If VEGETISE will relieve pain. cleanse purify and
cure such diseases restoring the patient O perfect
health after trying deredt physicians many remedies
suffering for years, Is IL not conclusive proof II you
are sufererl you can be cured? Why IL this medi-
cine performing such great cures? IL works in the
blood in the circulating fluid. 1t can truly be called
the Great Blood Partfer. The pcatsource Of diseae
orr yinates in the blood: and medicine that does
not act directly upon it, to purify aud renoyae, has
any just claim upon public attention. When the
blood becomes leless and stagnant, either from

uar Diet from any other cause, the NE9ETINE will
renew the blood carry off the putrd humors, cleanse
the stomach, regulate the bowels, and mpart tone
of vigor to the whole body. The conviction is In the
public mind well in the medical profession, that
the remedi supplied by the Vegetable Kingdom are
SAFE more successful, in the cure OF disease,
than mineral medicines. VEGETINE is composed OF
roots barks and herbs. 1t is pleasant 10 take and is
perfectly safe to give an infant. In ScrCfula The

been a shovel OF dirt npturned as yet to carry out
the provisions OF the charter. Becoming impatient
at the delay, Mr.. Byrne instituted q suit In the

complaint, and an argument, which was reported
