perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate

thai remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the public, as be-
ing better than using Quinine,--nol knowing
presume that The remedy they needed TO
escape taking Quinine, contained The DRUG
ITSELF!
This remedy, (known as "Smith's Tonic,n)
would invariably BREAK an ague, bu: it did
moi CURE it, and il would often return with
renewed vigor. The one circumstance
deemed in your favor, il could institute a
lest comparison between il and your CURE.
The following is the result:
Three persons took your "Cure," all of
which were cases Of "Quolidian lniermit-
tent Fever" OF many weeks standing. They
had Tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa.
sionally misslns chill, but il was, (as IN all
such cases. slowly wearing them out and

maadies. did succeed in effecling a radi-
cal cure OF all three of these cases with your
remedy, and they have ntl had chill since.
In all three OF these cases the Smiths Ton.
ic''shad been used, aud would, as before sta
ted, break the chilli but after period or two
had elapsed il would return.
