THOMPSON'S
Fever and Ague Powders !!
FOR THE
FOR THE
PERMANENT CURE OF CHILLs AND FE-
YER, DUMB AGUE, OR ANY FORM
OF INTERMITTENT FEVERl
The Greatest Discovery Of the Age |

HNHERE are no diseases so facilitating in
il their effects upon the constitution as the
above, and none more difficult to cure by the
usual modes of practice. The Fever and Ague
Powders will effect a cure In cases of the long
est standing, as we'll as prove q preventive in
the forming stages of disease. Being purely
Vegetable, they act with certainty on the dis
case, totally eradic9ting 1t from the system,
and preventing a return at any future period.
Why waste your money and health in trying
every medicine you hear of, when Thompson's 's
Fever and Ague Powders have never failed to
cure the Chlls in any case.
REASONS WHY THEY ONLY SHOULD BE
USED;
Their Reputation Is ESta5lished - Thousands
of testimonials have been received, showing
that these Powders have performed miracles in
curing cases of long standing, many of them
considered hopeless.
There Is no Risk IN Taking Them. = They
contain nothing injurious, and, therefore cause
none of those lingering diseases 30 often the re-
suit of the many nostrums of the day. Physi-
clans recommend them as far superior to Qui-
nine, or any other known remedy for they leave
the system in healthy state, and the patient
beyond the probability of a relapse@
BEWARE OF CoUNTERFEITs. - The
genuine are put up in square tin boxes, with
"Thompson's Fever and Ague Powders"
stamped on the lid, and the signature of
"Thompson g. Crawford" on the wrapper
No others can possibly be genuine.
