THE TRUTH SOMETIMES NOT FOUND OUT
UNTIL TOO LITE.
OUCH is often the case in regard to persons taking
y medicine. They are induced by plausible rea-
soning false representation and doctrines, to employ
medicines that, so far from being adapted TO their
disease or sickness, absolutely increase the symp-
toms, destroy the constitution, rack the whole
system, and bring on gradual decline, terminating
in death previous to the fatal termination, however,
(bt unfortunately too late) the truth is found out
that the pills. mixtures, &C. they have been taking
were composed of the most powerful and dangerous
Ingredients prepared too by persons knowing nothing
of disease or the nature OF the medicines they recon-
mend depending altogether upon the general doc
trine of such mposters," that their medicines will

cessary to take some medicine for purifying the blood
and cleansing the bowels, to take nothing but DR..

and without restraint from occupation or usuai course

published, various times, of their efficacy. More
than 100000 boxes have been sold in Philadelphia IN
twelve months. These facts go to prove their value
or so many never would be sold in so short time

ever, arises in part from the fact that the manufac.
turer of them DR. Leidy) is we'll known at home as
regular physician and apothecary, knowing the true

~ IT CANNOT BE DENIED
L OR truth is mighty, that Dr. Leidy's SARSAPA-
RILLA is the purest, strongest, and most eflcacious
of any other preparation of Sarsaparla that is made
II is warranted TO be stronger than six bottles Of
most Others stronger than four of some and stronger
than three Of the strongest prepared by any other in
the United States.
Dr. Le,dy's Sarsaparilla is recommended by all
respectable physicians in preference to any other.
All who have ever used it have derived more benefit
from one bottle than three to ten of others; and
those who after having used other preparations with
out benefit, will use DIR. Leidys, will soon be con-
vinced as thousands have already been) of the fore
going assertion
The apparatus with which DR.. Leidy's extracts,
used in his preparation of Sarsaparilla prepared
the only one in the United States imported by Dr.
Ieidy himself from the celebrated house of Pelleer
& Caventou in Paris, at great expense, and is
pable of extracting the medicinal virtues Of Sarsa
parilIa and other roots eectually than by any
other process.
| AS several hundred certificates of remarkable
| cures. and recommendations from cergymen and
MUSICIANS have been from time to time published IN
different papers, it only thought necessary to keep
the public acquainted as to where Dr. Leidy's Sar-
saparilIa can be be obtained genuine, namely, at Dr
