 A PLENTIFUL supply of pure blood IA is essential to animal life as light, heat, and genial showers are to the vegetable kingdom. When the proper circulation of the vital fluid is imped ed, sickness is the inevitable consequence, the se- cretions become unhealthy, the liver becomes clog ged with impure bile, which, forced into the sys- tenn, vitiates and inhames the blood, engendering scrofula and cutaneous and billiary disorders The experience of sixteen years has fully established the his h reputation of this invaluable medicine; it's curative powers have been thoroughly tested in long standing and obstinate cases, with such inva- rable success as to call forth the most ,ttering commentators from eminent phy sicians through out the country.
