ton of the country, that the public scarcely need to
be Informed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofutous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies OF our race. Often, this unseen and unfet
tenant OF the organism undermines the constitution,
and invites the attack Of eneeblng fatal diseases
without exciting suspicion of its presence. Again,
1t seems to breed infection throughout the body and
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either the
surface or among the vitals. In the LATTER tuber.
cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows
its presence by eruptiens on the skn foul ulcer
atoms on some part of the body. Hence the occa-
sional use of a bottle of this SarSapdrill0 is adj
visabley even when no active symptoms of disease
appear. Persons afflicted with the following com.
plants generally find immediate relief and, at
length, cure, by the use of this S.4RSAPARIL-

more concealed forms, as Dgspepsia, Dropsy,
Heart Disease, Fits, Epilepsy, Neurnfgia,
and the various UIcerOms affections of the muscu.

Syphilis or Penereal and NcrcuriaE Diseases
are cured by it, though long time is required for
subdulng these obstinate maadies by any medicine.
But long continued use of this medicine will cure
the complaint. Leucorrho'n or Bhifes, Uterine
U1ceratioHS, and Female Diseases, are com
monty soon relieved and ultimately cured by its
purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Drec-
lions for each case are found in our Almanac, sup.

caused by accumuiations of extraneous matters
