Ague Cure,
ron THE SPEEDY CURE OF

intermittent Fever, or Fever and hgue,
Remittent Fever, ChilI Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, ntad Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases Originate
ing in hillary arrangement, caused by
the Malaria of Miasmatic 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 is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
"CuRE" cXpels the miasmatic poison Of FEVER
AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de-
v0lopment of the disease, if taken the first APP
proach Of its premonitory symptoms. Itisnot only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity supply for dollar brings it within the
reach of every body; and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every body should
have it and use it freely both for cure and proiec-
ton. A great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of lnermttents is that it contains no Quinine
or mineral, consequently it produces no qunsm or
other injurious ELECTS whatever upon the constitu-
don. Those cured by it are left healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the lniesmaic poison. A great variety of disor-
dcrs arise from its irritation, among which are
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blind
ncSS, IOOth0che, Eardcbe, C0tmTh, dSthnd, Pat
pitatioR, PdintM affection Of the Spleen, HySter-
tcS, Pam IN He BOioCiS, cote, Paralysis and De-
r0R9Cn,cW Of he Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the intermittent
type, or become periodical. This "CunE" cxpels
the poison from tho blood, and consequently cures
them all alike. 1t is AN invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarous districts. If taken occa-
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be eXcrecd from the system and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to rpen into dis
ease. Hence it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will ever suffer from Inter
mittcnts if they avail themselves of the protection
this remedy affords.
