Ague Cure,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF

FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OFt
intermittent Fever, or Fever and Aguc,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Billions
Headache, and Billions Fcvers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases CriSi-
mating i'm hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria OF miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities of the American people than a sure
and safe cure for Fever and Agae. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect
certainty that it viii eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded On proGf, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam
tity. > - II
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service IN the
communities where it prevails. : P,eue,ltios is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distenper. This 'CurE = expeis
the miasnatic poison of FEVER AND AGuE
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first APP
proach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t is
not only the best remedy ever yet discover
for this class of complaints but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
a dollar brings it within the reach of every
body; and in bilious districts. where FEVER
AND AGuE prevails, every body should have ii
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within the
reach of all-the poor as well as the rich. 4
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and ccr-
tain cure of Intermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it PRO
duces no quinisn or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease. r.- fafif = :.
Fever and Agucis not alone the consequence
of the miasnatic poison. 4 great variety of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothachc, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangement Of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become Period
ical. This "CURE" expcls the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them al
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection TO imnli-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
fiction, that will be excreted from tic systln.
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even mere
valuable for protection than cure, and few Will
ever suffer ficm Intcr1nittents, if they avail
themselves Of the protection this remedy al
-fortls.

SENSIBLE ADVICE TO THE Sick
The most intelligent and observing
physicians will be unanimous in saying
that sickly imaginations, or disordered
minds, are more difficult to cure than
diseased bodies, and that the real OBJ
stacle to cure of the latter lies in the
obstinacy of the former. Some people
but slightly diseased in body, make
themselves helpless by the operation
of the imagination, and physicians find
it impossible to cure the slight malady,
until something has been done for the
mind. Hence the advice often given
to invalids to travel, whereby their
minds can be diverted from the body
and the ills to which the imagination
gives rise. We find in the papers the
following bit of advice to invalids, COM
ing from Charles Lamb, which will be
generally regarded as sensible: "Yo on
are too apprehensive of your complaint.
The best way in these eases is to keep
yourselves as ignorant as the world was
before Galen, of the entire construc-
ton of the animal man; not to be
conscious of the midriff; to hold kid
neys to be an agreeable fiction; to ac-
count the circulation of the blood an
idle within of Harvey's; to acknowledge
no mechanism not visible. For once
fix the seat of your disorder and your
fancies flux into it like bad humors.
Above all, take exercise, and avoid
tampering with the hard terms of art
Desks are not deadly. 1t is the mind
and not the limbs, that taints by long
sitting. Think of the patience of the
tailors; think how long the lord chan
celor sits; think of the brooding hen."
