SEES IN which a permanent cure can be effected
notwithstanding their continued exposure to

were perfected, they were engaged in the Chem

After having been troubled with Fever and
AGuc for nearly a y whole month, and swallowed
lots OF QIininc, an acquaintance of mine re-
commanded nc TO ny n bottle of what is called
the South American Fever aud Ague Rem edv,
and sure enough it worked like a charm. |
took it only one day, and that was the last |

is likely enough, if they will follow my example.
