and all diseases caused by it disappears al
once. Rhodes Fever and Aeue Cure is this
Aniidole 10 Malaria, and moreover it is
perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate
of the celebrated chemist, ]. r. Chiffon, of
New York, TO this effect, is attached 10 every
bottle; therefore if ii does no good it can do
no harm.
This is more than can be said of Quinine,
Arsenic, or any tonic in existence, as their
use is runous 10 the constitution and brings
OH DUMB AGUE, which never allows per-
son 10 feel perfectly well for single moment.
In illustration of these truths annex some
extracts from letter just received from
Physician:
Gcorgetoion, Ohio, March II, $50.
Jas. A. RHODES, Esq.-Dear Sir: Yours OF
I'd inst. is al hand. The Cure arrived late
last year and the difficulty in getting any one
10 try il was greatly increased from The fact
that remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the public, as be-
ing better than using Qunine mot knowing
presume that The remedy they needed 10
escape taking Quinine, contained The DRUG
ITSELF!
This remedy, (known as "Smi,h's Tonic,n)
would invariably BREAK an ague, bu: it did
not CURE it, and il would often return with
| renewed vigor. The one circumstance
deemed in your hvor, if could institute a
test comparison between it and your CURE.
The following is the result:
Three persons totk your "Cure," all of
which were cases Oh "Quolidian Inermit-
tent Fever" of many Weeks standing. They
had tried Quinine, and 0ther remedies, occa-
sionally missing chill, but it was, Gas in all
such cases,y slowly wearing them out, and
laying the foundation of other and severer
malades. did succeed in effectug a rad-
cal cure o.. all ,hres o1these cases with your
remedy, and they havs not bad chill SINCE
ln all three OF these csses the "Smith's Tom
ic" had been used, abd would, as before sta
! ted, break the chill bat after period or two
had elapsed il woudk dkeiuIn. - T.. j.. y,
| think there will bs no difficulty now in
giving TO your ''Cure''the vantage ground Of
any oiher remedy now in use here. &c. &c.
