use
of this extract, and great relief from the per
plcXitics attendant upon the treatment of those
obstinate cases which bid defiance to every rem
cdy their confidence prompts them to prescribe
more especially as having the patient under their
immediate care, they will prescribe such dict
and regimen as in their Judgment the case would
seem to indcatc--thcrchy giving the extract It's
full influence.
