Ague Cure,

Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Aguc,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious FeveFs, indeed
for the whole class Of diseases Origi-
mating In hillary arrangement, caused
BY the Malaria Of miasmatic couatrieS.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities OF the American people than a sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer. with perfect
certainty that il viii 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 in the
communities where il prevails. Prevention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This "CuRE" expels
the miasmatic poison Of FEVER AND AoUs
from the system and prevents the develop

proach Of its premonitory symptomA OIt b

body; and in bilious districts, where FEvRR
AND AsUB prevails, every body should have Il
and use II freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price viii place II within the
reach Of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and cer-
tain cure Of Intermittents is, that Il 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 miasmatic poison. A great variety Of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness. Toothache, Earache, CatarTh, 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
ieal. This "CURB" expels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-

public no longer hesitate what antdote to employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections Of tho

While many inferior remedies thrust upon tho

has gained friends BY every trial, conferred benefits
