p~oisons.
AS its name implies, It does Cure, and does not

substance whatever, it in nowise injuries any pa
tent. The number and importance OF its cures
in the ague districts, are literally beyond account,
and we believe without a parallel in the history
of Ague medicine. Gun pride is grati1ed by the
acknowledgements we receive of the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other rem

Unacclmated persons, either resident IN, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be
protected by taking the AGUE CURE daily.
For LtUer Complaints, arising from torpid
