vNHIS preparation has now stood the ties, of

mended as safe and eifectual medicine for en-
pelling worms from the system. The unexam.
pied success that has attended its administration
In every case where the patient was really aflct-
ed with worms, certainly renders it worthy the at,
tention Of Physicians.
The proprietor has made it point to ascertain
the result of its use in such cases as came within
his knowledge and observaton-and he invaria-
bly, found it to produce the most salu,ary effects
not unfrequenuy after nearly all the ordinary pre-
partitions recommended for worms had been preyi-
ously resorted to without any advantage. This fact
is attested by the certificates and statements of
hundreds respectable persons in ferentparts of
the country-and should induce families always
to keep vial in their possession. 1t is mild in
its operation, and may be administered with per-
fec. safety 10 the most delicate infant. For sale
