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

no Quinine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duccs 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. g.a
Fever and Ague is 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

Will be considerably larger in Noyem-
Der than those given above. The tide
Of Republican enthusiasm is rising fast
