rad welfare Of our race is constantly on the march
to perfection, and with each succeeding day some
new problem is solved, profound secret re-
vealed having important and direct bearing
over mans highest destinies. II we take retro
Hpectve view over the past twenty years how is
the mind struck with wonderi What rapid strides
has science made in every department of civilized
life particularly in that which relates to the
knowledge of the human system in health and dis
ease. How valuable and indispensable are the Gu
rative means recently discovered through the apen-
cy ofchemistry How does the imagination kindle
and our admiration glow at the ingenuity, the near
approach to the standard perfection of the present
time Through the elaborate investigations OF
Physiology, or the science of LIFE, and the Pathol
ogy Of prevalent Diseases much valuable practical
knowledge has been gained. In consequence of
becoming acquainted with the organization the ele
ments of the various tissues and structure of the
system, remedies have been sought after and dis
covered exactly adapted TO combine with, neutral-
ize and expel norbfc matter, the cause Of disease
and substitute healthy action in its place The
beautiful simplicity of this mode of treatment is not
only suggested by the pathology of diseases, not
only grateful to the sufferer, but perfectly in con-
sonance with the operations of Nature, and salts
factory to the views and reasonngs of every intel
ligent, rejecting mind. II is thus that SANDS
SARsAPARrLLA, scientific combination Of essential
principles of the most valuable vegetable substances,
operates upon the system. The Sarsaparilla is
combined with the most efectual aids, the most
salutary productions, the most potent simpes of the
vegetable Kingdom and its unprecedented success
in the restoration to those who had long pinned un-
der the most distressing chronic maladies, has Civ
en- 1t an exalted character furnishing it does
idence of its own intrinsic value, and recommending
1t to the afflicted in terms the afflicted only
know. 1t has long been most important desidera-
tum ia the practice of medicine to obtain a remedy
similar to this-une that would act on the liver,
stomach and bowels with all the decision and poten-
cy Of mineral preparations yet without any of their
deleterious effects upon the vital powers of the
system.
The attention of the reader is respectfully called to
the following certificates. However great achieve
nents have heretofore been made by the of this
invaluable medicine, yet daily experience shows re-
suits still more remarkable. The proprietors here
await themselves of the opportunity of wing il is
source of constant satisfaction that they are made
the means of relieving such an amount of suffer-
ing.

lNessrs. Sands: Gent.-Words cannot express the
gratitude feel for your treatment TO me- a stranger
suffering under one of the most loathsome diseases
that nature is capable of bearing. The disease
with which was afflicted commenced with inflam-
nation of the eyes, in the year 1886, which caused
almost total blindness. For this treated and
finally relieved, but the remedies such as to
the developement of a scrofulous objection on
my left arm near the elbow.
"The pain extended from the shoulder to the
end of my fingers, and for two years my snfferings
were beyond description. tried various remedies
and consulted different Physicians in New York,
and amongst them the late DIR. Bushe, who told me
the disease of the arm was caused by the large
quantity ofmercury taken to cure the inflammation
of my eyes.
My sufferings continued, the arm enlarged, tu-
nofs formed in different places, and in few months
discharged, making ten running ulcers at one time
some above and some below the elbow, and the dis
charge offensive that person could bear 10

my head or comb my hair, and the scrofula now
made its appearance on my head, destroying the
bone in different places, causing extensive ulcera-

me truly miserable. Such, gentlemen, had beer
