Ague Cure,
FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF

FOR THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Asue,
Remiftent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases orisi.
mating in biiicry arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities of the American people than 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 baleful distemper. This "CuRB" expels
the miasmatic 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
no. 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 Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AoUE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and projection.
1t is hoped this price will 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-
dnces 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 Ague is 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 Cure" 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 in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
lection. that win 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 Internittents, if they avail
themselves Of the protection this remedy If.

Patients in advanced stages of the

So wide is the field Of its usefulness and so nu-

every section of country abounds in persons pub

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 antidote 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 can never forget, and pro-
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.

Hard Times and Papers.

Two men have actually told us. in the
past week, that the times were TOO hard for
them to take paper this year. One o'
them was smoking cigar, and The other
had at least ten cents work Of tobacco in his
hand, from which he was pulling guild
We guess from other circumstances, easier
understood than explained, that they both
had some "rifle whiskey" in their stom-
ach,. We agree with them, and pity their
families: They cannot afford to take pa
per, buy tobacco and whiskey, bread, meat,
cothes-but, as they use all the tobacco and
whiskey themselves, could they not dispense
with one of these Injuries, take paper and
magazine for their families, and also save
from ten to fifteen dollars, in cash? We
submit the question for consideration.
We would invite the attention Of our read
ers 10 the new "AGuE CURE" advertised in
our columns. 1t is from such quarter as
will give the public confidence in its effica
CIV, and we have learned from reliable sour
ces, that its virtues will sustain their fulles
expectations. Citizens Of the west canno
fail to appreciate the paramount value it
them, Of safe and certain remedy for this
affecting distemper without either Quin'nt
or minerals, and consequently without in

more than ordinary satisfaction in proclaim
ing this remedy, because we are convinced
it will answer q crying want among us, and
serve to relieve great amount OF suffer
