TONIC SYRUP,
A rapid and never failing cure for
Fever and Ague, or ChilIs and Fever

II Is a well known fact that the powerful miner.
al medicines frequently administered in copious
doses in Intermittent aud Bilious Remittent Pe-
yer. are perilous TO the sttution the dig
eases themselves, while their operation Il general.
IL slow and uncertain, aud theft effects evanescent
Remedies of this class, hazardous under any cir
eums,ances cannot be used with any approach to
safety, except under the direction OF physician
and in the regions where Fever and Ague. Billous
Fever Chill Fever, Dnmb Ague, and their kindred
complaints chiefly prevail, medical men are some
times few and far between, and medNal advice al
most Gnobtainable. Ii is obvious therefore that
a preparation like the Texas Tonic Syrup, prompt
and certain in its action as a curative, ard equally
to be relied upon as preventive of these danger
GUS maladies-a preparation as harmless 10 the
constitution as water must be Of priceless value
ia the valley of the Mississippi, or wherever else
they may exist.
The common cause of all rehnittent and inter.
mttent fevers is the mephitc vaPor OF masma
eraporated by heat from the soil, or from the sur
face ofstagnant water; and it is usually when the

getically with disease, that the attack comes on.
July, August, September and October are the
months during which all billion. complaints are
most common, and most violent. The organs i'm
mediately Affected by Fever and Ague. aud Inter
mttents aud Renittents are the Liver tie Spleen,
the Stomach and Kidneys. Upon each and all Of
these organs. the Texas Tonic Syrup acts specif.
eally. regulating aud controlling the flow Of bile
preventing 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 torpidiy or
Inflammation Of the Kidneys. As its name i'm

perform the functions of secretion, circulation aud
excretion Instead ofiniictng shock upon the
internal organism, as mineral medicines necessa-
rily do. il invigorates and assists nature and sec
onls with wonderful effect the efforts which The
makes to throw off the disease. 1t is not mere
palliative that checks or modifes the symptoms
for brief period, but radical remedy that reaches
and removes the cause of the disorder.
OF these facts the inventors and proprietors of
the Texas Tonic Syrup have had innumerable
proofs and they are prepared to establish them by
the highest testimony; Medical men Of acknowl.
edged eminence prescribe it in their private prac
tice, and it is rapidly supereeding all other pre-
parations ofits class, throughout the West, South
west and South. No family residing in any sec
ton subiec to the visitations of Ague and Fever
or any bilious complaint, should be without it, if
they desire to escape the penalties OF protracted
sickness and its concomitant dangers, agonies and
expenses.
1t is not alone for its curative properties that the
Tonic Syrup is to be priced. As preventive it 10
