Every poison bas it's antidote-Every
 disease has it's cure. a It is known fact thatthe powerful miner- al medicines so often administered in copious doses in Intermittent and Bilious Remittent Fevers are as perilous to the constitution. as the levers themselves. while their operation is generally slow and upcertain, and their ef fects evanecsent. Remedies of this class hazardous under any circumstances, cannot be used with any approach to safety excepi under the directions of a physcan; and in the regions where Fever and Agne, 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 unobtainable. It is O. vious, therefore, that medicine like the Texas Tonic Syrup, prompt ond cer- tain in it's action as a 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 e,se they may exist.
 The common cause of all remittent and intermittent levers is the mephitic yapor or miasma evaporated by heat from the sell, or from the surface of stagnant water and il is usually when the torrid warmth of summer has prostrated the system and rendered il incapable of contending energetically with the disease that the attack comes on. July, August, September and October are the months during with all bilious complaints are most common, and most violent. Ths organs immediately affected by Fever and A gue, and lntermitients and Remittents. are -the Liver, the Spleen, the Stomach and Kid neys. Upon each and all ofthese organs, the Texas Tonic Syrup acts specifically, regula ting and controlling the flow of bile, proven ting or relieving that enlargement of the spleen known as the Ague Cake. strengthening the digestive powers and removing those severe pains of the back which arise from the tor pidity or inflammation of the Kidneys. As it's name indicates, it gives healthy tone to the Viscere, which perform the secretion. circua- ton, and excretion. Instead of inficting shsck upon he internal, as mineral medicines necessarily do, it invigorates and assists nature and seconds with wonderful efforts which she makes to throw off the disease It is not mere palliative that checks or modi- sfes tie symptoms for brief period but q radical remedy that reaches and removes the cause of the disorder.
 Of these facts the inventors of the Texas Tonic Syrup have had ippumerable proofs and they are prepared to establish them by the highest testimony; Medical men of acknowledged eminence prescribe 1t in their private practice, and 1t IS rapidly sdperceuihg all other preparations of it's class throughout the west Southwest and South. No family residing in any section subject to the yisita- tions of Ague and Fever, any bilious com plaint, should be without it, if they desire to escape the penalties of protraeted sickness and its eoncomitant dangers, agonies and expenses.
 IL is not alone for it's curative properties that the Tonic Syrup is to be prized. AS preventive it Is invaluable The virus of disease often lies hidden in the system for months, and even years weakening the vital forces, and slowly. yet surely sapping the foundations ot beslth and life.
 The symptoms of this process appear in ssllow skin. the duh eye, the growing feeble ness of the unconscious victim As soon as these or any other rfo-eshadowings of sickness are observed, such as pains in the small of the back in the left side, or between the shoulders. the Tonic Syrup should be given and it is guaranteed that 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 II is especially recommended to the unacclimatcd settler, as a sure safe guard against Ague and Fever.
