s. Speaking OF those diseases and diseases arising
from the excess of mercury he states that no reme
dy is equal to the Extract OF Sarsapara its power
is extraordinary, more so than any other drug am
acquainted with. 1t is, in the strictest sense, a
tonic with this invaluable attribute, that it is ap-
plicable to state of the system so sunken and yet
so irritable renders other substances OF the tonic
class unavailable or injurious.

II. T. HELMBOLD will remark in conclusion,
that his remedies the result OF long and careful
study. The Fluid Extracts have been before the
public twenty years; the sale OF them in that time
proves their value All have been benefited by

UNSURPASSED by any Medicament In the Dlspen-
satory of the United States, not excepting single
HERB, ROOT, PLANT, or scientific preparation.

never patented a single one.

exist In the minds OF many against my Preparations

ALL STAND ON THEIR MERITS.
The Pill have thought of offering to the afflicted
for ten years.
They are now perfect, and shall stake my time
money, and fame on their effectiveness. The in
viting style in which the Pill itself is made the bot
tie, label, wrapper-all show with what care they
have been prepared. After examination no Eng
lsh OF French preparation will show greater care
and am really proud OF them.
Instead of the nauseous-lOoking, carelessly-pre-
pared Pills vended generally ana put u2 in wooden
boxes, and made generally or offered by those
having no experience as physicians, druggists, or
manufacturers OF medicines, test the medicine
offered 10y your obedlent servant,
