Compound Extract of SarsapariIla,

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 remedals 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 aifcc-
tons which arise from il, such as ERurrivn
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANTHoNY's FIRE,
ROSE, or EnysrPELAs, PIMrLEs, PusTuLEs,

indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITA
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in I" iD,pmity ofhe blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is 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.
