EVERY KIND OF HUMOR.

mon pimple.
He has tried it in over 100 cases, and nevar
failed except in two cases, (both thunder humor.

A benefit is always experienced from the FIRST
ONNA OAA q liz SAHO II u when tho
above quantity is taken.
t Reader, L peddled over a thousand bottles of
this In the vicinity of Boston. know the effect
OF it i'll every case. So sure as water will extin
gulsh fire, so sure will this cure humor. / never
e sold a bottle of it but that sold another: after a
trial 1t always speaks for itself. There are tYothinog
about this herb that appears to me surprising FIRST
that 1t grows In our pastures, in some places ouite
~ plentiful, and yet its value has never been
= known until l discovered it in lS46-second. tbot
it should cure all kinds of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden riss
T. and great popularity of the discovery, 1 will stat
y that in April, 1853, 1 peddled it, and sold about
SIX bottles per day-inA April, 1854, 1 sold over on,
~ thousand bottles per day of it.
Some OF the wholesale Druggists who have bee,
: IN business twenty and thirty years, say that moth
ing in the annals of patent medicines was ave
Dr. like it. There is a universal praise of il from n
raj quarters.
70 In my own practice I always kept it strictly fo
humors-but since its introduction as a pener,
family medicine, great and wonderful virtues hay
been found in it that | never suspected.
See Several cases 0 epileptic fts-a disease whic
was always considered incurable, have been cure
by a few bottles. O, what a mercy if it will pro,
NJ ~effectual in all cases of that awful malady-the
are but few who have seen more of it than | hay
l know of several cases of Dropsy, all of the
HE aged people, cured by it. For the various diseas
ma of the Liver, Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthm
Fever and Ague, Pain in the Side, Diseases of t
ling Spiu1' ~ paiuouaiiy mulseases ! me hldhe
medicine ever known.
