~Consumptives, or those whose lungs are affected
slightly, should take this Syrup without delav, by
which they may prevent the fixing of that dire dis
ease fully and firmly. How important then, TO
avoid it, Never live a day with a cough when this
Syrup can be had, and you are nearly certain,
with proper care, to avoid destruction by Consume
ton.
DR.. SWAYNE'S COMPOUND SYRUP OF
WILD CHERRY was the first prepaI alton from
that valuable tree which was ever introduced to the
public, and ample proof is afforded of its success
by the country being flooded with tBalsams.'
8 Candies" and " Mixtures" of Wild Cherry, not
one of which is prepared by a regular phi sician,
although they have assumed the names of respecta-
bic physicians to give currency to their sc Nos
truns.'" And there is an "Impostor' who has
come out within a few days, with COMPOUND s yr-
up of Wild Cherry, clinging still closer TO tine origi
nal name. that persons might be deceived if they
did not bear in mind the name Of DR.. SWAYNE
Therefore the public should be on their guard, and
not have a worthless mixture palmcd upon them
for the original and genuine preparation, which is
only prepared by DR.. SWAYNE, N. w. Corner of
Eighth aud Race streets, PHILADELPHIA
GJ-The public are requested to remember that it
IS DR.. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry,
that has and is repeatedly performing such mirac-
ulous cures of diseases which have bahled the skill
of the Profession, and set at defiance the whole cat
alogue of Patent Medicines, which are daily pufFed
through the organs of the press. Therefore ask for
DIR. Swayne's Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry,
and purchase none other.

and speedy remedy ever discovered for the cure of
the Secret Diseases.
In Europe this medicine has long enjoyed the
reputation of curing all these troublesome COM
plants, subject to man, and in this country no in
stance of its failure has ever been known wherever
it has been introduced, provided the patient strict
ly adhere to the directions given.
1t possesses however what may be Justly called a
specific power in most constitutions, especially
when administered in the early and acute form Of
the disease 1t moderates the i%nfamatory symp-
toms in a shorter time, and with more certainty
than the majority of the nauseating nostrums now
offered to the public.
A preparation, therefore like the present one and
possessing such medical properties, must. when its
virtues are found out, prove the great dosideratum
sought for, and from the general success attending
its use, must command a large and extensive cir
culation. Prepared and sold only by
