Superior to Quinine,

or any thing else yet discovered, as it will cure
the disease not only Immediately but cffcctual-
ly, without any i'll effect or fear of return.
In some cases two pills only have been required
to effect cure. In severer ones as many as
fourteen are measurable number contained
in a single box; and in few cases two boxes
have been used. Such is the confidence of the
proprietor in thes Pills, that he offers in all
ses to refund the money if a cure is not effected
after following the directions, which is what no
other inventor of ague remedies proposes to do.
1t is a well known fact, that as the season
comes around, new remedies are Otlerd to the
public, purporting to cure these dreadful disca-
ses. 1t is also well known that the chief rei-
ancc is upon Peruvian Bark, Salicine, Salts of
NORWOOD, Strychnine, Quinine, Chinoidinc,
Arsenic, or other poisonous articles, which are
prepared by persons who have no more knowl-
edge of medicine than a child. These reme-
dies will do no more than Quinine Peruvian
Bark, and every one who has taken it, knows
that it frequently does nothing more than
check the disease for the time being, and in ma
ny cases it has no effect whatever. +.a
The Omega Pills have been in use for years,
and from every quarter the most flattering tes-
timonials are given of their efficacy and intrin-
sic worth. The proprietor does not pretend to
furnish an article whereby if person keeps
taking it, that he will never have the disease,
but he does say that, if person takes the dis
ease, the Omega Pills will immediately and eff
fectually counterfeit the malaria poison, or the
Inflammation caused by it, an thus restore the
patient to his natural health and strength
All persons travelling through or residing in
Malaria districts should provide themselves
with one or more boxes of these Pills. 1t is al
ways well to have a remedy at hand in case of
need. Remember the NAME hayer One
