So wide is the field of its usefulness, and so
numerous are the cases of its cures, that almost
every section of country abounds in persons
publicly known. who have been restored from
alarming and even desperate diseases of the
lungs by its use When once tried, its superior
iy over every other medicine of its kind is too
apparent 10 escape observation, and where its
virtues are known, the public no longer hesitate
what antidotc to employ for the distressing and
dangerous affections of the pulmonary organs
that arc incidcn: to our climate. While many
inferior remedies thrust upon the community
have failed and been discarded, this has gained
friends by every trial, conferred benefits on the
afflicted they can never forget, and produced
cures too numerous and too remarkable to be
forgotten.

Headache, and Bilious Fevers; indeed
for the whole Glass Of Diseases origi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of miasnatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the nc
ccsSities OF the American people than a sure ana
safe cure for Fever and Aguc. Such Il remedy
we are now enabled to offer, with Il perfect Ger
tainty that it will eradicate the disease, and with
assurance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents tins dis
order must be of immense service in the commu-
mites where it prevails. Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
lie must run in violent attacks OF this balciul
diStemper. This "CUEE cXpcls the MAS
matte poison of FEVER AND AGUE from the
system, and prevents the Development OF the
disease, If taken on the first approach oil ITS pre-
monitory symptoms. Ii Is not only the best
remedy ever yet discovered for this class OF coni-
plants, but also the cheapest. The large guam
tity we supply for IL dollar brings it within the
reach of every body and in bilious districts,
where FEVER AND ACrE prevails, every body
should have it, aud use it freely, both for cure
and protection. 1t is hoped this price will place
it within the reach Of all-tIIc poor as well as the
rich. A great superiority of this remedy over
any other ever discovered for the speedy and
certain cure of Intcrmittcnts is, that IT contains
no Quininc or mineral, consequently it produces
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 dis
ease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. y great variety Of dis
orders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ness, Toothachc, Earachc. Catarrll, Asthma,
Palpitation. Painful Affection of the Spleen,
Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels. Collie. Paralysis,
and arrangement of the Stomach, all of which,
when originating in this cause, put on the inter-
mittcnt type, or become periodical. This "CuRE'
expcls the poison from the blood, and consc-
qucntly cures them all alike. 1t is an ~inyalua-
bic protection to immigrants, and persons tray
cling or temporarily residing in the malarious
districts. If taken occasionally, or daily, while
exposed to the Infection, that will he cxcrctrd
from the system, and cannot accumulate in suf-
ticicnt quantity to ripcn into disease. Hence it
is even more valuable for protection than cure,
and few will ever suffer from lntcrnittcnts, if
they avail themselves Of the protection this rem
edy affords.
