ersSarsaparilla

A compound remedy, in which we have la
bored to produce the most ~effeetual Alternative
that can be made. It is a concentrated extract
of Para Sarsaparil1a, SO combined with other
substances of still greater Alternative power as
to afford an effective antidote for the diseases
~Sarsaparilla is reputed to cure. It is believed
that such a remedy is wanted by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their cure must prove
of immense service to this large class of our
afflicted fellow-citizens. How completely this
compound will do it has been proven by exper-
iment IN many Of the worst cases to be found
of the following complaints
ScRoFULA AND SCRoFUIoUs COMPLAINTS,
ERUPTIoNs N ERUPTIvE DISEASES, ULCERS,
PIMPLEs, BLoTcHEs, JUNIORS, SALT RHEUM,
ScALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AND SYPHILITIC AZ
FECTIoNs, MERcURIAL DISEASE, DRoPsY, NEU-
RALG1A OR Tic D~oULoUREUx, DEBILITY, DYs-
PERSIA N INDIGESTION, ERYsIPELAs, ROSE
OR ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE, and indeed the whole
class of complaints arising from lMPUR1rY OF
THE BLOOD.
This compound will be found a great pro-
moter of health, when taken in the spring, to
expel the foul humors which tester in the
blood at that season Of the year. By the time
~ expulsion of them many ranking disorders
are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by
the aid of this remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous
sores, through which the system will strive to
rid 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 in pimples, eruptions,
or sores; cleanse it when you find it is OBJ
structed and sluggish in the veins cleanse ii
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. Keep the
blood healthy, and all is well; but with this
pabulum of life disordered, there can be nc
lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery Of
life is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, tn
reputation of accomplishing these ends. Blu
the world has been egregiously deceived b,
preparations of it, partly because the dru,
alone has not all the virtue that is claimet
for it, but more because many preparations
pretending to be concentrated extracts of il
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 a quar-
of Extract of S~arsaparilla for one dollar. Mos
of these have been frauds upon the sick, fe
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa
rilla, but often no curative properties whatel
er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointme1
has followed the use of the various extracts
Sarsaparilla which food the market, until Il
name itself is Justly despised, and has becon
synonymous with imposition and cheat. ST.
we cali this compound Sarsaparilla, and inter
to supply such a remedy as shall rescue Il
name from the load of obloquy which res
upon it. And we think we have ground f
believing it has virtues which are i~rresistib
} by the ordinary run of the diseases it is nten
ed to cure. In order to secure their compile
eradication from the system, the remedy shou
be judiciously taken according to directions
the bottle.
