Dr H. NJ. purintou.

the renowned Lung Physician, and tor all
chronic diseases, will visit Rock Island on
Friday, May Sd, and remain one week at the
Rock Island House. DIR. Purinton, who has
created so profound a sensation by his won
derful power of discriminating the nature of
all internal disease from the respiration of
the lungs, and beating of the heart, without
you being required to give your symptoms :;
and who also has the ability to treat the
same with degree of success altogether un.
paralleled by rejecting the use of all poison
Gus drags and minerals, using nothing but
medicines prepared from vegetable remedies,
solicits your attention to an examination of
your case, which will be most cheerfully
given in all cases free of charge. 1t is not
expected that all, out of the many which he
examines can be cured, although there are
but few, comparatively speaking, but what
may be benefited. To such, it is ever his
privilege to give advice free ; and, whenever
reason stands to Judge that cure can be
performed you will be put under treatment
from one week to three months.

1t is quite likely that there may be some

A plain statement of facts. inherited Scrofula,
and many of my relations have died of it. In
1889 my case was frightful. Tumors and ulcers
spread until in lS42, under the advice of my ply
sicians went to Avon Springs. i received no
beneft--tried every medicine and did everything l
could. had to rest my arm on a cushion, and had
not been able to raise it to my head for over year.
The discharge from two ulcers was nearly pint q
day. Amputation was recommended, but pro-
nounced dangerous. / could not sleep, and my
suferings were intolerable. A friend brought me
an English physician who applied a salve with
which he said he had accomplished extraordinary
cures in the hospitals in England 1t commenced

aperfect and entire cure. 1t is now lS4e. 1t is

A GRAND EPOCH IN MRDICINE,


DIR. Maggiel is the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach. and paraiyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the ulaerat-
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills, and cures the most virulent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DR.. MaggiePs Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of Maggiel's Pills rectifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in n
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous. So g.
In fact Maggiel's Bilious. Dyspeptie and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scads, Chilblains Cuts, and all abrassions
of the skin, MaggePs Salve is infailible.

AN EFFRcrUAL WoRa MEDIcINE.-BROWN'S
VERM1FUGE C0MFITS, Or Worm Lozenges.
Much sickness, undoubtedly, with children and
adults, attributed to other causes, is oecasioned
by worms. The "Vsrmifuge Comits," al
though eftectusl in destroying worms, can 90
no possible injury to the most delicate child.
This valuable combination has been success
fully used by physicians, and found to be safe
ana sure in eradicating worms, hurtful to
children.
Children having Worms require immediate at
tention, neglect of the trouble often pro-
longed sickness.
Symptoms of Worms in children are often over
looked. Worms in the stomach and bowels cause
irritation, which can be removed only by the use
of a sure remedy. The combination of ingredi-
ents used in making Browns ''Vermifuge Com
fits is such as to give the best possible effect with
safety,
