Compound Pectoral of wind Cherry

has become household word throughout the
West and South and his Worm Lozenges, in less
than year after their introduction, attained a
reputation wide spread as the continent of
North America. But the browning glory of his
lite remains to be attained in his latest discovery,
or rather combination; for he does not claim to
have been the discoverer of CEDR0N, which is the
basis OF the bitters new offered to the public.
That honor belongs to the native inhabitants of
Central America, to whom its virtues have been
knewn for more than two hundred years. Armed
with it, the Indian bids defiance to the most dead
ly malaria and handles without fear the most ven
omous serpents. II is belief with them that
while there is breath left In the body, the Cedron
IS potent to cure, no matter what the disease Ray
be.
While DIR. Bull is not prepared to indorse this
extravagant pretension, he is nevertheless salts
he'd from thorough examination of the evidence
relative to Its virtues, that a remedy and pre-
tentative for all diseases arising from exposure,
either to the changes of weather and climate or to
the miasmatic Influences, it stands without a ri
val, and justly deserves the reputation it has SO
long enjoyed in Central America and the West In
dies. In
