DIR. M,LANE,s yERMIFUGE.

or During practice Of more than twenty
years, DR.. MLane had attended innumersble pa
,ients afflicted with every form of worm disease,
and was induced to apply all the energies Of his
mind to the discovery of ycrmifuge, or worm
destroyer, certain ia its effects; the result Of his
iabors is the American Worm Specific. now be-
fore the public, which is perfectly safe, and may
be given alike to children Of the most tender age,
or to the aged adult /; it purges mildly and sub
dues fever, and destroys worms with invariable
success. II is easy of administration, and as j,
does not contain mercury in any folm whatever
no restrictions are necessary with regard to drink
ing cold water, nor is it capable of doing tn,
least injury to the tenderest infant. An incrsdi
bic number Of worms have been expelled by thi,
great vermifuge.

M'I.ane's Celebrated Vermifuge, and take non,
else. All other vcrmifuges, in comparison, ar

petite feeble, the mind lethargic, the nerves I'M
