Scrofula, or Kings Evil.

Is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiatcd.
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, il
pcrvades 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 faint 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 venercal infection. What.
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending 90 from parents TO childrcn
unto the third and fourth generation !" indeed.
1t seems to he the rod of Him who saws I"
VIII visit the impurities of the fathers upon
their children" ...H
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubcrcles; i'll the glands, swellings and oh
the surface, cruptionS or sores. This foul COR
ruption, which gendcrs in the blood, dcpresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous constt,,-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants. but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of ether diseases: conse-
qucntly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scrofulouS in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
Ill this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and indeed, of all the organs, arise from OF
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofuIous;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by it.
10 cleanse it from the system we must rcnovatc
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.

For the cure of all bilious diseases, impuri
ties of blood, indigestion, liver complaint, sick
headache, fevers, colds. jaundice, dyspepsia, fe-
male complaints, and a general cathartic.

ton of the liver or portal circle these pills
invaluable.
For jaundice, take one or two pills every
night. Should there be loss of appetite, or
til these symptoms are removed.
These pills may be taken in all cases where
an aperient alternative or cathartic is required.
Dyspepsia and liver complaint, with all their
attendant evils, can positively be cured 10y a
persevering use of these pills in connection
with the bitters. When cough exists in con-
ncction with any disease for which these pills
are recommended take the Pectoral Syrup of
