particular faults and temptations, and the right
way of struggling against them and that tho

The last time they all assembled TO drink tea
In the library, was more like the old family gath

Sidney eraxed Edward out Of his dark crner

one evening and they all sat round the open
window, and talked chcerfully and quietly about
travelling and India, and the prospect Of meet

Charlotte asked questions about their journey

house about mile from the town Of Duus,all in
StafOrdshire. There was very good school at
Dunstall; and Mr.. Grey had arraoged that Sid

risk which he must run in violent attacks oi
this baleful dstemper. This "CunE " expel,
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGul
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first APP
proach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t i
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply foI
a dollar brings it within the reach of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEvEl.
AND AGUE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection
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-
duces 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 Agueis 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 taker
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 moro
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Intermittents, if they avail
themselves of the protection this remedy at
fords.
