tance with the modern mode of investigation and

the highest standard Of medical education in this
country, and every Incentive and facility to an ar
dent and perseverng cultivation of the principles OF
the science will be afforded, to beget spirit

siion Of the period Of pupiage.

two sessions The first, from the second Monday

voted wholly to full examinations on the subjects

w CHERRY, Sarsaparilla, and other
MEDICINAL PLANTS. The preparer of the
above Srup having witnessed for many years its
extraordinary effects in obstinate coughs, and in
truth, in all breast complaints tending to consump-
ton, has been induced by many Of those who have
experienced its salutary operation, to offer it to the
public under the full conviction that the timely use
of this comp und will avert the fatal termination of
many cases.
The preparer adds to this notice the certificates of
two respectable citizens, who ascrbe their restoration
to health to this preparation.
This is to certify that my daughter received great
benefit from mixture called Compound Sirup of
Wild Cherry and Sarsaparilla, prepared by Mrs. J.
G. White, on 9th street, between and E streets.
Her cough was entirely cured by using the above
Sirup, and take pleasure in recommending it to
the public as sure and speedy remedy for coughs,
however violent or long standing.

Cherry and Sarsaparla. l was taken, two years
ago, with bad cough, and tried great many things
that recommended, and nothing did me any
good. | was advised to try some OF your Compound
Sirup of Wild Cherry and Sarsaparila. My cough
was SO bad that hardly could go along, and after
taking the first bottle was so much better that
was able to attend to my business and now, am
entirely clear of my cough.
