Scro1u4a, or Kings Evil,

Is Il constitutional disease, corruption, of the blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor Being ill the circulation, it Hcrvades 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 it may not destroy. The s"rofuous taint is variously caused by merc,tlial disease, low living, disouIcred or unhealthy food. impure air, filth, and filthy habits, tho depressing vices, and, above all, by the reneical infection. Whatever be its origin, ir is hereditary in the constitution, descending " from parents to children unto the third and fourth guncraton;" indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, will visit the ini9uities of t'ie f'hcrs upon their children"
 lis effects commence by dcrosition from the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and inerna orgaEs. is termed turrrlcs; in the glands, swelIings; and on the surface, e!uptions sores. This foul corrur- ton, which gcnders in tie i;ood dcpresses tle energies of life. SO that scrotisiols constitutions not only suffer from srrofl'ous complaints, but they have far less power to withstand the ks of other diseases: consequently, vast numbers perish by disorders whirh, although not scrotu- lous in their nature arc still rcrtered fatal by this taint in the system. Most of the consump- ton which dccmatcs the human family has its origin directly n this scroiu.olis contamination and many destructive diseases of the livcr kid neys, brain, and, indeed of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by tho same cause.
 One quarter of all our people are scrouous; their persons are invaded by this lurking nfuc- ton, and their health is undermined hv it. To cleanse 1t from the system we must rcroYatc the blood by al altcrativc mcdici?lc ard iIyi.orato it by hei!!v food and exercise. Such a medi- cine we supply ill

It is combined from the most active rcmcslia.s that have been discovered for the cxpurgaton of this f,ul disor- der from tho blood, and the rescue of the sys- tenn from its destructive consequences. Hence it should be employed for the cure of rot on!y scrofula, but also those other affections which arise from it, such as ERUpTIvE and SKIN Dis EASES, ST.
