Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes yitiated
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending I" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, 81
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders III the blood, depresses
the energies of life, SO that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous conf
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this taint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this serofulous contamination; and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys brain,
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofnlous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fection, and their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must renovate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.
Such a medicine we supply in

Compound Extract Of SarsaparilIa,

the most effectual 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 remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation 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 affec-
tions which arise from it, such as ERUPTIvE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST.. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
ROSE, or ERYsIPELAs, PMpLEs, PUsTULEs,

RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIc and MERcuRIAI Dis
EASES, DRopsY, DYSPEPSIA, IDENTITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA-
TED OR IMpURE BLooD. The popular belief
in in,p,efty Of the blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

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'' expels the miasmatic poison of FEVER
AND AGUE from the system, and prevents the de-
velopment of the disease if taken on the first ap-
proach of its premonitory symptoms. is not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity we 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 protec
ton. A great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and certain
cure of Intermttents is that it contains Quinne
or mineral consequently it produces no qiinisn or
other injurious effects whatever upon the constit
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence of
the miasmatc poison. A great variety of disor-
ders arise from its irritation, among which are
ness, I0othache, Earaehe, Catq,rh, Asthma, Fat
pitation, Painful fectior Of the Spleen, HyStc''-
acs, Pain an the Boaeeks, Cohc, Paralysis and De-
ra,,1en,ent of the Stomach, all of which, when
originating in this cause, put on the Intermittent
type, or become periodical. This "CURE" cxpcls
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 malarious districts If taken occa-
sionally or daily while exposed to the infection,
that will be excretcd from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis
ease Hence it is even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure and few will ever suffer from Inter.
mittents if they avail themselves of the protection
this remedy affords. ef .a ~,

constiparion or Costiveness.

No one of the "many ills flesh is heir to" is
90 nrevalent so little understood, and so much
neglected as Costiveness. Often originating
in carelessness, or sedentary habits; it is re-
garded as slight disorder of two little con-
sequence to excite anxiety, while in reality it
it is the precursor and companion OF many OF
the most fatal and dangerous diseases, and
unless early eradicated it will bring the suffer
er to an untimely grave. Among the hgnter
evils of which costiveness is the usual at
tendant are Headache, Collie, Rheumatism,
Foul Breath, Piles and others of like nature.
while a long train Of frighsful diseases such as
Malignant Fevers, Abcesses, Dysentary, Dlarr-
hea, Dyspepsia, Apoplexy, Epilepsy, Paralysis,
Hysteria, Hypochondi isis, Melancholy and
Insanity, first indicate their presence in the
system by this alarming symptom. Not un-
frequently the diseases named originate in
CONSTIPATION, but take on an Independent ex-
istence unless the cause is eradicated In an
early stage. From all these considerations 1t
follows that the disorder should receive i'm
mediate attention wherever it occurs, and no
person should neglect to get a box OF Cephailc
Pills on the first appearance OF the complaint,
as their timely use will expel the lnsldlous
approaches of Disease and destroy this dan
gerous foe to human life.
GREAr D1scoyERY.-Among the most i'm
important of all the great medical discoveries
of this age may be considered the system OF
vaccination for protection from Small Fox, the
Cephalic Pill for elief of Headache, and the
use of Quinine for the prevention OF Fe7ers
either of which is sure specific, whose bene-
fits will be experienced by suffering humanity
long after their discoverers are forgotten.
