plies, compounded with purely vegetable
substances, being perfectly safe when taxi
en-, and has NEVER been known to fail in
curing the most obstinate case. Worms
can never exist when this remedy il once
used, from the fact that 1t not only des-
tioys them but removes all the slime and
mucus which may remain.
The Tape Worm.
This worm is the most difficult one to
destroy of all that inhabit the human body.
1t grows to an almost indefinite length,
and becoming so coiled and fastened In
the intestines and stomach as to produce
Fits, st. yitus' Dance, &C., which is the
cause of many going to the grave, not bs
lieving that these complaints have their
origin from the tape worm; consequently
they do not use the proper medicines for
their disease. To those who are afflicted
with this awful foe to health, | recommend
the use of my Worm Syrup, and Liver
Pills; the syrup to be taken in doses of two
tablespoons full three times day, then
take from FIVE to eight of my Liver Pills.
TO dislodge and pass the worm. BY strictly
following these directions, the most OBJ
stinate cases of Tape Worm can be speed
lily cured.
Round or Stomach Worm.
This worm is usually found in the small
intestines, and is the worm most common
to children, yet ii is not entirely confined
to them, as adults have frequently been
known to suffer with them. The symp-
toms most prominent while affected with
this worm, are hardness and fullness OF the
belly, Shiny stools, looseness of the bowels,
picking at The nose, blueish streak under
the eyes, &c. If you, or any of your chill
dren have any of the above symptoms,
HOBENSACK'S WORM SYRUP can b.
safely depended upon--by using it you
have certain, safe, and speedy cure; AMI hi
after using il according to the directions

the worms thoroughly eradicated from the
system, you can rest assured there is no
remedy beyond the grave, as for fail. there
