Every poison has it's aniidoie--Every disease has it's cure.
 It is known fact that the powerful miner al medicines so often administered in copious doses in Intermittent and Bilious Remittent Fevers are as perilous to the constitution as the fevcrs themselves, while their operation is generally slow and upcertain, and their cf- fects evanecsent. Remedies of this class, hazardous under any circumstances, cannot be used with any approach to safety cxcep, under tho directions of . physician; and in the regions where Fever and Ague, Bilious Fever. Ohill and Fever. Dumb Aguc and their kindred complaints chiefly prevail, medical men are sometimes few and far between. and medical advice almost unobtainable. Ii is obvious, therefore, that a medicine like the Texas Tonic Syrup, prompt ond esr- tain in its action as . curative. and equally | to be relied on as . preventive. of these dan gerous malsdies--a preparation ss harmless to the constitution as water--must be of price, less value in the valley of the Mississippi, or wherever eise they may exist.
