into popular favor. We need hardly repeat the
fact. that this is pure, unadulteIated Natural
Medicine, and is put up as il flows from the boz
som ofthe earth, without admixtures ofany kind
In these days Of Nostrum vending, we do no
wonder at the incredulity evinced by the COM
munity, upon the introduction of n new remedy,
but that incTedulity shall not suppress a medi-
cine, whose powerful influence has mitigated aIcA
cured many diseases incidental to our race ;were
we to withhold remedy like this from public
notice, we should consider ourselves as guilty of
keeping back something that was intended tore
lieve much human suffering, and dispeli the gloom
and PAIN OF many n one whose system has been
racked and tortured by the fell engines of dis
ease. Nay, do not wonder, gentle reader, and
join with Others in the cy, thatit cures too many
diseases; for if you i'll take the trouble to Ieok
over the list of diseases for which it is recon-
mended, You will find that they are diseases aG-
