THE GREAT DIGESTOR AND WIND
DESTROYER.

TNHE most anti-fatulent Medicine ever known
u in the world, which cures and prevents the
formation of Dyspepsia, Consumption, Disease OF
the Heart, Rheumatic pains, Costiveness, Liver
Complaint, Pains in the Side or in the Small of
the Back, Palpitation Of the Heart, Headache
Sore Throat, Shortness of Breath, Govt Cold,
Choic, and is perfect emmenagogue. This Me-
dicne has been invented more than a score ofyears
ago by the French Doctor ofthe FRENCH MEDICAL
House, l6 south Frederick street, Baltimore, when
he was living in Paris as practising physician
and lecturer. He then made a chemical extraction
of the juice of blossom of certain flowers, which
acts wonderfully on the nervous system and re-
Establishes its own circulation. The DIR. has used
it ever since in the above named Diseases with
great success. Many persons think that the French
Doctor confines his practice solely to Secret Dis
cases. but such is not the case; any disease what
ever will be treated and cured written guaranty
and forfeiture, if desired, with strict honesty-even
those given up by Regular Doctors. Persons at
la distance may consult the French Doctor by let
ter, and have the medicine sent to them. Advice
