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 Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect
certainty that it win 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 it prevails. Prevention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks of
this balefhl distemper. This "CuRE" expels
the miasmatic poison Of FEVER AND AduE
from the system and prevents the develop
ment Of the disease, if taken on the first ap-
proach of its premonitory 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
dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AsuE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price viii place it 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 GER
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 Us healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Agneis 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, 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 "CURB" expels the poison from
the blood and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing i'm the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the In
lection, that will be excreted from the system,
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cure and few will
ever suffer from Intermittents, if they avail
themselves of the protection this remedy af-
fords.

the hnickerbocker will publish, far its inves-
LEGATIONS extend, the names Of the manufacturers
and dealers guilty of this insidioas crime against

So wide Is the field of its usefulness and SO nu-

every section of country abounds in persons pub
icly known, who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every
other medicine of its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, the
public no longer hesitate what antidotc TO employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections Of the
pulmonary organs that incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits
on the afflicted they never forget, and pro-
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.
