The proprietor of this celebrated medicine jnstly claims for il superiority over all remedies ever offered to ihe public for the sgfe, certaia, speedy, and permanent cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Feser, whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and Southwestern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the as- sertion, that in no case whatever will it fail to cure. if the directions are strictly followed and carried out, In great many cases q single dose has been sufficient fooa cure, and whole families have been cured by single bottle, With perfect restoration of the gem eral health. It is, however, prudent, and in every more certain to cure, if it's use is continued in smaller doses for week or two after the disease has been checked more es- pecially in difficult and long-sianding cases Usually. this medicine will not require any aid Go keep the bowels in good order; should the patient, however, require a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic. single dose of BULLS VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will be sulh- cient.
