WORMS. WORMS /! woRMs!!!

OF all diseases to which children are exposed,
none are 10 fatal to them as worms Unfortunately,
children are seldom free from them, and as they
initiate the symptoms of almost every other COM
plant, they often produce alarming effects without
being suspected. Worms are not only cause of
disease themselves but by their irritation aggravate
all other diseases, wandering from part of the
body to another winding themselves into large balls,
and obsrucng the bowels and frequently the throat
causing commissions and too often death The best
remedy ever yet known 10

Dr.. JAYNE'S TONIC vERMIFUGE

which il perfectly SAFE and 60 pleasant that children
will not refuse to take it. It efectually destroys
WORMS; neutralizes acidty sourness of the
stomach, increases appetite, and acts general
and permanent Tonic and is, therefore, exceedingly
beneficial in Intermittent and Remitent Fevers In
digestion, &c, and is certain and permanent cure
for FEVER and AGUE.
1t not only destroys Worms and invgorates the
whole system but it dissolves and carries off the
perabundant slime mucous so prevalent in the
stomach and bowels of children, more especially OF
those in bad health. This mucous forms the bed or
nest in which worms produce their young and by
removing tit is impossible for worms to remain in
the body.
1t is harmless in its effects on the system, and the
health of the patient ia always improved by its use,
even when no Worms are discovered Numerous
certificates Of its usefulness have been received,
which the proprietor does not consider necessary to
publish yet to give the reader idea of its vermi-
fuge powers he will mention few cases He gave
It to his little nephew not four years old, and in
few days he discharged upwards of ninety large
worms. He also gave it to his daughter then about
three years old, when it brought away thirty
in one night.
Josiah Thompson near Salem, N. j., administered
this Vermifuge to child between two and three
years Old and says that in few days she discharged
one hundred and twenty-seven large Worms
Mr.. Joseph A. Lents of the Penn Township Sa-
wings Institution, IN this city, gave it to one Of his
children and says that after the sixth dose it brought
away opSue ''oihis d. once, I'VE and SIX inches
long.
Mr. Ferdinand Woodruff used two bottles of this
Vermlfuge for DYSPEPSIA, and in the course of
two weeks discharged upwards OF thirty pieces of
TAPE WORM, and was thereby perfectly cured
Another gentleman Of this city had it administered
to his little daughter, about three years DID, when
she had number Of discharges from her bowels,
composed entirely of little white thread worms. He
says, "they came away from her, not only by hun
dreds, but may truly say by thousands, separately
