Improvement in whatever regards the hap
piness and welfare of our race is constantly
ON the march 10 perfection, and with each
succeeding day ONE new problem is solved,
or some profound secret revealed, having an
important and direct bearing over mans high
est destinies. If we take a retrospective view
over the past twenty years, how IS the mind
struck with wonder! What rapid strides has
science made in every department Of civilized
life /, particularly in thai which relates to the
human system in health aud disease. ow
valuable aud indispensable are the curative
means recently discovered through the agency
of chemistry How does the Imagination
kindle and our admiration glow at the ingehu-
ity, the near approach to the standard OF per-
fection, of the present mel! Through the
elaborate Investigations OF Physiology, or the
science of LIS, and the Pathology of preya-
lent diseases, much valuable or PRACTICAL
knowledge has been gained. In consequence
of becoming acquainted with the organization,
the elements of the various tissues and struc-
lures oftl,e system, remedies have been sought
after and discovered exactly adapted to COM
bine with, neutralize and expel morbifc mat
ter, the cause Of disease, and substitute heal
thy action in its place. The beautiful simpli-
CITY of this mode of treatment is not only sug-
gested by the pathology of diseases, not only
grateful to the sufferer, but perfectly in con-
souance with the operations of Nature, and
satisfactory to the views and reasonings OF
every intelligent, rejecting mind. II IS thus
that S4sD's StnsASARILLA a scientific combi-
nation OF essential principles of the most va
luable vegetable substances, operates upon
the system. The sarsapsrjlla is combined
with the most ~effectual aids, the mosta salutry
productions, the most potent slmples Of the
vegetable kingdom; and its unprecedented
success in The restoration to health Of those
who had long pinned under the most distress
ing chronic maladies, has given il an exalted
character, furnishing as it does evidence of
its own intrinsic value, and recommending it
70 the afflicted in terms the afflicted only can
know. II has long been a most important de-
sideratum in the practice of medicine to
to obtain a remedy similar to this-one that
would act on the liver, stomach and bowels
with all the precision and potency Of mineral
preparations, yet without any of their deleteri-
Gus effects upon the vital powers of the sys-
tenn.
The attention of the reader is respectfully
called to the following certificates. However
great achievements have heretofore been
made by the use Of this invaluable medicine,
vet daily experience shows results still more

selves OF me opportunity of saying it is a
source of constant satisfaction that they are

Of suffering.
NEWARK, N. j., Dec. 13, 1912.
Messrs. Sands Gent-Words cannot ex-
press the gratitude / feel for your treatment
to me, . stranger suffering under one of the
most ,oathsome diseases that nature is capa-
Bile of bearing. The disease with which I
was afflicted commenced with inflammation of
the eyes, in the year 1886, which caused al
most 'otal blindness. For this I was treated
and finally relieved, but the remedies were
such as to cause the development Of a scrof-
ulous affection on my left arm near the elbow.
The pain extended from the shoulder to
the end of my fingers. and for two years my
sufferings were beyond description, tried va
rious remedies and consulted different physi-
clans in New-York and amongst them the late
DIR. 6usha, who told me the disease Of the arm
was caused by the large quantity mercury Ia
ken to cure the inflammation of my eyes.
MY suffcrings continued, the arm enlarged,
umors formed in different places, and in a
few months discharged, making ten running
ulcers at one time, some above and some be-
low the elbow, and the discharge was SO Of
fensive that no person could bear to be in the
room where | was-I then applied to another
distinguished physician who told me amputa-
ton of the arm was the only thing that could
save my life, as it was impossible to cure so
a disease; but as was unwilling to
to it he recommended me to use
Papecea freely, which did without
little benefit. "Fort three years / was
unable 10 raise my hand to my head, to comb
my hair, and the s~crofula now made its APP
pearance on my head, destroying the bone in
places, causing extensive alterations

panied with violent pain, numerous external
