Compound Extract Of Sarsaparilla,

the most efectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active remedlals that have
been discovered for the cxpurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure of
not only Scrofula, but also those other atfec-
tons which arise from it, such as ERurTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES ST.. ANrHoNy's FInE,
RosE, or ERYsIrELAs, pIMrLEs, PrsTuLEs,

in fa,p,rity ~ the blood is founded in truth,
for scrofala Is degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rlla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

Ague Cure,
roR THE SPEEDY CURE OF

Interna ittent Fever, or Fever and Ague,
Remittent Fever, ChHl Fever, Dumb
Agne, Periodical Headache, or bilious
for the whole class Of d tseases originate
ting In hillary dcranRcment,c caused by
the Malaria OF Miasmattc Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community
remedy which, while it cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity Such remedy H. invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" expels the miasmatic poison of FEVER
AND A6UE from the system, and prevents the de-
velopment Of the disease If taken on the first APP
proaeh of its premonitory symptoms. ltisnot only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints. but also the cheapest he large
quantity supply for dollar bringsi it within the
reach OF every body and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AGrE prevails, every body should
have it and it freely both for cure and protee
ton. A great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the, speedy and certain
cure of Intermitcnts Is that it contains Quinne
or mineral, consequentlyit produces no quinism or
other Injurious effects whatever upon the constitu-
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy If
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatie poison. A great variety of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, RheNmaftsm, Gora. Headache, Blind
,,ess Toothaehe, Eafaehe, Cafdrvh, Asthma, Fat
pitation, Painful 4 friction Of tho Spleen, Hyste,-
ics, PAIN IN the Boieeis, Cole, Paralysis and De-
raaqenicnt Of the Stomach, al OF which, when
originating in this cause, put on the intermittent
type, or become periodical. This CrRE" expes
the poison from the blood, and Consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the maarious districts. If taken occa-
sinnaly or daily while exposed TO the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity 10 ripen into dis
use. Henci. it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure and few will suiler from Inter
mittents if they avail themselves of the protection
4 this remedy affords.
