A compound remedy, in which we bovo !.
bored to produce the most effectual altpra,;So
that can be made. 1t is concentrates ex,sa..
of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with 80
substances of still greater Alternative nower -
to afford an effective antidote for the disoasas
Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure 1t is beIe~"SS
that such a remedy is wanted by those NV
suffer from Strumous complaints, and tbo+ o,'
which will accomplish their cure mnst nro,.a
of immense service to this large class of o,,r
afflicted fellow -citizens How completely tb;a
compound viii do it has been proven by cxnor4
ment on many of the worst cases to be fo,,nd
OF the following complaints:
ScRoFULA AND ScRoFULoUs COMPLAINTS
ERUPTToNs AND ERUrTIvE DISEASES. U1crpS'
PMPLEs, BLoTcHEs, TuMoRs, SALT RUrry
SCALD HEAD, SYPlILs AND SYPHILTIc Ar
FEcrIoNs, MEKcURIAL DISEASE, DRopsY, Mr.
RAIG1A OR TIC DouLoUREUx, DEBILITY. Dys.
PEPsIA AND INDIGESTION, ERYsIpELAs, Rosr
OR ST. ANTuoNYs FIRE, and indeed the wboIn
class of complaints arising from IMpuRtry oS
TIE BLOOD.
This compound will be found great nro-
moter of health, when taken in the spring to
eXpel the foul humors which foster in tbo
blood at that season of the wear. BY the t;moO
ly expulsion of them many ranking disorders
are nippcd in the bud. Multitudes can bv
the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance of foul cruptions and ulcerons
sores, through which the system will strive to
nd itself of corruptions. if not assisted to do
this through the natural channels of the body
by an Alternative medicine. Cleanse out the
vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities
bursting through the skin III pimples, eruptions
or sores; cleanse it when you find it is oh
structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it
whenever it is FOUL and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder
IS felt, people enjoy better health, and live
longer, for cleansing the blood. Keen the
blood healthy, and all is well; but with this
pabulum of life disordercd, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery Of
life is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the
reputation, of accomplishing these ends. But
the world has been egrcgiously deceived by
preparations of it, partly because the drug
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it. but more because many preparations,
pretending TO be concentrated extracts of it,
contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla,
or any thing else.
During late years the public have been mis-
led by large bottles, pretending to give quart
of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar Mos.
of these have been frauds upon the sick, for
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa-
rilla but often no curative properties whatcv-
er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment
has followed the use of the various extracts of
SarSapariila which food the market, until the
name itself is justly dcspiscd, and has become
synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend
to supply such remedy as shall rescue the
name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we think we have ground for
believing it has virtues which are irresistible
by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend
ed TO cure. In order 10 secure their complete
eradication from the system, the remedy should
be judiciously taken according to directions cs
the bottle.
