DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROxBURY, MASS.

Has discovered in one of our common
pasture weeds remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula
down to a common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). He has now in his
possession over two hundred certificates
Of its value, all within twenty miles of
Boston.
A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and perfect cure is war
ranted when the right quantity is taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or
Bowels. This is caused by the ducts beipg
stopped, and always disappears in weel;
after taking it.
If the stomach is foul or bilious it will
cause squeamiSh feelings at first.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat
