The proofs Of It's efficacy are so numerous, so
we'll authenticated, and Of such peculiar oharac-
ter, that sufferers cannot reasonably hesitate to re-
ceiye the prohered aid.
The Peruvian Syrup does not profess to be a
cSrsnll, but It's range Is extensive, because many
diseases, apparenfly unlike, are intimately re
lated, and, proceeding from one cause, may be
cured by one remedy.
The class OF diseases for which the Syrup pro-
vdes a cure, is precisely that which has so often
ba He'd the highest order Of medical skill. The
facts are tangible, the witnesses accessible and
the safety and efficacy Of the Syrup incontrovert-
ible.

the Peruvian Syrup, with reference to the number
and kind Of active substances contained In Ii, and

They were full when he came in
Just twelve months ago) with grain
seed Of happiness and paip,
That he scattered fosud like rain!

all know can as easily be had for a worthless
