Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Bilious Fever, Dumb Ague, and the long train of disorders following these when neglected. SWEET QUININE is made solely from Peruvian Bark (so is Bitter Quinine,) thefore lt ta of vegetable origin, and not a mineral poison, but,-on the contrary, ls proved to be one of the elements found In the blood of all healthy persons. SWEET QUININE acts as an antidote to, as well as a cure for, Mala? rial or Miasmatic Poison, the absorption of which by the lungs causes Intermittent Fevers, Ac. The only advantage claimed for SWEET QUININE over the use of old Bitter Quinine is the entire ab? sence or that intense, persistent bitterness, which In the latter is an insurmountable obstacle to Its use with most persons, and always with children. SWEET QUININE Is In two forms-in Powder, for the use of Physi? cians and Druggists, and Fluid for use in the family and for the general public. STEARNS, FARR & CO..
