AGUE and FEVER
ChiIIs and Fever.

The proprietor of this celebrated medi-
cine justly claims for it a superiority over
all remedies ever offered to the public for
the safe, certain, speedy, and permanent
cure of Ague and Fever or ChiIIs and Fever,
whether Of short or long standing. He re-
fers to the entire Western and Southwest
ern country to bear him testimony to the
truth Of the assertion, that in no case what
ever viii it fail to cure if the directions are
strictly followed and carried out In a
great many cases a single dose has been suf-
icient for cure, and whole families have
been cured by a single bottle with perfect
restoration Of the general health 1t IS,
however prudent, and In every case more
certain to cure, if its use is continued in
smaller doses for a week or two after the
disease has been checked, more especially in
difficult and long standing cases. Usually,
this medicine viii not require any aid to
keep the bowels in good order should the
patient however, require cathartic medicine
after having taken three or four doses of the
Tonic, single dose of BULLS VEGETA-
BILE FAMILY PILLS will be sufficient.
