 my great a medical practitioner, and t'e salutary and bcsefoia effects of my medicine stand or fn seek not to deceive the public with an ar ticle of whose component parts they arc ignorant. What do the public know of the poisonous and de- structiye ingredients contained in the various pills and panaceas advertised throughout the Union The Droprietors of such medicines know too well fl the public were aware, that out of every.ten pills they have swallowed, eight of them arc Mercury, their trade was at an end. have anazed most of the pills and other medicines advertised throughout the Umon and found them to contan either co'rosires,6- li'ndte or Caomel. The reason is then obvious why these base imposters will not tell the component parts of their medicines They pretend that they have dis covered the philosophers stone, aud that you may live through countless ages, if you but swaAowt their medicine. l practice no such deception My mcd- cine has stood the test of yearsit is recommended by the most eminent of the medical faculty, and what is of more importance than all l candidy and hon estly confess that my medicine is combination of Sarsapayiila, Liueworf, Plemisy Root, Ligaum Vita, and one or two other ingredients. The only origin aty claim is in my peculinr mode of preparation It is true, it has often been the wonder and amaze ment of my medical brethren, the astonishing performed in that were considered not within the pow. of medical aid. The whole mystery con sisted in my usng the medicine, and this alone to tho exclusion of all others, and of the correct principles upon which diseases ought to be treated. It will no however be a matter of surprise that such wonderful should follow the ase of this medicine, wheI state the principles upon which acted. a.
 The human body consists of solids and fluids Tn, former or long structure Is about fifth. The lat ter or soft part five sixths. Man is linked togethe by number of organs beautifully as to form per feet chain in the animal economy. One link of whic when out of order diseased is sufficient to destre the harmony of the whole. These organs furnish ed with inumerabe blood vessels called arteries an veins, which have common centre The heart fo propeling througl, them the blood nutrtive fluid t all parts of the system, from the heart being furnishes with valves which are all in one direction, the bloo can only flow in a corresponding course. That it i forced by the heart into the arteries, and after moist ening the most minute fbrss, it is received by th veins and brought again to the heart, and perform again tile round of the body, and in succession The use of the blood, is to receive from the alimenta " canal the skin lungs, such matters as IS neccessar for the nourishmen of man, and to convey t to ever part of the body for the purpose ofrepairng its waste and increasing its growth. But if any etlete, poison ous or foreign matter is carried into the blood seyec organs are provided as the hrr, kidneys, skin an lungs through which this poison is discharged irol the blood in the form of pile, urine, precipitation an 7 pulmonary exhalaiion.
