~ stituona disease, taint. or corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes yitiatcd weak
and poor. Being in the circulation it pervades
the whole body, and may burst out in disease on
any part of 1t. No organ is free from its attacks
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The
scrofulous taint is variousy caused by mercurial
food. impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depres-
sing vices, and, above all, by the venercaI nfec-
ton. Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the
constitution descending from parents Ito children
unto the third and fourth generation - indeed il
seems TO be the rod of Him who saws. Il will visit
the iniquties of the fathersupon thoir children"
1t effects commence by deposition from the blood
OF corrupt and ucerous matter, hioh in the lungs
liver, and internal organs is termed tuberces, in
the glands, swellings; and on the surface, crup-
tions or sores. This foul corruption, which gen
deTs IN the blood depresses the energies of life so
that scrofulous constitutions not only suffer from
scrofulous complaints but they have far less power
to withstand the attacks of other diseases consc-
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders which,
although not scrofulous in their nature are still
rendered fatal by this taint in the system Most
of the consumption which deceminates the human
family has its origin directly in this scrofulous
tamlnatlon. and many destructive diseases of the
liver kidneys, brain, and indeed of all the organs
arise from or are aggravated by the same cause
One quarter of all our people scrofulous their
persons are invaded by this lurking contamination,
and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse
1t from the system must renovate the blood by
an Alternative and inyi igorate by healthy
food and exercise. Such a medicine we supply in
the most effectual remedy which the medical skin
of our times devise for this every where pre-
valing and fatal maady. 1t is combined from the
most active rcmedials that have been discovered
for the expurgation of this foul disorder from tho
blood, and the rescue of the system from its des-
tructive consequences. Hence it should be employ
ed for the of not only scrofula but also those
other affections which arise from it, such as Erup-
