FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Asuc,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Billions
Headache, and Billions Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases ori.i-
mating in hillary arrangement, canse.:
by the Malaria of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called fer by the
necessities of the American people than sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
We are now enabled to offer, with a perfcci
certainty that it will eradicate the disease
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam
tity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service III the
communities where it prevails. Ptrcent;'a IS
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in viulent attacks Of
this baleful distcmper. This "CURE" expcls;
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGuE
from the system and prevents the develop
mcnt of the disease, if taken on the first APP
proach of its prenonitory symptoms. 1t is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class Of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
a dollar brings it within the reach CT every
BODY; and in bilious districts, where FEvER
AND AGuE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within thc
reach of all-thc poor as well as the rich. a
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 quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
of the lniaSmatic poison. A great variety of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout, Headache.
Blindness. Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Cole.
Paralysis, and Derangement Of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, OF become period
ical. This CUGE" cxpels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them ali
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to imni-
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 excretcd from tie system.
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even moro
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from IntcIinittcnts, if they avail
themselves of the protection this remedy az
