Ague and Fever,
OR CHILL!S AND FEVER.

The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly
claims fo- it a superiority over all remedies
offered to the public for the safe. certain, spec
dy and permanent cure OF Ague and Feyvr, or
Chills and Fever, whether of short or long stand
ing. He refers 10 the entire Western and South
erH country 10 bear him testimony to the truth of
the assertion that IN no whatever will it fail
to if the directions are strictly followed and
carried out In great many cases a single dose
has been sufficient for cure, and whole families
have been cured by a single bottle with perfect
restoration Of the general health. Ii Is. however.
prudent. and in every more certain Of cure, if
its use l. continued in smaller doses for week OF
two after the disease has been checked, more es-
pecialIy in difficult and long standing cases Usu-
ally tbs medicine will not require any aid to keep
the bowels in good order Should the patient
however require cathartic medicine, after having
taken three or four doses OF the tonic, single
dose Of Bulls Vegetable Family Pills will be suff
