the efficacy of the Sarsaparlln beyond a rea-
sonnblc doubt. Its most extensive and useful
application is to the treatment of secondary
diseases, and shattered state of the system
which sometimes follows the imprudent use
of mercury. There can be no doubt but it is
one of the best medicines now in use, particu-
lnrly when it is mixed with the extract of To-
matocs. 1t is often said that all medicine put
up in this form is recommended to cure all
complaints which flesh is heir to; but it is not
so with this but can recommend with the
utmost confidence, and the experience of 3 or
years, the use of the Sarsaparillo and Toma-

certain remedy for all the complaints arising
from Impurities of the blood, disarrangoment
