the pant ana produce an eAtfAct from IL upon
scientific principles, by a cold process, until |.
having become convinced Of the wonderful
medical virtues Of this little weed, investigated
it's properties and made an extract from the
fresh herb, by a cold process-using no heat
81 all, but bringing out it's juices, oils and
volatile properties complete and unimpairtd d.
II this remedy has heretofore been valuable,
when prepared in the most crude manner,
from the long dried herb and by the applica-
ton Of heat, that destroyed so much of its
virtues, reasoned that it must, when properly
prepared, by a cold process and from the
freshly dried herb, prove wonderfully efhca-
cious and potent remedy for human suffering.
And can assure the people, upon my honor,
as professional man. that in its use, since
thus preparing it, my most sanguine expecta-
tions have been more than realized. have
found it to contain medicinal properties which
sleeping in water could not bring out at all. as
they are resinous principles. With my Ex-
tract, containing all these medical properties
unimpaired, have been enabled to produce
most astonishing remedial effects. By much
study, large experience in prescribing this
and other medicines, and very close observa-
ton, have been enabled to compound and
combine with the simple extract of Smart
Weed extracts Of other medical herbs and
roots, that greatly improve its power and use
fulness, both as an internal and external RENE
dy-besides they so flavor and modify it as to
remove its pungent, smarty taste, and render
il a pleasant remedy for both adults and chill
dren. The greatest difficulty that experience
in the way Of introducing this most valuable
remedy to the public is the fact that Smart
Weed is such common and unpretending
looking little herb that people are apt to think
that it cannot possess any great or valuable
medical properties. Had l prepared my Ex-
tract of Smart-Weed put it up and labeled it
with some great name, and told the people
halt a of xrbi I'D
collected in Africa by the Arabs, carried across
the Sahara Desert on the backs of camels,
and brought across the Atlantic Ocean for my
special use, and that its ingredients were
therefore very expensive, have no doubt that
some would have been thereby inspired with
greater confidence in it. But prefer to deal
honestly with the people and tell them that
the chief ingredient of my Compound Extract
is the modest little plant seen growing by the
roadside, in all parts of North America, and
known as Smart-Weed I believe that God
has caused to grow, in each climate and re-
gion, those medicinal plants best calculated
for the cure of the diseases that prevail in the
section of country where those plants are
found-that " the leaves were for the healing
Of the nations" and that the fewer far-fetched
remedies we employ the better, if we would
thoroughly investigate and understand those
We have at home. So far as Smart-Weed has
been employed by the medical profession, it
has won golden opinions, notwithstanding the
fact that heretofore they have had only very
imperfect preparation of it to use owing to
heat being always employed in extracting its
properties. A celebrated medical author says !:
" A friend of ours had child dangerously i'll
with Summer Complaint. He had employed a
great variety of the usual means for relief but
all appeared unavailing. The child was finally
given mart-Weed and it was entirely success
full 1t arrested the vomiting and purging in a
short time, and without the aid Of other medi-
cine entirely restored the little patient" AS a
remedy for Dysentery Cor Bloody Flux) have
never seen my Extract of Smart-Weed equaled,
vet have used all the most modern and ap-
proved medicines usually employed in that
| disease. The Smart-Weed is rendered still
| more eficacious in all Bowel Complaints.
Cramps and Pains in the stomach, by reason of
the Jamaica Ginger, which, with other valuable
| ingredients, is compounded with the Smart
| Weed in making my Extract-hence the name
| Compound Extract of Smart-Weed. The Gin
ger and other ingredients not only add greatly
| to the value of the Smart-Weed as a remedy
for internal administration and render it more
pleasant to take by imparting an agreeable
flavor to it, but also enhance its value as an ex-
| ternal application. In all cases of Diarrh9a,
whether acute or chronic, in young or DID, as
well as in Cholera and Cholera Infantum, the
| symptoms of which are severe vomiting anc
purging, feeble pulse, with cold or clammy
skin, my Extract of Smart-Weed will give
almost immediate relief and speedily effec
a cure. All authors writing upon Smart-Wee(
speak particularly about dose Of it producing
a warmth and peculiar tingling sensation
throughout the system. This is especially thu
case when Extract is given, and indicates
perfect afousing OF the whole system, as i
from inaction and sleep, and resembles shocI
of electricity, only that it is more lasting il
effect. The whole system and it's variou
functions are aroused to perform their norma
functions by its electrical effect upon tn
nervous system. Hence, too its great an
mastery control over Rheumatic and Neuralgi
Affections for which it is particularly advise
by medical authors and in which it has per
formed remarkable cures 1t should be use
in these cases both externally and internally
Being great Diaphoretic, or Sweating Ned
cine, aids greatly in relieving pain, but. in
dependently of that, itpossesses great anodyn
or soothing properties, that render it far ahea
of any Pain Killer (so-called) Instan
Relief" Golden Relief" or any other pal
remedy that has ever been offered to tn
public. Besides, it is perfectly harmless
which is not the case with many preparation

asked for or obtained upon it, and it's il
gradients are no secret-an that l claim
that, as an educated and skilled analytical an
practical Chemist, have devised superic
process for bringing out and obtaining ii
most valuable properties of the plants fro
which my Compound Extract is made. This
have done only after great expense in erectin
machinery for grinding, pressing, and percol'
