[NSENSIBLE PERSPIRATION.

UyHE day will come when this medicine will te
il pronounced capable of doing more good than
any FIVE medicines before the public. AT present,
it is but partially known; the half has never been
told But when it shall be tested in all the various
departments of sickness and disease; when its
derful virtues shall be developed; its powers
the maladies of men seen and felt, then it will be
acknowledged that .M.dister's .All- Healing Oint-
ment has power to cure more diseases than any five
medicines before the world. This will appear plain
upon moments reflection. There are two prom
inent reasons for this assertion: 8ti3t1
lst That by opening the pores of the skin, it
removes all hindrances to the full and free charge
Of the insensible perspiration, and thus removes
the grand cause of nine.tenths of the diseases in
this world and it is therefore applicable to one
disease as another, to the Liver Complaint, Con-
sumption and Dyspepsia, as the Sick Headache
and Ague in the Face, or to the Asthma, Coughs,
Fevers and Bowel Complaints, as the Quincy, Sore
Throat, Bronchitis and Group, for they are all
caused by checking the Insensble Perspiration, in
other words, IN stalking cold"
I'd. That for almost every disease, there is a
specific remedy; and although there are legion
of them recommended for the cure of the same
particular diseases, yet how seldom is it that one
therefore, Of being under the necessity pf applying
great variety of cures the success in each ol
which is doubtful, the All-Healing Ointment takes
the place of them all; and by its action upon the
skin, throws open the doors for the escape of all
the humors within. To make this appear plain to
all, suppose person is afflicted with Cough, or
Cold, ,or Consumption, or Liver Complaint
He seeks variety of inward remedies, but in no
one does he find relief, unless it is capable ol
forcing off perspiraton, which is but momentary
relief, the pores again close the moment the ef
feet OF the medicine has ceased
1t may be said with truth, that all inward reme-
dies fail of curing these complaints six il not eight
times in ten, the world over; and yet medicine
that will not cure at least half the cases it is applied
to, we call poor remedy.
Now what is the cause of the above complaints?
We answer, checked perspiration, in other wurds,
"catching cold" The skin then, and not the in.
terna organs, is out of order. And we assert that
unless the skin is brought into healthy activity,
and made to eliminate the Insensible Perspiration
freely and fully, hot all the medicines in the world
will save the consumptive from the grave. To
make our words true, let us quote from celebrat-
ed southern doctor, who wrote labored treatise
ON Pulmonary Consumption. He says:-"But let
US return to the consideration of the indications of
cure; it is simply this: the restoration of the In
sensible Persplration. In other words, to excite
natural healthy action of the skin. This is all that
is required for the cure of 999 cases out of every
thousand"
Fevers, also, and nearly every case of inf1ama-
ton of the bowels, or of the stomach or lungs, is
the diract result of checked perspiraton. Besides
these, we may name diseases of the spine and of
the nerves, rheumatism, fever sores; diseases of
the chest, such asthma, ghtness Of breath, palms,
weakness, dyspepsia; also constipation of the bow
els croop, cutaneous eruptions, and all diseases o
the skin; in short, nine-tenths Of the diseases in
our country, are produced by this one thing
checked perspiration. If it is not serious at first
it finally settles upon vital organ, when it is
almost certain to result in death, unless it is re-
moved.
The only advantage the All HeaIing Ointment
has over other remedies, lies in the one thing
he restoration of the Insensible Presprations.--
When this is done, the humors and impurities nev-
er remain to do injury. This will be seen by con-
templating the following facts:
1st That five-eights of all we receive in the
stomach, pass off through the pores of the skin, in
Insensible Precipitation.
I'd. That the skin evacuates more matter than
the lungs, kidneys, and bowels, put together,
Sd. That the skin discharges more matter in
twenty-four hours than the bowels do in Ia days!
and that by severe exercise, man will lose three
four and even five pounds in one hour.
4th. That the Creator pierced the human cuti.
Gle with pores or small openings to the almost IN
credible number of 800 million, making this the
grand outlet ofall the redundant mter of the body
9Th. That through these pores are constantly
exuding the old, filtered and wornout particles of
the blood, the humors of the body, and the waste
ofthe system.
9Th That to stop up these pores "a hours would
cause instant death;
7th That sudden changes of weather and ex.

9Th. That the skin is the medium for evacua.
ting all the humors of the body, we see the pro-
found folly and absurdty ofresortng TO pills. drugs
and other mixtures to cure the great majority Of
diseases produced by checked prespiration.
9th. That until September, 1874, there was no
medicine before the public that had power to re-
store the Insensble Precipitation, by impartng vi
