THIS preparation is particularly recommended to
l. persons of weak habit, and to such as reside in
low situations, where the nervous system is in gen.
era less relaxed. The addition of certain in
gradients has so completely disguised the taste of
the bark, to render this efcacious remedy, most
palaable cordial; thus peculiarly adapting it to con-
quer that repugnance which most persons expert
ence after taking for some time bitter poons, it
combines the greatest efficacy with highly agree
able flavor. As preventive Of the ague it has
superseded the of all other remedies, in such
