A Great Spring and Summer
INVIGORATOR AND RESTORER.
NOW is THE TIME TO CLEANSE OUT
In those rERILOUS SPOTS, Pimplcs,
corrupt sores, which POLLUTE the LIFE
of the BLOOD, and render your body q
loatheaome thing. They are the precur-
sors of diseased blood, and will assume
much moro formidable shape if allowed
to go on unchecked. The QUEENS DE-
LIGHT, the only real blood purifier that
has ever been invented, as thousands will
to-day attest, is offered to the afflicted as
positive remedy for all diseases flowing
from a vitiated condition OF the system.
THE LIFE OF THE FLESH is PURE

the great hygienic law, WITHOUT PURE
BLOOD NO FLESH Is FREE FROM Dis
EASE. The Pale and Shrunken Forms.
Yellow Faces. Weak Stomachs, Diseased
Livers, Crippled Rheumatics, Nervous
Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptio Victims Of
Headache, so common in this country, is
owing entirely to the humors of the blood.
Very many other diseases may be traced to
bad blood, Scrofula or Kings Evil, Erysi-
pelas, Exauthema or EleYure, q rash or
eruption on females; Blotches, letter,
Goitre or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and Sy-
philitic Sores, Strumous Ulcers, &c.
These cannot be cured without purifying

is no other blood purifier that will accom-
pish such positive and extraordinary cures
as Heinitsh's Queens Delight. You may
take barrel of extract Sarsaparilla, and
still you will not be cured; and, as a proof
OF 1T, look around and you will observe the
country, throughout its length and
breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa-
be blood purifiers. and yet we see to-day
more evidence of impurity of the blood
than ever. Why is this2 Simply because
these extracts and Sarsaparillas are worth
less medicines.
The Queens Delight is a new compound,
and is now the great blood medicine; sane
toned by the profession, patronizcd by the
highest dignitaries of the land, endorsed
by everybody.
In the brief period of twelve months,
over 5000 cases have been treated so sue.
cessfully as to entitle it to be the wonder
of the age.
For debility, prostration, nervousness,
mental depression, impaired digestion,
loss or appetite, restlesness, want OF vital
force. Low spirits; it is more invigorat-
ing and strengthening than all the COM
pounds of bark or bitters. Az a liver
invigoratOr, it is OF inestimable value. AS
stimulant, it is safer and surer than all
the rum and whiskey tonics of tho day,
and if you value your life and health a
lants to the grave and use the Queens
Delight. Ask for Heinitsh's Queens De-
light. This is not the Extract of Stellin-
gia or Queens Delight, nor is it Com
pound Syrup of Queens Delight, or Sarsa-
parilla and Queens Delight, but simply
Heinitsh's Queens Delight is tho trade
