While it is fraud on the public to pretend that any

dant proof that the CHERRY PICTORIAL does not only

As time makes these facts W ider and better known,
this medicine has gradually become the best reliance

peasant, to the palaces OF European Kings Through
this entire country, in every State, city, and n-

Germany, where the medical sciences have reached
their highest perfection, CHERRY PEcTonAL is intro

Aims Houses, Public Institutions, and in domestic prac
ce, the surest remedy their attending PLY scians
can employ for the more dangerous affections OF tho

We have endeavored here TO furnish the community
with medicine Of such intrinsic superiority and worth
as should commend itself to their confdence-a remedy
at safe, speedy and eifectua, which this has by
repeated and countless trials proved itself TO be- and
