Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is a. constitutional disease, q corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated
weak, and poor. Being i'll the circulation, it
pervadCS the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one Which IL may
not DESTROY. The scrofulouS faint Is variously
caused by mcrcrial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the vcnercal infection. What
ever be its origin. it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending - from parents TO children
unto the third and fourth generation :" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, g
Will visit the inIquities of the fathers upon
ttSir children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt ulcerous matter, which, In
the lungs, liver and internal organs, is termed
tubercleS; in the glands, swellings; and m
the surface, cruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
Quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
In this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, Of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system We must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such medicine we supply in
