SCOVILL'S
& Stilling;ia,
BLOOD AND LIVER SYRUP !

Sarsaparilla is Tropic.l Root too well
known as one of the best antidotes we pos
sess for Scrofulous Complaints to need COM
mendation. But as Stilingia is an article OF
more recent use in Scrofulous affections, we
give below the statement of
DIR. Il. III. FROST,
In the Southern Journal of Medicine and
Pharmacy. He says 1T will complete the
cure of alterations of the Pala'e and Throat,
and mucous membrane of the Nose, Skin, and
other parts. 1t will etface the Blotches, Foul
Spots, Stains, etc, which in constitution of
this character SO frequently occur from slight
irritation, or which remain after the ulcera-
tons have healed. 1t will remove the NOR
bid conditions of the Fluids and Solids which
disposes every injury, however slight, to de-
generate with a fostering. painful, scabby ul-
Ger. 1t will in short, so improve the diges-
tive and assinEilative operations of the sySem,
that a more healthy blood and more renewed
fibre will be substituted for the defective con-
ditions of one and the other, and thus fully
support the character of these medicines for
being essentially Alternative" Also state
ment of
DR.. BLACK,
published in the Cincinnati Eclectic Medical
Journal, i'm which he says After giving it
a fair trial in several forms of disease, | am
convinced that, rs n general Alternative, ii has
no superior in the matera medica. Since last
March, have treated about thirty five cases
OF syphilis without single failure when the
patient gave me anything like fair trial.
Scovill's Sarsaparilla and Stillingia,
Is a preparation which is compounded upon
scientific principles, and with great care. by
one thoroughly acquainted with the medical
qualities and effects of each article separately
considered, as well as the whole in its com
bRcG state.
MR.. w. :. MERRILL.
of Cincinnati, one of the oldest and most reli-
able druggists Of that city, makes the follow
ing statement
- We have been acquainted with the forinu-
la of Mcssrs Seovills & Co.'S Compound Syr-
mp of Sarsaparilla and Stillngia, and it has
been made under our supervision. The ingre-
dents are entirely of vegetable origin the
virtues are extracted in great measure by
the vapor of alcohol. No mineral substance
enters into the composition"
The formula of the preparation of the above
will be forwarded to physicians or Druggists
on application.
