It is a known fact that the powerful miner- al medicines so often administered Dpious doses in Intermittent and Bilious TtfHittent Feycrs are as pcrlous to the constitution as the levers themselves, while their operation is generally slow and upceftain, and their eff fects evanecsent Remedies Of this class, hazardous under any circumstances. cannot be used with any approach to safety except under the directions of a physician; and in the regions where Fever aud Ague, Bilious Fever, Chill and Fever Dumb Ague and their kindred complaints chiefly prevail, medical men are sometimes few and far between, and medical advice almost unobtainabe. It is obvious. therefore, that medicine like the Texas TOnsc syrup, prompt ond cer- tain in it's action as curative, and equally to be relied on as preventive, of these dan gerous maladies--a preparation as harmless to the constitution as water--must be of price less value in the valley of the Mississippi, or wherever else they may exist.
 The common cause of all remittent aud intermittent levers is the mepbitic vapor or miasma evaporated by heat from the sell, or from the surface of stagnant water and it is usually when the torrids~armth of summer has prostrated the system and rendered. it incapable of contendin& energetically with the disease that the attack comes on. July, August, September and October ere the months during with all hillious complaints are most common, and most violent. The organs immediately affected by Fever and Ague, ard InterIuittents and Remittents, are the Liver, the Spleen, the Stomach and Kid neys. Upon each and all oftbese organs, the Texas Tonic Syrup acts specifically, regula- ting and controlling the flow of bile, proven ting or relieving that enlargement of the spleen Al r.f.. l. ,,r,.r digestive powers and removing those severe pains of the back which arise from the tor pidity or inflammation of the kidneys As its name indieates, it gives healthy tone to the Viscere, whsrh perform the secretion, circula- tion, and exetetion. Instead of nfieting q shock mon the internal, as mineral medicines necessarily do, it invigorates and assists nature and seconds with wonderful efforts which she makes to throw of the disease. It is not a mere.palliative that checks or modi- fies the symptoms for brief period hni q radical remedy that reaches and re:.,oves the cause of the disorder.
 Of these facts the inventors of the Texas Tonic Syrup have had innumerabe proois and they are prepared .o cs'rh'ish them by the highest testimony Medical men ef acknos ledged eminence prescribe il in their private practice, and II IS rapidly supercedng

 It is nc. alone for its curative properties ,lal tle Tonic Syrup is to be prized. As a preventive il is invaluable The virus of disease often lies hidden in the system for months, aud even years weakening the vital forces, and slowly, yet surely sapping the foundations of health and life.
 The symptoms of this process appear in sallow skin, the dull eye, the growing feebleSS meas of the nnconscious victim As soon as these or any other fo-eshadowipgs of siekness are observed, such as pains in the small of tho back in the left side or between the shoulders. the Tonic Syrup should be given and It is guaranteed that n course of this remedy will, in all cases, remove every germ of bilious disease from the system, restore the natural color to the complexion, remove all local pain, and renew the bodily vigor of the individual IL is especially recommended to the unacclimatcd settler, as sure safe guard against Ague and Fever.
