The Latest and Most Important Discovery
Of the Nineteenth Century.

NIo MANS NAME IS MORE INTIMATELY CON-
neced with the history Of the Materia Nedca Of the
United States favorably known pioneer IN
medical discovery than that Of JOHN BULL Of Louis
vile Ky. His inimsble preparation OF sarsspsria has
long stood at the head Of the various compounds OF that
valuable drug. His compound Pectorsl Of Wild Cherry
has become a household word throughout the West and
South; and his Worm Lozenges in less than year after
their introduction attained reputation as widespread
the continent Of North America. But the crowning
glory o. his life remains be attained in his latest dis
covery OF rather combination, for be does not CLAIM to
have been Of CEDRON which is the basis
Of the Bitters offered the public That honor be-
longs TO the native inhabitants OF Central America 10
whom virtues have been known for more than two
hundred years Armed with it, the Indian bids defiance
TO deadly malaria and handles without fear The
most venomous Serpenis. II is belief with them that
while there breath left in the body the Cedron potent
to cure, no matter what the disease may be.
While DIR. Bull is not prepared TO indorse this exrava-
giant preenSion he Is nevertheless satisfied from tnor-
ough OF the evidence relating to its virtues
that remedy and preventive for all diseases arising
from exposure either TO changes Of weather and climate
or to the masmac influences, it stands without rival
and Justly the reputation has so long enjoyed
