A CLEAR lNFERENCE.-ft IS too true that most of the patented medical preparations thrown on the market emanate from men who can lay no just claim to professional educa- ton, and who are, consequently, totally un- qualified to originate a really valuable prepara- tiOn. But we have the pleasure of stating that we know of one exception, at least to this rule We refer to Dr. Kennedy, of Rondout, N. Y., the discoverer and proprietor of the popular medicine entitled the Favorite Reme dy. He is not a stranger in this region of the country, but regular and favorably known physician and surgeon of Rondout where he has practiced his profession for eight years with degree of success which has surprised not only the general community, but also other members of the medical fraternity. Dr. Ken nedy is a graduate of the Collegeof Physicians and Surgeons of the city of New York, and was for three years surgeon in the United States army during our late war. He has also been member for several years of the Ulster County Medical Society. AS a surgeon he has no superior in the State-being singularly bold, skllful and unprecedentedly successful in his operations. Is it not fair inference. we ask, that when surgeon, who has operated in SO many vital cases and never lost one ofthem, assures the people that the Favorte Remedy purifes the blood, thereby curing Scrofula and all Scrofulous Affections, Bilious Disorders, Kidney Complaints, Constipation of the Bow els, as well as all that large class of ills pecu- liar to women-that they simply take him at hls word and are cured according to promise In fact the Doctor himself does not hesitate to admit that part of his success in surgery is due to the use of the Favorite Remedy in the after treatment of the patient, which preuented the return of the abnormal formations removed by the knife by giving tone and strength to the system of his patients which had become de- bilitated and weakened by disease.
 In conclusion, we hope that no one who may be suffering from any of the diseases for which the Favorite Remedy is recommended will hesitate moment to secure bottle and test the truth of what we herein allege. We are willing to pledge our veracity for it that none will be disappointed or deceived.
 rg-Dr. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is now for sale by all our druggists at one dollar a bottle. 2-4w
